Her treatment was stopped, and the nurse left the house. She was angry as she accepted her fate and went to do her chore of cleaning his room. "I should be planning my life right now, but no. I'm here scrubbing toilets." She complained loudly as she cleaned. She didn't even know whether she was angry at herself or him.Suddenly, she dropped the brush and stood up to look at herself through the bathroom mirror. She removed the scarf she had used to cover the mark on her. "You shouldn't have signed that contract, Amelia. You wouldn't have ended up like this." She said to herself, rubbing the mark as if to wipe it off."He would have killed my family if I hadn't." She sighed. "But how can I persuade him? Begging can't do it again, especially when I can't even control the anger happening to me lately." She thought for a long time, trying to come up with any ideas to persuade him, but couldn't find anything.After cleaning, she left the room to go prepare breakfast in the kitchen. She was
"Red forest?" She asked to be sure she heard him right, to which Aiden also replied. "What's wrong? You can't go."Amelia was quiet, lost in thought. How could she venture into a forest filled with a variety of evil and poisonous plants? And the fact that some dark, evil witches reside there makes it a difficult place to survive, especially for a weak wolf like her. No human or wolf ever made it out of there alive, except the wolf, who is powerful. She would have to do it. It's her only chance. "But why would he want a plant from the red forest?" She thought. She was pushed out of her thoughts when she heard, "I guess you're not interested..."No. I'll do it." She quickly said, only to see the man with a hint of surprise on his face before he covered it with a cold expression."You only have two hours, and to be more pitiful to you, a driver will drop you at the entrance of the forest. You find your way back." He said before picking up his phone to check the time. "Your time starts n
"What do we have here?" The guy said, holding the red-haired girl's wrist with his hand while the other held her chin to give a clearer view of her face. He let go of her and also walked towards Amelia, who was already shivering in fear."Intruders in the red forest. What could have brought you to your graves?" One of the ladies asked with a smile as she walked towards both of them. She looked at the red-haired girl, who was carrying a cross bag, which she knew must contain something of theirs, and also at the other girl, who was hiding a hibiscus behind her back."Should I just shove that flower in your mouth?" She asked, looking at Amelia, who was just looking down on her knees in fear.Amelia noticed how the girl took a step forward towards her, and she couldn't help the tears that ran out of her eyes. She was helpless, and the only thing she could think of was that she would die soon. There was no way a weak, helpless wolf like her could fight the dark witch, who was staring at he
She hurried into the house in the hopes that luck was on her side and that her time didn't run out. Entering the house, she saw him in the same spot she left him. All his attention was on his phone; he didn't even look at her, despite knowing she was already standing in front of him."He's not even worried?" She thought, but didn't say a word or stress herself to think about it. She dropped the plant, covered with a small white cloth, on the table. "Here it is. I got the plant just as you wanted." She said, still looking at him as he kept scrolling through his phone without looking at her or the flower on the table.She got furious, but she was still holding everything in. She waited for about a minute until he dropped the phone beside him and finally looked at the flower. He looked at it for a while before he stood up and said, "Dispose it."Amelia was shocked. She looked at the man, who had turned her back towards her and was going towards the stairs. "Dispose it?" She couldn't beli
He sat in the hallway of the wards, looking at the door she had been rushed into an hour ago. His emotions were unreadable, as he just kept looking with his back resting on the chair and his hands placed in his pockets. Just then, Eric walked toward where he was. "Alpha," he called out.Without looking at him or moving from his position, he said, "You only had one task, Eric."Suddenly, he stood up. Touching the guy's collar lightly. "Tell me what job those guys have done." He asked, but Eric just bowed his head and apologized. "I'm sorry, Alpha."He also left him and sighed, his hand running into his hair. He didn't understand what was going on with him. He couldn't believe he sent her to the red forest, which could be the end of her life, and still tried to save her. And now that she was poisoned, he was still having a strange feeling in him. He didn't understand if it was his wolf, but he would never give any pity to her."Fuck!" He sat back down, while his assistant was just looki
In the savage's home. "Cassandra, come out now. We will be late." Gary screamed, calling out to his wife, who had been in the room for over an hour since he got ready. He straightened his suit, and his wife entered the living room. "I'm ready." She was wearing a black gown that was touching her knees, with a scarf wrapped around her neck."You're so beautiful," Gary said, kissing her cheeks, to which she also smiled before noticing the cloth he was putting on. "I told you not to wear this. It looks so old." She complained."It's not that bad." He said and was about to say something when his phone suddenly started ringing. He looked at it. "An unknown number?" "Pick it," Cassandra said."Hello," he said after he had picked up the call."Good afternoon. Am I on to Mr. Gary Savage?" He heard the voice ask, to which he also answered. "Yes. Who is this?""This is Liam Flea. And I have to tell you that your daughter has been admitted to the best-care hospital.""Liam flea?" He said, calli
