Writer’s povAndra didn’t know how to explain it to Aliya so she just thought there was no need telling her about it.“You are obviously avoiding him, it’s fine if you don’t want to talk about it but you should call him, he looked really worried.” Aliya said to me while we were at the restaurant.I don’t even know what to say to him, I just keep remembering the kiss we shared which is why I’m too shy to speak to him right now.“We shouldn’t have gone out to celebrate last night.” I muttered.“What did you say?” Aliya asked thinking I was talking to her.“Never mind.” I replied to her and placed my hand on my chin while in deep thought. I don’t know how Ryder is feeling about it and ignoring him might make him feel worse.After lunch I headed back to the office with Aliya, I was still feeling bad, when I got to my desk I picked my phone to check if he has called and he was still yet to call.“Is he upset?” I asked myself and dropped the phone back on the desk.I was not able to concent
Alpha Daniel pov“Mom!” I screamed at the top of my voice when I couldn’t find the papers I left on the center table a few minutes ago.“When will you learn that I’m your mother and stop yelling my name like I’m your child!” My mother yelled back angrily. I was not interested in hearing what she has to say, what matters to me right now is my file.“Mom, you were here with me a few minutes ago when I left those papers here, did you take them?” I asked her calmly while staring at her face to see her reaction.Yolanda did not react like she took the papers with her which got me a little scared.“I didn’t take anything Daniel.” She replied to me reluctantly and walked away. I stood there like a statue looking confused, how did the paper go missing, or did I drop it somewhere else? I placed my hand on my head frustrated as I looked around the house.“Good morning Alpha Daniel.” Hope greeted me with a smile on her face as she walked down the stairs, I was not in the mood for that. All I nee
Alpha Daniel povNone of them were responding to me even after raising my voice several times.“Can someone say something?” I asked angrily. Yolanda stood up from the couch and walked closer to me, she held my hand trying to control me from doing something stupid because she knows me better than anyone and she could already tell I was losing my patience.“You can go sit down, I will take care of them.” My mother said to me and I decided to listen.I can’t believe a stranger walked into the pack house and none of them noticed, it has to be someone that knows the pack house very well. I looked around the house and checked if there’s a place anyone can come in without being noticed, how did the person know what the file contains?I placed my hand on my head while my mom was talking to the workers. They were not saying anything impressive so she had to dismiss them.“Camilla, did you see the person’s face?” Yolanda asked. Camilla looked like she was struggling to remember what the person
Deandra povI couldn’t stop pacing around the room when Ryder left my house, I can’t believe he wants me to pretend to be his wife.“What am I supposed to do when I get there?” I asked myself and put my finger in my mouth anxiously, this is a very tough task for me even though I was married once, it’s tough and kind of traumatizing to me.“I don’t think I can do this.” I sat on the bed tiredly and sighed. Track back to the first time Alpha Daniel introduced me to his friends, I was so happy that day that my heart was about to fly out from my chest.My bright smile that day was out of the world. It was his birthday, which is his special day. He wanted me to meet his friends because he has made up his mind to be with me for the rest of his life. Well, that’s what I thought.I heaved a sigh and laid on the bed as bittersweet memories rushed back. I can’t believe he fell out of love.“I should be practicing.” I jumped up from the bed and continued pacing around, while thinking of what to
Writer’s povAndra was still not sure if asking him the question was the right thing to do because she didn’t want to make him think she was doubting him.“The night we went out to celebrate you said something that made me curious.” Andra stared at his face to see if he was finding her words offensive then she would know when to stop.“What is it that I said that made you curious?” Ryder asked Andra. Andra suddenly became quiet. She didn’t know how to reply in a way that will make him cool with her response.“Are you sure there isn’t more to the misunderstanding you have with Daniel.” The look on Ryder's face changed the moment he heard the question she asked him. There was a loud silence at the dinning as they both stared at each other in the eyes.“Why are you asking that all of a sudden?” Ryder broke the silence with a faint smile on his face.“Nothing, I just got a hunch. Maybe I am just overthinking it.” Andra replied and they heard the doorbell ring.Andra knew it was time to be
Alpha Daniel povIt’s been five days already and there’s been no trace of the guy that sneaked his way into the house. I decided to stop thinking too much about it. Instead it’s better I start thinking of a better solution so that by the time they try to use the ledger against me, I will be able to defend myself.“Good morning Alpha Daniel.” Hope greeted with a smile on her face.“You haven’t visited the hospital in a while, is there any reason why?” I asked Hope because I’ve been curious to know why she barely visits the hospital and at this stage of her pregnancy she’s supposed to be visiting there very well.“Uhmm, I was there two days ago, you’ve been too involved in the ledger case so you didn’t notice,” Hope said to me, I paused for a moment and i still can’t remember her leaving the house to visit a hospital.“Is the baby okay?” I asked her and from her silence I could already tell there might be something wrong. She sighed and let out a soft smile.“Yes, I mean what could be w
