*****Alpha Theo's POV****I stared at my mate as she made us lunch. I just couldn't get my eyes off her for even a minute. Talking about if she's been treated poorly, I don't think she was. She seemed quite comfortable and happy. This feeling made me feel some form of relief. Though the reason for her abduction was all selfish reasons, the fact that she's happy, made me feel relieved. Before getting into the house, Chris and I had decided, and that was not to let Tihana notice something was wrong. I don't know how I'm going to cover this up to the end. But presently, what mattered was her happiness. I can't even begin to think about how sad she would become, knowing she hadn't been with me these past months, but was rather with Adam. Tihana would be so hurt. And I just can't let her pass through that pain. So, the decision we made was for me to continue acting like I've been the one with these few months. This was an impromptu decision, but this is the best way to handle these matte
*****Tihana's POV****Theo and I had the best sex to remember. It was more like the first time we had sex. I could tell just how much he had missed me. I almost thought that he didn't want to have sex with me again. Probably because he wasn't attracted to me, or maybe there was a woman. Asides that, I could tell that he was different this time. Though I can't wrap my hands around the reason I felt this way, it's just my feelings. I wrapped my arms around him and looked up at him. I smiled, seeing just how peaceful he looked. Ever since we began this honeymoon, I'm uncertain if I've seen him this relaxed in a long time. He looked so calm and peaceful, which made me wonder what he had been working on these past weeks that got him so occupied to the point of not getting a good sleep. Just as I laid my head on his chest, he stirred. I quickly raised my gaze up at him and saw him staring down at me. “My love, you're awake?” He asked with a gruff voice and sleepy eyes. “Yea, been awake
*****Tihana's POV****Having dinner with the whole family was fun. Everyone seemed to be overly excited to see me, mostly. I'm sure they saw Theo often and not me, they could be the reason they looked so happy to see me. “Tihana, you should eat more, I want to see you looking even more healthy,” Alpha Stone said with quite a bright smile. Alpha Stone has always been good to me, even way before now. But now, I can't even begin to describe this adoration in his eyes. I felt like a child who had been away from home for a very long time. Everyone seemed so overly excited to see me, and that included the pack members. I wish I understood why they are this happy to see me. This was because when I became Luna, I didn't get this much attention from them. Maybe they missed me, perhaps, I said to myself, smiling inwardly. Taking a good look at the large dinning, I noticed that one person was missing, and that was Adam. I knew the table was incomplete, but couldn't think of who was missing u
*****Julia's POV****I sat in the corner of the bar and filled my glasses. I guess this is the only thing I could do for now. Nothing seemed to interest me again. It's been more than a week since I told Alpha Theo that I will come around. But up to this very moment, I don't think I can ever come around. I feel so terrible and hurt. Nothing seemed to work for me at this moment. I took another glass, while trying to keep my eyes open. I can't tell how long I've been drinking for, but I know I'm getting quite tipsy. “Hey, Miss Julia, why are you drinking alone? Mind if I join you?” I took my gaze up to see who it was. To my greatest surprise, it was Rawling. I took my gaze away from him, not, minding the fact that he had actually asked me a question. “No, thank you,” I muttered the words without looking in his direction. “Miss Julia, it's really shocking to see you this way. Could it be that your dad is giving you a hard time again, or did you get dumped?”I flipped at his last wor
*****Tihana's POV*****I stared at my mom's pictures. The more I stared at them, the more I discovered just how identical we are. “Aunt, is it just me, or do I look like my mom?”My aunt smiled brightly at me. “It's not just you, my dear. You are the spitting image of your mom. If only she had been alive, I'm sure everyone would have thought you both were twins. Because you look so much alike. Hearing this from my Aunt made me feel closer to my mom. Though I have never met her before, seeing her pictures and knowing just how much we look alike made me feel like my mom was already here with me. I wonder if she's happy wherever she may be, knowing the fact that she has a daughter who looks so much like her.“I wish my mom was still alive,” I muttered. I had never felt like I missed my mom until now. Seeing her pictures made me feel like I had actually missed a lot. “My dear, your mom was gorgeous just as you are, and she was nice as well.”I could tell. I could see it in her eyes th
*****Tihana's POV****I had heard a lot about this miss Julia and how she had become close to my mate. When I saw her for the first time, I couldn't tell, but there's just something about her, I couldn't quite wrap my hands on. She looked simple and beautiful as well. When we shook hands, I could tell there's a little uneasy feeling from my end. I guess it's because I was only seeing her for the first time. It can't be something serious. “Now that you both have met, I guess it's time to let the ladies bond. Meanwhile, my Luna will be joining us in making preparations for the reconciliation ceremony.”“Oh, that'd be great. I guess I'll have to borrow the Luna more often for some ladies talk,” Miss Julia said, with a smiling face.“I'm sure she'd be more than willing to join you,” Theo said, holding me close. “I will really love to help out with this great plan for sure. I'm sure it will be fun working with you, Miss Julia.”~After the meeting we both had with Miss Julia, Theo decide
*****Julia's POV***Leaving the grand mansion behind, I sank into the comfort of my car seat, shutting my eyes tightly as I inhaled a deep breath. Goodness! This was far more challenging than I had anticipated. It was excruciatingly difficult, more than I could have ever imagined.Why? Why now?! Why did she have to appear at this very moment? Seeing her only intensified my desire to compete. I mean, I should be willing to give up. There are countless reasons why I should feel inclined to surrender. Yet, there's an indescribable familiarity about her that eludes me. What is it about Ava? Could it be jealousy creeping in? There's something captivating about her eyes, as if I've encountered them somewhere before, but the memory eludes me.I desperately need to delve deep into my thoughts. Luna's presence raises too many suspicions for my liking. And what about her excuse for her absence? A honeymoon? Seriously? It's the most feeble lie ever conceived. I must uncover the truth she's conce
*****Tihana's POV****"Luna, you sent for me,” Anna, one of the omegas who attended to me, said as she walked into the room.”“Anna, what is this rumor about the Alpha and Miss Julia? Why is everyone talking about them?”“Luna, to be honest, I don't know how to explain this.”“You need to tell me everything you know, and do not lie to me. I want nothing but the truth.”“I will never lie to you, Luna, that I promise you.”“That's good to hear. So, let's hear what you have to say about this.”“Well, the thing is, ever since your disappearance,”I creased my brow instantly at the word Anna used. When she noticed my expression, she suddenly went wide. “Please, pardon me, Luna. I mean to say, ever since you left the pack, miss Julia has been a regular visitor. Though, we have no idea what she discusses with the Alpha behind closed doors. There was once, Alpha Theo and beta Adam had a huge fight. This happened more than once, though.”“What? What was this fight all about?” I asked curiousl
