Chapter 49: The Friends
Emery
I was biting my nails and bouncing my leg while waiting for Luna Liliana to come to our house. I sent her the location of the cottage, and we were now waiting for her to arrive. Arlo was sitting next to me, holding my hand. He must have sensed that something was wrong. I squeezed his hands and gave him a forced smile, but he didn’t seem convinced.“Don’t be afraid, mommy. I will fight the monsters for you.” He said as he gave me a kiss on the cheek. My anxiety alleviated for a bit as I kissed his cheeks back.“I’m sure that you will, Arlo. I’m sure that you will.”The doorbell rang, and I hurriedly got up from the couch. I opened the door and saw Luna Liliana in her pajamas, standing worriedly in the cold night. Just by the sight of her alone, I broke down into tears. I didn’t even know that I was bottling up such emotion until now.A hand caressed my hair, but it wasn’t Luna Liliana’s delicate and warm hands

EmeryI twisted and turned in my bed, trying to fall into uninterrupted sleep. I pulled the blanket up to my face and breathed in deeply. ‘Come on, sleep. Count sheep. Take deep breaths. That’s right. Fuck.’I removed the blanket from my body and blew away the strands of hair that covered my face. I looked at Arlo next to me. He was sleeping deeply, with some drool dripping from the side of his mouth. I smiled and let him be.I carefully and quietly got off the bed and decided to get some fresh air. My throat is parched anyway, so I think a trip to the kitchen could help me sleep better. I wore my soft bunny slippers and went down to the kitchen.I fetched some warm water from the dispenser and drank it all in one go. Ahh, that feels good. I closed my eyes and relished the warm liquid streaming down my throat.“You’re still up?”I choked, causing me to cough. The person

Amelia I looked at my sexy figure in the mirror, satisfied with the way I looked tonight. I was in a vacant bedroom, getting ready to go out once again. I put on a bright red dress paired with black heels and curled my hair to give it that messy look. I slathered on some red lipstick and spritzed a rose-scented perfume on the warm points of my body. I smacked my lips together and gave myself a little wink. Damn, I look good. I took a taxi bound to the human territory and went down in front of a club. I’ve been going here for the past few months because I’ve been feeling restricted in the packhouse. Ever since I gave birth to that damn child, I never got the chance to do something for myself. It’s always about him! What about my needs? I’ve been getting more and more frustrated since last year because Kairo won’t give me the fucking Luna position. I’ve impressed Kairo for all these years with my strength just so I could take that damn p
The Alpha's Hidden Child Chapter 52: The True Mate
EmeryI groaned in pain as I held my head. Why the hell is it hurting so much? I sat up quietly and saw that Arlo was still sleeping next to me. My mouth had a bitter taste in it, and my throat felt drier than the Sahara desert.What happened yesterday?I just recall going down to get some water and fresh air when…Oh fuck, that’s right. I drank with Kairo! I hit my head, which made me wince in pain, but I deserved it. Didn’t I promise myself to stay away from him? I’m so stupid! I don’t even remember the details of yesterday’s event. I just remember going down, then Kairo suddenly appeared behind me. I was tempted by the ice-cold beer, so I reluctantly went and had a drink with him. We talked about our well-being, his happiness; then I said something about…Heck, I can’t remember.My head was throbbing even harder from all the thinking, so I closed my eyes for a moment. I glanced at th
The Alpha's Hidden Child Chapter 53: The Holidays
Long chapter ahead!EmeryI went out on a run to get rid of some of my thoughts and to get my body back into shape. Although I am still stronger now, I’m still not at the level of when I was competing in the den. I was tired, and my sweat was dripping down on the ground, but I pushed my limits and ran until I was out of my breath.I stopped for a while to catch my breath, but the thought of knowing Amelia’s true mate kept creeping into my mind. Withstanding all of the tiredness that I felt, I ran even harder than I did.After a two-hour run, I finally decided to go back to the packhouse. I left when Arlo was sleeping, so I’m assuming that he’s probably awake by now.The country is currently under a national holiday, so Arlo and Devyn are at home most of the time. Most workers are also taking a one-week break because of the holidays. I hastened my steps so I could attend to Arlo before he could wake up.I opened the fr
The Alpha's Hidden Child Chapter 54: The Bikini
EmeryI stood in the small cubicle all alone, hesitating whether I should change into this damn piece of cloth or if I should just go out in my underwear.Granted that they really weren’t much different from each other, for they both unnecessarily exposed my body parts.I observed the “swimsuit,” and it was pleasantly appealing. Just not for me. It’s a white triangle-top bikini with intricate back work, and its strings would be wrapping around the ribs. The bottoms were simple slip-ons with tied ribbons on the side. I also glanced at my nude underwear and sighed.If I were to choose from these two outfits, then I’d just go with the white one. ‘Fuck,’ I muttered under my breath and reluctantly changed into the white bikini.There was no mirror present inside the cubicle, so I don’t really know what I look like right now. I just made sure that everything was tucked in place
The Alpha's Hidden Child Chapter 55: The Reveal
EmeryThe Holidays were now over, and I was already back at work. Arlo was also back in school. Since we had a lot of leftover work from the one-week break, Luna Liliana asked us to stay a little bit later in the babysitting service. I didn’t have the conscience to refuse her since she gave us the opportunity to stay at the lakehouse, and she also took care of Arlo and Devyn when we were gone.I couldn’t fetch Arlo from school, so I asked Desiree a favor if she could be the one to go in lieu of me. It’s a good thing that she agreed right away. Amelia is the only other person I know who's staying in the house right now, and I don’t want to ask her any favors.It was already 3 PM when we were finally done with all the work. I stretched my back as I stood up, preparing to leave.“Long day, huh? Are you going home now?” My co-worker asked.I nodded. “Arlo’s all alone in the house since the friend I asked
The Alpha's Hidden Child Chapter 56: The Reconciliation
Emery“What did you just say?”We both looked toward the direction of the person who just spoke and froze. Talk about perfect timing!“What did you just say, Amelia?” Kairo exclaimed, his voice shaking the entire room.“I—I—Uh—We were just joking around? Right, Emery?” She nudged me hard, but I didn’t falter.I looked at her incredulously, “I don’t recall us joking, Amelia. If I heard it right, you were mocking me to tell the secret that you’ve been trying to hide for all these years. You know, I already told you to tone your voice down when you’re speaking. You never really know who’s going to hear the contents of our conversation.” I said seriously.She looked at me with a heated glare and tightly held my hands, her nails embedding into my palms.She started talking in an overly-sweet voice, “Babe! Don’t believe her. She
The Alpha's Hidden Child Chapter 57: The Celebration
Emery“Arlo, remember when you asked me for your real daddy?”Arlo looked confused as to why I was asking this question, but he nodded his head regardless.“It’s okay even if I don’t have a real daddy, mommy. I am happy with you. I am also happy because I have my aunties and uncles, grandma, Devyn, and uncle Kairo!”He looked at Kairo with a toothless smile. “Uncle Kairo can be my daddy even if I don’t have a real daddy! I already love him like a real daddy.” He hugged Kairo’s neck with his short arms.I was shocked when a tear suddenly fell from Kairo’s eyes, and I heard him sniffle next to me. I held onto his shoulder and forced him to look at me while Arlo continued to hug him. “Are you crying?” I asked.He shook his head, but another tear fell from his eye. I rubbed his shoulder and gave him a comforting smile. I think this is the first time that I have seen hi
