ALPHA ZAYN'S DISTRUST

"I didn't do anything wrong, Zayn!" My eyes filled with tears as I watched him push the helpless man aside. Reacting on instinct, I took a step back as he advanced, his normally icy gaze now reflecting the ferocity of a wild wolf. I knew I was in trouble, but for my son's sake, I couldn't give up. "Roger was the one who tried to exploit me -" "Shh," he silenced me with a gentle kiss, drawing me into his embrace and stealing away my thoughts. Lost in the moment, he pulled back and whispered against my lips, "Don't worry, I'll look into it personally, my love. Both of us know I don't trust what you've said, despite how innocent you seem." --- Since Maisie was left heartbroken by her former partner, she swore never to let him near her or their child. Yet, destiny had other plans, and she found herself entangled with her former love, Zayn Cardinal, an alpha of the Frost Fang pack, known for his strength across the Great Landmark. Scarred by Maisie's past betrayal, Zayn learned about his son, Alexei, which reignited old wounds. Determined not to fall for her tactics again, Zayn confronted Maisie, yet the presence of their son, Alexei, remained the only potential bridge between them. Could their love be rekindled, or would their family bond be the sole connection they shared?
