Chapter 31

Celine Coleman POV

I tossed on the bed for the umpteenth time, unable to sleep even though I've been forcing myself to. My head was still occupied with his thoughts even though I didn't want to think about it. The imagination of the pain he has been through all these years wouldn't stop haunting me, and it only made me feel angry and sympathetic toward him, something he hated the most.

'Can you pretend nothing happened?' I finally sat up on the bed when those words replayed in my head. Yes, that was going to be the best thing for him, but how could I pretend nothing happened? How could I pretend I didn't see anything when I did?

I reached for my phone on the nightstand and unlocked it, welcomed by a text on the screen.

'I'm sorry for putting you into a difficult situation. I will blame myself for everything. We don't have to keep seeing each other. We could just pretend we never met' I scoffed after I read through the text, waves of anger spurred through me.

    Chapter 32Celine Coleman POV"We need to talk," I said to him even though I wasn't sure of what I wanted to talk about."What do we need to talk about?" He asked me, his face laced with curiosity and questioning, so I swallowed nothing and went to sit on the bed."I'm sorry about how I lashed out at you the other day. I was just shocked and angry at that time," I began, but he only stared back at me with an unreadable expression on his face as if I was acting drama, and I had to ask myself if he heard what I said."I felt like I was fooled. That's why I was like that," I further said, but he continued to stare at me, and it was making me feel uncomfortable."Are you going to stare at me like that? I just told you that I'm sorry. What more do you want? Do you think it's fair?" I scoffed, and he raised his eyebrows but didn't bother to say anything to me."Are you not going to say anything, Bryant? I should be the one mad at you... You made a fool of me, ignored me, and you still told

Nolan asked as he sat on the bed, but I just stared out of the window, my thoughts going in different directions without any destination.'I love you, Bryant. I love you with everything in me' Her words replayed in my head and I had no idea whether or not I should be happy. Here I was, thinking she'd never look at me again, I thought she would hate me when she found out my identity little did I know that she felt genuine feelings for me. I was shocked when she confessed to me, but a part of me was scared. "I don't know what I should do, Nolan. I don't even have any plan yet... I can't deny that I love her way more, but...""Then just go for her and stop trying to resist it...""You won't understand, Nolan. I really want to. I want to tell her that I love her, but I'm scared. I want to protect her, but I'm scared I won't be able to," I shook my

    Chapter 34"How the f**k am I supposed to do this?" Nolan mumbled as he pulled over at the side of the road, and threw his head on the headrest frustratingly. It was supposed to be a beautiful night, but with Bryant frustrating him and sending him on a death mission, then this couldn't just be considered a beautiful night.He swallowed nothing, looking at the tall castle from where he was parked, asking himself if he should go ahead or turn back from there to avoid the story that touched the heart later.'You are the only one I trust, Nolan. You have to do this for me' he sighed deeply and sank his fingers in his hair frustratingly, recalling that he was the only one his friend had, and no matter what he needed to be there for him even if it meant that he would put his life on the line.Taking a deep breath, he pushed the car door opened and stepped out of it then checked the time and realized that it was midnight. "You can do this, Nolan. You need to do this for Bryant. You are the

    Chapter 35Celine Coleman POV'I don't love you. I wanted to sacrifice my curiosity' Those words felt like a dagger pierced through my heart. I couldn't get it off my head no matter how much I tried to, and it was driving me nuts, but sadly, I couldn't stop this intense feeling that had taken over me. Even though he kept pushing me away, my heart still yearns for him.After trying to get some sleep for a few minutes and my effort went to waste, I got off the bed and went to lean over the window, staring at the beautiful sky, and the beautiful stars welcomed me. How did all these start? How did I fall in love with him? How did I fall so deeply? I asked myself as if I would be able to provide answers to it, but knowing that I was only going to keep wasting my time sorting solutions to something I wouldn't ever find the solution to, I was forced to give up."What a..." I paused and threw my head back, not knowing how to finish my statement. I didn't know what to do or say. Yes, I was mad

    Chapter 36Celine finally mustered courage and pushed the door open, walking inside afterward. Her heart skipped when she saw him sitting in the wheelchair as usual while staring out through the window, and she swallowed nothing, biting into her bottom lip."Bryant... I brought your food," She spoke up as she held the tray tightly, her heart pounding hard against her chest. Will he ask her to leave again? She asked herself, hoping and praying he doesn't end up doing that to her again. She would definitely lose it if he did."Drop it there and leave," His voice was hard and void of emotions, he didn't bother to spare her a glance as if she was not there, and she felt a sharp pain in her heart."Bryant...""I want to be alone, Celine. You should leave, please," He cut her off, so she took a deep breath and nodded her head, fighting back the tears that threatened to escape her eyes. She dragged her feet toward the center table and dropped the food on it, then glanced at him and finally l

    Chapter 37Bryant Reed"Nathan?" I asked Nolan to be sure of what he said, and when he nodded, I froze. Even if a miracle were to happen, Mr. Nathan being alive was the last thing I would ever imagine or even believe."What are you saying? Mr. Nathan died seven years ago," I was unsure of my words all of a sudden. Maybe I didn't have a clear memory of what happened, but I was sure that I knew everything.Mr. Nathan was a guard assigned to my Mom by the late Alpha, my maternal grandpa. After the death of Mom ten years ago, Mr. Nathan was there for me until three years later when he suddenly disappeared and was later reported dead. "I don't know because this is also confusing. But I'm sure of what I heard. Alpha Kayla is trying to reach him, and I think he has something important that Alpha Kayla desperately wants," Nolan uttered, and I squinted my eyebrows confusingly. What could he have in his possession? I asked myself but couldn't come up with anything, so I gave up."Nolan, I need

He was really confident because he thought I couldn't have done anything with the phone. Wow! Just wow!"You may leave. I want to be alone," I said to Celine, avoiding her at all costs, but I heard her scoff."The Alpha asked me to come stay with you...""I told you I'm fine being alone. You may leave now," I cut her off bluntly, and she scoffed."I'm not leaving," She stated with finality in her voice, and I sighed briefly. If only she knew how difficult she was making this for me, then I'm sure she wouldn't be sticking around me. I am trying hard to distance myself from her for fuck's sake, but here she was, making things difficult for me.I turned the wheelchair and started to wheel myself out of the room, but her voice made me stop."For

The kiss was rough and intense, our breath caressing each other's face and our tongues fought for dominance. It felt so good.I penetrated her and pounded her like my life depended on it. Her moans sounded like music to my ears. They felt like rewards for the good job I was doing, and they only gave me more reason to do more for her.I felt my wolf trying to take over me, but I tried to keep him in check knowing that marking her was the last thing I wanted. At least not yet. I shuddered and groaned, going inside her deeper when I felt my cum building up. I wanted to hold it in longer because I didn't want this to stop just yet, but I couldn't.

    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 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 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 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 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

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."I told you to drop the formality.

    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?"
