Paradise in the Alpha's Arms 42- "His first love..."
"Of course! Like how I know you well and your cousins and the rest of the Gregoris!"Trey did not say a thing and just waited for her to get direct to the point."Okay. My name's Lori—Lorelei Martin, to be exact. We were classmates during our first year and second year in high school. Now, could you remember me already?"Lorelei? Sounds familiar…When and where did I hear that name again?Trey couldn't believe his eyes when he seemed to remember her completely. "Lorelei?""Yeah! Do you remember me now?"He nodded.She giggled. "Great!"Before I could even ask, I recalled too when I first heard the name. It was when I went to Trey's parents' house the day he introduced me to them!And yes, she was that girl beside him in the old photo kept for years on a book's page on his bookshelf!It was really her!She once again hugged Trey now that he finally remembered her. And once more, he was surprised he couldn't move.I silently gave them space.Well, I'm the girlfriend, but in today's scen

After finding out from Abigail that Lorelei was actually Trey's first love, I didn't know what to think next.Why didn't Trey tell me? Was it true? If it's not true, why would Abigail lie? Her reason? She lied because she disliked Lori? I knew Abigail Gregori, and she would never do that. She's direct, yet she's not a liar nor a false story maker."Camila!"I looked around and saw Trey walking to me. He was smiling as he approached.After Abigail disclosed to me who Lorelei was and how she was part of my boyfriend's past, she walked to her classroom while I remained standing on my feet, trying to process what she had said."Hey!"I forced a smile when I realized I almost forgot Trey was already in front of me, hadn't he spoken to me."You seem not yourself. Is something bothering you?" he asked as he noticed my indifference.I shook my head. "Nothing.""Are you sure?"I nodded.I started walking to my classroom and he followed walking next to me.“Let me guess, you didn't get enough s

Why do I feel like I am competing with another girl for what my boyfriend likes to eat or not? From the start, there shouldn't be any competition at all because I am his rightful girlfriend!Trey sighed before speaking, "Thanks, Lori, for being kind to offer me my favorite cake flavor, but right now, honestly, I'm in the mood for eating Cinnamon because you know I don't always eat this snack, so there are times, like at the moment, that I miss eating it and even crave for it." He smiled at me and accepted the Cinnamon I was giving him.I could not help but smile in victory.I just wasn't sure if Trey said that because he genuinely felt that way or if he only said that because he knew I wanted to hear it and I wanted him to choose me. But either way, I was thankful that he was mindful enough of what I would feel if he chose the other option.He wanted the Strawberry cake, but for my sake, he said he opted for Cinnamon instead."Oh, alright!" Lorelei shrugged her shoulders and chuckled.

It was almost a week after my confrontation with both Trey and Lorelei, and I felt like as the days passed, I was getting even madder. Worst, my insecurities stirred up more one sunny day when I saw Lorelei hanging out with Trey's cousins.They were at a table in the canteen, enjoying food and chitchatting. I could see that it was her that talked a lot and Barbara would support her and the two male Gregoris would be so interested in listening and laughing out with them.I could say at least it was a good thing that Trey wasn't with them that moment, as well as Abigail. Who were only with Lorelei at the table were Barbara, Jude, and Rain. For Trey, I had no idea where he was, or what was he doing, whatsoever, but for Abigail, I was sure as hell that she couldn't take eating at a table sharing with the girl she never liked.It was already a week since Trey and I weren't talking, or I should say I wasn't talking and I avoided any conversation with him. After the day of our last argument,

"Did the manufacturers already send the products for the trials, Grace?""Yes, Camila. They had already arrived early in the morning. The soaps are now kept in the storage room at an appropriate temperature."I nodded. "Good."I proceeded to the other members of the team. "How about you, Anthony? Have you checked the number of the products sent?""Yeah. Done checking for the BioAqua Fragrance, and I am now on the way to recheck products from Furry Friend. I'm also listing down the different variations that Bright Beauty sent to us." He mentioned a few of the brands that have been with us and with our company through the years, and these companies and business owners of commercial products trust our quality of service providing and assuring them high quality and accurate clinical and laboratory result examination and trial processes.ProSciences is the name of the large company I'm working for as one of the clinical and laboratory biochemists and a junior research leader in our team of

"Trey?" "Camila?" we both uttered in unison.We shared the same initial reaction of shock as we saw and recognized each other.D*mn! How I missed him so d*mn bad!I didn't deny the longing in my expression while seeing him and meeting him again unexpectedly for the past years I had been away, that we had been away from each other!From being shocked, I could see that his facial reaction changed into getting back to being civil and putting on a professional aura like we never met before like he never knew me…He looked away and pretended as if I didn't exist, as if he didn't see me or he didn't know me…He coughed a bit and cleared his throat before speaking to his cousin."Is everybody around already?"Jude inquired on our team. "Are we still waiting for any of your members or what—"Boss Jerry gently shook his head to answer. "We're complete. Let's start.""Alright then. You may sit," Jude instructed.We followed and occupied the seats in front of the long table."Before anything, le