The next morning, she refused to stay in the hospital, even when Liam tried to tell her she still needed to be observed before she could be discharged. She didn't want to stay another second in the hospital because she wanted to go home and check her admission status on her phone, and she didn't want any of her family to come back to the hospital to check up on her.She quickly left the hospital early in the morning, to which Liam also helped her get a cab that would take her home. "Thank you so much. I really appreciate it." She said, bowing her head a little, to which he also nodded before she entered the car.He watched the car move down the street away from the hospital until he couldn't see it again. He sighed, feeling pity for the girl. He couldn't understand why his brother was acting so strangely. He made her go to the red forest, which got her poisoned. He was still the same one who went to the forest to get the antidote, and now he was nowhere to be found. Abandoning the rec
Two days later. She had done all her registration for her new school. Even though Aiden had been giving her silent treatment for the past four days, she also didn't think too much of it. In fact, she was pleased. She did not try to change his mind about allowing her to live on campus, nor did she say a word to him about school; she just kept everything in between the both of them, not saying a word to each other.Lectures had started weeks ago, and she knew she had a lot to catch up on, and there was no need to waste more time than start receiving her lectures immediately.She made breakfast for Aiden that morning, which he didn't eat. Ever since she started working for Aiden, she has learned the habit of cooking food in a small amount. Given the fact that she doesn't like wasting food, she would cook a little or not cook hers at all so that she could eat it if Aiden didn't eat.She got into a long sleeves dark blue top with black trousers, and not to forget her scarf, which she wrap
"This is risky, Amelia. In some cases, it might not work." Patricia said to her as they both looked at the glass ball on the table.Amelia looked up at her. "Please, I need to. Carrie is hiding things, and I can't ask from Aiden. She's manipulating him because of something that has happened in the past."Patricia sighed. Amelia wouldn't let her rest. She had to even come so early in the morning to her place. "Ok. We can at least try. Are you ready?" "Yes." Amelia nodded. "Lie down," Patricia said, to which she also obeyed. She lay on the couch while Patricia began chanting some spells. Patricia gave her the ball to hold. After some minutes, she sprayed a powder at Amelia. "Do you feel sleepy?" She asked, to which Amelia shook her head. "No.""It's a powerful magic, and it won't work so easily. Seeing things from another's past isn't easy." She said it again before trying the spell again, but still, nothing happened. The time seemed shorter because they tried so many times. They ev
She sat in the living room watching a movie. She had just finished having dinner. She couldn't count how many times she had glanced at her phone since she sat down. "He said he'll call later. Should I call him myself? No. That would be too forward." She said to herself. "Gosh, I'm so worried about him." She had been worried since she contacted Patricia in the morning. Patricia told her it would be hard to check his past, but it was possible. She was worried Aiden wouldn't like it if she did it and worried she might see something more terrible about Carrie.She sighed for the umpteenth time, using the blanket on the couch to cover her body as she lay her back on the couch. Immediately, her phone beeped. She got up, flinging the blanket off her body."He's the one. Calm down, Amelia." She said to herself, trying to calm herself. She knew she had to pick up within the next few seconds before it would hang up, and she did."Hi." She heard his voice first."Hi," she said back to him, smi
The next morning. She stirred in her sleep as the ray of light fell on her face. "Ah!" she groaned, stretching her hands.She opened her eyes before sitting up. She looked at her bed before it dawned on her. "What happened last night?" She remembered watching a movie, and suddenly she had no memories of what happened next or how she got to the room."Oh my goodness!" She ran out of the room and made her way to the living room. She heard his voice. He was backing her and was on a call with someone. "Yes. Come soon." He said and hung up."You're up. Good morning." He said to her with a smile when he noticed her."Good morning." She replied with a smile. They exchanged gazes briefly before Aiden walked closer to her. "I'm sorry, but can we talk?"Her smile froze. Talk. What does he want to talk about? It got her scared. What if it was about last night? Did she do something to him?"Yes." She sat down, to which he also sat opposite her.It made her even more scared, and she couldn't help
She shouldn't have told him those. It felt so embarrassing, and now she couldn't face him again. It looked like luck wasn't on her side because Aiden asked as soon as they got into the living room. "So, where did we stop?" "It doesn't matter. I'm just being stupid." She said, unable to face him. Aiden raised her chin for her to look at him. "No, you're not. I appreciate you saying it. And I'm not angry. It's not like I didn't talk. I was just silent. I don't know if that makes any sense." He said, making Amelia chuckle. "Anyway, I didn't talk because I thought you might need space. And maybe because I didn't know what to say. About looking at you, I'm sorry I don't look at you more often." He smiled. "Gosh, I didn't mean it that way." Amelia hit his arm lightly. Her cheeks had become red, and she didn't want him to see, but he wasn't giving her the chance; he kept raising her chin so their gaze could meet. "And about offering to take you back home, it's not because I didn't want y
"What is all this commotion for?""Commotion? That girl tried to hurt me and the baby? Don't you even care about that?" She stood up from the bed to face him."I do. That's why I keep trying to stop the fight and focus on calling you a doctor, but you didn't want that because you're busy fighting.""No. This is not you. You should focus on punishing her first instead of calling for a doctor. That should be your priority." She screamed at him, poking his arm.Aiden looked at her in disbelief. He couldn't believe he was more interested in making Amelia suffer than her getting treated. She was even screaming like nothing had happened to her before. "Carrie. I don't want to have this conversation with you right now.""Did you get her a house?" She asked, but Aiden didn't say a word. "You're acting different, Aiden. This is not you. Not my Aiden. You should only focus on me. Forget about her. I know it's your wolf." She said, touching his face and arms. "Everything is because of the bond.
