Jordan walked to her and looked at her hurting leg. "You do know how to hurt yourself a lot."
She frowned and looked at him, "Well, thank you for caring." she said out sarcastically. Seeing the cut on her leg, she winced in pain. "This hurt!"Jordan helped her to seat and looked at her leg, "Not a big cut but hold on, I will go get the first aid for you."He went to get a little first aid kit and quickly, he was back with it. He disinfected the cut and dressed the wound."I never knew you cared this much after you sent me out of your room for trying to show concern and you locked me out for a week." Bethany pouted."I am only doing what I ought to do. Besides, this chair belongs to me. I don't care at all. And next time, becareful were you step your feet to. I don't want my furnitures breaking because of you." he replied firmly."You always get your way with words. You are arrogant." she muttered and looked away with a frown.Emilia looked at the strange car that had pulled over in front of their house. She had never see a car like that and got so curious.She held her purse and walked to where the car was parked. It was tinted and that prevented her from seeing the owner.Bethany watched her mother try to see who was in the car. A single tear flow down her cheek and fell on her thigh.It's being a year since she haven't seen her. No matter how angry she was with her parent, seeing them again made her heart soften."You can't keep watching her. Aren't you here to see her?" Jordan voice brought her out of her thought.She sniffed and wiped her tears. With shaky hands, she opened the doors and walked out with Sebby.Seeing her daughter, Emilia's eyes went round. The daughter who she haven't seen for a year was standing right before her."Mother!" Bethany called with fresh tears bursting out of her eyes. She ran to her mother and hugged her but
Jordan pulled over in front of a penthouse. Bethany looked around and gave him a questioning look."Don't worry, this belongs to me. There is no other place to stay in before we get back to my town." he said to her and came out of the car.Bethany looked at the luxurious building one more time before she came out of the car carrying a sleeping Sebby.She went after Jordan who went into the house. "Make yourself comfortable. Take whatever you want." he said to her in a tired and low voice. "There are five rooms here, pick anyone for yourself." he added and entered a room.Bethany couldn't stop admiring the house. If there is one thing she is glad about is her forgetting her sorrow that moment and replacing it with awe.Just as he said, she entered a room and her mouth dropped. Jordan has a good sense of design. The room was luxurious and everything looked expensive. Although compared to his main house, the penthouse is nothing. I
"Do whatever will keep you at ease. It should be all about you." he simply replied.She sighed heavily and gulped down the whole cup of water. "What did I ever do to deserve this life? I was only born to them and nothing more. Right from when I was a kid, they never had time for me. It was as if I was an outcast. I am their only child but they never showed me love. Then, when I got older, they made me marry someone I don't love all cause of his wealth which I never enjoyed. I became a punching bag and someone who accepts all the insults he throws at me." she sniffed and went on."How would I have taken care of those parent of mine when I had nothing on me? They even called my child a bastard. An innocent child who did nothing. Who don't know anything yet."Jordan listened to her silently as she expressed her feelings. Doing that would surely give her some relief and he was ready to help.She continued, "Countlessly, I have thought of ending my lif
Bethany heart skipped a bit and her face turned red. Did he just said he was thinking about the day they first met which was special? She wondered and bit her lips.Lowering her head, she asked, "Is it special to you?" Jordan tsked and leaned on the wall. "Did your heart skipped when I said that?"She gazed at him and looked away. "No.... Why should my heart skip?""Then why are you eager to know and also avoiding my gaze?" He went on to further tease her, enjoying her reactions. "I am not avoiding your gaze and I just want to know. You said it was special so why wouldn't I be eager to know why it is special to you."He smirked and crossed his arms. "Not avoiding my gaze? You are doing that now."Bethany sat on the bed and pretended to be patting Sebby even though he wasn't crying anymore. She couldn't raise her head to look at him cause he was purposely making it hard for her and she so wanted to curse him but had no
Bethany couldn't believe her eyes as she stared at her parent who weren't saying anything to her.How did they find her? What were they doing there?She had a lot of questions running through her head. "My darling," Emilia called and tried touching her cheek but Bethany moved back. Why was she suddenly acting nice, Bethany wondered."What are you doing here? How did you find out I was here? Infact how did you find this place?" she asked all at once."It doesn't matter, does it? We are here to see you darling." Her mother replied with a smile Bethany could tell was fake.Why was she faking a smile and trying to be nice? What was going on?"You don't have to pretend to be nice and all. You are not welcomed here so please leave."She moved her gaze to her father who said nothing. "I don't want to see any of you this moment.""But..... you should listen to us. We came here for a reason." Emilia replied not
