The Alpha's Reluctant Bride CHAPTER 30: My Heart
-=Martina's Point of View=-"I know what I have to do!"That is the thought that kept running through my mind while waiting for Saturday to come. There were some instances where I felt my resolve was weakening, but when I remembered my talk with my dad, that resolve suddenly returned.I admit, there were times when I found myself thinking of a possible excuse or even an alibi just to justify my continuing to see Kian, but the more I thought about it, the clearer it became that I needed to stop seeing Kian.We agreed to be friends, but based on how our relationship escalated weakly, it would only be a matter of time before we eventually fell for each other, and it was also possible that I might commit adultery in the end.It isn’t fair for my husband; yeah, we married without really any feelings for each other, but during my stay on this island, I somehow got to know him a bit. I learned how caring and nice Zion was to the residents of this island, and he didn’t deserve to be cheated
The Alpha's Reluctant Bride CHAPTER 31: I Love You
-=Martina's Point of View=-The rain was pouring hard, making it hard for me to walk and navigate to where we usually meet, and it took me ten minutes to get to my usual two to three-minute walk to that spot.I know what I was doing was wrong, but I don’t care anymore. I don’t think I could bear not to see Kian anymore.My mind is telling me to turn around and just forget about him completely, but my heart is screaming, wanting to be with Kian.This might be crazy, but even though I just met him not too long ago, I couldn’t deny the feelings that I have for him.I met different men, and some of them are decent, but nobody could make my heart flutter just as Kian could easily make my heart beat fast, and I would be damned if I’m just going to let that man go.I know that what I was going to do was consider it a sin already, but this is the sin I was willing to commit so I could be happy with the man I truly love.Yes, I admit it, just for a short time, I fell in love with Kian. I’m no
The Alpha's Reluctant Bride CHAPTER 32: Misconception
-=Martina's Point of View=-"I told you to return to the castle, and yet you insisted on coming with me to my home."I could hear the frustration in Kian's voice as we continued walking to his home. He told me to go back to the castle and change, but no, I insisted on going to his place.Now that I decided to be with him, there was no way I would leave him, not even tonight.I felt so free after following what my heart wanted, and in my heart, I know that I made the right decision by having my heart decide on what I needed to do, but behind that lingers the guilt that I know will never disappear.I betrayed Zion, and no explanation would justify what I did. I'm already married, and yet, I decided to be with another man, a man who may be his son.I know what is right and wrong, but still, I went ahead and did something that all people will think is wrong and a sin, but in my heart, being with Kian felt like the most righteous thing I have ever done.I couldn't stop myself from looking
The Alpha's Reluctant Bride CHAPTER 33: Going Back
-=Martina's Point of View=-"Are you sure you're alright? Your face is really red," I heard Kian ask for maybe the fourth time now.We were having a late dinner after we were done showering and changing into dry clothes, and ever since that obscene thought crossed my mind, I couldn't stop my face from getting red whenever I remembered the mistake I had earlier."Of course!" I forcefully said.I had honestly thought he was about to move in for a kiss earlier, only to realize that his true aim was to relish the dinner he had cooked for us. That disappointing moment appeared to be imprinted in my memory, refusing to fade.Kian didn't intentionally give me the wrong impression, as I realize now. It was just my irrational imagination running wild. In my moment of vulnerability, I entertained the idea that I may be irresistibly appealing, only to be rudely woken by the sobering reality that I was simply indulged in conceit."Am I not sexy enough?" I thought to myself."Are you sure? You're.
The Alpha's Reluctant Bride CHAPTER 34: No One Needs to Know
-=Martina's Point of View=-"Don't you want me anymore?" I asked with a trembling voice as his words finally registered in my mind.I couldn't accept that after all the trouble I went through, it would just end up with him asking me to go back to the castle, and I was guessing that he would tell me next to forget about him."What? What do you..." He asked, looking confused, and for some reason, a few seconds later, his face shone as if finally realizing what I said, which, to be honest, I didn't know how my question could be confusing."Do you think I was trying to get rid of you?" he asked."Isn't that what you meant when you told me that I needed to go back to the castle?""You're mistaken, Martina. Yes, I wanted you to go back to the castle so you could have a better rest and also so you could still proceed with your role as the island's mistress," he explained, which still didn't make sense to me."I still don't understand," I said."What I want you to do is pretend that this didn
The Alpha's Reluctant Bride CHAPTER 35: Around Him
-=Martina's Point of View=-“Did you hear anything from Zion?” I asked Zeke as I was having my breakfast.It has been four months since he left for some medical reason, and until now, I still haven’t had the chance to talk to him. When I asked Zeke, he just kept on telling me not to worry about Zion, but four months had already passed, and he also said that he didn’t have any updates yet about Zion, but he doesn’t appear to be worried, which really confuses me.“I’m sorry, mistress, but Master Zion still didn’t contact me,” he said apologetically.“Why do I feel like you were not worried at all? The last time you heard from him was when I was able to talk to my dad and confirm that Zion was indeed helping my dad recover, but after that, there was no news about him.My words probably insulted Zeke because the expression on his face became stern, but being professional, he still speaks in a courteous manner.“Please rest assured that I care about Master Zion, and the reason why I didn’
The Alpha's Reluctant Bride CHAPTER 36: Understanding Boyfriend
-=Martina's Point of View=-The following day, I accompanied Annie to where her electric bike was parked; she was already ready to leave, and all her belongings were tightly arranged on her bike."I will be taking my leave now, Martina, and I expected you to do what you promised," she said, smiling, but beneath that calm voice, I could detect a hint of threat. I just laughed at her and told her to expect me later that night once I was done with whatever I needed to do."Can you just finish it now, so we can go together instead of you going at night?" she asked."It would take some time for me to finish my business, and instead of you waiting for me, just go ahead and enjoy your rest day; I will follow later, I promise," I said, adding the last part to put her mind at ease."Ok, but whatever happens, text me, ok?" she asked."That I can do, and see you later," I said.She didn't stay that long and left, and I waited for her to completely disappear from my sight before finally deciding
The Alpha's Reluctant Bride CHAPTER 37: Another Nuisance
-=Martina's Point of View=-Honestly, I didn't know that I would be having a blast while staying in Annie's town. I was worried about how I could act like nothing was bothering me, considering that I really wanted to be with Kian at first. Still, after having another dinner with Annie's family and spending time talking about anything under the sun, I found myself really enjoying my time here.Listening to Mr. and Mrs. Thomas talk about their daughter made me know more about Annie, and I could tell that I was so lucky to have a friend like Annie."I'm lucky to have Annie with me in the castle," I said.I didn't elaborate on how I was lucky to have her with me, since it was something personal, and I didn't want them to know of my circumstance of being married to Zion.It was around ten when we all finally decided to go to sleep, but before going to bed, I decided to take a quick shower before sleeping."Aren't you going to take a shower?" I asked when Annie didn't show any indication of