She followed the maid up the stairs to clean her dress. She couldn't help but be reminded of the past as she followed the maid. "Come in. You can use this room's bathroom." The maid said, opening a door to a room, but not just any room. The room she was sleeping in before. The room given to her when she was working in the house. "Can I use another bathroom? Perhaps the guests." She felt uncomfortable using the room's bathroom. She didn't want to remember the past, at least not the bad ones. "Why? You also think you're a guest?" The maid snorted with her hands crossed on her chest. Amelia looked surprised, but she didn't want to argue or fight with her. She just turned around to leave, but before she could, the maid pulled her back. "I'm not done talking to you. Because you're dressed in a classy gown, you think you've become special." "Do you have anything against me?" Amelia asked. She couldn't understand why the maid would bring her up there just to insult her. When she was s
She kept staring at the birthday card, which was delivered to Alicia's house. It was Aiden's birthday day card, and it would take place that night. "How come I don't even know today is his birthday? Gosh, I'm so terrible. No. We weren't on good enough terms for me to know, but did he send this?" She kept looking at it, but she knew Aiden wouldn't have sent it to Alicia's house. He knew she had a new place now."Could it be Carrie? She must be the one." She thought. "But why?" She wasn't interested in going, but she remembered she had to expose Carrie. Perhaps that was an opportunity. "I'll go even if I have to see Aiden and the other pack members." She had been trying to avoid Aiden since that day. She didn't even call him for his account details. She didn't understand why. She still feels it was impossible. She likes him. She thought about him more since that day, but she was scared. Scared that she might not be enough. People are right. She's just an omega with no wolf.She search
He walked into the house. "Aiden, you're finally here. I've been waiting for you." She ran towards him to pull him for a hug, but Aiden pushed her back lightly before she could touch him. "You told me you were not feeling well." "Yes. I was feeling a bit dizzy, but as soon as I saw you, it stopped." She smiled, touching his shirt lightly, but Aiden yanked her hand off."I'm not here to play games with you, Carrie. Why call me to come when it's not something important?""Not important? This is because of our unborn baby." She pouted her lips. "You've confirmed your doubts, haven't you? Don't worry. I know you're doing all this because you're still angry." She smiled, crossing her arms in front of her chest, but Aiden didn't say a word. He just walked past her."The maids are here to help you. Only call me when it's necessary please.""Don't forget your party this weekend. I'll prepare the best suit for you to wear that day." She said to Aiden, who didn't wait. He walked out of the hou
He had been taking glances at his phone for about an hour since the meeting started. A man stood in front of the room, giving a presentation. While the other employees' gaze was on the presenter, he was in his world. Twenty-four hours had passed. He couldn't get a wink of sleep all night. He kept wondering what the test results could be. Shortly, his phone beeped. Without sparing a glance at anyone in the room, he stood up and left the room with his phone. "Tell me." He said without waiting for Liam to say a word. He walked towards the elevator to go back to his office. "It's... positive, Aiden. It's your child." He heard. Immediately, his whole body relaxed like he had just been poured a cold bucket of water. "Hmm." He hung up. He walked into his office and sat down in his chair, his hands running through his hair. He didn't want this, but there was nothing he could do. It's his child. *** She went to school with Alicia the next day. It was a long day for her because she had t
