I felt unworthy to look at Ariana's face because…I have been missing her entire life.I couldn't imagine all the difficulties that she went through growing up with a single parent.I couldn't help it but imagine Aria watching other kids happily playing with their Daddies.I was mad at myself when the mere thought of it popped into my mind.“Please forgive Daddy for not knowing that you existed.''I apologise once again, guilt consuming me.I know a simple “sorry” wasn't enough to make up for all those days that I missed her birthday.I know a simple sorry wasn't enough to make up for everytime Ariana yearned for father's love but I was not there to give it to her.I know a simple apology wasn't enough to make up for all those days that she fell sick but I was not around to take care of her.I know a simple apology was not enough for not being around when she was born.However,I hoped that she would someday forgive me.I hoped that someday,Ariana would undRelated chapters

~Amanda~I blinked countless times to get rid of the blurry vision.My headache terribly and a strong smell of chlorine hit my nostrils.When I my eyes fully opened,I was met with a pair of grey piercing eyes and I couldn't help it but frown, wondering what the hell was going on.Gabriel's lips curved into a smile and I could see relief in his eyes.”You're finally awake,Amanda.I was so worried about you.How are you feeling?Are you hungry or do you feel thirsty?”Gabriel asked politely and I could feel the concern in his voice.I snapped when I recalled my daughter's condition.“Ariana!I have to go and check on my daughter.”I was about to get off the bed but Gabriel held my hand. I turned to look at his hand on mine,then raised my face slowly and looked at him,our eyes locked.“You don't need to worry about anything because Ariana is doing perfectly fine.Our daughter is okay.Mom is watching over Ariana.

~Amanda~ It was quiet for a while inside the room.Gabriel’s questions made my heart ache.I know he has the right to ask questions because he is Ariana's Dad but…does he know how the fucking question caused so much pain to me?I heaved a deep sigh to calm down.“I found out a few days before graduation.I kept it to myself because I wanted it to be a surprise.I was planning to let you know that we were going to be parents on the last day of campus.”I paused to take a breath.“When I received the text message from you asking me to come at your apartment the same day,I was so excited to tell you the news and that's why I came immediately but…”I was silent for a while,the painful memories replayed in my head and my heart twisted inside my chest,as though someone was squeezing it into a tiny ball and it was becoming hard for me to breath.“I was heartbroken instead.I couldn't bring myself to tell you about the pre

~Amanda~Gabriel's question caught me off guard.I wasn't expecting him to ask me such a sensitive question.It was quiet for a while then I heaved a deep breath.“Can we talk from the balcony?”I asked and he nodded almost immediately.“Sure,”He said with a smile.I led the way and he followed behind me.“I will only allow you to be a father to Ariana under one condition.”I turned my head gently to look at Gabriel who was paying full attention.“And…what is the condition?”He asked hesitantly as though he wasn't sure if he wanted to hear my response.I heaved a deep sigh.“You are not allowed to tell Ariana that you're her father!You'll remain an uncle to her.I don't want Ariana to be affected by all this.That is why I didn't tell you that she's our daughter.It’s because I'm trying to protect her.”I paused to take a breath.“We will tell her the truth when she's mature enough

~Amanda~ “I know I can't make up for the lost time.Giving Ariana a complete family is the least I can do.I fully understand that things between us aren'that...good but can you please allow me to make it up for you and our daughter?I promise that if you give me this chance I won't fuck it up.”He looked at me with pleading eyes.I was quiet for a while, processing what Gabriel had just said.I wanted to grant my daughter's wish too because that is how much I care about Ariana.I will give up everything to make sure that she gets what she wishes for.However,I know that was not the right thing to do.Many people will hurt in the process and I didn't want to be the reason why someone hurts.I didn't want to be mean…Alicia will be affected and I didn't want that to happen.I know how it feels like watching your dreams crumble before your eyes.I know Alicia loves Gabriel so much because I saw it in her eyes when he l

~Amanda~A FEW DAYS LATER “It's time to take your medicine Ariana.”Gabriel announced as soon as we arrived in our daughter's room from the dining room.Ariana made a funny face when she heard Gabriel's words and I couldn't help it but smile.She doesn't like medicines, everyone knows that.However,I think she has no choice but to take it.I placed Ariana on the bed then held her little hands in mine, giving them a gentle squeeze.I raised my head to look into my daughter's brown hazel eyes which resembles mine.“Uncle Gabriel is right.It's time to take your medicines dear.”Ariana looked at me with a pout,being sturbbon like always whenever she heard the mention of the word “medicine”.“You need to take the medicines as prescribed by the doctor so that you don't get sick again, darling.Do you want to make your mommy, grandma, grandpa, and uncle worried again?”I asked my daughter and she shook her head almost immediately.“I don't want to make you worried, mommy.”Ariana said and my lips cu