Emilia began to pray in her heart that her daughter comes out. They can't lose the house they labored and worked hard for.Their life haven't being all good and nice and they lost a lot of things on the way. Their only hope for the most important property, which was their house was Bethany.Jordan kept looking at the time waiting patiently for the given minutes to elapse. Bethany wasn't showing any sight of coming down to them.The ten minutes was their most tensive time as they kept looking towards Bethany's room for any sight of her."Times up. No sigh of her and that means losing......""I am here." Bethany uttered, walking out of her room. "You said we need to talk," she said to Jordan, "Then we will talk and I will put an end to my pain and misery right now."Jordan smirked as he stared at the new bold lady before him. That was the woman he knew.Bethany walked to them, "Do you mind if I seat here?" she asked Jordan
Bethany relaxed in his arms as she cried out loudly. She blamed herself for everything that happened. If only she wasn't born at all, her brother would still be alive.Jordan said nothing still hugging her. He just wanted to give her all the comfort he could give.After being able to calm her down a bit, he held her hand and took her to her room."I hate myself for everything. It was my fault Ben died.""You blame yourself for their mistake? You were still a baby who needed to be watched over. Who needed to be cared for and protected, but they ignored you. Do not blame yourself for their sin. They brought this upon themselves."She bit her lower lips and looked down. "But father lost everything cause of me."Jordan smirked, "No, he lost everything cause of his foolishness. He lost everything cause of his ignorance. They showed how foolish they were when they let you alone. You are never badluck. It was their mistake and not yours. Do not blame yourself for any reason." he said calmly
Bethany walked hand in hand with Jordan who was wearing a casual cloth which was a jean trouser and white t-shirt. He styled his hair backwards and wore a sunglass.Bethany wondered how the man could look so good in almost everything he wears. She held Sebby closely as she tried to keep up with his pace.They were walking down the busy road, moving in-between people. Forest-fall have always being a very busy place so she wasn't surprised at all."Aren't you going to tell me where we are going to? I am really curious right now." Bethany asked when she was able to keep up with him. "Like I said, it is a surprise." he answered in his usual tired voice.Bethany pursed her lips and asked no question. She just gotta let the man do what he wants to do. It was all surprising to her. Jordan would always leave in his car, but this time, he wanted them to walk. This was enough to make her so curious of where they were heading to.
The elders began to mutter among themselves in shock and confusion of what Jordan said. The child was obviously a human child so how was he Jordan's child?Damon who was also confused, leaned closer and whispered to his ears, "What are you doing Jordan? Don't you think this is risky especially when we are in this situation?" He demanded to know but got ignored by Jordan."Your child? That mean our lord slept with a human?" Julia questioned with her gaze lowered, not daring to look up at the piercing gaze of the alpha.Jordan smirked and leaned back. "Does he have to be my child only when I sleep with his mother?" There was no way he was going to tell them the real truth, for the sake of Sebby and Bethany's safety."Does that mean he is adopted?" she dared to ask again."You can believe whatever you want to but now," he leaned forward, resting his elbows on the hard Cedar table and his chin resting on his crossed fingers. "A warning need to be sent to whosoever is involved with his kid
Bethany walked to them and faced Jordan who wasn't saying anything. He never expected her to be behind him and wondered how much she heard."Is Laura behind this?" She questioned again."How much did you hear Bethany?"She shook her head, "That's not my question. I asked if my son is with Laura.""I told you to stay inside. You shouldn't be out here.""It involves my son so why shouldn't I be here?" She cried. "I just need to know what is going on. I have being kept in the dark and it is killing me. Is my son being fed? How is he doing? Is he sick? Is he crying? Is he still alive? It is killing me." She bent down, crying loudly.Jordan exhaled and knelt before her, drawing her closer to him and made her head rest on his chest. "I will find Sebby, I promise you. I wouldn't let anything happen to him." He comforted. 'Who ever is involved would surely wish they never existed when I am done with them,' he thought, patting her back gently.He took his gaze to Damon who understood his signa
Jordan lifted a brow, not taking his gaze off her. Go with him? There was no way she was going to see Damon.Not minding the look he was giving her, Bethany climbed down the bed and quickly wore her flip flop."You don't have to come with me. Who I need to see is not someone you should see and it is important."She shook her head, "I don't care. I need to find my son and if you are going to meet him concerning Sebby, then I have to be there.""Trust me Bethany, I will find Sebby. You should wait here for a while."She shook her head, "He is my son and I must do all I can to find him."Jordan rubbed his forehead and exhaled deeply. "Listen, you can't meet him cause he is dangerous. It wouldn't be good for you. Just listen to me.""Why should I?!" she yelled out breathing heavily. "If we had just stayed at home then Sebby would still be with us. If you haven't left, then he wouldn't have been taken away!" she cried and sat back on the bed. "I couldn't protect my son and now I want to. I
