“When Neo walked inside the party room she immediately spotted her mother and Tolani sitting on one table.” “He then remembered what Illebaye told him of wanting to go home”. So he decided to go and tell his parents and inform them but he later changed his mind with the idea that Illebaye and Cross will be able to solve their differences. “So, he walked to the table and sat down while waiting for Illebaye's message or calls.” “Where have you been, son? Neo’s mother asked him.”“I was outside with Illebaye, mom. Neo answered. ““Is anything wrong with her? His mother asked again.” “No mom, she is fine”. “We just went outside to get some fresh air.” Neo said while lying.“Where is she now?” His mother asked again. “She is with Lycan Cross right now and they are both outside.” Cross answered “And just then he received a message from Illebaye and that somehow made him feel relax.” “Your sister just sent me a message saying she will be with Lycan Cross and she will be coming tomorro
“At what time did your sister inform you she would be coming back home?” Mr. Ethan asked Neo, while they were having breakfast at the dining table.“Dad, Lycan Cross called me a while back before our breakfast and told me Illebaye would be coming home in the evening. Neo said to his father.”“Alright, Uncle, I am sure mom must be very tired from all the stress from yesterday.” Let's allow her rest. Ethan Jnr said to his uncle and he just nodded his head in approval. “Tolani, aren't you eating your breakfast?” Mrs. Brook asked .“I am mom.” Tolani said as she took her first bite of her bread. “Dear, are you sure you are okay?” Because you have been looking all pale and quiet ever since having the party yesterday. “Did anything happen?” Or is it Pearl who is disturbing you? Mrs. Brook asked Tolani.“No mom. I am perfectly fine. Maybe it is because I slept late yesterday.” Tolani said to Mrs. Brook. “Alright dear. If you say so,” Mrs. Brook said to her. While Neo turned and looked a
“Please, I will go to the room to check up on Pearl.” Tolani said to everyone who was at the dining table.“Alright dear. You can go ahead.” Mrs. Brook told her. And she got up from her seat and walked to her room. “Did you both fight?” Mr. Ethan asked Neo.“No dad.” Neo answered.“Then why is she quiet?” Mrs. Brook asked her son.“I don't know mom, but I will ask her later.” Neo said to his parents, and they were all satisfied with his answer as they all started eating. “Walking to her room, Tolani immediately closed the door before taking out her phone and making a call.” “The phone was answered at the first ring.” It seems like you have come to your senses?” The person asked her. “I am sorry, Alpha Père, for not giving you updates about the Brooks family”. It was a mistake on my own part. Tolani said to Alpha Père.“It's fine, I understand you were in love, and you never thought your mate was just pretending to be with you.” Alpha Père said to Tolani. “Hearing what Alpha Père
“Come on, let's go have our breakfast. We are already late for breakfast. It is already 10 am. Do you know that?” Cross asked Illebaye as he held her hands and they walked downstairs to the dining table.“I thought you told me there was no maid in this mansion?” Illebaye asked Cross.“Yes. There are no maids here, just the both of us with the security guard,” Cross answered.“If they are not made here, then how come breakfast is already ready and set on the table before our arrival?” Illebaye asked.“That's because I got up early and made our breakfast before coming to the room to call for you. Cross said to Illebaye.”“Seriously babe, you made breakfast before coming to call for me?” Illebaye asked, since she was still in doubt. “Yes, babe, I made breakfast for us before coming to the room.” I won't lie to you. Cross said as he helped Illebaye pull a chair for her to sit down before walking to his own seat and sitting down. “Thanks so much babe, but you know your spoiling me and if
“Babe, come on don't tell me you believe everything that woman just said downstairs?” Cross asked Illebaye the moment he followed her to the room. “And who should I trust?” You? Why don't you tell me? Illebaye said to Cross as she walked towards the closet to get her clothes and other stuff. “Come on babe, I am telling you the truth. She is lying.” Cross said as he held her hand, not letting her collect her clothes from the closet.“Alright then”. Let's say she is lying. Why don't you answer my question? Illebaye said.“Whatever your question is babe, I will answer it with all honesty.”. Cross said to Illebaye.“Did you both meet two weeks ago as she said?” Illebaye asked Cross. But he was totally quiet.“Why are you quiet now?” I thought you said you were going to answer all my questions with all honesty? Illebaye asked Lycan Cross.“I am sorry babe.” Was the only word which came out from Cross's mouth. “That only means she is telling the truth,” Illebaye said as she angrily looke
“With the feelings that Illebaye had left him, Cross was so angry that he immediately walked back inside his mansion and confronted his ex.” “What do you really want from me?” He asked her angrily.“Come on, what are you talking about?” She asked.“Will you stop acting as if you don't know what I am talking about?” Why will you come to my house and accuse me of being responsible for your pregnancy? And you saw me with my girlfriend. Cross said angrily.“And what were you expecting me to do?” To raise the child on my own? She asked me.“What child are you even talking about because I know I didn't sleep with you,” Cross said angrily to her. “I know you are trying to deny the baby but know that I am carrying your baby, and I am here to stay.” There is nothing you can do about it. She said to him and sat down.“Will suffocated by her presence and not knowing what to do, Cross angrily walks back inside his room, leaving her in the sitting room all alone.” “A few minutes later he was se
