“Shit! What makes you think we have sex? Of course! I don’t have the time to have sex with a woman!” He shrieked, sounded defensive, as if he were disgusted to think he had sex with me. I laughed so hard because I was only making fun of him. Ashton’s face turned sour, like he couldn’t believe he was patiently talking to me. Well, I guessed he might be cringing right now. “Hey! Of course I know. Haha, I don’t like it when you want me to act as if I’m a fortune teller. All right, I notice you and my sons have the same face. That’s the reason why I was stunned when I first saw you. Did you remember you’re the one who’s checking the border that night? I thought King Edward found me at that moment.” I pursed my lips as I uttered those words. He nodded his head as if he understood what I meant to him. He licked his lips before he gazed at our surroundings. “It’s you who saved me that night. I’m thankful you helped me when I passed out.” I added. The smile on his face faded. He swallowed
“Alpha, your question makes me more embarrassed because I’m not a woman. I don’t think I can give you an opinion from a woman’s perspective. It’s possible Alpha Gunner is a fine man for me, but turn not based on your opinion.” Wayne exclaimed, hiding his anxiousness because he wasn’t prepared for what I had asked him. I nodded my head because I understood his point, but I thought he was telling me those words because he didn’t want me to think he liked Alpha Gunner for me. He already stated that he thought of him as a good man. Nothing more and nothing less, but he didn’t want those words to come out of his lips intentionally. I didn’t know he had this kind of ability to speak, which made Ashton warn me about him. “Yeah, you’re right. Do you think he’s a good man? I’m a mother of two children, and I don’t think he will accept me, especially when I have extra baggage. I believe if he wants me, then he will get my children, too.” I muttered as if I were having a good time talking to h
What Alice had told me had a strange impact on my sister. I had feelings for King Edward when I was away with him but sometimes, I did think I had a painful feeling whenever I was thinking about him because I was pregnant. Aside from that, I already moved on which I was certain about.‘You're fucking with me, Alice. What makes you think I have the slightest feelings for him? I'm only sad whenever I'm thinking about Kairo and Atticus. I don't want them to feel I'm not putting some effort to have a peaceful relationship with their father.’ I responded, and I felt I sounded defensive because Alice laughed at me, mocking me as if she heard some jokes.‘All right, if you want to think that way, then so be it. Ashianna, there's nothing if you become honest with yourself. It's only free.’ ‘Yeah, right, but why you're pushing me to think I have feelings for him? In fact, you're unfaithful. I recall you're flirty when it comes to Harvey and Marcus, too. It's weird when you acted differently t
“Alpha, you ask for my presence. I heard you want to talk to me.” Ashton greeted me as I was watching the water from the falls flow down from the lake. He sounded confused but he waited for me to tell him what was the purpose of our sudden meeting.The fact I was hesitant to do what my father had told me made me want to ask Ashton about my plan. I thought about his safety first and if he was to take a risk. I didn't know if already forgave King Edward for what he had done to his family.If he agreed to what I wanted, then I would continue what I promised to Kairo and Atticus. However, if he didn't want to do the rest, then I respected his decision. I didn't want to force him because his safety was the most essential of this game.Perhaps, I would seek an excuse from my parents once Kairo and Atticus keep asking me about their father. My mother was heartbroken to see their grandchildren being sad but they could help me to explain that I might take a long time to introduce them to him.
“What do you mean, Wayne? I don't see any reason for me not to trust him. I watched him how to take care of my children, and he's been attached to them.” I answered as my eyes became like daggers throwing at him.He swallowed hard like he didn't expect me to ask him why he thought that way. It seemed he felt so full of himself after he successfully pushed Alpha Gunner for me.I still hoped Wayne would change so that he might see I was giving him a chance to turn back on me and give me his trust. I wouldn't punish him because I didn't see him talking with Gunner whenever he wasn't with me. I wasn't confrontation but I would remain skeptical.“Alpha, the councils might plotted a nanny in this pack. I don't think it's a great choice to ask a nanny to take care of them. Aside from that, Kairo and Atticus are the future rules of our pack, I'm only concerned about their safety.” Wayne uttered but still, he lacked common sense. “Wayne, if you think he's a bad guy then you better prove it.
My father didn't move on and continued bringing up Miguel. He was against the idea especially Miguel was known as his rival to his mother's heart. However, Miguel was good at them but still, he was a worried and insecure man.“You're my daughter. I can't believe you dare to decide something without informing me. Did you even know how I became stupid?” he snarled after I explained to him why I asked Miguel to act as my lover. I heard my mother laugh, which led her to receive a deadly gaze from my father. He gnashed his teeth as he growled before he shook his head. He hardly sighed and it seemed he wanted to tell me something he knew.“Dad, what is it? It's better if you will tell whatever you need to.” I uttered softly. My mother shook her head before she walked closer to my father, and massaged his shoulder.“Honey, there's a reason why we broke up. It's not because he's a jerk but because of his family. I know Miguel already found his mate, but he's scared to take a risk for their s
“I know you will never believe me but I'm telling you the truth. Ashianna, I know I'm always harsh on you, and that is because I need to maintain my attitude as one of the trusted men of King Edward. I don't want him to be disappointed in me but...” he paused, as his eyes flickered once again. He seemed he didn't want to tell me about his secret but he didn't have a choice.“I can't stop myself from falling in love with you,” he added, making me shocked and step back. His eyes formed tears before he sighed in relief as if he was glad he finally informed him about his feelings.“W-What?” I asked. I didn't know what I was going to say but he laughed at me.“I'm ready to help you because I want you all by myself. Seriously, despite they bullied you I know you're quite special. You got my attention from the moment you tried to escape when you fell from the cliff.” he whispered like he was ashamed of what he had been telling me. He licked his lips before he lowered his head to look at me.
“Mom, where are you going? I don't see Wayne until now.” I heard Atticus, complaining he couldn't find Wayne even though he strolled around the pack.As I heard Wayne's name, a pain struck in my heart once again. I felt guilty because I became heartless towards him but I let him betray me and acted like he was a trusted man while he was in front of me, I would have him the chance to use my twins as a hostage.“Atticus, why are you always asking? I thought you would tell me something to Mom?” It was Kairo, who seemed serious when our eyes met. Atticus pouted his lips before he ran fast towards me.“Mom, is it true you want us to stay with Dad? I don't want to believe in Kairo because he's always making fun of me.” Atticus whispered but Kairo still heard what he was saying. I laughed loudly before I took him, and carried him like he was a baby.“Yes, honey. I will give you two a chance to be with your Dad but there's a rules I need you to obey. First, no one will ever know you two are h
