She sat down opposite the Luna while looking down at her toes and rubbing her sweaty hands together. She knew her eyes were on her.She couldn't move or look at the woman. How would she explain the situation to her—that it was a mistake she got mated to her son. She just hoped the woman would spare her life."Here is the water, Luna." The housekeeper said as she gave the Luna a glass of water. "Do you need anything else?""I'm fine. You can leave." The housekeeper also bowed her head before leaving the room.For about some minutes, the air was eerily silent until Amelia heard. "So that's why you covered your neck with a scarf?"Amelia looked up at her, only to see her sipping water with an unreadable expression. She quickly looked back down without a word. She didn't even know what to say."What's your name?" She heard, to which she also replied with her head still bowed. "Ame… Amelia savage.""OK, Amelia. Is it true you seduced my son just as the news stated." Amelia thought she hear
The next morning, she quickly woke up early to go back to her room. It was still a bit dark when she left. For the first time in her life, she couldn't sleep well. She kept waking up each time because her mind wasn't at rest, and she could guess the person she was scared of was sleeping peacefully even though she didn't see his face.She lay with her back on the bed, and her face looked up to the ceiling. She felt tired but knew she couldn't sleep because she wouldn't wake up on time.Suddenly, she rose from bed. Her mind drifted to what he said about sleeping with pills. She never expected he could tell her that, even though she noticed he didn't want to say it at first."But why would he tell me to sleep in his room?" She thought. She still couldn't put the pieces together, which made her think that it might be one of his plans to hurt her. But still, she felt it might not be it. She remembered different rumors she had heard about him, especially from her sister, Valerie. Some even
She entered the reception area to see a lady standing behind the counter. "Good morning, ma'am. What can I do for you?"I... she couldn't finish her words because she was carried away by the place. The reception area alone felt cool and cosy. She just wondered how their room and services would be. "I'm sorry. I was asked to come here... she didn't even know how to explain. She just gave the lady the card given to her by the Luna."Oh. Welcome. Please come with me." She heard the lady say with a smile, which made her wonder what the Luna had told her. She got even more scared, but she followed the lady through the hallway until they got to a room."You're five minutes late. I told you I hate tardiness." She heard the woman wrapped in a white towel, resting on a spa bed with two ladies beside her, say as she entered the room. Her skin was so clear and beautiful, and her long, dark hair rested on her back. She couldn't help but admire the woman, even if it was for a short period."I'm so
She went back home, looking worried and stressed. She had tried calling her father back, but he wasn't picking up, which made her more scared. "What should I do?" She asked herself before sitting on the chair. She knew what getting exiled from the pack could cause. They won't receive protection anymore, and no pack would be ready to take them because they're omegas. "Maybe I should have begged her." She was frustrated thinking about what to do. Finally, she thought she should beg the alpha. It would be best to break the bond soon, and she would beg and stop him from chasing her family from the pack.She impatiently waited for him in the living room. She didn't want to cook dinner, but she didn't have a choice. She was still working in his house as his maid.It was already dark when he came back. "Welcome." She said to him as he entered with Eric behind him, but as usual, he didn't say a word to her.Instead Eric greeted her. "Good evening, Miss Amelia. How are you doing?" Eric asked
Mature content. Read at your own risk. His eyes were wide open as he stared at the ceiling of his room. It was already morning, but he still felt tired. He couldn't get a good sleep because he couldn't stop thinking about what happened last night. She probably cried because of what the pack planned to do to her family, and he also made it worse.He didn't blame himself, but strangely, he was angry at himself for doing such a thing. She didn't come to his room, and he also didn't go to call her, but he was really worried she might still be crying. He kept having different thoughts until the day broke. "Gosh! Just stop thinking about her already."He took his bath and got ready for work. He wanted to leave early, and still, something in him wanted to see if she was okay.As he stepped out of his room and walked in the hallway, he saw her coming out of her room. He was taken aback, seeing her all of a sudden, and he hated he felt like that. He didn't say anything; he just stopped, looki
He sat in his office going through a file while his assistant stood in front of him. "It seems you're tired of your job, Eric. How could you keep making the same mistakes?" He asked as he dropped the file back on the table."I'm sorry I... Eric couldn't finish his word because they heard a ruckus coming from behind the door. He looked back at Aiden before walking swiftly towards the door to check who it is.As he opened the door and stepped out, immediately he was pushed back in by Mark, who entered the room."Alpha Aiden. How have you been?" He asked with a smile as he entered the room, but Eric tried to stop him. "Let go of me! Do you know who I am?!" He screamed at Eric, but still, the guy didn't pay attention to that. He was more focused on sending him out before the alpha would get angry.Aiden motioned for Eric to leave him. "You never listen, do you? You still have the guts to come into my office.""Are you angry at me? I thought you would like my gift. Looks like you didn't."