“They both kissed for a long time.” Pouring all their longing for one another, especially Marvin. Who has been faithful to Tolani by not touching Uriel? “It was a long and difficult moment before they both stopped kissing in order to catch their breath.”“I Love you and I miss you.” Marvin said to Tolani as he placed his hands on her face. Helping her remove the string of hair which was blocking her face.“I love you and I miss you too.” Tolani said to him. “And thank you so much for bringing me back to my senses.” Tolani said to him.“You don't need to thank me.” I am just happy you are back in my life. If not, I don't really know what I would have done without you in it. Marvin said, pouring all his innermost feelings onto Tolani. “Thanks for never giving up on me.” Tolani said to him, since she never knew what to say to him again because she really messed up. “It's fine.” That is what we do when we are in love. Marvin said and that somehow made Tolani laugh.“Why are you laughin
“Illebaye stopped at their usual place, and she got out of the car, not forgetting to pay off the man.”“Before she walked to the hill in order to wait for Uriel.”“Forty_five minutes later, Uriel came to the place and packed her car before walking to where Illebaye was waiting for her.”“Bestie.. Uriel called the moment she was close to Illebaye, causing her to stand up and hug her with tears flowing down her eyes.” “What is wrong?” Why are you crying? Uriel asked Illebaye all the questions when she saw her crying.“But Illebaye was quiet as tears flowed down her eyes like rain.”“Don't tell me my uncle Cross, made you cry?” Uriel asked as she helped Illebaye sit down on the floor with her following suit. “Uriel, he didn't hurt me, but he cheated on me,” Illebaye tried to say with a broken voice. “What? How is that possible?” My uncle can't do that because he is very faithful when it comes to his relationships. Uriel said he still did not believe that her uncle would cheat on Ille
But with the hope that he was on his way home, as Alpha Père had said to her, Kimberly decided to wait a little bit longer. She sat in the darkness of the room, the only sound the ticking of the clock on the wall. The minutes ticked by, each one feeling like an eternity. She checked her watch for what felt like the hundredth time, the numbers blurring together as she tried to focus.As the hours dragged on, Kimberly's hope began to dwindle. She had been waiting for what felt like an eternity, and there was still no sign of Lycan Cross. The room was quiet and still, the only sound the creaking of the old wooden floorboards.It was 12 am in the evening when Kimberly finally gave up waiting. She stood up, her body stiff from sitting for so long. She walked upstairs to her room, the darkness seeming to swallow her whole. She felt a sense of emptiness and loneliness, the silence of the house echoing through her mind.As she lay in bed, Kimberly couldn't shake the feeling of unease that had
It was a long ride from Red Moon pack to his community, the winding roads stretching out before him like a serpent slithering through the darkness. The moon was high in the sky, casting a silver glow over the landscape, and Lycan Cross felt his heart stirring with a sense of restlessness. He didn't bother to turn on the radio, preferring the silence of the night to the constant chatter of the DJs. Instead, he let his thoughts drift, his mind wandering back to the events of the day.As he drove, the darkness seemed to press in around him, the shadows cast by the trees like skeletal fingers reaching out to snatch at his car. But Lycan Cross was undaunted, his eyes fixed on the road ahead as he navigated the twists and turns with ease.It was 10 pm in the evening when he finally arrived at his community, the familiar landmarks rising up out of the darkness like old friends. He turned onto the driveway, the wheels of his car crunching on the gravel as he made his way to his mansion.But t
It was 9 pm already, and the house was bathed in the warm, golden glow of the evening lights. Lycan Cross's phone, which had been silent for most of the evening, suddenly sprang to life, its ringing tone cutting through the quiet atmosphere of the room. He picked up the phone, his eyes scanning the screen to see who was calling. After seeing that the call was from Kimberly, he turned to Ethan, who was watching him with curious eyes, and said, "Buddy, I will be right back. Let me answer this call."Alright, uncle, Ethan said, looking up at Lycan Cross with a hint of curiosity in his bright, inquisitive eyes. His small face was still flushed with excitement from their earlier playtime, and his hair was mussed and tousled from all the roughhousing they had done.Lycan Cross got up from the floor, his tall, muscular frame unfolding from the cramped position he had been in. He walked to the corner of the room, answering the call as he moved away from Ethan's curious ears. "Hello!" Kimberly
