Becoming The Alpha's Lover Seventy Eight
ARABELLA POVMrs. Dingy was waiting for me when I exited the theatre room. I quickly took off my gloves and washed my hands, forcing myself to stop from touching my face. I’m going to have to shower later, but first I needed to speak to her. To think that I overestimated her and my judgment was depressing. That child could have died from the little narrow time that she was wasting.“Dr. Emma!” she gushed immediately she saw me, her hands fluttering aimlessly in the air. “Please how is she? Will she survive?”“If she doesn’t, it’ll be entirely your fault.”She immediately paled at my words. I won’t take it back; that child was so very close to death, so very close. She had nearly crossed over if not for the standby machines that we had at hand. At least the Alpha of the pack made sure to provide them with the necessary equipment to control incidents like these, but I guess you cannot control a mother’s stupidity. “I’m so sorry,” the woman said “I didn’t mean to upset you.”“No,” I re

ARABELLA POVI turned my face away before his lips could touch mine. Then I swooped down under his armpit in his brief moment of shock and escaped from him. Rhys turned around, a sly smile on his face. I did not like it, not one bit. I knew what he was thinking; I could practically smell the arousal on it. However, this was not what I wanted, not now, not here, and not ever.“Emma,” Rhys murmured. “Am i blind or did you just avoid me?”“You’re very much clear eyed,” I replied.“So you are avoiding me.”“I just told you that your wife is unwell and you went straight to kissing me, in her near presence!”“I don’t hear her voice, so I think she’s not home.”“Why do you think the servants are avoiding this floor?” I asked ironically. “Because she’s obviously home and in a sour mood. Thank the goddess that I had my strong pill to knock her out for a short while and help her regain her senses.”He smiled at me, a long, calculative smile. It was then that I realized that I’d revealed that hi

ARABELLA POV “Rhys, open this door right now! I’m sure you’re in there!”I paused, struck. For a moment I thought desperately of what to do. It would be just amazing to deal with Mia and give her a cup of her own tea, but at the same time it was just too early to reveal myself as an enemy. Rhys looked around, at the edge. He didn’t know what to do, and he was drawn to opening the door. I can’t believe I’m in this sort of situation with him, but I needed to make good use of the situation. Before he stood up, I curved my hand around his neck and kissed him. He stood still, shocked for a second.“What are you doing?” He asked my mouth.“Shhh,” I whispered, roving my hands around his body.He eased back into the bed when I grabbed his dick through the waistband of his underwear that he’d hurriedly put on. Rhys hissed out a breath, helpless as I slowly touched him.“Emma,” he begged.I kissed him, slowly delving into his mouth with my tongue. It was a bold move, one that would surely stri

ARABELLA POVI choked, rising up my hand to hold hers that was tightened around my throat.“What did you just say, Emma?” Mia repeated.I slapped her hand away repeatedly, unable to breathe. She finally understood what I was saying and released my neck slowly, her face flushed with a mixture of anger and suspicion. I shouldn’t have said that, damn me and my stupid mouth!“Emma—”“You really don’t have to strangle me to death because I made a simple statement!’ I said loudly, making sure to put my annoyance into my tone. “If you kill me then how am I supposed to tell you what I mean?”She rubbed her hand against her cloth, as if chastising her hand for their treacherous moves.“I’m sorry, Emma. I didn’t mean to actually…” she stopped, shaking her head. “Listen, Emma, do you know who he’s cheating on me with?”“I don’t.”“Then why will you say that he’s cheating on me?”“Because I know the way a cheating man behaves, Mia. I know their mannerisms and their excuses; I’m well aware of all

ARABELLA POVShit. Shit, shit, shit. This wasn’t what I expected. She would be more suspicious now, because Lily was a very private person and not everyone in the park knew where she lived. Those that knew always sent her a message first, asking her if she would be liable to meet. I was the only one back then who could come and go in her house whenever I pleased. I never really understood why she went about her privacy this way, but now that she had caught me in it, there was no going back. I needed to convince her so that she could n't be more suspicious.I laughed, shrugging and gesturing far apart with my arms. “I asked for directions to your house and some good people showed me the way.”She cocked her brows at me in confusion. “People showed you the way to my house… willingly?”“Well… yes.” Lily leaned on the door frame, watching me wryly. I knew what she was thinking; she was calculating the number of people who would have the audacity to lead me straight to her house. Findi
Becoming The Alpha's Lover Eighty two
Chapter.ARABELLA POV.The ride back home was sort of silent. I didn’t follow the route of her house, knowing that I wanted to take her home to meet my kids. I wanted to catch up with her and at the same time, reform the friendship between them. If Lily had been suspicious of me all these while, then she had a good hunch.“What are you doing back here?” she spoke up in silence. “You were dead, Arabella.” She sniffed and continued. “At first I didn’t want to believe that you were dead, but you were! What happened?”“Can we go to my place and talk?”I asked, knowing that she won’t resist.Lily nodded. She was sniffing back her tears and I was trying so hard not to cry. Like her, no one knew where Dr. Emma (whom I was posing as) lived, so she’d of course want to see.When I got home and opened the door, laughter filled the air as the triplets jumped on me. I laughed, circling them in my arms and playing with their hair.“Mommy, you’re back!” Damon laughed wildly, and then he looked behi