~Amanda~“I think it will be best if we talk from the backyard.”I suggested and Gabriel nodded,”Sure,”He said and my lips curved into a small smile, nodding as well.I didn't want our daughter or anyone else to hear what I wanted us to talk about.I climbed down from the bed carefully, making sure I didn't wake up Ariana.Gabriel opened the door like the gentleman that he is and stepped aside, allowing me to walk out first then closed the door behind us.We walked in silence and thanks to the heavens we didn't meet any of our parents in the corridors because I knew they would question where we were heading to.The bone chilling breeze hit my exposed skin and I shivered a little bit.As though Gabriel noticed that the breeze was too harsh to me,he removed his jacket and carefully placed it on my shoulder.I took a sharp breath cursing myself inwardly for forgetting to wear something heavy.The jacket was warm and it smelled more like him.The surrounding was calm and it looked so beautiful

~Amanda~“You don't need to worry about anything.I will take care of Ariana.”Gabriel turned his head momentarily to look at our daughter and she giggled, happiness written all over her face.“I will make sure that Aria takes her medicines on time,I will change her clothes when they get wet from sweating…”Gabriel continued to mention all that and my lips curved into a smile.I was enlightened that he cared that much about our daughter.“I can see you know everything that is supposed to be done.”I joked and we both laughed lightly.“All you need to do is pay your full attention to the meeting ahead of you because I know how important it is to you.”I heaved a nervous sigh and smiled.I was happy to know that Gab cared that much about my career and the company.After checking on my daughter and making sure that she was doing alright,I left her room.Gab assured me that he would take care of our daughter and the worry that I had decreased a little bit.“Aren't y

~Amanda~Andrew heaved a deep sigh then raised his head to look at me.”I have never stopped loving her even if she was in love with someone else.Perhaps I'm a fool when it comes to her.”His lips curved into a sad smile.I could feel the pain that Andrew has been going through.I couldn't help it but imagine how it has been hard for him to watch the girl that he's in love with falling in love with someone else.I tried to put myself in his shoes and…Damn it! It freaks me out a lot.“Maybe…you can try to shoot your shot.Who knows?”I shrugged, smiling at my own thoughts.Andrew was quiet when he heard my words,then heaved a deep sigh and a smile tugged on his lips.“Enough with my heartbreaking story.”He let out a breathy laugh.“What about you?”I frowned,”What do you mean?”I asked.“I mean are you planning to get into a relationship or something?”I was quiet, giving it a thought.“I don't have any plans of getting into a relationship anytime soo

AMANDA Oh heavens!It was finally happening!He finally popped the question!I nodded my head almost immediately,”Yes, Gabriel.I will marry you!”The tension on his face faded away and it was now replaced with a big smile.He heaved a deep sigh.I didn't know he was that nervous while asking the question.Gabriel picked the ring and grabbed my hand then slowly slid the engagement ring on the middle finger of my left hand.The ring felt cold against my finger and it fitted perfectly,as though it was made just for me.Gabriel stood up and wiped tears from my eyes, that's when I realised that I was shading tears of joy.“I can't wait to call you wifey…”He chuckled then leaned and kissed me.“Mine!”He said possessively in my head as he kissed me so deep,”I can't wait to be your wife.”I told him through the mind link and he groaned in response.We continued to kiss so passionately.Gabriel hoisted me and I wrapped my legs around his waist so tightly.He gave my arse a gentle squeeze and I let ou

~Amanda~THREE WEEKS LATER Gabriel recovered from the poison and now he is doing alright.He is back to training to get back his strength because the poison weakened his immune system.I have been training too so that in case the enemies attack the pack,I will be able to protect our daughter and future kids.I haven't gone to the company for the past three weeks.Andrew has been in charge of everything and he always informed me how was running in my absence.I have to say that I'm grateful for having Andrew as a working partner because he is amazing to work with.Andrew has closed a couple of deals in my absence and handled the company so well.I’m not that surprised because his parents were entrepreneurs too.Apart from having shares in our company,Andrew owns other businesses which were left under his name by his parents.I was surprised when Andrew visited Crescent Moon to check on Gabriel and wished him a quick recovery.As far as I could remember,the two didn't get along that well.I

Chapter 103~Gabriel~”“For what?”She asked in confusion,”For everything.”The frown on her face only deepened when she heard my words.“I know I owe you an apology because Amanda went through alot in the past because of me.”I paused and took a deep breath.“I can't help it but feel guilty because you're treating me with love despite knowing the truth.''I bowed my head once again.I couldn't remember when was the last time I felt this way in my life.I felt as though I had committed an unforgiving crime.I wanted Amanda's mother,I mean our mother, to know that I was really sorry about what happened between Amanda and I in the past.“I swear I didn't have any idea that Amanda was pregnant when we parted ways in such a heartbreaking way back in campus.I tried looking for her so that I could explain everything to her but all my efforts to search for Amanda was in vain.I searched the whole of

