Awaiting your comments What did you think Kenzie was so pissed off about? Don't leave the comment box empty, pumpkin!
Alpha Miles POV MONTHS LATER… With Brian gone and Kenzie on the hospital bed, Ambrose and I were mostly comfort buddies. We became close friends. Frequently, we visited Kenzie together. We’d cook and go shopping for things she’d need together. Kenzie didn’t mind we were getting to know each other. If we were going to get married, I should at least get close to her sister since her parents were on the edge of divorce. However, thanks to Zara who bumped into us at the hospital and helped tremendously, Kenzie’s dad wasn’t going to get imprisoned for beating his wife’s child to miscarriage. Thanks to her Detective brother Leo. The only downside – Kenzie’s mum was filing for a divorce. Yeah, she had cheated and lost a baby. So she thought it best to divorce the man responsible for murdering her baby. No forgiveness could come out of this. She had tried to find ways to forgive him and mend their broken relationship. But only hurt and revenge hung in the basement of her heart. For so lo
Alpha Miles POV“I’m not you!” I found myself bursting into feats of anger. Finally, my rage and pent-up frustration were getting the best of me. All those times of holding on against Kenzie for her silent treatment and weird behaviour sort of release. And her father was just the right target. “Unlike you, I won’t put up a fight with my better half just to get the truth out of her. I’m better than that. If she can’t have a decent conversation with me; then I’ll wait till she comes around.”I think my words got to Kenzie’s dad as a punch flew across my face.Hating his bad behaviour, my anger came undone. I charged at him and missed.How could I miss my target?Ambrose came in the way and prevented me from hitting the bastard. Sorry, her father.I had punched her in the face instead. Shit!Kenzie’s dad just gave me a mean stare and went on his way. Not waiting to even check on his daughter.I checked on Ambrose, regretting my actions. “Did I hurt you?”Such a stupid question. With the
Alpha Miles POVI need you at my pavilion now!Alpha Jerry sounded rather too harsh on the phone. Rudeness escaped his action as he hung up the phone.Had he meant to call his Beta or Gamma? Perhaps the call was a mistake.This will be the first time he will be summoning me in such a manner.He had always accorded me the respect befitting an Alpha.Did I do something wrong again?Was my wolf going about wreaking havoc behind my back?How many people have I WRONGED in a day?First Kenzie and now my predecessor-to-be.I searched my thoughts. I never missed pack meetings. I organized enough tea dates between us to discuss politics. I went rogue sighting and patrol duty. I’ve been nothing short of obedient – only deserving of his validation and approval. I couldn’t lose his approval now.I couldn’t imagine my dad’s face if he got to hear I lost the Alpha position.Oh no – I’m thinking too far.Miles, get it together. It’s not that deep.Yes, it’s not that deep. I was overthinking things.
Alpha Miles POVThe crusty air gave me an eerie feeling.I had not slept well throughout the night. Thinking of Zara and Kenzie. And how to reconcile my mistakes.I had called Zara a few times. Of course, she didn’t bother picking up the phone or calling back. I knew she was angry. I had a right to be angry too. Never telling me about the pregnancy and blowing it up to my face was unforgivable.I didn’t mean to release inside her.Okay agreed – it’s kind of stupid to say that now.I sent a text apologising and committing to make things right. Still no response.I was going to call Kenzie too. But didn’t think there would be any need since I would be going to see her at the hospital.I got lucky.Kenzie allowed me the opportunity for a discussion.I could see she was calmer – even apologising for her outrage the other day.Ambrose must have done a good job. Thanks to her.As I was about to apologise, she cut me off.“I know you didn’t know Zara was pregnant for you until yesterday. The
Alpha Miles POVThe introduction went quite well. Both fathers gave their blessings. Oh, there were best of friends now with our union. My father and Alpha Jerry getting along. And the traditional wedding ensued immediately after with a lot of eating and drinking. So much jollification going on.I had not been as ready as I wanted for all this. But everything was panning out well.Even my father had abandoned his anger and congratulated me heartily.“Glad you finally made it to the Alpha position. You are my son indeed.”Oh, that’s what he was proud of. My achievements. Not me as a person. And I had almost ruined his happiness by refusing to marry Zara. Even if I had taken responsibility for the child, that wasn’t enough to make Alpha Jerry forgive me. Knowing his person, he would have eventually threatened me with the Alpha position. After all, there were many eligible men in the super pack from royal lineage. I was just lucky. Or could I have vehemently refused? Probably by now, I’d
I woke up with a sore back; drenched in the pool of our wet sex. Of course, we had sex. Married sex.I craved her even more after our first wedding night together. I felt on cloud nine. It’s like she got better in bed. I don’t remember her being bad either way.I cradled Kenzie in my arms. Only to see she was wide awake. Smiling sheepishly at me.“How long have you been staring at me like that?” I asked still in the glow of our lovemaking hours ago.“For as long as the hours you fucked me.” She scratched my back in pure delight, poking her beasts in my view. I enjoyed staring at them. They reminded me how blessed I was to have encountered such a night.“You mean to say you didn’t fall asleep?”“I enjoyed staring at your handsome face all through the night.”I cooed in her arms until her last statement woke me up afresh.“Did you just say all through the night?”I got up from the bed in a hurry with my limp and overworked shaft dangling from being overused.I raised the curtains and po
Alpha Miles POVThe entire time we feasted, my gaze never left Kenzie’s. To my surprise, she was holding up pretty well. But no façade of hers could deceive me. I knew she was breaking inside.Watching Brian’s father blabber about his daughter’s baby. That was pretty insensitive knowing Kenzie just got out of surgery. After losing her womb.To make matters worse, Zara’s father didn’t mind. His body language was expressive enough even to the blind that he found Kenzie a nuisance. Who had invited her then? Why would they invite her to witness Zara and I’s honeymoon? That was rubbing salt on her injury. Or did they enjoy watching her suffer and wallow in hurt?This was my fault.And to my shock, I barely defended her. Just nibbling at my food.Zara was understanding. She didn’t even reach for my hand or look my way once knowing that would make Kenzie uneasy.“So how are the coronation plans going? 8 days isn’t too far anymore, son.”Did Alpha Jerry just call me son?“The moon goddess has
Alpha Miles POVThe days preceding the coronation passed by slowly. I was excited and anxious at the same time.I was glad to finally have the acceptance and admiration of everyone. The kind of validation I craved from my father. But it was like I was pushing through a wall. Things were different now. Even those who opposed or underestimated me sought my favour.Although it seems I got all this at the expense of Kenzie being by my side.I wasn’t even supposed to have her until after my honeymoon which was to last for three months.In New Crystal Pack, after the official moon wedding, the couple is to have a set apart for three months – nothing more or less.I didn’t want anything more than to be with Kenzie. Only her. No Zara and side attachments like a pregnancy.My heart went out to Kenzie. How she must be feeling now.I called that day to find out how she was coping with her parents' loss. Never breaking down or expressing hurt, she maintained a flat tone. One that told me nothing