Writer’s POV Ryder was seated in his sitting room, though he was still bothered about Andra and why she reacted the way she did last night and this morning she left the house without saying anything to him. “I hope she’s okay.” He muttered and sat properly. While he was seated one of his security officers walked into the house with a file. “Good day sir, this came in for you.” He collected the file immediately and a huge grin escaped his lips. “You can go,” Ryder said to the young man and turned back to look at the file. Without opening it one could tell from his expression that it is a very important file. He opened the file without hesitating and went through it, then he brought out his phone and placed a call across to someone. “Hello best friend.” He said excitedly. “You are so shameless, how will you refer to me as your best friend when you left me here and you’re over there living your best life.” The strange person said to him, Ryder chuckled hearing how petty h
Deandra povMy hands were sweaty, I rolled my eyes several times as I watched my phone ring several times.I could recollect her face and how she made my life in the pack house hell. “Andra why are you not saying anything?” Ryder asked. I slowly raised my head to look at him.I couldn’t pick the call until it ended. “Andra.” He tapped my shoulder softly and I immediately snapped out of my thought and stared at him.“Who was that and why were you looking so lost in thought?” Ryder asked curiously.“Yolanda just called me.” I said to him, still looking shocked. Ryder opened his eyes wider than normal when he heard what I said.“Why would she be calling you?” Ryder asked. “Thought you changed your phone?” Ryder added.I was struggling to keep my mental state stable but the too many questions was making it impossible for me.“Yes, I turned the old one on today and started using it again.” I replied to him and just as we were talking about it the phone rang again.“Pick it.” Ryder said to
Deandra povI tried my best keeping my cool for so long but I think it’s never helped me, instead it’s made me look weaker than I really am. I couldn’t hold it in this time because they were saying more than they should already.“Who else would I be asking such a question?” I replied to him immediately. “You don’t know me, you don’t know anything about me, so don’t you dare sit down there and call me naked because you don’t know me!” I said to him angrily and made a fist, it’s the absolute first time Ryder is seeing me like this I guess nothing could stop it this time.“Hey, come on, why are you getting worked up over something I was joking about.” The young man tried to make it look like I was taking it too seriously when it’s just a harmless word.“You and I know that you weren’t joking,” I said to him angrily. Though I was ready to quit the topic and head back to the house, I needed to do it the right way because that’s the only way he would know that he was really annoying.“Fine
Writer’s povYolanda was still thinking of the move to take, she knew that it would not go the way she wants if she keeps telling Daniel to stay away from Andra because it seems like he’s not giving up anytime soon. It was very exhausting for her but she had no other choice but to take that step to protect her son since he has refused to be smart about it. “Mom are you okay?” Daniel asked when he met his mother in deep thought, she raised her head to look at him and walked away. Since that day she has stopped talking to him, she only serves his food and walks away. “Mom, are we going to keep doing this? Come on, we are not children, if you’re with me tell me instead of giving this silent treatment.” Daniel said to his mother as she was walking away. Yolanda paused walking and turned back to look at him, she was wondering if he’s really stupid or he’s too slow to understand that what he is doing is the reason why she has stopped talking to him. Even though she’s thinking of a soluti
Deandra povI knew coming here would turn out like this but I was ready to take the risk, his words were hurtful but I expected them so I wasn’t too upset. “You don’t need to ask for my help before I know you need it.” I explained to him, sounding a little upset, Ryder couldn’t stop sighing while I was seated there which made me feel some type of way, it’s fine if he says what’s on his mind rather than sighing and makes me feel burdened.“Andra, you have your own thing to worry about and that’s your health and that of the baby, what would I do if anything happens to both of you?” He asked calmly. He was slowly calming down when he sensed he was becoming too mean with his words. “My baby and I are fine. I could tell from the way you were talking yesterday that you were really bothered by the loss the company is facing so I just thought I would be able to help the little way I can. Please don’t refuse my help.” I pleaded, I don’t want to have any regrets, which is why I took the bold
