I sighed as I opened my eyes from yet another sleepless night. I looked toward Amelia’s sleeping figure and wished that it was someone else instead. It’s been about four years since she left, but she’s all I could ever think of. Is this the consequence of my selfishness four years ago? If I wasn’t so stubborn, would I have been happier now?A lot of questions still linger in my mind— Has she been doing well? Is she living a better life now? Does she have someone else who holds her in her sleep?
The last question made my head hurt, so I got up from bed and splashed my face with cold water. I didn’t bother waking Amelia up. I just went downstairs to the kitchen to have my usual breakfast.
I thought about what happened during the past few days. Amelia and I’s child, Devyn, just celebrated his 4th birthday, and it’s one of the rare moments where I felt genuinely happy. I might feel indiffere

EmeryI sneezed upon waking up; the dust on the ceiling must have fallen while we were sleeping. I looked at Arlo’s cute sleeping figure and brushed the dust away from his face.We have a lot to do today. First, we have to get the house cleaned up, then we have to go to the mall to buy some clothes and other necessities, and after that, I need to find a babysitting service that can look after Arlo while I try to hunt for a job.But before any of that, I need to cook some breakfast for the both of us. It’s a good thing that I’ve packed some dry pancake batter; otherwise, we wouldn’t have anything to eat this morning.I went down quietly to the kitchen so as to not wake Arlo up. Then after cooking some pancakes, I gently shook him awake so we could start the day.We finished eating our breakfast, and Arlo was now sitting on my lap, playing with a Rubik's cube that he was able to pocket before we left our old hou

EmeryToday was Arlo’s first day in the daycare center, and he was excitedly munching on his cereal next to me. I stroked his hair.“Are you excited?”He tried to calm down and hide his excitement, but I could see the slight shine in his eyes.“No, mommy. I’m cool.” He responded.I giggled. When did this young boy learn how to be cool? He surprises me more and more each day. How can a four-year-old read the situation?“Yeah, sure. You’re the coolest of them all.” I carried him and twirled him around while he pouted with his mouth full.“Don’t do that anymore, mommy. I’m a big boy now. I don’t need to be carried.”I didn’t let him down but instead showered his face with kisses. “Arlo will never grow up. He’ll always be mommy’s little baby.”He frowned and muttered, “I’m not a baby.&r

Kairo“Where are you going off to again?” I asked, tired from pulling an all-nighter because of the pack’s paperwork.“Out,” Amelia answered coldly, not even bothering to look back at us.Devyn and I were currently eating breakfast when Amelia, who was all dressed up, passed us and drank water. She didn’t even acknowledge our presence, and by the looks of it, she was going somewhere again.“Didn’t you promise Devyn yesterday that you’d bring him to his new school? It’s even his first day, so why are you going out?”She sighed, “You take him.”I looked at her in disbelief. “What? But I already took the day off yesterday to take care of his enrollment! I even gave you the chance to meet with your friends so you can accompany him today.”I looked toward Devyn and saw that he wasn't eating his breakfast anymore. His eyes were loo

Emery“No, wait for me! Take me back.” Cindy, the little girl who I was playing dolls with, said while chasing my doll with hers.“It’s your fault. I will never go back to you!” I replied and made my doll run faster.We were currently acting out a scene wherein the ex-boyfriend runs after the girl she rejected when they were younger. I don’t know what came over this little girl, but she said she wanted to reenact a scene in a movie that she watched with her mom.However, this time, instead of the girl just running away, the couple actually gets back together.I don’t know what type of movies an 8-year old watches with her mom, but I certainly did not expect to break out into acting so early in the morning.I guess this is still better than playing with mud with the boys outside.I watched, amused, as Cindy followed my doll and tried to hug her. Since her wish was to get th

EmeryWe fell into an awkward silence once again as we sipped from our teacups at the same time. I don’t know why, but I was quite disappointed with his answer. For some reason, I was hoping that Amelia’s pregnancy was a whim and Devyn wasn’t his child.I was actually quite surprised when he confirmed that Devyn is his son because they don’t resemble each other at all. While Kairo had cold blue eyes and dark hair, Devyn had light blonde hair and honey-colored eyes. The child didn’t even look like Amelia, his eyes were wide, and his lips were small, different from Amelia’s sharp eyes and wide lips.Shit, why am I thinking like this? Why am I analyzing their family? I should be happy for the both of them since they’re still together after a long time.“That’s great,” I answered after a long time. I glanced at the two children playing on the floor and smiled. “He looks like a good kid

