Alpha Hayley’s Destined Mate
Chapter 607 Keep My Emotions in Check
Freya’s POV:
+8 Pearls
Watching Hayley and Virginia in each other’s arms, both of them overcome with emotion and tears, something inside me snapped. My fists clenched tightly at my sides without my conscious effort.
For years, I had forced myself to be perfect–always striving to stand out, to be the one everyone admired- but Virginia and Laurel couldn’t even spare me a glance.
Hayley, on the other hand, was nothing but a low–tier Omega, a complete outsider, and yet Virginia treated her with an affection I could never seem to earn.
Every fiber of my being screamed to release my wolf, to unleash her fury and tear them both apart. But Benjamin, the Alpha, was still here, and he was not someone I could simply ignore.
I had to keep my emotions in check, forcing myself to step forward calmly. I moved beside Virginia, speaking in a measured tone, “Mom, this is very important. We need to be careful.
“I know you want to believe it’s my sister, but we both know she’s gone. Who’s to say this woman isn’t just some imposter?”
“Stop it!” Virginia snapped, her voice cutting through the air as she pushed me away.
She gripped Hayley’s hand with conviction, her voice rising as she declared, “Hayley is Michelle, and Michelle is Hayley. She’s my daughter!”
Her words struck me like a slap, and the rage inside me flared up uncontrollably. My wolf snarled, desperate to break free and exact revenge, but I forced her back, clamping down on my fury with all my might.
Through gritted teeth, I responded, my voice shaking with anger, “Mom, this isn’t just your decision. This is about the Sanders family.”
“This isn’t just about you either!” Hayley shot back, her gaze hard and unwavering. She was no ordinary low- tier Omega. The confidence in her eyes told me that much.
Benjamin, his voice cold as ice, added, “Ms. Sanders, please. This is a private matter, and it’s becoming crowded. There’s no space for everyone.”
I could feel the weight of his words, and seeing the group of Beta warriors positioned behind him made my stomach churn. With frustration simmering inside, I had no choice but to step back and retreat, my people following my lead.
One day, Hayley, I would make you pay for this.
Hayley’s POV:
After they left, Benjamin’s people slowly withdrew, and the room felt eerily quiet.
That was when I took the opportunity to explain why there were two paternity reports.
“Unbelievable!” Grandpa slammed his fist on the table, his anger unmistakable. “Do they honestly believe you would want the Sanders‘ fortune?”

I could sense the disapproval from Justin and his wife. Their glances were cold, faces set with annoyance.
I knew what they were thinking–they didn’t want me to remain with the Carsons. Justin still clung to the hope that he could secure the Alpha position in the Shadow Pack.
What he didn’t know, however, was that Grandpa had already passed on that title to me.
Even if he hadn’t, I knew Grandpa would never give that power to Justin. His rank was too low, and he lacked any real ability. The Shadow Pack could never be entrusted to someone like him.
As I processed their disapproval, I was suddenly pulled back into reality when Virginia grabbed my hand.
Her voice was trembling, yet full of urgency. “Michelle, you need to fight for what’s yours. It was always meant to be yours.”
It was as if her mental fog had lifted, and in its place, a fierce determination shone through. Her words were sharp and almost unnerving.
“Freya’s heart is twisted. The Sanders family is no longer what it once was under her control. Only with your return can the Sanders hope to stand tall again.”
I listened, emotionless, feeling as though she were talking about someone else’s life, not my own.
Grandpa and Grandma stayed quiet, absorbing the conversation without offering any judgment.
It was Benjamin who broke the silence, his voice steady yet full of intent. “Mrs. Virginia,” he said, his tone sharp, “I’m struggling to understand. You’ve said all of this–are you truly just missing your daughter, or is there something more here? Are you looking for a tool to fight for power?”
I was caught off guard, his words cutting through the tension and making me feel something I wasn’t expecting–he genuinely cared about me.
His expression grew darker, and the air around him thickened with the weight of his Alpha presence. Virginia froze, her entire body stiffening as his question hit her like a thunderclap.
