Hearing that, Aiden's mood turned sour immediately. He realized the he was really going to stay in this place.. the same place that scarred his mother.

Alyssa turned to Aiden with a smile but he couldn't return it no matter how hard he tried, he was that upset.

"Alright.. let me help him get prepared." She said to Simon and he nodded before leaving.

"Do we really have to live here?" Aiden asked immediately after Simon had left.

Alyssa sighed and crouched to his level. "I'm afraid so." She answered as she gently combed through his jet black hair with her fingers.

"What about our life at home.. what about aunty Lily?" He asked again.

"This is our life now... our home." Alyssa myttered the last part heavily, like she was forced to. She never imagined she would term this place as her home again.

Aiden stared at his mother sadly. His lips quivered and amd he blinked his eyes severally, it seemed like he was about to burst into tears again.

    "You're going to a new school. Hopefully, it will be different from the last. Try to get along with your classmates and also make friends with your mates." Alyssa advised as she brushed Aiden's short hair backwards."Okay mommy." Aiden answered with a small nod."Good boy. Now, let's go or you'll be late on your first day." She muttered and handed over to him his school bag. They walked hand in hand towards the car Simon was waiting in."Bye baby." Alyssa muttered as she waved at him and hee waved back vefirr entering the car.Alyssa watched silently as Imon drove the car away. Even though she knew her son didn't want to stay here, she was glad that at least, the bullying he recieved from his last school won't continue here.He was atsill a child and she knew how much he suffered in his last school because of children that weren't trained well by their parents.When Aiden and Simon were out of sight, Alyssa walked back into the house.

    Emma stormed into the principal's office, rushed towards her son and lovingly picked him up from where he sat."What happened to you?" Emma asked in concern as she touched his red face and assessed his torn clothes.Seeing his mother, Xavier feigned pain even though he was completely fine a few seconds ago and that made Emma grow angrier than she already was."What type of kindergarten is this? After all I've spent here I still have to see my son in such a state? What do you guys even do here?" She asked angrily.The principal bowed her head in fear, not bothering to utter a word as that would only bring more issues for her. Emma is one of the biggest investors they have, coupled with the fact that she's the Alpha's sister.No one wanted to cross her as they were scared of being outed. The principal turned in fear and when her eyes met with Aiden's, the fear quickly switched to anger."You!! You caused this! Apologize right now!" The principal ordered.Aiden stood his ground and refus

    "Apologize for what you said to Aiden!!" He ordered leaving everyone in the room stunned.Alyssa wasn't left out. She never expected him to take Aiden's side because of how he used to treat her before. Anytime she was in an altercation with others, he always blamed her even though he knew she wasn't at fault.It was much easier to blame her because he enjoyed seeing her suffer. She expected him to treat Aiden the same way but no, he was defending him. Has he really changed??"B..but why??" Emma stuttered out in shock but Ezekiel still stood firm in his defense of Alyssa and their son against his sister and her child."This would teach him never to mock others. Apologize to Aiden!!" Ezekiel ordered in more authoritative tone.Seeing his mother couldn't be of help anymore as she had already succumbed to Ezekiel's strong attitude, Xavier gave up."I'm sorry Aiden." He apologized reluctantly."Next time, be mindful of the words you throw at others. It might not always end with a few excha

    Even though Alyssa tried to struggle, Ezekiel forced her and made her go with him to the hospital. On the way to the hospital, she kept giving Ezekiel small glances.She noticed the small frown lines on his forehead and how he tapped his finger impatiently on the steering wheel. He was worried. But why?"Why is he suddenly caring for me?""Why is he suddenly acting like I matter to him?""Why is he acting like things are better between us?"Alyssa had many questions im her head but no answer to them. She couldn't even ask Ezekiel because she knew he was going to lie or turn back to the scum he used to be. The only thing she could do was sit and watch till he couldn't continue with his act anymore.Knowing him, it won't take time for him to go back to who he once was. She moved her eyes to the mirror in the car and noticed how happy her son was in the back seat, being swamped by many toys.She doesn't care whether Ezekiel truly changes or pretends to change towards her.