"Noah… Trey… Noah!" Here I was again, gushing in sweat and waking up in the middle of the night with dreams that, until now, I couldn't still seem to get or understand.I decided to get up, not minding how my eyes still felt tired and super sleepy, wanting my whole body to be glued lying on my bed.I went to the kitchen to get a glass of water and sat on one of the chairs in front of the dining table.It was dark because all the lights in this house were turned off before I went to sleep, and I didn't want to turn it on again. I sighed after I drank the water from the glass and put it on the table. I admit that for the past years, I have always been thinking about my ex-boyfriend Trey Gregori. Always. It was him I was thinking most of the time, and while I made myself believe I have fully moved on from my late fiancé Noah after I met and fell in love with Trey. Living away and surviving all by myself in another country, there had been so many concurring times that I would have dream

"Come on! Stop the extreme formality. I'm still the Rain, you know, and your friend from college," he humbly answered as he was gently shaking his head and smiling a little. I smiled at his being down to earth. He had Tony checked and was able to rule out the problem. He prescribed medications and vitamins to help my dear cat recover. After we spoke about Tony's condition, it was time that we talked about casual things, like he mentioned to me that he is now the one who manages and runs this vet clinic since his father, Dr. Henley Gregori, died two years ago. I was sad knowing about that. I knew Dr. Henley, and we had spoken in the past, too, with regard to the follow-up check-ups I did for Tony during the first months after I had my cat rescued. "I'm sorry, Rain. I didn't know he had already left two years ago. Things must be hard for you." I glanced at him. We were walking outside the vet clinic while I was still carrying Tony with me. He smiled sadly. "Yeah. It was hard to adj

Paradise in the Alpha's Arms 80- EPILOGUE (The Last Battle)
SIX MONTHS LATER... "Long live the newlyweds!" "Best wishes!" Everyone cheered and applauded after Trey and I were declared husband and wife. He lifted my veil to kiss me and I responded eagerly as I wrapped my arms around his neck. Everybody was happy for the both of us and they wished us a healthier and abundant marriage, most especially the Gregoris—Trey's parents, cousins, and even his brother, Noah. "Congratulations, lovebirds! Remember our deal? You're going to spend the rest of your lives making each other happy every single day, okay?" He reminded us. Both Trey and I nodded sincerely. Above everyone in the celebration hall, the two of us were the happiest ones. Genuinely happy that finally we were able to turn our dreams into reality. He tapped Trey's shoulder and they gave each other a warm brotherly hug. "Thank you so much, Noah. Thank you for understanding and thanks for giving way for our true happiness," I said from the bottom of my heart. And for the last time,
Paradise in the Alpha's Arms 79- "Make it up..."
Noah brought a chair, placed it beside me, and sat on it. He was also looking after his brother."There wasn't any single time that I could remember I had been a good brother or at least treated him in a kind way…" he spoke, breaking the silence between us.I looked at him, and then he continued, "But you know what's ironic? That was despite me obviously despising my own brother, he has always been there for me. He was saving me, protecting me. Even before, since we were young and I wasn't yet aware of his existence, of my real identity, he was already helping me in silence. He always got my back, and though he wasn't getting anything in return, he was always willing to do something for me because he always wanted to see his brother being so well.”I knew it. I have really fallen crazy in love with an absolutely selfless man!"You know what, since then, he's really been there and always ready to save my life from harm or any danger. He never leaves me... Even if his own life would be
Paradise in the Alpha's Arms 78- "Without realizing..."
(Camila's POV)Walking back and forth to the wide ground of the residences of the Gregoris, my heart seemed to uncalm from its fast and hard pounding because I'd been waiting for Trey's troops to come back from the battlefield, where they had to fight to get Barbara after she was abducted.I couldn't take it easy. I could not even calm down. I felt bothered and scared that something might happen, especially to Trey and to Noah. Yes, both of them went there. As the ruler, Trey led the troops, while Noah insisted on coming with them because he also felt responsible for saving his family member.Seconds later, a siren on the whole building created a loud noise, indicating that the troops had already returned, and they were successful in getting Barbara back!The main gate opened and the first voice I heard, aside from the noises of the feet of the troop members running and hurrying, was Abigail's screaming and crying, "Trey is badly wounded! Trey is badly wounded, everybody!"My world sa