Emery“What are you doing here, Kairo?”He scratched the back of his head and looked at me sheepishly, “Uhm, I followed my mom here because she’s been going out frequently these days. She always says that she has some important matter to attend to, and I wanted to see it for myself. I didn’t expect to find you here as well.”I looked at Luna Lilinana for help. I hope that she can get my signal and send her son home.She went beside me and said, “Okay, now that you see what I’ve been up to, then you can go home.” She tried to push Kairo out of the door, but that really wasn't possible because Kairo’s strength was incomparable to hers. “Don’t be a stubborn child and go do your work. Don’t you have a lot of work to do?”He shook his head, “No, I don’t really have much work today because I finished them all last night. I think that I can stay here f

Arlo It was my second day of school, and I didn’t want to go. I don’t want my classmates asking where my real daddy is again. I didn’t tell my mommy about the other kids asking because I didn’t want her to be sad. That’s why I still went to school even if I didn’t want to, to make my mommy happy. My mommy dropped me off at the gate where Teacher Logan was. I greeted him with a bow and went inside the classroom. When I went to my seat, Prince was no longer sitting beside me. I looked around the room and saw that he was already sitting in the front seat. He turned back to me and stuck out his tongue. I frowned. Why would he do that? I didn’t do anything bad to him. I heard him talking to his friends, and I became even sadder. “My mommy told me not to sit next to kids without daddies. She says that they are bad.”His friends nodded while looking at me. I bowed my head down because I didn't like the way they were staring at me. I w

EmeryThe tension was so thick; it couldn’t be cut by a knife. We sat side by side, our children next to us, and none of us looked at each other nor spoke. Logan must have sensed the heavy atmosphere, so he cleared his throat and started explaining the full details of the occurrence.“I’m sorry for interrupting both of your lunches, Miss Emery and Miss Amelia, but I believe that this problem will only be truly solved with the presence of both parents.”“Damn right, you interrupted my lunch.”“It’s no problem.”The both of us spoke at the same time, causing us to look at each other. But, I quickly broke the stare-down because we were here for a different reason. We weren't here to fight.“So I was saying, this recess time, Arlo was found pushing three children down on the ground. I was only planning on calling Miss Emery, but Devyn insisted th

Third Person’s POV On a warm evening in April, the Ford family members are all gathered at one table. Emery prepared their favorite foods, and it seemed like things were going well. They looked like a perfect family, and they are! However, Emery and Laura started talking hushedly and giggling as the dessert was served. Kairo leaned closer to her lovely ladies in an attempt to hear their conversation. Laura turned to her swiftly and scooted closer to her mom. “What are you doing, dad? Can’t you see that mom and I are talking?” Kairo pouted and bitterly ate his black forest cake. “You’ve changed. You used to tell everything to daddy. But I guess you’re too cool for that now.” Laura is now in middle school, and Kairo has been feeling melancholic these past few days. He feels like time is moving too fast, and his once cute children can now live without depending on him. Laura sighed and pushed her seat back in its original placement. “I always tel

Dalton“You signed me up for what?” I asked incredulously as I looked at my group of friends. They were all looking at me with wide eyes, and I couldn’t help but sigh out.Emery fiddled with her fingers and avoided my gaze. “We kind of signed you up for a speed dating event.”I threw my head back and pinched the bridge of my nose. “Out of all things that you could have signed me up for, you signed me up for speed dating? You could have signed me up for a hotdog-eating event, horseback racing, corn tending, you could have even signed me up for a Japanese karaoke reality show, and I wouldn’t hesitate to agree. But this! This is too much!” I said and shook my head.Karina went over to me and shook my shoulders. “Oh, come on, Dalton! All of the events that you’ve suggested are even weirder than the speed dating event! We saw the ad on a very reliable site, so you don’t have to worry about its l

