Hiding the Alpha's Twins 13~ The Beginning of the Past
~Avery~ As our vehicle crossed the border of Silverpine, my heart tightened with apprehension. The guards at the border were already aware of our visit, allowing us to pass without delay. Marcus sat across from me in the sleek black limousine, his gaze piercing. I attempted to maintain a composed exterior, concealing my trembling hands beneath my handbag resting on my lap. However, Marcus's keen observation seemed to cut through my facade, igniting a suspicion that he might be aware of the storm of fears swirling within me. I had previously requested Marcus to bring my mother and the children over the following week. My reasoning was to avoid the additional attention our arrival would attract today, especially from the curious eyes of Silverpine's members. I was not yet ready for them to meet my family. "You seem anxious," Marcus remarked, breaking the silence. "Is there any reason I shouldn't be?" I countered, meeting his gaze with a determined look, though my voice
Hiding the Alpha's Twins 14~ The Face-off
~King~ The boardroom was filled with businessmen and women in smart attires, waiting for the representative from Bells Empire. I couldn't help but notice Kristopher, who seemed unusually distracted, tapping rhythmically on the table. His distraction had been noticeable since yesterday after we had received our special visitor. I guess I was about to find out why he was that way. Just as I wrapped up my thoughts, the door swung open dramatically, capturing everyone's attention. A woman, exuding an air of unmistakable confidence, stepped in, closely followed by an assistant who was carrying her bag and several files. Her entrance was so commanding that it immediately hushed the room. However, it wasn't the sudden quiet or her impressive confidence that froze me in my spot. It was the woman herself. Avery Frost, my long-lost ex, whom I had spent five arduous years searching for across the globe. The very same Avery, who once had nothing, now stood before us, a confident businesswoman
Hiding the Alpha's Twins 15~ The Apology
~Avery~ "Mom, there's no 'calming down' here. He embarrassed me in front of everyone. He's arrogant, proud, and just impossible to work with. I don't think I can handle working with him any longer," I vented my frustrations to my mother over the phone, hastily stuffing my clothes into my suitcase.The incident at Thornwood Empire had left me seething. King seemed to have taken it upon himself to infuriate me intentionally. I had hoped for a bit of professionalism since he had been in this company business before me, but instead, he chose to flaunt his arrogance and pride. My mother's attempts at soothing my anger were futile; I could barely contain my frustration. I had already made up my mind that as soon as our call ended, I would call Marcus and tell him that the deal was off and to come and pick me up first thing tomorrow morning. I also planned to relinquish control to Tia and run out of this frustration after that call. Despite my mother's gentle persuasion to take a
Hiding the Alpha's Twins 16~ Ruined Lunch
~Avery~ My office felt like a personalized haven, vast and welcoming, with an interior that seemed tailored just for me. The colours and arrangements resonated deeply with my preferences, creating a space I was genuinely fond of. King and his team had outdone themselves, and although I hesitated to admit it, I was certain King had chosen these particular hues knowing they were among my favourites. While we didn't talk much when we were married, we had shared little talks about our likes and dislikes, and other trivial things. It warmed my heart to realize he remembered my favourite colours. Back in Blue Moon Pack, Duncan had employed me as his confidential secretary, which made both of us always together. My office was also nice and comfortable, but it had been in a corner beside his office, nothing as spacious as this.Throughout the rest of the previous day, after King departed from my home, he occupied my thoughts and had even haunted my dreams even though he was the last pers
Hiding the Alpha's Twins 17~ Pang of Jealousy
~Avery~ I stepped out of the car, not waiting for my assistant to turn off the engine. With a forceful push, I shut the door so hard it seemed like the windows might shatter. Fuelled by emotions I struggled to name, I marched towards the house. I had tried to convince myself that I was having a mood swing, after lunch and nothing more. I wasn't jealous that King and Regina were publicly displaying affection for me to watch. Entering the living room, I let my handbag fly from my grasp, watching it sail through the air before it made a soft landing on the sofa. With a heavy sigh, I dropped onto a sofa, the day's frustrations weighing me down. "Welcome, ma'am," my housekeeper muttered, and I almost jumped out of my skin.I looked at the older woman and sighed, rubbing my temple. I didn't remember this woman from my first stay here, but she had been very nice since I came here, though I couldn't tell if she was only being nice because of my status or if she was just a good perso
Hiding the Alpha's Twins 18~ The Ball
~Avery~ When I finally arrived at the rooftop ball party, it was already bustling with elites from different packs, mingling under the canopy of twinkling stars. It was a beautiful sight, and I enjoyed the entire ambience and atmosphere. I got out of the elevator and made my way in slowly and graciously, noticing as King turned to see what caught everyone else's attention. I saw the shock etched in his face, as he saw me and also noticed the flash of hatred in the eyes of his clingy princess, a.k.a. Regina. I only flashed a slight smile his way and passed them as if I had never seen them in my life before.Most people in this room had seen me and King together five years ago. I was that timid little girl who always hid in King's shadow, unnoticed while he basked in the limelight and the adoration showered upon him by others, particularly the ladies. I moved straight towards Alpha Cassius who was already walking towards me with a warm, welcoming smile. That was when the whispers
Hiding the Alpha's Twins 19~ In Her Place
~Avery~ “You two seem quite close,” one of the Alphas standing with us remarked with a teasing grin. “No!” I blurted before I could stop myself. "We’re not fond of each other in that way and are not close. We’re merely partners, discussing work matters.” Turning towards King, I sought his agreement. “Isn’t that right, King?”A flicker of something unidentifiable crossed King’s gaze—was it annoyance or anger? Then his jaw tightened, puzzling me. I wondered why he had that expression. Surely, he wasn’t expecting me to tell these men that we were close. We were married, but that had been a long time ago, and even then, we were not close. “Honey?” a soft female voice interrupted us.Our attention shifted to Regina, who stood not far off, offering King a warm smile, blatantly ignoring my presence. I couldn’t help but smirk inwardly, stepping back from King as if giving them space. “Hey, love,” King greeted, moving towards Regina and gently tucking a lock of her hair be
Hiding the Alpha's Twins 20~ The Attack
~Avery~Fear wrapped its cold fingers around my heart as I was surrounded by the chaos of screams and the menacing growls of our attackers. Everyone was running helter-skelter, and from where I was huddled, I could see them. The rogues fierce and powerful, were pushing people aside without mercy. They were searching for something or someone. I couldn't help but wonder how these wild, unruly rogues had managed to break into Alpha Cassius' pack, let alone disrupt his party. But they were known to be brute and reckless. Shivers of fear ran down my spine as the thoughts of my kids raced through my mind. Tears sprang to my eyes as I recalled how my conversation with my mom had ended that evening. I wished I had not been too harsh on her. If only I could take them back. I felt utterly defenceless and was torn between the urge to transform into my wolf form and the desperate hope for a miracle. I made a silent prayer to the moon goddess to save me.Suddenly, a rustling sound from behin
