Amanah“As long as it’s my baby you’re carrying, you belong to only me. You’re mine,” I stared at Miall, shocked. Oh wow. I had lost all composure. His fingers gripped my chin, and I bit my lip nervously.Why the hell is it exciting me? Could he hear how loud my heart was beating against my chest? I must be dreaming because he would never say that, ever!“Anyway, your girlfriend was here looking for you,” I pushed his fingers away from my face and looked away from him. I crossed my arms over my chest as I walked to the baby’s room. My knees were shaking, and I— damn! Miall could easily bed me if he wished to, and I wouldn't object—wait a minute, Miall hadn't been around for two weeks, and now he thought he could pull this male authority, territorial, possessive stunt on me? Absolutely not!“You know, if you’re going to disappear on her, you should at least tell her where you’re going. I hate being bothered,” I rolled my eyes as I pushed open the door. Why won't my knees stop shaking?
I wasn’t angry with Miall anymore; in fact, I liked the fact that he came to spend the rest of the day with me; even though he acted like an ass, it was nice being around him.He's definitely not good for my heart.I finished bathing and got dressed in my pyjamas. Walking into my room, I found Miall sitting on the bed, looking at the scan. Had he been staring at it this entire time? I climbed on the bed behind him and peeked over his shoulder.“What gender do you think it is?” I asked him, and he looked at me and shrugged. I knew he wanted to say something, but he also didn't want to say anything wrong. His purple eyes looked into mine for a second, and I—is this what people mean when they say someone took their breath away? Why did he have to be this beautiful? His scent wafted through my nostrils, and I had already fallen into a trap laid by his eyes. Why do they look so soft today? His canines cutely showed as he smiled; he genuinely looked happy, and it made me feel like I was fal
MiallI sat in my office, mindlessly staring at the wall. My fingers lightly tapped my bottom lip, and I groaned, throwing my head back. Why did I kiss her?It was not as if I didn’t enjoy it; as a matter of fact, I loved it, but I told her that we should be friends, and then I was the one who initiated the kiss with her, feeling her body flushed against mine with her legs wrapped around my waist made me painfully throb.What's wrong with me?Thinking about that kiss was getting me nowhere. I turned my chair around and faced the bright monitor, with my work screaming at me to get it done. Being Alpha wasn’t as easy as my father made it out to be, and even though my mother helped when she could, I still couldn't get used to the amount of work I needed to do here.I enjoyed it, but dammit, my schedule just kept on growing.Maybe I should go see Amanah? I needed a break either way. I should check up on her and our baby to ensure everything was still okay with them. Willow wouldn't mind th
I walked down the stairs after getting dressed; what Miall had just done in that room was still fresh in my mind; what was it with that look? Just thinking about it gave me goosebumps.“Did she kiss you again?” Malakhi asked and I wondered how he found out about what happened, did Miall tell him? Of course, who else would have? I was quite sure Nyleve didn’t see anything happen, nor was she suspicious.It all had to be, Miall. Who knew he had a loose mouth?“No, I didn’t, and stop eating my guests' fruits!” I scolded as I headed to the door. Why was I so calm about this?Ignorance is bliss.“Guest?” Miall asked as he got up and walked towards me with his arms crossed against his chest, damn.“Yes, my tutor,” I smiled as I opened the door, and he stood there.“Morning, I’m Michael Sage,” he said with an irresistible smile. Oh, he's pretty.It felt like time stopped as I stared at him, his eyes looked almost similar to Anin’s but his were a bit of an electric blue while Anin’s were an ic
“What? Are you jealous?” I asked as I turned to look at him. Woah, his eyes were darker, and he was wearing that scowl so well. He looked like a baby about to throw a tantrum. “You are?” I squeaked. How amazing would it be if he were jealous?His face slowly welcomed a smile, and he said the words I was expecting more or less, but it did suck to hear him say that. “Of course not; I have a girlfriend,” he said, but his arm held my waist tightly while my feet dangled below me.For someone with a girlfriend, he sure was excited behind me.“How lucky you are,” I smiled, pushing his arm off. “Impudent bastard,” I grumbled as I walked into the kitchen to make tea. “You sure you don’t want tea, Mr Sage?” I asked through the wall opening.“I think I’ll have some now, please,” he said, and I nodded. The poor guy looked uncomfortable. It was Miall's fault.“I’ll have some, too,” Malakhi said, sitting beside Michael, his eyes roaming Michael as if he were threatening him.Why was he such a bully?
I sat in the kitchen watching Nyleve argue with Miall. It was always comical to see them behave this way, and it was all because of me. As I recall the day the conversation began, a smile crept its way onto my face.Michael's session with me had just ended, and it was time for him to leave. Nyleve had entered the house around thirty minutes ago fuming, something that happened at the council's meeting that she didn’t want me hearing about but I didn’t mind, I wasn’t interested.The council was real weird, and I wanted to stay far away from them.I helped Michael pack his stationary while Miall, Malakhi and Nyleve whispered in the kitchen. I admit I wasn’t interested, but seeing them whispering felt so taboo.“So, what are they saying?” I leaned in closer to Michael. So maybe I was a tad bit interested.“Oh no, that wouldn’t be respectful of me to listen in on their conversation,” he blushed embarrassedly, and I rolled my eyes.“Look, it’s not listening in on their conversation if you ca
Oh, my fucking gosh! I couldn't remember the last time I was this excited, but I couldn’t wait for tonight! I was finally having a party, that was for me! Organised for me, people who were coming to celebrate me!This felt unreal.Tonight was finally my welcoming party, after at least what I think had been three months, but they say it had just been almost two; okay... but the point was the weekend was finally here!Malakhi had told me almost every story of every party they have here, from welcoming parties, crowning parties, retirement parties, and so many parties that seemed awesome to be at, and I just couldn’t wait; it was finally my turn to get some sort of fun time here!Don’t get me wrong, hanging out with Anin was total crazy fun; there was a good time guaranteed with her around, but sometimes I wished I wasn't so pregnant so that I could experience the great fun. I wanted to get drunk in Nioz, and I was pretty sure it was a blast.But besides hanging out with Anin, there was s
MiallPer my mother's instructions, Malakhi and I waited downstairs for the girls. It took them forever to get ready, and I started to get bored. Malakhi seemed excited despite stuffing himself with Amanah’s fruits. We both sat on the island tools, watching Malakhi choose and pick which fruit he would shove in his mouth.“Do you really want to go through it again with Amanah?” I asked as I leaned against my fist, watching him peel an orange, as she called it. It was orange in colour, which was not very creative of her people.“Huh, what do you mean?” He asked with his mouth full, and I shook my head. “You’re eating her fruits again,” I pointed out, and he looked at his hand, shrugging. “So?” He questioned, biting into the orange without separating the segments as Amanah did; what kind of animal was he? “You really don’t care, or are you hoping she doesn’t notice?” I asked, amused, as I got up and stretched my arms over my head, I was itching for a run, but Orion was still on a no-t
