Celine Coleman POV

'I don't think I'm ready to be a father... I'm scared, Celine. I don't know if I'll be able to' Those words replayed in my head for the umpteenth time as I sat behind my desk in my office. I have been trying to concentrate all day since I came to the office, but my head has been messed up and I haven't been able to think straight.

A part of me was disappointed when he said that, but another part of me tried to understand him.

"It's not something to be mad about, Celine. You can help him overcome it," I said to myself and breathed in and out before I resumed work.

The office telephone started to ring and I picked it up.

"Hello! This is..."

"Come to my office, Ms. Celine," Claire said from the other end, and the call disconnected immediately.

I dropped the phone, stood up, and proceeded to her office to hear her out.

"You asked to see me, ma'am," I said to her politely, and she rolled her eyes.

    Chapter 108Celine Coleman POV"Are you feeling sick? Do you need to go to the hospital?" I asked Claire after I pulled the car over at the parking lot in her apartment, but she slowly shook her head. We were supposed to go for a walk after work, but she was so dull that we only did it briefly and she asked us to come home instead. She couldn't even drive, so I had to do it myself."I'm fine. I just need to get some rest, and I'll be fine then," She replied to me as she removed her seatbelt, pushed the door open, and stepped out of the car. I did the same and alighted from the car too.I watched as she dragged herself toward the entrance, and by the time I got to the living room after she walked inside, I found her already seated on the couch. She looked like she had worked her ass off all day and was going to die anytime soon."Do you need anything? Should I get you a glass of water?" I went to sit beside her on the couch and held her hand."No," She replied to me, and I briefly sigh

    Chapter 109Celine Coleman POVIt was finally morning and the day Claire had told me her Mom would be back.The aroma coming from the kitchen welcomed me as I descended the staircase after I left my room. My mouth salivated and my stomach grumbled hungrily, so I left for the kitchen."You are awake? I didn't want to wake you up. Good morning. Did you sleep well?" She looked at me and smiled."Good morning. Yes, I did. What about you?" I pulled the refrigerator open and brought out a bottle of water."I did," She replied to me."What are you making?" I asked as I uncapped the bottle and drank some water from it."Breakfast. It's a surprise. Trust the process," She winked at me, and I smiled."So, have you called your mom yet? What time is she coming back?" I asked curiously after I put back the bottle inside the refrigerator."Are you so desperate to move out?" She asked sadly, but I shook my head."Far from that... I'm just concerned," I shrugged, leaning against the counter."I was j

    Chapter 110Celine ColemanToo many thoughts paraded my mind as the cab I boarded drove down the road, heading to Claire's apartment. I knew something was wrong somewhere because she didn't sound fine, but I could only find out about it if I went to her house, yeah? As much as I wanted to stay calm, my curiosity was eating me up every damn second and I ended up being tensed.It felt like the drive was slow even though it wasn't. I was desperate to get home early and meet her Mom. I was desperate to see her and finally know who she was."Can you drive faster, please?" I urged the driver when he slowed down the cab."There is a heavy traffic jam ahead," He replied to me, and I couldn't help but feel frustrated. Not today, please."Calm down, Celine. She's not running away. You will meet her even if you go there late," My subconscious mind reminded me, but it was just difficult to listen.We ended up spending fifteen minutes in the traffic jam before we were able to get out of it.

    Chapter 111A few days laterCeline Coleman POVI stood on the balcony of Bryant's room and stared up into space. A lot has happened over the last one week since I met my mom after many years. Even though I wasn't so mad at her, I couldn't still bring myself to forgive and accept her back into my life. Not after everything we had passed through without her here. Jake met her also, but he wasn't ready to forgive her, just as I am. I spoke with Bryant about Jake over the week and he had forgiven him for everything he had done. I asked Jake to move in with us, but he said he had something to take care of before that, so I had to respect his decision."It's cold out here... You should go back inside," I heard Bryant's voice, and I turned to find him seated in his wheelchair. He was wearing pajamas, probably ready to go to bed. "Hmm... Just getting fresh air. Will go back inside soon," I replied to him, and he wheeled himself to me. "Babe..." He held my hand and squeezed it gently."I w

    Chapter 112EpilogueAs Celine sat on the edge of the bed, staring at a picture frame of her family which had her Mom, Claire, Jake, Bryant, and herself in it, she couldn't help but smile excitedly. This was the kind of family she had always prayed for. The kind of life she had always prayed to her maker for. Being with her family and getting married to a loving man. She couldn't be more than glad that her prayers were all answered.The bathroom door opened, and Bryant wheeled himself into the room. He had a white towel wrapped around his waist and his body dripping wet. He had just showered. He paused and smiled when he saw his beautiful wife seated on the bed."Is the baby kicking you?" He asked with a sweet smile on his face, and Celine looked from the picture to him."Not really... I'm just admiring us here... We look so good together," She looked at him and smiled."Right from the day I set my eyes on you, I knew we were going to look perfect together," He uttered as he wheeled h