~Amanda~Gabriel pulled back and pretended as though he didn't want to kiss me in the first place.I almost groaned but looking at our daughter's cute innocent face made my lips curve into a smile.“Mommy!”Our daughter screamed at the top of her voice and I could feel the longing in her voice.She ran to us and jumped on the bed, giggling.“Careful dear,”I whispered as we hugged so tightly.My mother stared at us with a smile, Gabriel as well.“Did you miss mommy?”I asked my daughter after pulling off from the tight embrace and she nodded with a pout.“Yes,you lied that you'll come back.”I swallowed when I heard my daughter's words,”Mommy is so sorry for lying to you, okay? It's just that,I got a little busy.”I brushed hair strands from her face and tucked it behind her ear.“Grandma told me that you're taking care of uncle Gabriel because he got hurt,”She turned to look at Gabriel and I could see worry

~Amanda~“Ga…Gabriel,”I stuttered, afraid that I might be dreaming.The corner of his lips curved into a smile.The smile that I have been craving to see on his face so bad.Gabriel wiped tears from my eyes and that is when I realised that I was crying.Damn it!Only the heavens knows how much I had missed his touches that sent a shiver down my spine.My eyes shuttered effortlessly and I leaned in to feel more of his touch.Just this once,I decided to let all my emotions get the better of me and more tears streamed down my cheeks.Gabriel growled and that made me open my eyes,”I don't like to see you crying,”He said and I could feel the annoyance in his voice.“But…I can't help it.”I said in almost a whisper but loud enough for him to hear what I had just said.“I was so scared, Gabriel.”I confessed how I was feeling deep inside me.“When you dropped on the ground in the study room.I was so scared that I was going t

~Amanda~Leon heaved a deep sigh then shook his head.The little hope that I had on my way to the hospital flew through the window.“The doctors are checking up on him right now.”He explained to me,”What about you take a little break?I will watch over him.”I told Leon and I could see conflict in his eyes.“Are you sure you're going to be alright? Gabriel will kill me in case something happens to you.”I couldn't help but roll my eyes when I heard his words.“You're worrying too much,Leon.I think it will be good if you change,”I nodded to his blood stained clothes.“That's right,”He chuckled,”Call me in case of anything, okay?”He told me and I nodded.I could tell that Leon was really worried about Gabriel and I was glad to know that he had such a caring friend.The door clicked open and doctors walked out of the room,”How is he?”I asked one of them.“His body is responding r

~Amanda~Slowly,I turned around to find my mother standing at the door with a surprise look on her face.She looked at the sleeping Gabriel on the hospital bed then turned to look at me.“Is it true?”She asked and I could see so many unasked questions in her eyes.Taking a deep breath,I nodded hesitantly.“Ye…yes.”I said in almost a whisper but loud enough for my mother to hear what I had just said.“How?”She asked as confusion took over her features.”As far as I remember,you told us that you didn't know about Ariana's father because it was a one night stand and you never saw the man ever again since he was gone when you woke up.”I took a sharp breath when I heard my mother's words.I looked away, feeling guilty for lying to her all this time.“Can we talk about it somewhere else?I think this is not the right place.”My mother nodded to my words.I turned to look at Gabriel one last time t

~Amanda~I went on my knees then cradled Gabriel's face in my palms,”Gabriel, Gabriel.”I called, shaking his head slightly as though doing so would make him come to his senses.“Gabriel please open your eyes.You can't do this to me.You can't leave me.Please open your eyes…''I pleaded,tears streaming down my cheeks like a waterfall.“Gabriel…”I screamed helplessly,hugging him so tightly to my chest.The door to the study room opened and the doctors walked in with a bed, accompanied by Alpha,Leon and the beta and they looked so worried.“Please excuse us Ma'am.”The doctors looked at me as I continued to hold Gabriel in my arms so tightly, sobbing.“He needs medical attention right away because he was stabbed by a poisonous dagger in the battlefield.”Leon crouched to my level and carefully pulled me so that I could let Gabriel go.I fought Leon but he held me so tightly.I knew there was no point in fighting him anymore because my strength was nothing compared to his.I gave up fighting an

~Amanda~“Gabriel,your mother,sister and niece to the hideout.Make sure they are all safe before joining the warriors in the battlefield.”Alpha said, pushing back the chair and standing up immediately.Before he could turn around and walk away,my mother grabbed his hand and he stopped.“Jacob,”My mother called in an emotional voice and I could see tears in her eyes.I could feel the fear in her voice too.She was afraid to lose her mate.I saw conflict in Jacobs' eyes as he looked at my mother,his eyes so gentle as though everything had disappeared and my mother was the only thing that existed at the moment.“I promise you that I will return my love.”He leaned and pecked my mother on the lips.He tried to pull away his hand from my mother's grip but she clung onto it so tightly.“I don't want to lose you.I can't take it.I want to let you go Jacob because there is danger out there.Please don't go.Please don't leave I beg you…”She pleaded.The tears that my mother was holding finally str