Few minutes ago (When Jordan left)He walked out of the restaurant and held the wrist of a girl standing by the door, going to the side where no one was passing through.He let go of her, to which she lost her balance but was able to control herself from falling."What are you doing here Laura?"he questioned with a scowl on his face. "Easy there Alpha king. Is that how to treat your fiance?" she questioned with a smug smile plastered on her beautiful face. She walked closer and shamelessly placed her hand on his cheek. "How have you been baby? I know you miss me so much so I am here for you now." Jordan rolled his fist into a ball, not wanting to harm or touch her. She was really a pain in his neck and he wasn't ready for it. All he wanted was to send her away and go back to have fun with Bethany and his son."Don't you dare come anywhere this city again. You should go back. I am only going to spare you just this once." he instructed and turned to leave but her next question stoppe
Bethany and Jordan walked into the restaurant. She was astonished by the decors. There was a big pond in the middle of the restaurant and instead of chairs, they had beautiful flurry mats on the floor with glass table in the middle.It was like a traditional restaurant with a little modernization."Welcome Mr Powers. I will lead you to your seat," a staff said, dressed in a black button shirt and a grey trouser, having an apron draped around her waist."They know you?" Bethany asked in a whisper as they followed behind the staff."I made a reservation already," he answered and they stopped by their table. Getting seated, five waiters walked to the table each holding a tray of food.They dropped it on the table. "We are at your service sir if you need anything."Jordan waved his hand and they walked away immediately. They all knew who he was. The son of the Powers and the heir to the family's wealth.The restaurant was affiliated with their company. Even though Jordan was handsome and
"Well sir, we were just talking about....." she swallowed hard not able to complete her words. She lowered her eyes, trying to avoid his gaze.Bethany sighed deeply and walked forward. "Well, we were talking about Sara's daughter. Her daughter is here in California but she wouldn't be able to see her cause of my son."Sara's heart skipped a beat, knowing her boss would definitely get angry with her for thinking about leaving Sebastian and Bethany.Bethany went on, "She misses her daughter. She is a mother too. Can I request that she is given a day off? I will take care of Sebastian myself. You don't have to worry about us." She prayed silently he would agree.Sara heart beat accelerated with Jordan's gaze on her. He wasn't saying anything neither was he showing he was angry on not.She was left on an egg shell.Jordan let out a sigh and replied, "I had a little plan but it's not compulsory. I understand you have to see your daughter. It is very important. Alright then, you can leave f
Bethany rolled her eyes and proceeded to go in further, but he caught her wrist and pushed her closer to him."Are you ignoring my question?""Jordan, one minutes you are a log-head, another, you are trying to be romantic and another, you are just there, as silent as fuck like a cold wood," she said and pulled her hand away from his grip.Jordan laughed and put his hands in his pocket, "You know, my name sounds sexy coming from your lips. I have never loved my name until you just called it out."Bethany exhaled and stood akimbo. "Are you always like this?" she snapped her teeth and shook her head. "Why am I even shock?""You know, I want you to keep calling me Jordan. Love it from you," he teased further.Bethany decided to ignore him but Jordan wasn't having it. He walked to the bed and sat down with his legs crossed."But tell me, don't your heart beat fast when I come close to you?""Not the slightest."Jordan smirked and stood up. "Are you sure about that?""Why won't I be sure ab
Jordan looked at the paper again, trying to read it content but Bethany hurriedly dragged it from his hand and folded it into a ball."It is nothing. Just forget you saw it."He cracked and shook his head. "I don't plan on remembering that anyway." He went on, "Your luggages would be taken out soon so get them all set," he said and walked out of the house.Immediately he did, Bethany covered her face and squeaked around like a child. She was so embarrassed that her face turned crimson red. "Why did he see it. Gosh," she cried and fell on the bed....The next day....Bethany was left in awe as she saw the clouds from the airplane. They were on their way to California and it was her, living her dream. Jordan arranged for his private jet to be used and made sure Bethany and Sebastian were both comfortable with different staffs working to get that done.Sara on the other hand was in charge of taking care of Sebby, who was getting used to her already. The little boy couldn't stop laughi
"I am sensing a rebellion going on. More humans are finding out about our existence and power to transform into wolves and now, they are using it to their advantage. In no time, the werewolves would all be in danger just as we feared from the beginning of time."Jordan tsked and crossed his arms. "Have you being able to get any information about the wolves starting a rebellion?"Damon shook his head. "Not yet and that's why I am here. I am grateful about you going over to California cause that would ease all these but I am also here to warn you. You will be going with the human and her child. That place could be dangerous for her. The werewolves over there aren't as calm as they are here. You will have a lot to face especially when you are the alpha of all werewolves.""I have given my word and I am not taking it back. I will protect her and my child even though it means my life."Damon smirked, "Has my cousin fallen in love with the human?"