Uncle, you promised to play with me after dinner. Come on, let's go play in my room. I have a lot of toys in my room, Ethan said excitedly.Ethan, Uncle can't play your toys with you. He is our Lycan and he can't be playing such games, Illebaye said in the best simple way she could.No, mom, uncle promised to play with me after dinner, Ethan said as he insisted on Lycan Cross to play with him.Sweetheart, come to dad, Alpha Père said to Ethan.Ethan walked towards his father, his eyes still fixed on Lycan Cross. Son! Lycan Cross is a busy man. And he has a lot of things to do. He was about to leave when I told him to wait for you to come out of the kitchen. So that you can tell him your goodbyes since you were the person who invited him over, Alpha Père said.But dad, he promised to play with me, Ethan said as tears straightened to follow down from his eyes.Buddy, come over to Uncle, Lycan Cross said to Ethan, who was crying non-stop on his father's lap.Ethan ran towards Lycan Cros
It seems like my nephew isn't happy to see me at his house, Lycan Cross said to Alpha Père, a hint of amusement dancing in his eyes.Alpha Père's expression remained stern, his jaw clenched in annoyance. "It's not like I am not happy to see you, uncle," he said, his voice dripping with sarcasm. "Just that it's evening now, and you have a mate or should I say, you have a baby mama at home. Who is waiting for you?"Lycan Cross chuckled, his eyes glinting with amusement. "You mean Kimberly?" he asked, his voice laced with humor. "Of course, or does my uncle have another baby mama? Don't be shy, uncle. I won't tell anyone; it will just be our little secret."Alpha Père's eyes narrowed, his expression darkening. "No, I don't," Lycan Cross said firmly, his voice brooking no argument.The tension at the table was palpable, the air thick with unspoken words. Illebaye, sensing the escalating tension, coughed delicately, bringing the two men back to their senses."There is a child among us," sh
After Vanni and his men followed Illebaye, they even saw when Lycan Cross dropped her off in front of her pack house. Before they both drove back to their pack.When he arrived in his pack, Vanni placed a call to Nicole."Is that all she went to today?" Nicole asked the moment Vanni called her."Yes, Nicole. And I even followed them and saw the Lycan dropping her in front of the Alpha of Red Moon pack's mansion," Vanni replied."So, what you are trying to tell me is that you saw the Lycan drop off Illebaye and her son in front of my Alpha Père mansion?" Nicole asked again, still not believing the fact that another man would drop Illebaye off in front of Père's mansion."Yes, Nicole. Why do you ask?" Vanni asked, still not understanding why Nicole would ask such a question."Nothing really, but if you don't mind me asking, was Alpha Père at home?" Nicole asked."I don't think so, because he never stepped out. I can't believe that guy will dump me to be with a girl who doesn't even hide
As Alpha Père entered his room, he couldn't shake off the feeling of unease. He knew that Illebaye was getting suspicious, and he needed to do something to distract her.He walked over to his desk and picked up his phone, dialing a number that he knew would get a quick response."Hey, what's up?" a voice answered on the other end."It's me," Alpha Père said, his voice low and serious. "I need you to do something for me.""What is it?" the voice asked, curiosity evident in its tone."I need you to keep an eye on Illebaye," Alpha Père said. "She's getting too close to the truth, and I need to know what she's up to.""Got it," the voice said. "I'll take care of it."Alpha Père nodded, even though the person on the other end of the line couldn't see him."Good," he said. "I'll be waiting to hear from you."With that, Alpha Père ended the call and set his phone down, his mind already turning to the next step in his plan.He knew that he had to keep Illebaye under control, and he was willin
"Hello, Tolani," Neo said, trying to keep his tone neutral."Hey, Neo. How are you?" Tolani asked, her voice sounding gentle."I'm fine, thanks. How about you?" Neo replied, wondering what Tolani wanted."I'm good. I just wanted to check in on you and see how your day is going," Tolani said.Neo raised an eyebrow, surprised by Tolani's sudden interest in his day."It's going well, thanks. Just busy with work," Neo said."Okay, good. Well, I won't keep you then. I just wanted to say hi and see how you're doing," Tolani said.Neo nodded, even though Tolani couldn't see him."Thanks, babe. Take care," Neo said.How is the baby doing? Neo asked immediately since he missed his baby. Pearl is fine..and mom is taken good care of her..Tolani said."You too, Neo. Bye," Tolani replied before hanging up.Neo set his phone down, feeling a bit confused by the conversation. Tolani's tone had been gentle and almost... affectionate. It was a side of her that Neo hadn't seen in a long time.He shook
30 minutes later Neo stopped and fell down on the bed breathing heavily. That was great. He said as he took Uriel's hand and placed a kiss on them. I really miss you and all of this Neo said while still holding Uriel's hand. I missed you too. Uriel said. What change? Neo asked. What do you mean? Uriel asked him back. I know that you feel hurt but I don't think it is the only reason why you let us do this. It's been five to six years since our break up and finding our separate mate and you have never kissed me talk more about allowing me to touch you. So what change? Neo asked and he was very serious. Why are you asking me such a question? Are you regretting your actions right now? Uriel asked him as she was ready to stand up. Come on now, you know I didn't mean to offend you. I was just asking a question. Neo said as he held her hands not ready to let her step out of the room talk more of getting up from the bedSeeing the sincerity and concern of Neo, Uriel was touched as sh
