Alpha Hayley's Destined Mate by Andrea Townsend

Chapter 721 Foolish Blood Ties

Hayley's POV:

"Mom, you said before that Peter's accident was Freya's fault. What makes you so sure?" I looked at her seriously.

Virginia's eyes suddenly reddened with tears.

"What's wrong?"

"It's nothing. It's just... you finally called me 'Mom. I got a little emotional." Virginia wiped her tears and smiled at me with motherly affection.

Hearing her say that, something tugged at my heart, and even my wolf, Hera, howled with joy inside me..

I calmed Hera and turned my attention back to Virginia.

She composed herself and began to explain, "Peter was supposed to stay home with me these past couple of days. But somehow, he heard that Freya was fighting for a piece of land in Riverton. If she got it, the pack elders would back her even more than before.

"So Peter drove to Riverton in the middle of the night, planning to snatch the land and stop that woman. But as soon as he left town, he got into that accident. There's no way Freya isn't involved!"

At this point, she suddenly grabbed my hand, her voice trembling with urgency. "Freya is insane. Witch blood runs in her veins-she was born our enemy. Michelle, stay out of this. I'll get justice for Peter. He's already like this; I can't let anything happen to you too."

"Mom." I gripped her hand firmly, my gaze determined. "The one who's going to get hurt isn't me-it's the one who hurt Peter. Watch over him. I'm going to the Sanders Residence."
