The Alpha's Castaway Mate: Mummy, Is He Our Daddy? 059. Crossing Paths...
The morning air was cool, with a light smell of rain remaining after the early shower. Liam walked beside me as we made our way to the hotel gates. I let my thoughts wander, only for them to be interrupted by the sound of a car pulling up in front of us."Good morning, Mr. Reeves," he greeted, his voice steady."Morning, Austin," Liam replied casually, though his tone carried authority.I glanced between them, confusion knitting my brows. "What’s this about?”“Everything in place?” Liam asked the man, ignoring my question for the moment.“Yes, sir. Tested and trusted,” Austin confirmed with a small nod before slipping into the cab that had been trailing him.I crossed my arms and turned to Liam. “You bought a car?”“Rented,” he corrected, tapping the hood of the sedan with a slight smirk.“For what, Liam?” My tone carried more disbelief than curiosity.He shrugged. “I don’t like the idea of you hopping from one cab to another. So I rented this. For as long as we’re here.”“Liam—”“Whe

The elevator doors slid open, and I stepped out, my mind a haze as I planned for the rest of the day. That’s when I saw him.Roman stood there, his tall figure blocking the path, as if he’d been waiting for me.For a split second, my breath caught. I wasn’t shocked—no, I’d expected this. Sooner or later, we were bound to cross paths. The timing was surprising.“Roman.”“Ruby.” His tone was low, almost conversational. “We finally met.”I said nothing, holding his gaze as I shifted my bag higher on my shoulder.“So,” he continued, a sardonic edge creeping into his voice, “after all the tricks you pulled at the airport, pretending to travel alone…”“I don’t know what you’re talking about,” I replied, my voice level.“Cut the crap, Ruby,” he hissed. “You know exactly what I’m talking about. That little stunt you pulled—acting like you were traveling with the kids when, in reality, you left them behind.”I tilted my head, feigning thought. “Yeah… it worked, didn’t it?”His lips pressed int

"But this is a different situation," Roman added quickly, his tone pleading."I'm listening," I said, trying not to let my guard down but still, I couldn't help but notice Roman stealing glances at me.He seemed to hesitate for a moment before finally coming out and saying what he had intended to say. "Ruby, we don't have to go through all that.""Let's not waste our time and cut straight to the point."A smirk appeared on his lips as he replied with what I wasn't expecting. "Same way we didn't waste time on our wedding night?I felt my cheeks burning, and it was only when I felt his breath against my neck that I realized how close we were."Are you flirting with me, Roman?""What if I was?""Well, you can keep doing it. It's not like we're in a hurry."His eyes lit up as a smile spread across his face. "You were always a bit of a rebel, weren't you?"You don't know the half of it.""Then show me," he whispered.It wasn’t intentional, but somehow, the conversation had shifted. The tea

"Make yourself at home."As I watched Roman walk into my suite, I tried to ignore the way my wolf stirred uneasily inside me. It wasn’t the first time it had happened since he’d barged back into my life, but tonight… tonight it was different. The air felt charged, like electricity buzzing under my skin, and the longer he stayed, the harder it was to ignore.A quiet part of me hated how easily he slipped into my life—as if the years between us had vanished.I turned away, running a hand through my hair and focusing on unpacking my bag. The soft hum of the hotel’s air conditioning seemed louder than usual, creating a strange heaviness in the room. Shaking my head, I chalked it up to exhaustion and the long day.Then it hit me—the moonlight streaming through the window. Full and bright, it cast silver streaks across the carpet, bathing the room in a glow that made my skin tingle.So it’s the full moon, heightening my senses.Not that I’d noticed it before he arrived—why would I? I hadn

