CHAPTER 51 MONTANA'S POVAlpha Lincoln was unbelievable, and he was beginning to get on my nerves. I am literally trying so hard to make everything work.It is like he is just holding back, and I have no idea why. We are fantastic today, the next day we are like strangers, nothing is just certain.I am trying to understand him, I am ignoring how cold and rude he is to me sometimes just because I want this to work, us to work.I don't even know what is happening anymore, I am putting down my pride and dignity for him, but it is like he just does not see me or something.He had told me that I should make sure I do not do anything to disgrace or embarrass him at the dinner party tonight, and then left me standing there.No compliments whatsoever, just that coldness again that always makes my heart ache.Even talking about his past, getting to know him more was an issue because it's either he changes the topic or gets upset, and he makes me feel like my feelings a
CHAPTER 52ALPHA LINCOLN'S POV Finally, she went to sit down. I see no reason why she was even with me, giving the stupid excuse of people this that.I just don't want any love attachment, I don't know, I don't want anything from the contract to change, and I admit this is all my fault.Kissing her first and making her think I feel something for her, but I do not think I do.You know what? Tonight, when we get home, I will have a talk with her about everything. Let it just end!If she agrees we can just stick to being friends or nothing, I don't even care, I don't.I said to myself, downing a glass of champagne. She always finds a way to irritate me.I let out a breath, taking another glass."Easy there", I felt someone's hands around my back and then on my chest, "What has got my sweet Alpha so worked up.""Ava? What are you doing here?", I asked a bit surprised, where did she even come from, I had no idea she would be attending this party?"Well my pack got
CHAPTER 53MONTANA'S POV Finding Alpha Lincoln was not easy at all. And also there was no sight of that lady, which just made me feel worse.Normally, I would have been like maybe he is having an important discussion with her or someone, but she just looked familiar, and I don't know, the way she was flirting with him eating, got me jealous.I admit.I asked his parents, but they said they had not seen him.After some time of looking around, I went back to sit down, "Well anything?", Victoria asked me, but I shot my head."I tried calling him too, but he is not picking up," Victoria said, "Maybe you should try," she told me.Alright, I picked up my phone and dialed his number, let's see if he picks mine.ALPHA LINCOLN'S POVTo answer Ava's question, "The first two are from my sister, and the incoming call now, is from my Luna.""Pick up and tell her something so they stop calling the line you are a child who cannot take care of yourself," Ava said, and that so
CHAPTER 54MONTANA'S POVAlpha Lincoln stared at me stunned. For a moment, he looked as if he did not know what to say until her told me, "Tame your tone, Montana, know your place."He growled lowly, "Know. Your. Damn. Place!"I know I was at the brim of tears, I felt so much anger but this was not the place or time, "I will be leaving, you can bring the kids back with you later", I turned and started leaving.I was already with all my stuff, so need to stop at where I was seated."Montana you are not leaving until we are all done, especially me", Alpha Lincoln said stopping me in my track.I turned and looked at, "Well, I am done, and I am leaving, you are free to fuck anyone in pants here, free tables to lay them on, you are free dear Alpha Lincoln," I said to him mockingly, turned and left.I heard him calling out to me, "MONTANA!", I know I should listen because I had too but I just, I just needed to leave.I was not sure if anyone has noticed our little a
CHAPTER 55MONTANA'S POVThe result from my big mouth and talking without thinking was not pleasant cause me figuring out how sensitive this topic was to Alpha Lincoln, it was already too late.He had gripped my hand tightly, his growl emanating through him and his Alpha tone, very much out as he spoke to me, "What gave you the right to think you can speak about her, huh? You see this is what I talk about when I say you are too curious and meddle in other business which can be very irritating when you are not invited."Sincerely my heart was racing, he was scaring me and the grip on my arm increased, "A-alpha", I tried to make him calm down, while trying to free my hand, but he was stronger than me, the pain only increased."P-please just let go? Relax let's talk", my mind was a fumble now, and I did not even know what I was saying anymore, "I do not mean it like that, I just mean if that is the reason then please just talk to me, let's understand and work on
CHAPTER 56ALPHA LINCOLN'S POVAt a point I knew I wanted to see Montana, I just did not want this much pressure and wanted her to understand.Maybe I had spoken too rudely and harshly to her yesterday, but I was just furious and nothing I said was a lie, right?Everyone was already seated at the table, when I got there, including Montana who muttered a low, "Good Morning", not even looking at me."Montana, I noticed you and Lincoln left early yesterday. Did you guys need some time to have fun by yourselves?", My mother said teasingly to both of us.I was going to respond, but Montana beat me to it, "We did not leave together, I came back home because I was feeling a bit overwhelmed by the party, it's been a long time I have been to one," she said softly, and I could sense the no emotion in her voice as she spoke."Oh, okay", My mother said and nodded.I kept watching Montana, hoping that maybe she would spare me a glance, but she was just so fixed on her food
CHAPTER 57ALPHA LINCOLN'S POV These few weeks, Montana and I avoided each other like a plague, but it was more on her part because there were times when I wanted us to talk, but she absolutely just acts like I do not exist, she does not even look at me.And my pride won't let me go talk to her to stop all this madness.I even went as far as sleeping with Ava again in my room and making sure Montana knew just to get a reaction from here, why I did that, I have no idea.But still, when Montana saw Ava and I coming out from my room, while Ava was all over me, she just passed and acted like she saw no one."I think it is good she knows her place," Ava said while watching Montana walk away.I just ignored Ava, clearly was not happy because I did not get any single reaction from Montana.MONTANA'S POVDo you think I was not hurt? I was definitely hurt when I saw him with that slut, but do I have any right? No.I needed to leave this place anyway as soon as possible
CHAPTER 58MONTANA'S POV Oh, no! That did not just happen! I did not just get caught. I needed to improvise, think Montana, think."I asked a question, who are you? Turn around and show your face", The person said, a guard warrior, I suppose.I turned around, immediately getting into action, "Is there a reason you want to give me a heart attack?""Oh Luna," he said surprised, and gave a short bow."I am going to give these bags to a friend, it has food in them, and she is waiting for me outside, Goddess what if the food had poured because I stumbled or something?", I asked him."I am so sorry Luna, I had no idea it was you," he said sincerely, "I apologize."I hummed and let out a breath, "It is okay, I just, she doesn't have much, and so I decided to help her, that is why I am sending this bag of food to her.""That is very kind of you", The guard said with a smile and a nod, "Do you need me to escort you?""No, no", I shook my head, "That won't be necessary,
