Chapter 81Adrianna POVFrederick's groin looked so hard. I remember all that happened yesterday, but I didn't feel ashamed.He made me feel all the pleasure I hadn't felt in my entire life in a single day. But I realized that I didn't do the same for him.I remember just staying on the bed while he did all the work. I could see he was hurting really bad.I didn't know how men worked but I knew what this meant. At least I saw it the first time we had sex.He was about to stand up when I said, “ I'll take care of it.” He looked at me in surprise. I guess he wasn't expecting me to voluntarily say that.“No, it's fine. You look tired, I think you should shower and have some rest.” He said, trying to get up.“No,” I said, pulling him down to the bed. “I said I'll do it.” I pushed him down to the bed.I emerged from the blanket without anything on. I was entirely naked, I didn't even have the time to put on my clothes last night before falling asleep.I would have felt uncomfortable being
Chapter 82Adrianna's POV“I almost forgot about the kids,” I said to Frederick.He chuckled In return.When I was done putting on Frederick's clothes, I decided to open the door for them.I opened the door for them. “Good morning, mom,” they both said.“Good morning, my babies. How was your night?” I asked, hugging both of them.“It was good, Mom,” Jackson answered.“Dad!” Hailey called, running to join him on the bed.“How are you, sweetheart?” He asked, hugging her.“I'm okay, Dad,” she answered.“Mom, why are you here?” Jackson asked.“What?” I asked.He caught me off guard.“We went to your room, but you weren't there.” He said.I looked at Frederick's face because I couldn't think of anything to say to the kids.“That's because she's slept here,” Frederick said.I looked at Frederick in surprise. I was expecting him to give an excuse, not exactly the truth.“Seriously?” I asked him silently.He smiled when I looked at him.“Mom slept here?” Hayley asked.“Yeah,” Frederick answer
Chapter 83Fredrick's POVI felt really happy splitting chores with Adrianna. It made me feel like we were a real family.That was one of my objectives towards Adrianna, I planned on making her my wife.I sat on my chair at the study thinking about all that transpired this morning when my phone began to ring.I lifted it up thinking it was about work but I was disappointed when I saw it was Amelia calling.I wondered what she wanted this time. I wasn't even planning on answering her call. She had annoyed me a lot of the time. I could end up losing my cool if I answered her call.I ignored her call and continued my work on my laptop. The phone stopped ringing. I was able to focus more.But my happiness was short-lived when she called again. I ignored her again but she kept on calling over and over again.I decided to put my phone on vibration, so I wouldn't hear it ringing. I thought the distractions had stopped but the table began to vibrate.She kept on calling me constantly but I di
Chapter 84Amelia's POVHe hung up the phone on me. Frederick ended the call. This was bizarre.I knew he hated me but I just wanted to try again. I thought he would at least give me a chance.I thought maybe he would have gotten back to his senses. Maybe whatever Adrianna used on him had already been cleared.This wasn't fair at all. All I did all these years was to love Frederick. Why did he have to treat me like this?Even before these whole situations with Adrianna surfaced, I had always noticed something off with him. I knew he didn't like him but I always thought he would grow to love me. That if we eventually got married, everything would turn out just fine.I returned to my seat and placed my hand on the counter. I had to do something today. I just had to know if he would see through what I did.I didn't feel bad for Adrianna, she deserved what happened to her. And I would do it time and time just to see her get hurt.She would have thought twice before returning here. She w
Chapter 85Frederick's POVIt was already late and everywhere was dark. I finished everything I had to do early.Amelia distracted some of the things I had to do but I still finished it. I finished the last straw of my work when it was almost ten. When I was done with everything I had to do in the study, I proceeded to pack my stuff, which I left out on the desk. I decided that I was going to bed early today.I was already tired. It was good Amelia didn't call me again. She should know when to stop and give up.I was glad she took my advice unless it wouldn't have turned out good for her. She was getting on my nerves. The same goes for Shawn.The fact that he always thought he could get Adrianna back made me laugh. I wasn't going to let any of that happen. I wasn't going to let Adrianna go.I arranged my stuff on the table properly and left the study. There was no one in the hallway; it looked like everyone had gone to sleep.I didn't want to disturb them so I didn't bother going to
Chapter 86Adrianna's POVI was glad Frederick agreed to help me find out the truth about my family. I thought as I came here, I would at least get some peace and take my mind off things.I was just lying to myself because no matter how much I tried to hide that I wasn't worried, it always came to mind even if I didn't mention it.I always thought about the reaction on my mom's face when I mentioned it. Ever since then, I couldn't get the picture off my head.I had tried looking for ways to find everything out myself but there was no way I could do everything on my own. I was planning on asking Steven but I thought he would tell me even if he knew anything.That was why I met up with Frederick. I knew I was heading somewhere now that Frederick had agreed.Frederick was an Alpha. It would be easy for him to get any information he wants just with the snap of his fingers.But I couldn't just stand aside and watch him do all the work. My mind wouldn't even be at rest. I wanted to do some
Chapter 87Adrianna's POVSteven and I agreed to meet at a restaurant that was not too far from Fredrick's house.I got ready quickly because I wanted to get there on time. There were a lot of things I had to ask him today, so I didn't want anything to go wrong.When I was done with getting ready, I told the maids I was going out. Just in case Frederick returned and asked where I was, they would have something to say.I made my way out of the house. The restaurant wasn’t far. I could have actually walked there, but I knew Steven would be waiting for me. And I didn't want to keep him waiting.I stopped a cab and got in. Within a few minutes, the cab stopped in front of the restaurant. I paid him, and he drove off.I went into the restaurant and began to scan the room for Steven. I looked around slowly so I wouldn't miss him.I saw someone who looked like Steven from behind, so I went to see if it was him.When I approached him, he was indeed the one. “Adrianna, you're here.” He said.