Deandra povAfter the conversation I had with Ryder yesterday I finally decided to show interest in the company. Maybe when we work together we would be able to work out something that’ll help the company. While Ryder was leaving the house I watched him without saying anything because I knew he would definitely stop me. “See you later.” He said to me before leaving and pecked me on the forehead. I smiled and waved goodbye while still thinking of how he would feel when he sees me in the office today. After he left the house, I stood up and hurried downstairs to eat breakfast. While eating I kept thinking about the whole situation because I needed a good reason before I left the house. While waiting I decided to place a call across to the Indian investors. They’re the ones I have a good relationship with so it’ll be better I call them, hopefully they would still be interested in the company. After dialling the number I stopped myself again, it was so hard for me to bring myself to ca
Deandra povI couldn’t believe my ears, I was dumbfounded, was it a bad idea to be worried about your husband? I kept asking myself questions, I needed to know where I was wrong but not now, right now I don't want to see his face. “I'm sorry Andra I just…”“Please go away.” I said to him Interrupting whatever it is he was planning to tell me. I just couldn't hear his voice at this point, it has to be my most embarrassing moment since we've had a misunderstanding. I can't believe he yelled at me with such a tone when I was only worried about him.“Andra.” I turned to the other side of the bed showing my lack of interest in what he had to say. Ryder didn't push it anymore he walked out of the room, but almost immediately he walked back into the room and sent everyone away until it was just both of us left in the room. “Did you not hear what I said?” I asked him angrily, even though I was pleased he didn't leave the room like I told him to. “I need you to hear him out, I didn't want t
Deandra pov“Are you not happy to see me?” Hope asked. I folded my hand around my chest angrily when I heard the question she asked me. I wonder what she’s doing here. She lowered her eyes and paused when she stared at my belly. “Looks like the baby is kicking well.” She said to me and chuckled. I know she’s not genuinely happy for me so why is she pretending to care?“That doesn’t answer my question. Hope, what are you doing here?” I asked her angrily. The fake smile on her face slowly faded and her true personality was finally out. “I came here to show you my face, I need you to remember how you ruined my life.” I couldn’t believe my ears. What does she mean by that? If we want to talk about a ruined life wouldn’t that be mine?“You know very well that you are not welcome here, your husband and his mother were exiled so what are you doing here?” Ryder asked angrily. He was even more upset because she was acting like it is her right to be here in the first place. I didn’t want Ryd
Writer’s povYolanda covered her mouth with her hand when she had an idea of where her son was, they were just talking about it before he left the house, then he took the initiative of going there immediately, she was hurt and disappointed at the same time, it became clear to her that her son had no initiative of handling such situations especially when they’re in such a mess. “Mom, I have told you she’s innocent, I was watching them over the months and I know that she had no hand in what happened, it was all his doing.” The moment he stopped talking Yolanda landed a heavy slap on his cheek with the intention of bringing him back to his senses. Daniel was shocked that his mother laid her hands on him for the first time. He was startled with his hand still on his cheek and his mom regretting her actions already. “Why do you keep making me do the things I hate the most? Why do you keep making me do these things?” Yolanda asked angrily as she was already regretting the slap she gave hi
Andra povI couldn't believe what was going on, so much that I started to ask myself if I was seeing wrongly. “Did I do anything wrong?” Ryder asked, he looked like he was trying to leave so that I don't stress too much while telling him to leave. “No, don't go, I wasn't talking to you.” I said to him trying to stop him from leaving the house, it felt like I was losing my sanity all of a sudden, I couldn't wrap my head around what just happened. Ryder didn't look like he saw him because I would be able to tell if he had seen Daniel. “You really didn't see him?” I asked to confirm. “See who?” Ryder asked, looking worried already. I didn't say anything when I noticed he really didn't see him. “It's fine, never mind.” I said while I was still trying to understand what just happened. “Are you sure you're okay?” Ryder asked. “I want us to leave here, I can continue my treatment over there, I don't want to stay here anymore.” I said to Ryder pleading that he lets us leave the hospit
Andra pov“Good morning.” Ryder greeted with a bright smile on his face, we were yet to sort out misunderstanding but we were still having good conversations.“Good morning Ryder.” I replied to him and stood up from the bed tiredly. I have been having serious pains since last night and this morning it had only gotten worse.I gently headed to the toilet with my hand on my waist, it was really a struggle for me to get to the toilet.When I got into the toilet I placed my hand on the vasin struggling not to scream as the pain had only gotten worse.“Andra, are you okay?” Ryder asked. I didn't want to reply to him but I was in too much pain so I couldn't hold it in anymore.“I'm not.” I said to him, still struggling.Ryder rushed into the toilet and helped me out of the toilet. When we got out he immediately asked for help and Emma rushed into the room to help as well. I was in severe pain at that point and it's not even nine months yet.I couldn't stop screaming while they were helping
