Chapter 85Amelie's POVI feel like my head is going to split into two any moment from now with the way, it's pounding hard. I tried to control my breath which was getting heavy. I can hear a constant ringing in my ear. Everyone's voices are muffled, feeling like I was underwater. I glance around and the room and everyone in it seems to be swaying. Why is it swaying so much?The doctor suddenly comes in with someone, but they were swaying so much that I could not concentrate. I narrow my eyes to take a closer look. It was the dealer I had gotten my opium from. My eyes widened in horror. What the hell is he doing here?“You know, I bought him another place and moved him away from here,” Alexa said calmly. Compared to my anxiety, she looks pretty relaxed.“Alexa, y…you were the one who hid him away?” I ask. I always wondered how he managed to run away that soon. It was Alexa all along.I freeze when I realize what I just blurted out. Alexa gives me a smug smile.“I thought you said you
Chapter 86Alpha Kai's POVI stare at Amelie in disbelief. She looked like a mad woman with a crazy glint in her eyes and disheveled hair as she licked opium off the table as if her life depended on it. How did she hide such a thing from me all this while? She deceived me so much. It turns out she's a murderer, a thief, and an addict. She tries to hurt Alexa, but Ace held her back just in time. She continues to thrash and scream, making a scene in front of the maids and guards.“Amelie!” I growl angrily. She quickly stopped and looks towards me. I gave her such a glare that her face turned ashen.“K…kai,” she stutters.“Everyone sit back now!” I order and everyone takes their seat. “K…kai, please, I can explain. It's not what you think. It's really not,” she said, tears rolling down her face. But they don't faze me anymore.“Explain? What can you explain? That you are a murderer, a thief, a traitor, and an addict. Who are you?” I inquire angrily.“It's still me, Amelie. You love me.
Chapter 87Alexa's POV“What is that?” Alpha Kai said.“What will we be traveling with? It's called a carriage,” I reply, trying to get in.“I know it's a carriage,” he grumbles.“Good to know, then. Are you going to keep standing there or are we leaving?” I ask.“Why are we traveling on a carriage? I'm a wolf,” he said, looking confused.“Yeah, everyone knows that,” I turn around to say and continue trying to get in, but I keep failing. This gown of mine won't just let me move like I would want to.“I can just shift and carry you on my back, it's faster that way. Why would you bring that thing?” he asks, looking displeased.“Again, it's a carriage. Tell me something, how many Alphas have Lunas that can't shift?” I inquired, turning to face him fully now.“Just one. You and me,” he mutters.“Exactly. You're shifting into your gigantic wolf and carrying me on your back would attract too much attention. Unless you want us to get ambushed again, you would get into this carriage,” I said
Chapter 88Alexa's POVI didn't notice when the carriage stopped. It seemed like we'd stopped for a while because I could see some people already waiting for us outside. I pull away from him and adjust my gown awkwardly. The Alpha gets out of the carriage and holds out his hand for me.“Shall we?” he asks.“We shall,” I reply, giving him my hand. We walk hand in hand toward the people waiting outside. I could see Deren among them. He smiles widely.“Brother,” he said, coming towards the Alpha with his arms wide open. The Alpha ignores him and walks towards a young lady with long fiery red hair and green eyes. She has little freckles that frame her face. Her red hair makes her stand out in front of everyone else present.“Darcey,” he calls out with a smile. The lady walks towards him, and he hugs her, twirling her around. The lady chuckles happily. They both walk towards the sulky Deren. Everyone tried to stifle their laughter.“Traitor, how could you ignore me like that?” Deren whines
Chapter 89Alpha Kai's POVI woke up this morning beside Alexa. I didn't get much sleep last night. Her scent and presence kept giving me sleepless nights and I don't know why. I've tried really hard to suppress these feelings, but lately, it keeps getting harder to suppress them any longer. I had carried her from the edge of the bed, afraid she might fall and hurt herself. I stared at her face for a while, tracing her eyebrows, nose, and soft lips with my finger. I leaned down to feel her soft lips against mine but restrained myself. I got up from the bed quickly like I had just been burnt. What the hell is happening to me and who keeps calling my name like that?“Kai!” Deren calls, shaking my arm. I jolt out of my reverie. “What happened? I've been calling you for a while now,” he said. Right. I was waiting for Deren in his office, and somehow my thoughts managed to find their way back to Alexa.“Nothing,” I reply.“You are lying. I've never seen you so unfocused before. Tell me w
Chapter 90Alexa's POVI exchanged pleasantries with Klara. I wonder why Ace never liked her. She looks beautiful and is also polite. Everyone at the table is in an awkward silence after what just happened. I feel someone's eyes on me. I glanced at everyone until my gaze met with the Alpha. He quickly looks away. Has he been staring at me?We finished our breakfast, and we were all about to leave when the twins stopped us.“Wait, everyone. We have something to say,” Mason said, and we all turned around to look at him. “Firstly, we want to say happy birthday to the best and most loving mummy in the world,” Manie said with a smile.“Thank you so much, babies,” Darcey replies happily.“Mum, we are not babies anymore. Stop calling us that,” Mason whines, and we all laugh.“You will always be my babies forever,” Darcey answers, and they sigh.“To the second part, we have a gift for you. It's from the both of us, even though daddy helped out a little,” Mason said.“A gift?” Darcey asks, su
Chapter 91Alexa's POV“Alexa, come join me and the girls for tea,” Darcey said to me. I was coming back from the training field when I met with her.“Sure,” I reply. We both walked upstairs to the balcony where two ladies and Klara were sitting.“Hello ladies,” Darcey said, and they exchanged pleasantries. We both take a seat.“Hello everyone,” I said politely and they replied.“Alexa, this is Keela and Hyacinth, ladies, this is Alexa Alpha Kai's wife,” Darcey introduces us.“Nice to meet you,” they both said, and I replied.“Happy birthday once again Darcey,” Hyacinth said.“Thank you,” she replies with a smile. The maids come in with some tea and cake.“I was just telling Keela here to show us some sexy moves,” Hyacinth giggles.“Sexy moves?” Darcey asks.“Yes, you know, Keela knows more than enough about sexy moves,” Hyacinth replies.“I have no idea how to dance,” Darcey replies. I wonder what types of moves they are talking about.“You don't need it anyway. Deren is always going
Chapter 92Alexa's POVHe continues to stare at me in a daze for a while. I clear my throat.“Is everything okay?” I ask curiously.“Yes, everything is completely fine,” he replies and I nod.“You look beautiful, by the way,” he said and hurries to the bathroom. I blinked trying to comprehend what just happened. Did he compliment me? Is he really okay? Or is he sick? Because the Alpha I know will never ever say that. I brush my hair and leave it straight, flowing behind my back. I'm currently wearing a black ball gown, the sleeves, and some parts of the front are lacy, showing my cleavage a little. It has a long slit, showing off my legs whenever I take a step. He comes out of the closet after getting dressed.“Let's go?” he said. I pick up our gift and we head outside. The party is being held in their large living room. They are a lot of people present, but not that many because I've heard Darcey really likes her privacy. She only sent out invites to people she's close to. I barely
