All Chapters of Ruin Me, Alpha Step-Daddy : Chapter 1 - Chapter 6

Chapter TwoHazel’s POV I heard her before I even opened my eyes.Singing.Loud, off-key, and completely unbothered about the fact that it was barely past seven in the morning. I lay still for a second, staring at the water-stained ceiling, trying to figure out if I was dreaming. My mother didn’t sing. My mother didn’t do anything in the morning except groan, reach for whatever bottle was closest, and go back to sleep.I sat up slowly.She was standing in front of the cracked mirror we kept propped against the wall, dancing while she applied mascara. Her hair was done …actually done, the bleached blonde freshly washed and falling past her shoulders in soft waves that made her look almost put together. She had on a fitted wrap dress that showed off how tall and slim she actually was underneath all the chaos.I blinked.If you didn’t know her, you might stop and look twice. She had good bones. Long legs, sharp cheekbones, the kind of face that turned heads before the drinking took its

Chapter FourHazel’s POV My heart slammed against my ribs when Lucas said the words. Drake. My mate was Drake. For the first time in forever, something good punched through all the crap in my life.

He pushed me back with one strong arm, shielding me like I was something worth protecting.“Stay right there,” he ordered, voice low and dangerous.I clutched the bottom of his t-shirt, my legs still shaky from everything that happened tonight. The door burst open before he could reach it. Drake stormed in first, lip already curled. Lucas hung back with two other pack guys, their eyes wide when they spotted me standing there in nothing but Creed’s oversized shirt that barely covered my ass.Drake laughed, mean and sharp. “Look at this. Hand her over, Creed. She’s still pack business after that public rejection. You can’t just claim pack pussy like it’s yours.”Creed didn’t flinch. He stepped forward, shoulders broad, tattoos flexing under the low light. “She’s mine now. Get the fuck off my land before I make you.”The air got thick. Lucas wouldn’t even look at me.