    Chapter 1Celine ColemanAs I stood in front of the restaurant, I took a deep breath, holding on firmly to my handbag, taking a deep breath. Again, I asked myself if this was a good idea, but knowing that I didn't have any option at this point, I couldn't even bring myself to think about negative things."Let's go for it," I mumbled and took a deep breath, walking into the restaurant afterward. The dark aura that welcomed me as soon as I walked in, told me that someone powerful was here. Although I have lived amongst werewolves at a point in my life, I couldn't still tell their scent since I wasn't one myself. The only thing I could tell was their aura, and this one felt like an Alpha's, if I'm not mistaken.My heart skipped when I found him sitting at the far end of the restaurant. I wasn't standing close, but his aura was so dark and scary that it was consuming me already. Should I turn back from here? I asked myself, but just before I could make my decision, he raised his gaze and

    Chapter 2Celine Coleman POVAs promised, I went shopping yesterday with Alpha Kayla's driver, and I was supposed to move in with him today. I know this wasn't a good idea, but do I have a choice? I already sent some money to my brother to get an apartment over there if he wanted to really move out. I didn't want him to come over here and see the disgusting life his sister will be living henceforth.Alpha Kayla's driver, Logan picked me up minutes ago, and we were already on our way to his house."We are here, ma'am," Logan's voice pulled me back to reality, and that was when I realized that he was holding the door open for me, and I nodded my head."Thank you," I smiled at him, but as expected, he had a deep frown on his face."Follow me," He uttered after he closed the door behind me, leading me to the entrance door. The mansion was just like those I've seen in movies, and regardless of the beauty of it, I didn't have enough time to admire it because I was nervous. We finally got in

    Chapter 3"Father, am I your brother?" I asked him as I managed to look up at him, and he scoffed, squatting in front of me."Of course, not. You are my son... My baby boy," He smiled at me disgustingly as he pat my cheek, but it irked me so much that I wanted to slap his hand off me."But you called me brother when that woman was here earlier," I pouted my lips, and he smiled at me brightly. That smile I hated the most in the world. Those set of teeth I hated the most to be spread at me."Don't think about it, son. When that lady is around, you have to call me brother, ok?" He stated, and I slowly nodded my head. I didn't need to ask him why he said that. "Be a good boy, son. Daddy will be back soon," He uttered, leaving me in the room afterward. Slowly, the wide smile on my face disappeared. How annoying acting like this around him? How disgusting having to see his face every fucking day of my life. But what could I do? This was the only way for me to live. Pretending was really th

    Chapter 106Celine Coleman POVI rubbed my stomach gently, unable to hold back my smile as the cabby drove down the road. It was still hard to believe that I was pregnant. The thought of it made me feel like I was on top of the world. It just felt so good."We are here, ma'am," The cabby's voice pulled me back to reality, and that was when the realization dawned on me that he was already parked in front of Bryant's house."Thank you," I muttered as I pushed the car door open and stepped out of the car. I paid him and he zoomed off.As I stood in front of the house, I held my handbag tightly and bit my bottom lip. A part of me was eager to tell Bryant about the good news, but another part of me wanted me to wait. Bryant would ask me to move in immediately if he found out about the pregnancy now, and I still needed three days to do my confirmation before I leave Claire's house."Just three days... Just three days, and you'll tell him. You have to keep it for now," I said to myself and t

He is busy' One of the nurses had said to me earlier when I just arrived at the hospital, and here I was for the past thirty minutes, still waiting for the doctor. I was almost losing it, but I tried to understand the nature of their job and be patient. Maybe there were too many patients to attend to today.I touched my forehead for the umpteenth time and winced silently as waves of pain spurred through me. What could've caused this overnight? I asked myself, but there wasn't any answer I could provide for it, so I had to wait for the doctor.My phone started to ring, and Bryant's name was displayed on the screen. I swiped the answer button."Hey, babe," His calm, deep, yet soothing voice came through the phone, and I smiled."Hey,""I'm sorry I'm just calling you now. I woke up quite late. Did you sleep well?""It's fine, I understand. And yes, I slept well," I replied to him."Are you coming over today?" He asked."

I only asked a question," She clicked her tongue as she handed me a glass of water, and I drank from it."How did you know that?" I looked at her and asked, but her face beamed with smiles instead."Are you really seeing someone? Who is he? Is he cute? I like cute guys, so, is he cute?" She bombarded me with questions as she looked at me, desperate for answers."Ugh! You are so..." I paused and shook my head, not knowing what to say."Come on, tell me everything. Who is he?" She asked me, and I rolled my eyes. "He's just a random guy... Yeah, just someone I met some time ago," I replied to her, and she raised her eyebrows. I felt guilty for lying to her, but I couldn't just start telling her everything when I didn't even know what they were after, right?"Has it been long since you two have been together?"
