Alpha Hayley’s Destined Mate
Chapter 304 Engagement
Hayley’s POV:
Finished
January 10th wasn’t just the day I succeeded as Alpha of the Shadow Pack; it was also the day I got engaged to Benjamin, the Alpha of the Midnight Pack.
I had insisted on keeping the celebration simple. Instead of a lavish event, we hosted a small gathering with close family and friends from both sides.
Wearing a white gown I had personally modified, I walked out gracefully, arm in arm with my grandmother, to receive everyone’s blessings.
My grandmother led me to Benjamin, carefully placing my hand into his.
With tears in her eyes, she advised him, “Ben, Hayz is my most precious child–so precious that I’ve always been afraid she might get hurt. You must treat her well, and never let her feel wronged. I hope you two will love and cherish each other for the rest of your lives.
“At the same time, Shadow Pack and Midnight Pack will now form the strongest alliance. Together, our packs will only grow stronger and better.”
As my grandmother finished speaking, I couldn’t hold back my tears. I reached out and embraced her tightly. “Grandma, can’t bear to leave you.”
She chuckled softly, gently patting my back. “Silly girl, what nonsense are you saying? Today is your engagement day–a day to be happy! You should be happy.”
I let her go and nodded firmly.”
My grandmother pulled a small ornate box from her pocket and handed it to me. “This is my engagement gift to you. I hope my Hayz finds true happiness.”
I accepted it and replied solemnly. “Thank you.”
She waved her hand. “Go now, my dear.
Beside me, Benjamin turned to her and said, “Don’t worry, Grandma. I’ll take good care of her.”
“Great. As long as you young ones are happy, we’ll be happy too.”
I could sense my grandmother’s reluctance, so I gently reassured her, “Don’t worry, Grandma. We’ll be just fine.”
Holding onto Benjamin’s arm, I silently made a promise to myself: I would walk this path with him wholeheartedly, building a future filled with happiness
When the time was right, I would reveal everything about myself to him, my destined mate.
The Southwell brothers also offered their congratulations. Henry handed me a gift, saying, “Boss, Ben, this is for you. I hope you both have a happy engagement.
“Thank you!” I replied cheerfully, accepting Henry’s gift with a smile.

about we play some games together?”
Finished
Seeing the eager look on his face, I couldn’t bring myself to turn him down, so I agreed, Til play a few rounds with you later.”
Henry’s face lit up with joy. “Thanks, Boss!”
I couldn’t help but smile and shake my head, amused by how easily he found happiness, like a child.
Christopher’s POV:
Listening to Henry and Hayley talk, I couldn’t help butask, “Henry, what’s got you so happy?”
Henry puffed out his chest with a proud grin. “Oh, nothing much. Just that I’m going to play games
Boss later

I thought Henry was being a bit odd. It was just a game after all. Still, seeing him so excited, I couldn’t quite understand. “It’s just a game. Why are you so excited?”
Seeing my confusion, Henry said mysteriously. “It’s not a big deal if it’s just a regular game, but when it’s with my boss Hayley, that’s a whole different story.”
It was then that I realized–Henry’s use of “boss” for Hayley was so natural, so effortless.
When did their relationship become so close? And why did he show so much respect to Hayley, especially considering she was an Omega?
When Hayley first arrived at the Southwells‘ Residence, Henry disliked her even more than I did. What was going on now?
Had he suddenly decided to please her just because she was about to officially become the Luna of the Midnight Pack?
None of this made sense to me.
Seeing that I was still puzzled, Henry grinned and said, “You just don’t understand how amazing Boss is, that’s why you look so confused. If you know her identity, I guarantee you’ll feel the same way I do.”
What could be so special about an Omega like Hayley?
I couldn’t help but feel like Henry was just trying to make things sound more mysterious. I said disdainfully, “You’re starting to sound ridiculous. She’s an Omega, and we’re high–ranking Betas. It’ll be impressive if she manages to play a round or two. Do you think she can beat us?”