The kiss went on for God-knows-how-long before Roman pulled away, and I felt a pang of disappointment."Don't worry, love. We'll get back to where we left off."The low rumble of his voice sent shivers down my spine, and his words sent a jolt of anticipation through me.I could feel my resolve weakening, my wolf clawing at the walls I'd spent so long building."I...I..." I stumbled over the words, trying to find a coherent thought.Before I could continue, he pulled me into his arms again, his lips finding mine in a gentle kiss. He kissed me, softly at first, but soon his lips began to move hungrily over mine.He sucked and bit down on my lower lips, making me moan in response.He moved his mouth to my ear and whispered, "I want to show you how much I love you. I want to make you happy. I want to make you feel good."All I could do was nod my head as he kissed me, taking steps forward which forced me to move backwards until I hit the bed frame. Roman pulled back a bit and pushed me do

“I see you're very patient, my love. But don't worry, when I'm done…”"Just fuck me already," I interrupted, my voice trembling with desire as I was unable to endure his teasing any longer.There, I said it.My body was screaming for his touch and I have no intention of waiting any longer. I wanted this and I can't wait any longer. Roman on the other hand, seems to be enjoying my pleas as a wilder and wider smirk crept on his face as he shook his head.He didn’t rush, though. Instead, he seemed to revel in my frustration, taking his sweet time as he shook his head.“My lady, don't be in a hurry. Patience, you see, is a virtue. Let me…“ he murmured and then paused in his speech as a sharp gasp, followed by a deep moan filled the room.Roman wasn't shocked at this, mid-sentence as he had used his fingers while he spoke to shift my panties to the side, inserting two fingers into my hot, wet, aching core with a deliberate slowness that sent shivers cascading through me.I gasped sharply,

I lifted my legs, locking them around his waist and I pulled my bra off completely for his hungry eyes to feast on. I knew I needed an orgasm and I needed it very soon.Roman paused, breaking the kiss to moan my name before attacking my neck with ferocity. I'm sure he's going to leave hickeys; he looks like someone who would love them. He’s definitely the kind of person that would want the world to know I was his.He kissed and sucked with fervor, each press of his mouth leaving a trail of fiery sensation in its wake.My breathing took a big turn as I felt the pleasure rise. I was getting close to orgasm, I knew it and Roman wasn't stopping or giving me a moment of rest.Soon, I began to feel my walls grip his fingers as Roman began to struggle to thrust in and out of me.The next moment that followed was something I wasn't prepared for. Roman lowered his head and took a nipple in his mouth, biting down on it slightly, sending pain and pleasure through me at the same time.I shut my e

My breath hitched as Roman's mouth lingered just above my heated core, his warm breath teasing against my slick folds. The anticipation was maddening, my heart pounding in my chest as his dark eyes locked onto mine, filled with an intensity that made my whole body tremble. He leaned closer, inhaling deeply, his eyelids fluttering shut as if savoring my essence.The next moment, his tongue flicked out, gliding across my parted lips in a slow, deliberate motion that left me shuddering uncontrollably beneath him. And that was all it took. A soft gasp escaped me, quickly followed by a moan, “Roman… oh…” My voice quivered, a mix of need and pleasure.He went to work instantly, kissing my pussy lips and sliding his tongue from my entrance up to my swollen clit and back down again. He repeated the motion, each stroke of his tongue slower and more deliberate than the last. My legs trembled, my hands gripping the sheets as he teased me, my wetness increasing with every touch.Gradually, he

