Becoming The Alpha's Lover Seventy one
RHYS POVI was in my office when I heard her voice. I stilled, listening to Craig vaguely while I tried to pick out the chords that were Emma’s voice. After that specific encounter with her and that embarrassing night with Mia, I just haven’t been myself. And to think that the Luna wore some stupid clothes to try to seduce me. Not that she even had the chance to, as my scowling face set her off the minute she saw me. Still, to think that she had the thoughts and put in the efforts were laughable. That night was a mistake, and even if I hadn’t told her yet, she should know that my now.“Give me a moment,” I interrupted Craig and his relentless ramblings. “I heard Bruno so I think he’s back from wherever Mai sent him off to.”Craig smiled. “Yes, Alpha. I’ll leave you to have some time with your son.”“Good.”Immediately Craig left, I stood up and walked to Bruno’s room, which wasn’t far at all. It wasn’t like I won’t see him any other time, but Mia had told me when I asked that he was

ARABELLA POVThe dinner party was a blast. It was more than I expected, of course, given the short notice. Mia had made me drop my kids off with hers and the nanny, which gave me the upper hand to go to their house and spy on Rhys again. He did not like that I came. I saw it in the way he growled at my attire—a green sparkly short dress that had a slit by the side and a long V in the front. It was perfect.Craig had agreed to easily be my date, but I suspect that Mia had a hand in it. she must have convinced him so nicely for him to have agreed in the way he did.“Enjoying the dance?” the devil of the topic asked.“Yes!” I replied to him. “Yes, it is most marvelous with you.”Craig smiled, but his eyes lacked the enthusiasm of someone who was dancing with him. That was his business; I did not care if he was happy with me or not. All I wanted to do was get his blood, which was my sole purpose of asking him to dance with me… and to make Rhys green with envy.Rhys’ jealousy was the seco

CHAPTER ARABELLA POVI got off the phone, inhaling deeply. The restroom was oddly quiet and echoing, so I didn’t trust that it would not have exposed my intentions. I tried to speak quietly as much as I could, but this was a public bathroom and I didn’t exactly trust it. I wrapped the wipes of blood in a thin sheet and hid it in a section in my bag, hoping to send it out of this pack as soon as I could and have it tested for DNA. Then, I would have my true answer. For now, I would continue to play it off and lay low.I squared my shoulders and walked out of the bathroom. Rhys was standing at the door when I opened it widely, gasping in surprise and nearly falling when I saw him standing there. He was leaning against the wall, so he straightened when he saw me, giving me his dark, suspicious eyes. I placed a hand on my chest and inhaled sharply, trying to get my composure back.“Jeez! You scared me! You can’t just stand there like that!” I bellowed.He flinched, taken aback by my lou
Becoming The Alpha's Lover Seventy three
CHAPTERARABELLA POVI stood in front of the room, hesitant if I should do this or not. It was a rash decision, a moment where I was driven by my emotions and my need to force him into a situation. A situation that he was all too glad to enter, anyway.I sighed. “Well, let’s see what he has to offer.”I dug my hand into my bag and fished out the room key, which I put into its keyhole and pried open the door. When I stepped in, I noticed that it was as dark as I’d left it, all the lights out. I reached out and switched it on, cascading the room in a dreamy yellow glow. I smiled to myself, then turned to the bed and nearly screamed.“Goddess!” I said, my hand going to my chest. “I have asked you to stop scaring me like that!”“You asked me to come here,” Rhys answered simply, sitting like a ghost on my bed.I clicked my tongue, watching him. He’d known when I came in, but he allowed me to fully discover him by himself when he could have just announced his presence like any normal pers

RHYS POVHer words struck a chord within me. I reached for her hand again, turning it over and tracing it with my fingers. I didn’t answer her; I had no answer whatsoever for what she’d just asked. Emma sat up boldly, not bothering to hide herself again. She dragged her hand from me, giving me a look as she got down from the bed and walked to the bathroom. As she walked away, my wolf and dick throbbed at the sight of her. One part of me wanted to drag her to bed again, but the other part was troubled that I felt this way for her, that my wolf was too active when it came to her. I stood up slowly as the realization set in me. Apart from Arabella who was long gone, my wolf hadn’t been active in any sexual relations. It should be a cause for concern, but I didn’t want to think about that right now. I couldn’t help it, though. The way my wolf nearly popped out of my skin when we were together, the way I stopped myself continually from marking her, the way I had to rebuke my wolf time and

RHYS POVI walked out of her sight and to the corner, heading to Bruno’s room. She would have to check up on him and make sure that Mia’s tantrums did not in any way affect him. Her anger was just the exact reason why I did not like her. Always angry, always grumpy. She always had one thing to say after the other. Just at the dinner party, she dared to publicly ask me why I did not complement her beauty. First, there was nothing to even compliment, and second, did she seriously have to embarrass me like that, after everything I had done?I continually convinced myself that she was my mate as I reached Bruno’s room. She was my mate and wife, and she’d given me a son. But what if my active wolf during sex with other people was her cause? My wolf already told me he didn’t get along with hers…I really don’t, Fenris growled.I rolled my eyes and knocked on Bruno’s room. Without waiting for the next beat, I nudged open the door. Bruno was with his nanny, trying out his vocal lessons. She l

ARABELLA POV I was attending to a patient when I walked in with a kid. I glanced at her briefly before finishing up with my patient. With the number of patients coming in each day, I constantly have to keep up to track. The woman who came in was standing impatiently, her eyes roving about, looking for someone. I finished up with the patient I was with and decided to go meet her. “Excuse me,” I said with a smile. “I saw you come in. Is there anything I can help you with?” As I asked that question, I looked down at the child she was holding. She was not more than 6 years old, though I could not be sure. Children these days grew bigger than their age. “I want Dr. Evans,” the woman said. “Your child doesn’t seem too good,” I said, noting the perspiration that ran down the sides of her face. “Do you want me to check her and see if she’s okay? Is that it?” “I want Dr. Evans!” the woman practically roared. “I’m not listening to anyone else but Dr. Evans!” I raised both my palms in the

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 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