    She turned back to face Cindy only to see a wide smirk appear on her face. That was when she realised she had fallen for her trick once again. She scoffed with a small head shake and moved away from shere Cindy laid.Like she had expected, he had gone back to whom he uses to be. Just one small act from Cindy and it was enough for him to drop all of the act he has been putting on since.They really do fit each other. Five years had passed and they still didn't change how they used to be. Cindy was always faking pain and Ezekiel would keep running to her rescue like someone whom a spell had been casted upon.He couldn't see the truth whenever Cindy faked being in pain and she knew that so she always made sure to always use it to her advantage. She had always been used to his indifference towards her whenever Cindy was involved so this didn't hurt her neither was it surprising to her.What made her annoyed was that he still had Cindy and now, she is even pregnant for him. Why did he stil

    "Instead of blaming others for a stupid lie, why don't spend more time in taking care of your Luna." She sneered at him before leaving with Aiden, not bothering to spare them anymore glances.Ezekiel felt his heart tighten in his chest as he watched Alyssa leave with Aiden. He messed up again, big time. He needed no soothsayer to tell him that.He thought of how she stared at him angrily and how she kept saying she didn't do what he was accusing her of but he didn't listen. He was blinded by what Cindy had had claimed that he even tried to force her to apologize.He turned to face Cindy only to see her fidgeting on her spot. Seeing his red eyes, she was expecting him to lash out at her. Not just her, the onlookers were watching quietly to see how their Alpha would punish the lying wench.Just then, Ezekiel realized that many eyes were watching. He was too engrossed in making Alyssa pay for 'assaulting' Cindy earlier that he didn't realize that there were people watching.One cold and

    《At the office》Ezekiel tried so hard to drown himself in his work but he couldn't concentrate. His head was filled with the memories of what transpired within him, Alyssa and Cindy hours ago.He was grappling with guilt when he recalled how he forced her to apologize for what she didn't do. For some reasons, even though she was angry, she didn't look surprised by his sudden request.He noticed a how a small smile that appeared on her beautiful face and how she stared at him in disappointment. She looked like she had been expecting something like that from him.It made him wonder how many times he had done something like that to her. Sure, he knew that Cindy could be cunning sometimes and lie about things that didn't happen but....He groaned when memories of how he treated her in the same way five years ago came to him with full force. He had done much worse and at that time, he felt really good about it. There was no ounce of regret in him then.Looking back, he realized how bad he

    《At the mansion》After Alyssa left the hospital with her son, she took a taxi back to the mansion."It's high time I got my own car." She thought to herself.She didn't want another situation where she had to ride with Ezekiel again. She doesn't want to have anything to do with him anymore. The news about Cindy's pregnancy was enough to remind her of where she stood in his life.She walked to their room and helped Aiden take off his torn clothes. After that, she took him to the bathroom and bathe him before putting on a new set of clothes on his body.They sat facing each other on the bed as Alyssa applied ointment on the scratches he had gotten from his fight with Xavier. She winced as she treated him even though Aiden showed no signs of being in pain.She had sent him to school in this God forsaken pack for just one day and look what happened. Even though he used to get bullied at the last pack, it hardly got physical.The children just exchanged words with him most of the time. And

    ▪︎●▪︎A week later▪︎●▪︎Alyssa got busier as days passed since she had decided to speed up the preparations for her bakery. She had spent most of her time with Louis as they did business together.During the week that passed, Ezekiel never came back to the mansion nor call her and that gave her a secret sense of relief. Maybe he had finally listened and decided to let her go.What a wishful thinking. She knew it wouldn't be long before he decides to come back. He always leaves and comes back whenever he wants and when she least expects it.But this one week of his disappearance, she felt peace for the first time since she came back here. Everywhere has been quiet. There were no distractions, just her focusing on her life and that of her child.Preparing for the opening of the bakery was strenuous but Louis was there everytime to assist her and she couldn't be more grateful for his help. It would have been harder to do it alone.In that one we

    When Alyssa woke up the next morning, she found herself in a different room, one she had always hoped to wake up in five years ago. Seeing the familiar walls of the room, she was reminded of her encounter with Ezekiel the night before.Her body had been cleaned with new set of clothes on her but she still felt dirty and disgusted of herself. She always claimed that she wouldn't let anyone have any control of her life but this is the second time this was happening.Two times, he had seduced her and two times, she couldn't resist him. It was like she had no control over her actions nor her body. She was ravaged last night and she enjoyed it despite trying not to.She couldn't even fight their bond so how does she expect to escape him?? She wants to let go of the life they had together but one touch from him was enough to make her succumb to him.She can't even resist him so how does she plan to make decisions for herself. She recalled his words last night;

