Willow’s POV

Hela was walking toward the ring, her blade still at her hip, and her usual flat expression, and walking beside her was the green-eyed warrior who had said my name.

He was smiling again.

Hela noticed me as she passed the edge of the ring.

She didn't say anything. She just raised one eyebrow very slightly, then she looked forward again and stepped into the ring.

My disappointment from the fight earlier vanished instantly, and I moved closer.

I turned back toward the fight and assess

Why would she want to leave? Where would she go? Surely not back to her old pack. That would be a big mistake... they treated her cruelly there. Hopefully something will happen to make her change her mind.

  • Alpha Mordecai: Love & Obsession   Chapter 77

    Willow’s POVI told myself it was nothing. Branches fell in storms like this all the time.Then I heard footsteps, and they weren’t mine.I froze.A second snap, off to my left this time. Then a third, behind me again, closer.I wasn’t alone.My pulse spiked, and I forced myself to keep walking instead of running, because running would tell whatever was out there that I knew it was there.It didn’t matter because within seconds shapes emerged from between the trees on every side of me. Seven of them. Their eyes were pure black, and I understood immediately what I was looking at.Rogues.Only two of them were in human form. They looked me over slowly.“An omega,” he grinned. “Wandering around alone in weather like this.”“Wolfless,” another added, sniffing the air. “No scent of a pack on her either.”The tall one looked toward the direction of the Blood Moon pack. “She's running,” he deduced, his grin widening. “From Blood Moon.”“Poor little thing.” the other one chuckled. “That mean

  • Alpha Mordecai: Love & Obsession   Chapter 76

    Willow’s POVThe storm got worse as the night went on, and I made myself wait for it.I sat on the edge of my bed with the lamp switched off, listening to thunder outside and watching lightning flash. Every crack of thunder made the windows rattle slightly. Rain hammered against the glass hard.This was the best chance I was going to get.I made myself wait a while anyway, just to be sure the storm wasn’t passing anytime soon. When it didn’t show any signs of stopping, I got moving.There wasn’t much for me to pack. I had arrived here with nothing and most of what I owned now belonged to this room. I pulled the darkest clothes I had from the dresser and changed quickly, my fingers shaky from nerves.I stood there for a moment looking at the small pile of things I was leaving behind. The blanket Mordecai had once used to cover me. The chair by the window where he used to sit. None of it was mine to take, and none of it would help me survive outside these walls anyway.There was one thi

  • Alpha Mordecai: Love & Obsession   Chapter 75

    Willow’s POVI didn’t go back to the garden that evening. I didn’t go to the training grounds. I went straight to my room and sat on the edge of the bed, staring at the wall, and let myself actually think about what had happened.The girl had wanted to leave.She had been a gift, the same as me. An outsider, the same as me.But she had tried to do exactly what I had spent weeks planning to do, and the result had been an execution that took less than a minute.I thought about how safe I had started to feel here. I thought about laughing in the garden with Mordecai yesterday, about the warmth of his hand around my wrist, about every small thing that had made me forget what he actually was.I had let myself forget.I thought about the first night in the stairwell, when I had told him to just get it over with, when I had been too exhausted and broken to be afraid anymore, and he had told me I was lucky he was in a good mood.What would he have done if he hadn’t been in a good mood?I alrea

  • Alpha Mordecai: Love & Obsession   Chapter 74

    Willow’s POVI didn’t sleep well that night.Every time I closed my eyes I was back in the garden, his fingers wrapped around my wrist, the apology that didn’t make sense, the disappointment that I couldn’t explain.What was going through his mind? By morning I had convinced myself I was being ridiculous.I went to the garden early. I knelt down in the dirt and told myself I was not going to think about Mordecai today. I had a whole list of things to do.I lasted maybe twenty minutes before I caught myself staring at nothing, thinking about the look on his face right before he walked away.“Stop it,” I muttered to myself.I forced myself to keep working, and for a while it actually helped. The morning passed, and I managed to push the whole thing into a corner of my mind.It was afternoon when I noticed something was different.I straightened up and looked toward the small door. I couldn’t see anything from inside the garden, but I could hear voices. There were more voices than usual

  • Alpha Mordecai: Love & Obsession   Chapter 73

    Chapter 73Willow’s POVA week later, the healer grudgingly declared that I was cleared for light work, which meant I was finally allowed back in my own garden. I escaped the clinic before anyone could change their mind.I practically ran there.Well, I didn’t run. My ribs still hurt too much to run. But I walked faster than I should have, and the moment I pushed through the small door and breathed in the familiar smell of soil and leaves, something in my chest loosened.It had only been a few days. But it felt longer.I stood there for a moment just looking at it. The rows I had cleared weeks ago. The blue flowers near the far wall. The tree I liked to sit under. None of it had changed, but I had missed it in a way that surprised me a little.This garden didn’t ask anything of me. It didn’t make my heart do strange things or kiss me and then disappear for a week. It just sat there and grew, and let me take care of it, and that was enough.I knelt carefully beside one of the flower bed

  • Alpha Mordecai: Love & Obsession   Chapter 72

    Mordecai’s POV (Yes, it’s HIM)Willow fell asleep faster than I expected.I watched her for several minutes without moving, just to be certain. Her breathing was slow and steady. Her face had stopped showing any sign of the tension that had been there all evening.I waited until her heartbeat settled into deep sleep before I let myself relax slightly in the chair.Willow was not a quiet person when she was awake. She took up space in ways that had nothing to do with her size. Even when she was talking, she was not silent, her movements, and the way her expression changed every few seconds giving away everything she was thinking even when she was trying to hide it.In sleep, she was still.She looked peaceful and younger than she usually did, no longer tense or waiting for the next problem.I could remember clearly the way her breath would catch. The way her heartbeat would spike at my mere presence.Tonight she had argued with me, mocked me, and rolled her eyes at meInstead of being a

    Willow’s POVI stayed perfectly still.The room was dark. The only lighting came from the moonlight coming through the windows.I sat up slowly, squinting through the darkness, but nothing moved.There was no shadow. No sound.My heart hammered against my ribs as I stared into the darkness.Someone

    Willow’s POVThe next morning, a knock came at my door immediately after breakfast.Beta Robin was standing in the hallway when I opened it, his bright red hair making him very easy to recognize.“Ready?” he asked.I scowled as I grumbled. “Do I really have a choice?”To my surprise, he shrugged.

    Willow’s POVI went to the garden early, before the sun had risen.I hadn’t slept properly. Every time I had drifted off during the night, those pale eyes came back, and I had woken up each time with my heart pounding too fast. By the third time it happened I had given up trying to sleep at all and

    Willow’s POVBeta Robin didn’t answer right away. He looked at the path ahead for several seconds, then he exhaled slowly.“I was wondering how long it would take before you asked.”I snorted. “Not very long, apparently.” He glanced at me, then looked forward again.“They forgot themselves,” he sa