After Patricia left, she also went to her room. To her, it was still early to sleep. She lay on her bed for hours, thinking. "I have a wolf, and now it's leaving me. Just nice." Even though she would have the chance to continue school, she couldn't help but feel Patricia's suggestion might not work.She rolled on the bed many times, but she couldn't sleep. It was almost midnight when she left her room to get water in the kitchen. As she walked out of her room, she realized the lights were already dimmed. It was not too dark for her to walk.She managed to walk down the stairs, but as she was about to go towards the kitchen, she felt a strange thing in the sitting room. It was a strange feeling as if someone were sitting there and staring at her. She felt strange chills run through her body. She couldn't run, nor could she say a word. Her phone was with her, and she couldn't press it.She was so scared, thinking a thief might have entered the house. Not once did she think it might be a
He knotted his tie as he looked at himself through the mirror. He noticed his undereyes were a bit puffy. He couldn't sleep well after he overcame his tipsy state last night. He kept thinking about Amelia's face throughout the night. "I must be going crazy," He whispered. All of a sudden, his phone rang, and it was his mother. "Good morning, Mother." He said."Aiden. Good morning. How was your night?"He heard her ask. He could sense her happiness through her voice. And he knew it was something he wouldn't like. "What do you want, mother?" He asked."Come for dinner tonight. Your brothers will also be coming.""I'm busy, mother. I can't make it." He said it with a tone of exhaustion."Don't give me that again, Aiden. It's just dinner." Aiden heard, but he did not say a word. It has been a long time since he did all those kinds of things. Having dinner in the pack's house. "Ok, fine... inform Amelia about the dinner. Jason will pick her up." He didn't give it a second before he aske
He got home late in the night. He entered the house to see Carrie sitting in the living room, pressing her phone. "Aiden, you're back." She stood up to hug him as he walked towards her.Aiden just stood without wrapping his arms around her. He pushed her back gently. "It's late. You should be in bed already.""I was waiting for you. Change first and come back downstairs to have dinner."He stopped in his tracks. There was only one person that do wait for him to have dinner, no matter how late he was, and he didn't even eat it often. Everything happening to him kept reminding him of her. She would leave soon, and he wouldn't see her again. That was what he wanted, but why does it make his heart feel heavy? Thinking about it made him feel so uncomfortable. Without looking at Carrie, he said. "I don't like eating dinner this late. Good night."She watched him until she couldn't see his back view anymore. She scoffed angrily. "You have nowhere you can run to, Aiden. You're only mine."
"Is this the time you wake up every morning? Starving hungry? What is he paying you for when you can't wake up early to cook breakfast?" Carrie asked, folding her arms in front of her chest. She sounded angry at the same time, smiling. Her actions could make anyone confused.Amelia walked slowly towards her. "Oh my goodness! Your neck. You're the girl. Pardon me for my mistake. I mistook you for a maid." She said, covering her mouth with her hands as though she were surprised.She stretched her hand towards Amelia in a handshake. "I'm Carrie Wills." But before Amelia's hand could touch hers, she moved her hand away, making Amelia's hand hang in the air."I didn't expect this. You don't look like anything I imagined." She said, looking at Amelia from her head to her toes. "That was why I mistook you as a maid. You're a maid. There is nothing to apologize for." Carrie laughed.Amelia was so angry. She was shocked when she saw a lady in the living room as she walked down the stairs. She
He paced up and down in the lobby as the doctor attended to her. Not too long later, the door opened, and a doctor came out of the room.He hurried towards the doctor. "How is she, and the baby?""They're both fine. Your wife inhaled a lot of smoke, but she's fine. Please monitor her more. She's in a delicate state." The doctor smiled.Aiden did not say anything. He felt relieved that she and the baby were okay. Ever since he learnt about the baby, he had changed. He wasn't sure he was ready to be a father, but he didn't want to abandon his unborn child. For the past week, he would create time to accompany Carrie to the hospital. He was ready to do any tests and attend any lesson. He's cold, and he's angry at Carrie, but he wouldn't abandon his child.He wanted to correct the doctor that she wasn't his wife, but he let go of it. What would he say she is to him? Girlfriend? Mate?"Can I go in?" He asked, to which the doctor nodded.He opened the door and walked into the room. She was m
It was her mid-exam week. She focused on reading and writing her exams well. Seeing the magazine with Aiden finally got her to sort out her thoughts. She wouldn't be selfish to separate and destroy someone's family. He will soon be a father, and it's only right that she keeps her distance. She had been planning to move out immediately after she sorts the breaking of the mate bond between them. She had finished her exams, and a few days later, it was Christmas. She didn't even have plans for how to celebrate it. Aiden was right. It was for humans. She sat in her room all day on Christmas Eve. Vera called her on Christmas Day for ice skating. She wanted to reject the offer, but she felt it was too much for her to say. She couldn't reject the Luna. She also felt she would feel okay if she left the house.There were a lot of people in the skating field, but despite that, it was fun. Vera was grazing the floor while Amelia kept trying to balance herself, but she kept falling.Vera made