Chapter 88Adrianna's POVI didn't bother asking him anything. I knew that whatever I was looking to hear from Steven, he wasn't going to tell me.I didn't waste much time at the restaurant. I wasn't going to get what I came here for, so there was no point in waiting.“I have to go,” I said to Steven.“So soon?” He asked.“Yeah. I have to pick up the kids from school. I don't want to keep them waiting.” I lied.“Okay. I'll drop you off then.” He said, attempting to stand up.I stopped him halfway, “ No. I'll go on my own. I don't want to trouble you.” I told him.Knowing that the one person I trusted in the family was also lying to me made me hurt inside.“It's not trouble. You're my sister, remember?” I wasn't even sure I could call myself his sister anymore. He knew that I was leaving because of him. That was why he was trying all means to be on my good side. He didn't want me to get mad.“Yeah, I know,” I said. “But I would like to go on my own.” “Okay, if that's what you want.”
Chapter 117Adrianna's POVOur lips get intertwined in an intense kiss. I felt his tongue play with mine. For some reason, now that he proposed to me, the kiss felt more good.Our past kids were all okay, but having a ring around my shoulder made it better.Frederick's arms wrapped tightly around me while he pulled me closer to deepen the kiss.I didn't hesitate to kiss him back with the same intensity he was using on me.We finally broke apart. Frederick was smiling at me while staring. I smiled back at him, feeling nothing but extreme love for him. There was nothing else I could do other than to stare at him.I had been smiling ever since the ring entered my eyes. At that moment, I felt like the luckiest person in the world.Everything was going well for me. I had a family of my own.I was going to marry Frederick. “I'm really happy you said yes, Adrianna. Thank you for making me the happiest alpha in the world.It got to a point where I thought you would say no, but I kept pushing
Chapter 116Adrianna's POV“I didn't think I would see her again. It has been a long time.” He said.“You two seemed pretty cozy over there,” I said, trying to sound casual.Frederick sighed, starting up the engine. “Adrianna, come on.” He said.“Let's just go home,” I told him.I knew that he noticed I wasn't happy about what I saw but he tried to act casual.“Are you guys okay back there?” He asked the kids.“Yeah!” They chorused.“What's wrong with mom?” I heard Jackson ask Frederick.“I have no idea.” He said.“What's wrong, mom?” Hayley asked me.“Nothing, dear. I'm just tired.” I said to her.I knew I said we should go but he should have said something. Instead, he just focused on the road with a neutral expression.He should have known that I would be jealous. Wasn't it obvious? Didn't I make it obvious enough?I decided to remain quiet too. I folded my arms, too, and decided to focus on the road as well.We pulled into the driveway. The kids got out and made their way inside.
