Chapter 740 Deeds and Deceptions
Hayley’s POV:
“Excuse me, which one of you is Ms. Carson?” the man in the suit asked politely.
That’s me. Can I help you?” I recognized him
right out from between me and Freya.
immediately–he was the one who had snatched the land
“Perfect,” he said with a courteous smile as he handed over a document. “This is the deed. I’m here on behalf of my employer to present it to you as a gift.”
“So, who is your boss?” I asked, a bit surprised.
“The founder of Fate Corporation, Alpha of the Grimmoon Pack–Truman,” he said calmly.
“I don’t know any Alpha named Truman,” I replied. I hadn’t even heard of Fate Corporation before.
“You don’t need to,” the man said smoothly. “All you need to know is that on Fate territory, you’re considered the most honored guest.”
He bowed slightly and nudged the deed forward again. “Please, Ms. Carson, accept it. Don’t make things difficult for a humble employee like me.”
I really disliked this kind of forced politeness. What, just because Truman wanted to know me, I was obligated to say yes?
Still, seeing the way Freya’s jaw clenched and her eyes burned with fury, I couldn’t deny that it gave me a tiny bit of satisfaction.
Benjamin’s POV:
Watching Hayley hesitate, I felt a flicker of could I forget how stubborn she was?

Seeing the poor employee flounder, I stepped forward and took the document from his hands. “Please thank Mr. White for his generosity. I’ll accept it on Hayley’s behalf.”
“In that case, I won’t take up much of your time.” With that, the employee–who clearly had no idea who I was–nodded and left without another word.
Hayley shot me a dramatic side–eye and muttered, “And now you’re out here accepting favors for me?”
“Why not? You already owe me plenty,” I teased, trying to pacify her.
After all, Truman and I are the same person!
The Grimmoon Pack was my great–grandmother’s birthplace, and through a twist of fate, the former Alpha passed the title on to me.
I hadn’t told anyone about it.
“Hmm?” Hayley arched a brow at me, clearly suspicious.
“What I mean is,” I said with a mild smile, “if I cover someone else’s favor for you, doesn’t that mean their

debt falls on me?”
“Now that sounds like a good deal. Hayley’s eyes sparkled with mischief. In that case, I don’t owe anyone anything anymore!”
Ichuckled helplessly and didn’t argue.
Since I’d used ‘Truman’s identity to win her that land, I never expected her to pay anything back,
She was my destined mate- of course she was mine to protect.
Hayley stuck her tongue out at me–pure mischief and charm, utterly adorable.

Freya’s fists clenched at her sides, shaking with fury. Her bloodshot wolf eyes glared at me in silence.
I stared back without flinching.
Hera–my inner wolf–was raging, howling to be let out and teach her a lesson.
I soothed her, kept her in check.
“Ms. Freya.” Her assistant, Nathan, returned, looking uneasy and holding a phone. He whispered to her, “Your father wants to speak with you.”
Freya finally forced herself to calm down, pulling her expression back under control. “Enjoy your victory while it lasts, Hayley,” she said coldly. “You won’t be this lucky forever.”
