All Chapters of Alpha Mordecai: Love & Obsession: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

Willow’s POV“Don’t tell me you’re planning on wasting your newfound freedom in this place.”I didn’t need to turn around to know who that was.Diana.I stayed where I was. “Good morning to you too.”“It’s afternoon, almost evening.”I looked up at the sky. The sun had moved. She was right.“Good afternoon, then.”She stopped beside me and looked around at the garden with an unreadable expression. Then she looked down at me still crouched on the ground with my hands in the dirt, and she raised an eyebrow.“You have been in here all morning.”“I’ve been working.” I gestured at the row I had just finished.“I walked past the door an hour ago. You were sitting against that tree.” She pointed.I opened my mouth.“Asleep.” She added.I closed my mouth.Diana looked at me with an exasperated expression.“Hela told me she informed you three days ago,” she stated.“Yes.” Then I paused. “Why did Hela tell you this?”She ignored my question. “Have you gone outside since then?”I paused.“The ga

Willow’s POVI frowned, then turned slowly to see four young women standing behind me, but I didn’t recognize any of them.The first woman had her eyes fixed on me with a sneer on her face, and something about the look immediately felt familiar.It reminded me of Stacey. It was the kind of look that usually came before something unpleasant.She was pretty, well-dressed, and carried herself with the confidence of someone who expected people to move out of her way.I had been in enough situations like this to know that engaging her was pointless. Anything I said would be turned around. Anything I showed on my face would be used. I had learned that from Stacey. The best thing to do was say nothing and wait.Her gaze swept over me slowly with disapproval.“Well,” she drawled. “Pinecrest trash.”The nearby conversations stopped completely.Wonderful.I stood up slowly, already feeling exhausted. “What do you want?”Her smile widened slightly. “I was curious.”I lifted an eyebrow. “About?”“

Chapter 35Willow’s POVThe next morning, I woke up with a plan.I lay in bed for a few minutes after opening my eyes, going over it in my head. The plan was simple. I just needed to start small, without rush so that it wouldn’t look obvious.I was going to map this pack and find out how to escape.I couldn’t do it all at once because it would look suspicious, especially for someone who had spent the last three days refusing to leave the garden. A sudden change overnight would draw attention and I didn’t need that.I got up, ate breakfast when it was brought, and then went to the garden first.I told myself I would only stay for an hour or two, just to make the morning look normal.That was the plan.Three hours later, I was still there.I had not planned for that. I had simply gotten lost in what I was doing, going from one plant to another, and before I noticed the time, it was three hours already.I stood up and looked at what I had done with a small proud smile.There was somethin

Willow’s POVHela 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 assessed them both quickly.The green-eyed man was taller than Hela by several inches and broader. He had the kind of build that made people assume he would be much more powerful.Hela was leaner and shorter, but she moved differently from everyone else I had watched in this ring. Even when just standing, she had a stillness to her that felt like she was always ready for anything.So even though the warrior was much larger, taller and wider, Hela still appeared more dangerous.Maybe it was the scar or

Willow’s POVA man and a woman were both on their knees, and they were backing against the wall. Their hands were pressed together, their fingers were intertwined. The woman was sobbing openly, and the man was talking fast, both of them staring up at the figure standing over them.Alpha Mordecai.His back was to me, but I recognized him instantly. Those broad shoulders. His presence. I knew it was him before I saw his face.That dreaded sword from the first day was in his hand. The same sword that had haunted my nightmares.“Please.” The woman’s voice broke on the word. “Please, Alpha, I’m sorry. We’re sorry. Please—”The man beside her had his free hand raised. “We didn’t know — we swear, we didn’t know, if we had known we never would have — please—”Mordecai said nothing.He moved fast.It was so fast I barely registered what happened before it was already over. The sword moved twice, and then the corridor went silent.The couple hit the floor together with their hands still togethe
