Alpha Hayley’s Destined Mate
Chapter 551 Do You Know the Rules?

“Forget about her background. Just remember this: she not someone you can afford to offend.
After ending the call, the officer stood frozen, completely taken aback.
If only that warning had come ten minutes earlier he had already upset Hayley. Now, how was he supposed to fix the mess?
Meanwhile, Jonah had left the car dealership and headed to a club, where he bumped into Daniel, who was also out for a good time. Since they were on the same wavelength, they decided to share a private room.
Just as they were about to start a game of cards, the music cut off abruptly.
The door burst open, and a group of uniformed officers stormed in. Some of them shifted into their wolf forms, surrounding the guests in an instant.
“What the hell! Do you know the rules here?” Jonah muttered, lowering his drink. When he recognized the police, he swallowed back the curses that were on the tip of his tongue.
“Who’s Jonah Ortega?” one of the officers demanded.
“That’s me. What do you want?” Jonah replied, irritation clear in his tone.
“You’re coming with us.”
Before he could react, two officers stepped forward to apprehend him.
Jonah, who had been enjoying himself, had no intention of being taken away like a criminal. Shoving their hands aside, he snapped, “What the hell is this about? What crime did I commit?”
“If you were innocent, we wouldn’t be here,” the officer replied firmly. “You’re being detained for allegedly harassing Ms. Hayley Carson and Ms. Mira. We need your cooperation for the investigation.”
Jonah froze for a second, then immediately connected the dots to the two women at the dealership. His expression twisted in frustration. “Those d*mn women!
Daniel, standing beside him, stepped in, signaling for Jonah to stay calm.
Though he held a high–ranking position among werewolves, he preferred to avoid unnecessary trouble. Getting into a dispute with the authorities wouldn’t be in their best interests.
Jonah clenched his fists but ultimately gave
- in.
Seeing Jonah back down, Daniel turned to the officers with a composed smile. “We’ll go with you.”
With Hayley involved, things were bound to get interesting.
Hayley’s POV:
One car after another pulled up outside, and soon, a line of officers entered the lobby in perfect formation.

But instead, I saw Daniel.
I let out a slow sigh–what a small world.
Jonah strolled in, slinging an arm over Daniel’s shoulder and whispering something in his ear,
What was going on? Were they related?
+8 Pears
I discreetly asked Hera to pick up their scents. Her answer confirmed it–they were blood brothers.
While Jonah spoke in hushed tones, Daniel’s sharp gaze remained locked on me, his expression unreadable, yet laced with a quiet menace.
I crossed my arms, meeting his stare head–on.
Everything was going just as I had planned. Those two wouldn’t be able to act so arrogantly for much longer.
On the way to the station, Daniel and Jonah had already devised a strategy.
As long as the employees at the dealership stuck to their claim that Hayley and Mira had been trying to con them, the women would be accused of attempted extortion.
Even with Benjamin on their side, it wouldn’t change much.
Benjamin might be the Alpha of the Midnight Pack. But in this city, his influence wasn’t as strong as theirs
Daniel’s eyes narrowed as he turned to Benjamin, his voice dripping with mockery. “Did you think my family was an easy target?”
Benjamin remained unfazed, his expression unreadable. He simply pressed his lips together in mild impatience. “You misunderstand. My fiancée is the one handling this matter, not me.”
Then, his tone dropped, dangerously calm. “But if I were targeting you, trust me–you wouldn’t even see it coming.”
“You-” Daniel’s face darkened as he struggled to find a retort.
“Let’s keep this simple,” he eventually said, trying to regain control. “We’re willing to apologize, but if you push this too far, we won’t back down without a fight.”
Benjamin’s eyes remained cold. “I’ll be watching.”
Hayley’s POV:
Sensing the rising tension, an officer quickly stepped in hoping to defuse the situation. “Ms. Carson, since the Ortega brothers have acknowledged their mistake and are willing to apologize and compensate you, perhaps you could be the bigger person and let this go
It was obvious he didn’t want to get on the bad side of either Benjamin or Dániel.

Even though Benjamin held authority as the Alpha of the Midnight Pack, Daniel was a local powerhouse. The officer was trying to play it safe, subtly pushing me to accept their apology.
I scoffed, tilting my head slightly. “So, you’re saying that just because they apologized, I’m supposed to forgive them?”
