I thought of the pain I went through because of Mara and anger welled up in me.Was Mara some sort of eternal foe? Why on earth was she in my face again? I had moved on from the past, embracing a new life and an ugly demon from the past shows up?Didn't she already break up with Trevor? Or was I missing something? My head was filled with different thoughts.How can any sane adult just barge in on people and start acting without control? I was heavily infuriated by Mara’s arrival and even more so because Trevor seemed captured by her display.As if that was not enough, I saw her kiss Trevor! Oh no! I rushed into my room and slammed the door.I held my head in my hand as I paced back and forth in my room. I was mad at Trevor for just standing there as if he had been bewitched. Just then I heard knocks, “Bella! Bella, please let me in,'' he called.I didn't respond, then he contin
His Second Chance Mate 28: How Dare You?
TREVORI thought of everything Mara said and I came to a conclusion that she was just trying to manipulate me into taking her back.I thought of the way she left me, her attitude before and after the breakup and I knew she broke up with me because she wanted to. The Mara I knew would not end a relationship because her aunt was in a crisis. She was too selfish to please others at her own expense.In fact, after she left, there were rumors that she was seeing someone else. There were pictures of her flying around with another guy, she definitely ditched me for her own selfish reasons. And she had the guts to return to my house, telling me I should know better.I made up my mind to put her in her place, I wasn't going to let her ruin what I was building with Bella.I invited Bella to breakfast, hoping we could have a good time and I could start the day on a good note with her. Then Mara appeared, throwing her arrogant self around. I hoped she would just fool around and not confront anyon
His Second Chance Mate 29: Stupid Move
MARAGetting to Trevor's mansion after leaving for some months needed a grand entrance and I made sure to have that. I felt good being able to disrupt the peace of the palace. I mean, how would a whole Mara just appear without any form of announcement? I couldn't allow that for myself.I did my best on arrival. I fed Trevor a good story to cover for my cold and sudden break up. He seemed to swallow all I said. There were a few doubts here and there, but I was able to brainwash him, or so I thought.By morning, Trevor was a different person. The Trevor I used to know would do anything to keep me by his side. Infact, my return was supposed to be a thing of joy for him but to my utmost amusement, he now had a second chance mate, Bella! Of all people.I was in rivalry with Bella? Same Bella who would cower in my presence? The whole situation seemed ridiculous to me and I was bent on humiliating Bella until she could no longer breath.I was shocked when I saw her.

His Second Chance Mate 30: I’ll Stay
BELLAMara’s confession pierced through my heart like a sharp knife. I felt my willpower drain immediately.Mara was pregnant for Trevor?I could feel my head turning. I just knew at that point that I couldn't take it anymore. I had reached the peak of this saga. Whatever they liked, they should do with themselves, I was done.I went into my room, feeling both angry and depressed. If Mara was pregnant, then what was I doing here? She was back for Trevor, so he didn't need a second chance mate. He was done using me to save face, I should as well pack my things and leave with my kids.I took out my luggage and started folding my clothes. A flood of thoughts ran through my head. I was even too confused to fight. Just last night, Trevor and I were having a swell time at dinner. Everything just turned upside down on Mara’s arrival, now she was pregnant?How bad can it get in this palace, anyway ? I didn't want to come here in the first place. I was forced to stay. Hence, leaving would be
His Second Chance Mate 31: Cover Up
MARAI was escorted to my room by the guards. I called maids to put my room in order, I was back to stay and I would see that it remained that way.I thought of the weight of what I had done. I just knew I had to keep it going or face huge consequences from Trevor and the entire clan. I didn't want to imagine what would be done to me if they found out I pinned a false pregnancy on the Alpha.Now I had to find proof of pregnancy.I was confused on how to go about it. I knew Trevor, he could show up at anytime demanding proof, hence, I had to be ready. I had to be two steps ahead of him or everything would be exposed soon.I picked up my phone and dialed a number. He had to have a way out of the mess. The phone rang twice but I got no answer. I paced around in my room, my heart was beating really fast.About thirty minutes later, the number called back. My heart skipped as I picked up, speaking in low tones,”Can you hear me? I really can't shout here,” I manager to say.I went on about
His Second Chance Mate 32
TREVORI left Mara’s room with more doubt than I had before going in to see her. I was not at peace with her complaint about being sick. For someone who had been so energetic, ready to fight the whole world in the morning, it was quite difficult to believe she was ill by midday.I knew how crafty and desperate Mara could get when she wanted something. Hence, I had Casper trail her to know her whereabouts. I was not shocked when Casper told me she had gone into the woods at night, despite reporting sick.I held onto that piece of information, albeit I feigned ignorance when I went to her room to get the urine sample the next day.She responded to me still acting sick, “How are you feeling today?” I asked, deliberately.She held her head and gave me a sick face, “I feel sore and weak, all over my body. I haven’t left this room since yesterday,” she said in a very low tone.I was irritated by her incessant lies.She walked into the restroom and came out after some minutes with her urine
His Second Chance Mate 33
BELLAA smile curved on my lips as I thought of the swell time I had with Trevor. The laughter, the talks, the jokes, everything. Trevor had put in so much to make me happy and it worked. The whole arrangement blew my mind, it was beyond my expectations.After seeing the result of Mara’s pregnancy test, I just lost my zeal. I felt really downcast. Although Trevor reassured me, it didn't help elevate my mood. I had reluctantly agreed to go on the date with him because I also needed to distract myself from the disturbing thoughts I was having.I was highly impressed when I realized we were having a picnic in a private park. I laughed hysterically when Trevor said he had a number of adventures planned and painting was one of them.I was all smiles as I walked towards my room but the smile on my face froze when Mara rushed out and stood in front of me. She looked like she was ready to devour her prey. I looked at her all the way down, shook my head and moved in another direction, “And whe
His Second Chance Mate 34
TREVORThere was so much chaos in the palace with Mara in it. She had taken up the duty of pissing Bella off and I hated it. I did not bring Bella to the palace just so she could get insulted by some runaway lover trying to force her way into my life.The incessant troubles were getting to me and I wanted more than anything to put Mara in her place but if she was pregnant, it was expedient to treat her with some calm, at least until I was clear on the matter.Deep down, I knew Mara was not pregnant for me. There were no signs whatsoever that she had my seed in her. However, I was ready to take it slow, one step at a time. It was as though she was deliberately frustrating my efforts to make Bella happy.I returned to the house with Bella. I was glad I had been able to make her happy. Next, I went straight to meet Cara and Craig. While tucking them in, Cara had insisted I placed her on my chest before she would fall asleep. In the process, I dozed off in their room.Suddenly I began he