The Alpha's Castaway Mate: Mummy, Is He Our Daddy? 186. Reality Check...
Helen’s POVThe afternoon dragged on, stretching thin like a frayed rope ready to snap.Kai’s laptop whirred quietly, his fingers moving across the keyboard in a steady rhythm—the only consistent sound in the room.Everyone else was beginning to wilt under the weight of exhaustion.The twins had been sent to their rooms, instructed firmly not to come back until we called for them. They didn’t argue. That alone told me how drained they were.Esperanza, Keely and Ruby were in the kitchen preparing something for us all. I was going to join them, but they seemed to be having their family/sister kind of bond and conversation going on there.Not that they’d mind me joining them but I just didn’t feel up for it.And then there was Roman.Pacing.Back and forth.Over and over again.Like a caged animal barely keeping itself from breaking something.His fists clenched and unclenched at his sides, his shoulders rising and falling with controlled breaths.Finally, he muttered, "I need some air,"
The Alpha's Castaway Mate: Mummy, Is He Our Daddy? 185. Didn't See That Coming...
Esperanza’s POVI did not see that coming.Like, at all.I wasn’t even paying attention at first. The kitchen fire was way more entertaining than it should have been—watching the twins fumble over their excuses, Roman trying not to laugh, and Ruby looking like she was debating grounding them forever.But then.Then Ruby said it.“Excuse me? They got it from you. You are the troublemaker here.”Roman had called her a little troublemaker too and Ruby gasped like he just exposed her entire existence.At first, I thought they were just bickering like always, but the way they looked at each other? The way Roman smirked like he was remembering something personal?Something wasn’t adding up.I turned to Keely, nudging her lightly. “You’re seeing this, right?”Keely, still amused by the chaos, raised an eyebrow. “Seeing what?”I gestured toward Roman and Ruby, who were now arguing about which one of them was the bigger troublemaker.Roman was grinning. “You started it, Ruby.”Ruby scoffed. “E
The Alpha's Castaway Mate: Mummy, Is He Our Daddy? 184. Beautiful Disaster...
~Rhett’s POV~I flopped onto my bed, staring at the ceiling. This was hopeless."So, since we're back in our rooms—""Since we've been kicked back to our rooms," Little Ruby corrected, sitting cross-legged on the floor, arms crossed like she had just been terribly wronged."Yeah, kicked back," I agreed with a sigh. "Let’s get back to our plan."Little Ruby perked up immediately, her eyes shining with excitement. "Okay, so hear me out… what if we fake a disaster?"I sat up so fast my head almost spun. "No way.""Why not?" she whined."Because we’ve tried this before," I reminded her, giving her a hard look."And?" she asked, tilting her head like she didn't already know.I shot her a glare. "Mom almost drowned."Little Ruby grimaced. "Okay… yeah. Bad example." She waved it off like it didn’t matter. "But this time, we control the situation!"I narrowed my eyes. "Uh-huh. And how exactly do we fake a safe disaster?"Little Ruby waved her hands around dramatically. "We don’t fake it. We j
The Alpha's Castaway Mate: Mummy, Is He Our Daddy? 183. Stolen Laptop...
~Ruby’s POV~The morning air felt heavier than usual. Maybe it was just me.I stood at the kitchen counter, absentmindedly stirring my coffee, though I had no real intention of drinking it. My mind was tangled in too many thoughts, one looping louder than the rest.Liam loves me.He actually said it. And now? Now, I had no idea what to do.I’d spent the morning avoiding him, keeping my conversations brief, and dodging eye contact whenever possible. Liam had tried—oh, he had tried—to catch my gaze, to start some kind of conversation about it. But I wasn’t ready.Not now. Maybe not ever."Mom, can I have cereal?" Rhett's voice pulled me from my thoughts.I blinked, looking down to see him already climbing onto a chair to reach the cabinet."Yeah, of course, baby. Let me help." I moved on autopilot, grabbing the cereal and pouring it into his bowl.Little Ruby came in a second later, rubbing her eyes. "Is Uncle Liam still here?"I tensed for just a moment before nodding. "Yeah, he was ou
The Alpha's Castaway Mate: Mummy, Is He Our Daddy? 182. Twin's Decision...
~Little Ruby’s POV~The house felt weird that night.It was too quiet.Even though the lights were still on and the TV played some show nobody was really watching, it felt like something heavy was sitting in the air, making it hard to breathe right. Mom was sitting on the couch, looking tired, and Aunt Helen had her arms crossed, staring at nothing.Rhett and I sat near the stairs, not really sure what to do. Usually, there’d be talking or laughing, or maybe Aunt Helen would be telling Mom one of her long stories that didn’t make sense. But tonight? Nothing.Then the front door opened.Uncle Liam walked in, and everything felt even weirder.He looked around really fast, like he was trying to figure out what was wrong.“Uncle Liam!” Rhett and I said together, but not in our usual happy way. Just… normal.“Hey, kids,” he said. “How are you?”“Good… I guess,” we both mumbled at the same time.His eyes moved to Aunt Helen. “Hey, Helen.”“Hi, Liam.”Then he looked at Mom.I saw something
The Alpha's Castaway Mate: Mummy, Is He Our Daddy? 181. Confession...
~Ruby's POV~The house was unusually quiet that night.Even with the kids around, the usual laughter and chatter were absent. Instead, a heavy tension hung in the air, pressing down on all of us like an invisible weight.Helen sat stiffly on the couch, arms crossed over her chest, her eyes distant. The kids lingered near the stairs, speaking in hushed voices, exchanging glances as if sensing the unease but not quite knowing what to do with it.And then Liam walked in.The second he stepped through the door, his sharp gaze swept over the room, taking in the atmosphere. “Uncle Liam!” The kids said in a neutral tone. “Hey kids, how are you?” “Good… I guess.” They both chorused.His jaw clenched slightly as his eyes landed on Helen. “Hey, Helen.” “Hi, Liam.”Then on me.He saw it. The frustration. The tension. The exhaustion.He didn’t ask questions right away. Instead, he sighed, running a hand through his hair before speaking. “I need to talk to Ruby. Alone.”Helen nodded, standin
The Alpha's Castaway Mate: Mummy, Is He Our Daddy? 180. Father's Rights...
~Roman’s POV~I ran a hand through my hair, exhaling sharply.Oh my god.This changes everything.I turned my gaze to Rhett. If he already had this kind of strength at his age… it could only mean one thing.The prophecy might be true.I stared at him, my mind racing through possibilities. His innocent face held no idea of what he had just done, what it could mean. If he was already showing signs now, then there was no more time to waste.Before I could even process my next thought, the front door swung open.Ruby.I’d already heard her coming, already bracing myself for this conversation.“Hey, Mom!” The kids ran toward her, their voices light, innocent—completely unaware of the storm brewing between us.Ruby barely had time to acknowledge them before I stepped forward.“Why didn’t you tell me?” I asked with a firm but low voice.She barely spared me a glance, her focus shifting. “Where’s Aunt Helen?”“At the back,” Rhett answered.Ruby let out a breath and then looked at the kids. “G