    A low growl let Ezekiel's mouth after he released in her. He collapsed on her but held his weight with his hand from crushing her fragile body. He could hear her soft pants and low moans which were like music to his ears.No matter how angry he gets with her, a session with her was always enough to cool him off. He raised up his head which were on her shoulders and stared at her beautiful face.Her long black hair was all over her sweaty face, sticking unto her flesh. He raised his hands up and was about to move the hair covering her face when she suddenly pushed him away and moved to the other side of the bed like someone was chasing her.He stared at her in both surprise and confusion, wondering why she suddenly ran away from him. She had just been screaming out his name at the top of her lungs few seconds ago."Is she trying to act like she didn't know what she was doing?" Ezekiel asked himself with a sudden burst of amusement.His amusement quickly vanished when he saw the look on

    After seeing the picture sent from the unknown number, Alyssa placed her phone on the table and continued with what she was doing. She didn't want to think about anything concerning Ezekiel nor Cindy so she drowned herself with work.She worked so meticulously in tidying up the bakery with Louis and within a few hours, they were done. After that, Louis offered to drive her to Aiden's school to help pick him up and she agreed immediately.It was easier to do that than to wait to board a taxi, leading to the unnecessary waste money. After she picked Aiden from his school, Louis drove them back to the mansion."Thank you so much for today. The workload would have been more hectic for me if not for your help." Alyssa thanked sincerely as she as she stared at the mansion's huge gate before them."It's fine. Just make sure to let me know whenever you need help with anything. I'm just a phonecall away." Louis said with a small assuring smile."I will." Alyssa answered as she climbed out of t

    Ezekiel woke up feeling better than he did the day before. His wounds had already started healing but it was just a gradual process. He still felt pains on the deeper cuts.As he tried to sit up on the hospital bed, he felt the weight of someone holding him down. His insides bubbled happily as he thought Alyssa came back to stay with him. He had sent Cindy away yesterday so the only person who would be here with him should be Alyssa.Well, that was his hope bit it quickly faded away when he turned to his side and saw Cindy sleeping next to him like a baby. The initial joy he had slowly faded away and was replaced with disappointment.That still didn't stop him from searching for Alyssa as he thought she would still come back to him. There's no way she would ever leave him alone at the hospital. She wasn't that heartless."Alyssa?" He called out as his eyes wandered around his ward frantically. His loud voice disrupted Cindy's sleep and she woke up immediately."You're awake.." She mut

    Alyssa boarded a taxi and it drove them back to the mansion as per her request. She paid the driver before entering into the huge building with Aiden by her side.It was already late and Aiden had eaten to his fill back at the restaurant so she took him straight into their room. Even though Ezekiel had already prepared a separate room for Aiden, she still didn't let him out of her sight.She never trusted anyone in the mansion. Back when she was the only one there, she knew how much she had suffered in the hands of everyone living there.She doesn't even let the servants touch her son or even prepare any food to feed him because she knew no one there liked her. They all worked for her enemies so she was always on guard whenever she was around them.Some people might call her a paranoid person but after what had happeend at the restaurant today, her actions became justified. She realized that as long as she stayed there, she couldn't trust just anyone here in Moonstone keepers pack.Ev

    The wave had been calmed but Alysssa still felt an inner turmoil. The rogue that attcked them was definitely no ordinary one. One could easily tell he was either sent to kill her son or just had a grudge with the child.Why would a rogue who haven't even crossed paths with her son before have a grudge with him to the extent that it would try to end him?? It was definitely not the latter. She was sure someone had hired the rogue.She didn't know about anyone she had offended in Grim hunter's pack but here in Moonstone keepers pack, she knows she has a lot of enemies.There are a whole bunch of people that hated her but she never expected they would go after her son. Worst of all, she can't pinpoint who sent the rogue now that it is dead.Seeing the dead rogue reminded her of her past. How her family and pack were said to be wiped out by them.

    Seeing the rogue wolf lunge towards his family at full force, Ezekiel set to action immediately. He didn't waste any time as all that was in his mind was protecting them at all cost.Forgetting he could shift into his full wolf form too, he ran towards his family and shielded them with his body from harm. The rogue's sharp and long claws dug into his brand shoulders, sending searing pain to his back.Since he had used his human form to block the attacks, the pain hit him worse than it should have but he didn't flinch as protecting his family was his top priority. At that moment, something hurt him more than the pain should have.When he shielded Alyssa and Aiden with his body, his eyes met with Alyssa's and he didn't miss how shocked she was and the look of disbelief that was all over her face as she watched him shield her and their son from harm.Her disbelief increased when she saw the blood seeping through his back.
