Chapter 61 The QuickieNIA’S POVI tilted my head to the side, watching the moon shine on Gael's face. I wish there were a better way to explain my present obsession with him. Still, it's safe to say he is more into me than I am. At every chance he gets, Gael is either at my doorstep or the clinic. And if he is not physically available, he calls or texts. I don't know how long this would go on. But if it stops, I might lose my mind.“What's on your mind?” He asked, leaning closer to kiss my nape.I giggled, rubbing my forehead against his nose. “A lot. You think you want to hear it?”“Sure.”I cleared my throat and sat up. “I don't exactly know how to put this, but I hope it won't get you angry. It is just me admitting to my feelings. We have been together for over a week now, and I don't know what I am to you precisely.” Gael blinked slowly, and I thought he was about to say something, but he was only listening. I fidgeted with my fingers, hoping I didn't say something to annoy him.

Chapter 63 Her loverAUTHOR’S POVGemma kissed her teeth for the umpteenth time in five seconds. Her head kept reeling with Gael's words. There is no way he would mean something like that, not after all these years that she has put up with his stupid ass. Gael must think he can do whatever he wants with anyone. But it will be over her dead body. No one will make a fool of her, that is certain.“How long do you intend to be this moody? All through the sex, you practically laid stiff like a log of wood. I shouldn't have to suffer for a fool's mistake.” Zac whined, kissing her bare shoulder.She shrugged him off. “Haven’t you had enough?”“That question should be directed at you. Until when do you intend to keep this up.”“Shut it!” She growled, glaring hard at him. “If you think I am here because I have forgiven you for that stunt you pulled off, then you are mistaken.”Zac hit his fist on the bed angrily. He has been with Gemma for years, long before she started aiming to remain by Alph

Chapter 65 Her deceitAUTHOR’S POVStephanie hit her foot anxiously as she stared at the clinic building. She had been waiting for Nia to come back from wherever she went for close to an hour. The assistants said Nia would be back soon. However, Stephanie was beginning to run out of patience. Stephanie remembered the last time she had arrived here to get money from Nia and how she and Mindy had ended up getting locked up by the Alpha all because of a homeless girl she had looked after with her hard-earned money. Her coming here today is her risking everything to get back at Nia. Even though the Alpha has warned her off, Stephanie hasn't forgotten the humiliation she had to suffer and how many of her socialite friends have ousted her from their gathering because of what happened. She kissed her teeth in irritation when she rechecked the time and noticed how much time had passed. “What are you doing here?” Nia asked behind her. She had her guard up in case the older lady intended to pu

Chapter 67 The RestitutionAUTHOR’S POV“Please tell me this is a joke, Stephanie,” Levi stated, looking pale. He kept running his hands through his hair while mumbling to himself.Stephanie looked unfazed as she crossed her legs, blowing at her manicured nails. She had kept the secret of what she did to Nia from her husband the day before and wouldn't have said anything if the news of the healer getting poisoned didn't circulate the pack so fast.“I should have known you were up to no good when you left the house that day without saying exactly where. You do know you will get arrested for this?” He rebuked.She hissed. “Why would anyone arrest me? I heard nobody had been allowed into her room. She is probably dead by now. No witness can admit to me poisoning her. You have nothing to worry about.”Levi slumped into the couch, feeling his chest tighten. “Why did you have to do such an evil act? What did the poor girl ever do to you?”“That poor girl is an ungrateful brat after everythi

Chapter 69 Cutting tiesNIA’S POVFinding myself in front of this house after such a long time has me feeling nostalgic. It was the house that had sheltered me after my father died. For years, all I wanted was an escape. Even though I had cursed my fate for being sold off to the Alpha, I am grateful now that I have my life out together. They did me a favor, and I will not let spite prevent me from admitting to that.I glanced down at the document in my hand.Ezra had gotten it for me as promised. And I have a promise to keep to Gael. Once I have severed my ties with this family, finally, I can get to move on with my life and also admit the truth to Gael. He is dying to know, and I would be wrong to keep the truth from him any longer.Swallowing hard, I stepped on the porch and pressed the bell. Holding my breath, I waited patiently for the door to open. Caleb stood behind the door with a grateful smile on his face. I nodded at him and entered. Nothing much has changed since I left. I