Chapter 115Adrianna's POVI watched the ladybird hug Frederick as she owned him. They seemed to know each other from way back.I couldn't help but feel jealous seeing them together. I tried to brush it off, telling myself that being jealous was ridiculous, but it didn't help.I looked away, trying to focus on the kids but my eyes kept going back to them.Her hands were on his waist for too long. She was hugging him tight. I might have been exaggerating, but I felt the hug was too clingy and intimate.Who was this woman? And why was Frederick doing nothing about her? All these questions swirled through my head.I had no idea if Frederick had a friend or not. He never talked about it. All I knew was that he went to work and dealt with his pack problems.I didn't know what was going on there. Frederick reciprocated the hug without any argument. His hands were around her, holding her close with a smile.I watched them, feeling my jealousy increase. I couldn't believe my eyes. Why was Fr
Chapter 114Adrianna's POVWe had arrived back at home. My encounter with my father wasn't what I expected.My father apologized for what he had done to me, and so did my family. I never imagined seeing that day.It didn't take me long to eventually forgive them. No matter what, I still loved them.“Mom! Dad! They're back!” I heard the kids shout as we walked in.Frederick scooped them into a hug. “We're home.”Frederick said, with a smile on his face.“We missed you guys,” they chorused.“We missed you too, baby,” I said to them. no idea what was the reason for going there.“Yeah, we saw her,” Frederick responded when I didn't respond to them.He was always one step ahead of me. He knew when to act when he thought was right. The kids filled us in on how their day went. How they played games and watched movies all day. They filled us up with the movies they watched. Before I left, I prepared lunch for them. All they needed to do was to heat it.The room was filled with chatter and
Chapter 113Adrianna's POVI almost burst into laughter at the sight of my father asking for forgiveness. “You're asking for forgiveness? You? After everything you've done, you're asking me to forgive you?You aren't even capable of apologizing to someone, let alone me. All these are just a trick. A trick to try and manipulate me again, but this time it isn't going to work.”I took another step closer to him.” You do not get to apologize now, not after all these years. You don't get to act like you care about me all of a sudden or you see me as a person.You had decades to make everything right, but you did nothing. All you did was like and manipulate me, Dad.” I said, furiously.“I can't even call you that because you aren't even my real dad.You are not sorry; you're just sorry you were caught. You are only sorry because I found out the truth.If I didn't come here to say all these, you wouldn't think about apologizing to me.” I walked back to my mom. “Can you at least tell me why
Chapter 112Adrianna's POVFrederick and I drove back to my house. He insisted on coming with me.Frederick's proposal had caught me off guard, and I was still trying to process everything.I cared about him deeply, but marriage at a time like this. I wasn't sure I was ready yet.When we got there, I was hit with the memory of me and my father arguing the other day.“Hey, are you okay?” Frederick asked after we got out of the car.I nodded. “yeah, I'm just…it's a lot to take in.”He nodded understandingly. “If you don't want to do this, we can get in the car right now and I'll drive you back home.” He said, looking directly into my eyes.But I shook my head, “No, I need to face this. I need to do this.”I told him.He held my eyes and said to me. “I'm gonna be near you the whole time. Whatever you need, I'll be there.” I took a deep breath and walked into the house. I walked into the living room, and surprisingly everyone was already there.My mom, dad, and Steven were all there.“Ad
Chapter 111Adrianna's POVI sat on Frederick's bed, waiting for him to return from taking the kids to bed. I wanted him to be the first person I would tell about this.I heard the door open, and Frederick's voice as he entered the room. “Hey, what's up? What did you want to talk about that seemed so important?”I sighed, prepared to put out everything I wanted to say, but it was stuck in my mouth,h, unable to come out as much as I wanted it to.“Hey, what's on your mind?” He asked, worried.“When I was with Amelia, she confirmed everything that I thought was right.” I started.Frederick looked confused at first. I knew he wouldn't think about that first because we have been through a lot lately. So, I wasn't expecting him to put the fact that Hayley was kidnapped aside and look for the truth about my parents.“What do you mean? What exactly did she say?” He asked.“She said I wasn't her real sister. My father and mother aren't my parents either. I was suspicious about this from th
Chapter 110Adrianna's POVToday was the day I was to be discharged from the hospital. Frederick was with me there, and he was the one that would take me back home.Finally, after what felt like an eternity, I was discharged from the hospital.I felt really good being out of the hospital. The environment seemed so different.I smiled at Frederick as he helped me into the car. “How are you feeling?” Frederick asked me while we were driving.“I'm okay. Just a bit tired.” I replied, trying not to worry him.He nodded, taking my hand in his. “ We'll be home soon enough. Then we'll get you settled down.”We arrived home, and Frederick helped me out of the car. He was still treating me like I was still injured.He took me inside and settled me on the couch. I settled down on the couch, ready to close my eyes.I heard the sound of feet coming down from the stairs. Suddenly, Hayley and Jackson ran downstairs with bodies full of energy in excitement.“Mommy's home! Mommy's home!” They said in
Chapter 109Adrianna's POV I lay in my bed thinking of possible events that would have occurred if I didn't get in the way. Hayley could have died. I felt shivers in my spine just from thinking about that. I heard a knock on the door. I assumed it was Frederick since he said he would be right back and that he needed to get something.But I was wondering why he knocked when he could have just walked in. “You can come in,” I said, waiting for him to step in.The door opened, and I was surprised, more like shocked, to see Shawn and not Frederick.My smile faltered and I felt a little disappointed that it wasn't Frederick. All the things Shawn had said to me started coming back all over again.“What brings you here?” I asked, trying not to sound too unpleasant.He looks around the room first before looking back at me. “I just wanted to check up on you, and see how you are doing,” he said.I felt uneasy for some reason. Shawn just showed up out of nowhere. How did he even know I was i
