Alpha Hayley's Destined Mate novel Chapter 708

Chapter 708 Come to Me 

Hayley’s POV: 

“Who is he?” Xavier raised a brow in disdain, glancing at Benjamin, then looked at me. 

“My fiance,” I replied without hesitation. 

Xavier narrowed his eyes, casting Benjamin a look filled with layered meaning. 

He then turned his face away, his voice suddenly distant. “If you want to talk with me, you must come to my side first.” 

I glanced down at the floor between us. Xavier was less than six and a half feet away, but the space was riddled with traps.. 

One misstep, and you’d fall straight into a pit of sharp blades coated in wolfsbane. 

No ordinary werewolf could make it across. 

As an Alpha, just as I am, Benjamin’s strength was something I relied on. 

I looked to Benjamin. He met my gaze calmly and gave a small nod.