~Roman’s POV~Hours earlier…The day's burdens felt overwhelming. My office was a mess of scattered files, unfinished reports, and half-empty coffee cups. I was exhausted, my brain fogged from hours of staring at documents that never seemed to end.With a sigh, I shoved the last folder aside and leaned back in my chair, rubbing my temples."Enough."I needed a break.Dragging myself out of my office, I made my way to the living room. The couch welcomed me like an old friend as I sank into it, grabbing the remote and flipping through the channels mindlessly.Nothing caught my interest.That’s when my gaze landed on the iPad sitting on the coffee table.I hesitated.For a second, I debated whether to check or not. But curiosity won over restraint.I reached for the device and tapped into the camera feed linked to Ruby’s house.And what I saw made me sit up straighter.Liam.Helen.The kids.All walking into Ruby’s house.I stared at the screen, trying to process it. The kids weren’t sup
The Alpha's Castaway Mate: Mummy, Is He Our Daddy? 178. Truth...
~Ruby’s POV~The moment I saw my kids, everything else faded."Mom!" Their voices rang out, high-pitched and filled with excitement as they sprinted toward me.I barely had time to brace myself before they crashed into my arms. My hands roamed over their backs, checking for injuries or anything unusual."How are you two doing?" I asked."We're fine," they chorused.Little Ruby tilted her head up at me, her dark curls bouncing. "It's been a while, Mom.""Yeah... I really missed you two." I squeezed them tighter, as if that would make up for lost time.Helen’s presence caught me off guard. "Helen? How—why did you come too?" I stammered.She nodded, a knowing look in her eyes. "I had to. Marcus can take care of Mom."I swallowed down my gratitude and hugged her too. "Good to see you."Then, I turned to Liam. He was standing there, arms crossed, waiting. He looked the same as always—casual, composed—but I knew him well enough to see the flicker of questions in his eyes."Liam," I said, st