MIA POV I was excited to head the party, but my mind was not at peace. I couldn’t stop thinking about what Emma said about Rhys cheating. No matter how I wanted to push it all behind him, I knew deep down that it was true. Rhys wasn’t my mate, he only believed that he was. What if he had discovered…? No, that wasn’t possible. The witch of a woman assured me that he would never notice the difference since his own maid was dead. I seethed with anger. If Emma was right and he was truly cheating on me, then I would find that girl and she would have the exact same fate as Arabella did. Not only would I kill her, but I would castrate her in front of the others. I started to bite my fingernails, but then I resisted and set my hands beside me. Rhys better not be cheating on me, because then he’d be mocking me. Imagine being the Luna of a pack whose husband was cheating on her. I would not have that. I walked to his room. I was about to knock on his door but then I stopped; what if he had

MIA POVHe pushed my face to the side, refusing to kiss me. The rejection stung deeply, especially when he started to drive right after he swung his face to the side. I relaxed in the passage seat, not saying anything. As much as I wanted to taunt and berate him for what he did, I also could not help it. It was his choice, and he wasn’t in love with me.The ride to the venue was silent and awkward. The minute we arrived, he plastered the biggest fake smile on his face and reached for my hand. I gave in, plastering a smile on my face too; mine more genuine than his.I just wanted him to see that I loved him, and I was the perfect person for him. No one else would love him the way that I did.The venue was beautiful, surprisingly. There was a large white cloth and a projector on the floor, acting as its screen. I looked around for the organizer; I didn’t remember asking for the screen projector to be brought in here. None of the organizers were in sight; they were either fixing somethin

ARABELLA POV“I can’t believe you’re getting married,” Lily said.I turned away from the mirror to face her. “Do you think I could be potentially making a mistake?”Lily laughed and playfully slapped my arm. “Don’t be silly, Arabella. You thought about this for months. You even went through the painful process of telling everyone your identity.”I smiled at the memory of that. “Yeah, it went surprisingly well. People took it in pretty well.”“You know the one they took in the most? The arrest and public death of Mia.”My mood dampened just a bit. My half sister was killed two weeks ago and here I was, getting married to the man she was previously married to. Rhys asked me not to overthink it as he wasn’t even hers to begin with, and I was working towards that step. I turned to Lily again.“Do you think James and Jenny would make it? They promised that they would show up today and they’re not here yet.”Lily slapped her forehead in embarrassment. She’s been slapping a lot of things lat

RHYS POVI stood outside the boys’ quarters, thinking of how best to go over this. If Jack wanted us to talk about whatever he wanted to talk about, then this was a big secret opener. I was dying to see just how much secret he was willing to uncover, and that included Mia.She was dancing when I stepped into her room. As always, it was open and inviting, as if she was waiting for the day when I would finally accept her. Was she expecting that day to be today? Had she done all this just because she wanted me?Yes, dumb ass. Yes.I ignored my wolf voice and cleared my throat. She stopped dancing and smiled brightly at me, as if I was the sunshine at the end of her tunnel.“You’re here,” she said, wiping her brows with a face towel.“And you’re dancing,” I commented. “What’s the occasion?”“You’ve confined me to this mean, smelly place and I have to get used to it, Rhys.” She gulped down a glass of water. “The fact still remains that I’m your wife and I will be until I sign the divorce p

ARABELLA POVI’ve never had so many things happen to me in the space or hours or minutes but it was definitely happening now. First my children gets kidnapped, then after 24 long, excruciating hours, I go to get them and discover they had somehow managed to free themselves. Then I stupidly went into to the cabin instead of running away with them only to get kidnapped again and have a gun pointed at me.“Your children was a handful,” the first man said. “That is not surprising. I see now where they got it from. You do know we can’t leave you alive after this?”I immediately clasped my hands together in prayer. “Please, I’m begging you with the almighty name of the moon goddess, please let us go. I swear I’ve packed all my things! I’m ready to leave now.”He shook his head. “You’ve seen our face, lady. I wish there was some other way to not kill you—”The door burst open, forcing a startled scream out of me. The kidnapper in front of me trembled. I angled my body to the side and shifted