(Camila's POV)Noah and I went home after that long and draining double engagement night."Good night, Noah," I told him and was about to go to my room when he called me in a low, deep voice."Camila…""Hmmn—" I turned around to look at him, but I was surprised when he pulled my hand and brought me very close to his body.He held my waist tightly, and his eyes screamed desperation, hunger, longing, and sadness…"Noah, what are you doing—" I was cut to my words when he claimed my lips."Noah!" I tried pushing him gently on his chest, but when I felt like it was to no avail because he wouldn't let me go, I stopped, and instead, I just responded to his kisses.It was a responsibility of mine, wasn't it? He's my boyfriend, and he's kissing me, therefore, it's my responsibility to return his kisses. I responded to it as I should, as I obliged.He only freed my lips when he stopped, but his face remained very close to mine. He brought our foreheads touched.His breathing was deep, and the l

(Trey's POV)I could just watch her from afar… She was walking out of the hall and walking away from everybody, from where I stood…"Congratulations on your engagement," one of the seniors in the pack went to the table where my fiancée—Beth—and I were standing.We smiled at him and nodded and thanked him, then we granted his invitation for a toast.He proceeded to talk and have fun with other guests and invitees, and the cycle just went on and on every time anybody would approach to congratulate us and have a toast. We would smile at them, thank them, and toast our drinks."Trey, Beth, you really look great together. We wish nothing but abundance in your upcoming wedding," dad said happily when he went to us.Beside him and clinging to his arm was mom, who was also smiling happily upon nearing to us."Thanks, mom and dad."They both gave me a hug.And that's what Beth did, too. She greeted them, giving respect to elders, as well as her being their future daughter-in-law."I'm really g
Paradise in the Alpha's Arms 75- "Beth..."
I saw Trey from the glass door stopping and taking a look at me for the last time. He saw me and Noah hugging. I could see the hurt in his eyes, and yet he chose to shrug it off and totally went away.I knew that starting with this, I had lost him forever. He walked out of my life…After our hug, Noah cupped my face and almost endlessly thanked me for not leaving him, and for choosing him instead of Trey."I'm sorry, my love. I couldn't help it. I'm so happy and delighted that it's really still me that's in your heart even after all these years!"I simply forced a smile though it was hard to do so because my heart just honestly felt so heavy at the moment.To be frank, I chose him for a reason even though I knew within me who really my heart wanted. But I disregarded the thought. I'm happy that Noah is back and he's alive, and now we'll be able to continue what we thought we had lost several years back. I should just focus on that and give Noah my full attention and love because I alr
Paradise in the Alpha's Arms 74- "Hearing him..."
(Camila's POV)"How have you been, Camila?" Trey asked with a low broken voice when we agreed to meet one day to finally talk about us."I'm doing fine. How have you been, too?" I asked back while not looking at him.It's been a week since the big revelation came, and yet I'm still, even up to this day, affected by what I just have discovered. I guessed everybody still is.He smiled a little and nodded. "I'm alright. I'm glad you asked."I finally looked at him. "What are you going to tell me, Trey? I need all the truth, please."He sighed a bit heavily and nodded his head. "Okay. I'm telling the whole story to you…"He started from the first time he knew he actually had a brother and Noah was sent away from home to grow up and be trained to be independent and strong in all challenges of life, how Trey played being the shadow and guide and protector of the crown son and the supposed Alpha of their clan."During that afternoon when the tragedy happened, I was also there, Camila. I saw
Paradise in the Alpha's Arms 73- "Hide from me..."
After that reckless move I made, I never dared to do it again anymore or do something like that. I backed myself off, especially from their relationship. I could not possibly do anything to ruin them and mess up the plan.I just continued to watch over my brother as per my seemed-to-be lifelong task and assignment to my family. I didn't dare anymore to get close or approach Camila again just like I did that day. And I learned to move on my own. I should respect their relationship given the fact that Noah is my brother and he is about to become the Alpha and ruler of the pack while Camila is to become his Luna and wife.I tried forgetting my feelings for my brother's girlfriend and though it was hard because my own heart seemed to betray me at all time, I still fought it and instilled in my mind that I should really leave them alone because it's obvious that the two of them are the ones meant for each other. I am just a guardian and witness of their love.I also taught myself that I sh
Paradise in the Alpha's Arms 72- "I shouldn't have..."
One time, it was so reckless of me to have found my feet directing to where exactly Camila was sitting.She was at one of the tables inside a restaurant in a mall, and she was waiting for Noah because, basically, they agreed to have a date that day.I also wanted to feel and experience what it would be like if I stood next to her if I ever talked to her, and she would speak to me. I just really wanted to be in my brother's shoes, even for a little while, especially regarding his relationship with his girlfriend.Soon as she saw me at the restaurant door, she called my name… Noah's name, to be exact, because she was waiting for him and she or they—both her and my brother—didn't even know my existence…"Noah!" She waved at me happily and excitedly.My heart jumped. It felt like my world had suddenly stopped, and I could only see the two of us. I wasn't even able to move my feet!She stood up, waved at me, and ran to me. I was taken aback, and my feet turned to jelly as she hugged me.D*