He waited for her to say something, but nothing was coming out of her, not even a movement. He continued. "She came back around three weeks ago. And..." he found it hard to say. "She's pregnant."The towel she was holding around her body fell to the ground. As if the revelation of her coming back wasn't enough, she's pregnant.He had met her three weeks ago, and she's now pregnant. He had been distant. Is it because of her? Because he had seen and reunited with his first mate."You... you're going to be a father?" She asked.He nodded. "It's complicated... She's still my mate." Hearing this, she couldn't hide her tears anymore. It felt like her heart ripped into pieces. He said she was his mate. What about her? Tears ran out of her eyes. She tried to wipe it off, but it didn't stop. The girl who had left him was back. She didn't know about her, but she heard rumours. His first mate. And now soon-to-be mother of his child. She was back to take her place. She was just a substitute. Th
He couldn't breathe, couldn't think. All he could do was sit there with his eyes closed, surrounded by the suffocating silence of the water.He was confused and frustrated. It was a Friday, and he was supposed to be at work, but he had to take a break, especially after what he heard last night.He was trying to solve the matter of the two fated mates at hand when another came in. He wasn't even sure he was ready to be a father, especially after the issue with Carrie. She left him without a word, and he was still angry about that.Speaking of Amelia. She's also his mate, and even though he didn't want to understand how that was possible, a part of him didn't want to let her go. He wasn't sure of his feelings, but he knew he was attracted to her.He was still underwater when he suddenly heard a loud sound. Someone had entered the pool. He swam up to the surface, angry someone had the guts to enter his special pool. Just when he was about to get to the surface, he noticed the person was
"Alpha, Ms. Carrie is here to see you," Eric announced as he entered the room. He wouldn't have come to inform him, but since she works for the investee company, he had no choice.Aiden looked up at him. "Let her in." There was no reason to avoid her, especially after what had happened the night before."Yes, sir," Eric replied before leaving the room. After some minutes, a knock came from the door. He asked the person to come in, and she walked in. She wore a V-line neckline red dress that stopped on her thighs. "Good morning," she said with a smile, walking towards his chair. "Sit down." He said with no emotion, but Carrie still kept smiling. She sat in her chair opposite him. "How are you doing?" She asked. "What do you want? Did Mr. Bates send you here?" Aiden asked, but to his surprise, Carrie burst out into laughter. She flipped her hair to the back and asked. "Do I look like I'm here for business? I came here as Carrie, not Miss Carrie.""Then I'm busy. I don't have any time
"Who comes to a training facility this early morning?" Liam asked, looking around the empty room. He didn't get any reply from the guy, who was already sweating a lot because he had been hitting the punching bag for over an hour.Aiden suddenly called him to come, and he knew something was bothering him only for him to get there and be treated as if he was invisible. He asked him if he would box with him, but he declined. He left the hospital to join him, and he would go back to the hospital so he couldn't afford to destroy his clothes. Aiden, on the other hand, was wearing a shirt and suit pants, but still, he was in the ring boxing like he was training for a fight. To think he didn't even have a bath and was still in his last night's wear. Finally, he stopped. He removed his boxing gloves and left the ring. Liam handed him a bottle of water as he took a seat beside him.He also took it and drank it until he almost emptied the bottle. "Do you feel okay now?" Liam asked, but Aiden
The next morning, they didn't see or meet each other, not to mention eat breakfast. He went to work as usual and did his normal routine, even though he still couldn't get the thoughts of having two mates out of his mind. He didn't understand why Carrie would just come back after a few months and still be his mate. He never rejected their bond, but he never thought the bond might still be there when he had already marked Amelia. He didn't know what he could do even though he and Amelia had planned to break the bond. He was uneasy with the thought of it. And even if he breaks the bond with Amelia, he can't act like things are fine with Carrie.He stopped working when Eric came to inform him it was time to leave for the party. Work had ended hours ago, but he stayed back in the company to attend the party, and he was uncomfortable going home.The party was held at a big hotel in the city. He walked into the large room filled with different people, dressed in different classy suits and