ARABELLA POV“What are you going to do now?” Lily asked me. “Do you have any plans on how to tackle this?”I paused my restless pacing and turned to her. “I’m burnt out, Lily. I don’t know what to do! I’ve tried to think of every possible thing but nothing. Rhys isn’t even helping matters. He thinks Mia is innocent simply because she hasn’t left the house in days!”“And the kidnappers want you to leave?”“Yes! They clearly said no money, that I should just leave. Who else would not want money and ask me to leave?”She cocked her head at me as both of our mind went to Mia. She was the only sworn enemy that I had that would dare though my children and go Scot free. Thinking about it made by blood boil. I wanted to grab her hair and force her head into a hot oven…“Okay, you’re making that face again, “ Lily said. “We just need to think about what to do next, Arabella. I know this must come as a shock…”“It’s quite the shock, Lily.”“But we have better things to do like waiting for the k

Arabella PovI realized I was vibrating with fear and doom. I needed to calm down, but the thought of my children going through the most traumatic experience of their life was chilling to the bone. Why was it only them that was kidnapped out of all the children coming to school? The kidnappers had technically been aiming for me and my children. I glanced at Mia. It was her. It had to be her. There were no other logic asides the fact that Mia has a vindictive aura towards me and she was not afraid to use them.I turned my back to them and spoke into the phone. “What do you want, please? Can you just let my children go, please? I’ll do anything.”‘Of course you’ll do as you’re told, Dr. Emma, or you’ll never see your children again.”I shivered once more, bracing myself as I asked the most important question. “What do you want then? Is it money? How much would you need to let my kids go?”“You insult us, Dr. Emma. We don’t need your money. We only need you to do one thing and we’ll retu

ARABELLA POVI was very upset, and rightfully so too. I thought about Rhys every day for five days, mostly wondering if he didn’t want to let Mia go. Did he trust her enough to be sure that she hadn’t killed his father? If only I had enough time then to pressure the guy more so he would tell me the truth about Mia. She certainly had more wicked things up her sleeve and I was very desperate to reveal them to the world.“Dr. Emma, you’ve wiped that post four times in a row now,” a nurse said.I jerked back into consciousness and realized that I was in the hospital, wiping a patient’s wrist over and over so I coke inject their antibiotic for them. Murmuring my apologies, I quickly gave them their dose and stood up.“You look tired,” the nurse who had called my attention said. “You can go home; I’ll cover your shift for you. I’m not sure I want to see you dozing off the rest of your days here.”“I’m fine,” I saidSpacing out. I was constantly spacing out because I was concerned for Rhys an

ARABELLA POVI was really bumped and hyped with energy when I took Bruno back to the car. He asked load of questions about why he wasn’t allowed to see the prisoner and I said something in the lines of how his ears were too little to hear all the important details. It would really sick if he had to hear from a strange prisoner that his mother was involved in a crime.Once I left him in the car and locked it, I ran back to the cell. My heart was drumming with excitement. I imagined that prisoner holding Mia’s picture and announcing that she was the one who had made the order. Oh, that would make so much sense! However, when I joined Rhys minutes later, I noticed that he was silent and now holding the picture, having collected it back from the Rogul. The Rogul was snacking heavily on the food I brought, which I now every much regret since the mood wasn’t what I expected it to be.“What did he say?” I asked Rhys, a note of desperation in my voice. “He was holding Mia’s picture, right?”

ARABELLA POVI had a plan. A grand, beautiful plan. Rhys was going to be here anytime soon and he would be solely against it, which means I have to be wise towards it. I knocked once on the children’s door before opening it. They were laughing and walking about, looking for the perfect fit.“Mom!” Delinda cried when she saw me. “Do you think I should wear a dress to the park? I can’t seem to find the perfect fit.”I smiled reassuringly as I remained at the door. “You don’t need to stress to much, my darling. You guys should all wear shorts and shirt—you can wear a skirt, Delinda—and carry a backpack too.”Damon frowned. “A back pack?”“Yeah. It’ll make you looo smart, like a professor.”I knew they would accept readily to what I said, yet I waited on high tension. When they finally agreed to dress like professors and carry their backpack, I grinned. Earlier today in the morning, I came across Bruno’s backpack and I slipped in Mia’s picture in it. At first when I saw her picture lying

MIA POVI paced around my room, completely restless. He hasn’t been sleeping at home lately and now Bruno was gone. When he was brought back from rhe hospital, Rhys took him away and said he wanted to take him to a recovery center. How long do recovery centers usually take? Did Arabella put this idea into his head?Oh, Arabella, that wench!I laughed wildly as I continued to pace around. She thought she won this time, didn’t see? She was the lowly, stupid omega in the past, and now she’s come back a bit chic doctor who’s trying to steal my man? How are people not violent towards this act?! Do I need to start an uproar? She’s not going to win against me. The deadly wench is not going to win me.“You do not get to have the last laugh!” I roared loudly, and then fell to my bedroom floor in a beep.My hair was a mess. With everything going awry, I haven’t give my much thought to how untidy I’d been. That was fine; it didn’t matter what I looked like. I would have every single thing I’d ev