DevynThe birds chirped as I removed the sheets from my body. I wrapped my arms around myself when I felt a soft breeze brush against my bare skin. I let out a deep breath as I felt the bright and vibrant sun lightly hitting my closed eyelids.Wait… Sunlight? Why am I feeling sunlight?I always wake up before sunlight.I jolted up from my bed and checked the time on my phone.8:00 AMWhat the fuck! Why the hell didn’t my alarm go off? I looked at my set of alarms and saw that they were all turned off. I slammed my phone down on the bed and screamed the name of the one and only culprit.“Arlo! You motherfucker!” I screamed while making my way downstairs to find that bastard. He was sitting on the dining table, leisurely sipping his coffee.“Oh! You’re awake. Good morning, brother. Great day, isn’t it?”I walked closer to him and slammed my fist down the table. The mug

ArloI looked at myself in the mirror and could not help but whistle in satisfaction. Staring back at me is the most handsome and charming man that I’ve ever seen. Of course, that man is me. The music in the background only amplified my beauty, and I couldn’t help but look at myself in wonder.However, my self-loving session ended when someone turned off the music. I turned around to scold the culprit and saw my mom.“Mom! What are you doing in my room? Privacy, please!” I said exasperatedly.She gave me a tired look and went beside me. “Arlo, please. I love you very much, and you’re a very handsome boy. But you’re turning borderline narcissistic. You’ve been hanging out too long with your uncle Dalton. I need to speak to your father about this.”I gestured towards my new shoes and complained. “But Uncle Dalton’s a cool guy, mom! He just bought me some new shoes for my first day of s

Third Person’s POVEmery stood anxiously by the door while Kairo bounced in excitement. It has been a while since they’ve gone out on a date, and today, they finally got the chance to do that. Kairo went all out and booked an expensive hotel just outside the city for Emery and him.“Are we really leaving our kids to him?” Emery asked.“Hey! What’s wrong with me?” Dalton asked, distastefulness heard in his voice. “Just look at the kids! They’re so behaved now that I’m here.”After Dalton said that statement, Laura pushed off the contents of the living room table while Arlo chased Devyn with a worm. It seems like the house became more chaotic with Dalton just being there.Emery looked at him incredulously. “Are you serious?” She turned back to Kairo and held onto his shoulders. “Let’s have our date some other time, okay? Maybe when the kids get older.”

KairoToday, Emery is taking Arlo and Devyn to their monthly haircut, so I had to stay at home to take care of baby Laura all by myself. Laura is now three years old, and she’s the most energetic that she’s ever been. She wasn’t awake yet at the moment, so I had some time to breathe for myself.Emery had just finished arranging the boys’ bags when I went behind her to give her a back hug.She chuckled and turned around. She brought her arms around my neck and gave me a peck on my pouty lips. “What are you acting like a big baby for?” She asked softly.“You’re leaving me alone,” I whined.Emery chuckled. “I’m only going to take the boys for their haircut. It’s only going to take two hours at most. Besides, this is going to be a great opportunity for you to exercise your fatherhood. You haven’t even tried being alone with Laura now that she’s a toddler.”
The Alpha's Hidden Child Special Chapter: The First Words
Third Person’s POV Time flew by pretty quickly, and baby Laura is now a year old. Being an exceptional baby, she quickly developed the skills of a toddler, even as an infant. At a year old, she can already walk and write basic letters. She can even hum a tune! However, what is strange among all of these, is that she hasn’t uttered her first words yet. There were plenty of times when it felt like she was finally going to say her first words, but she sure does know how to play push-and-pull. Since everybody’s anticipating her first words, they’ve placed bets among themselves on what her first words are going to be. The group of friends was sitting on the floor in the living room. Along with them were Arlo, Devyn, and the grandparents. Crassus slammed his foot down the floor and intimidatingly looked at all of them. “I’m telling you right now. Laura’s first words will be ‘mama.’ It will always be ‘mama.’ Every other child that I’ve known

Third Person’s POVEmery is currently nine months pregnant, and everyone inside the house has been walking on eggshells. Her belly has protruded so much that she couldn’t even see her feet, and the gang feels like she’s ready to give birth at any time. All throughout the week, there have been many false alarms, and I guess this day was no exception.Karina and Emery were sunbathing near the pool while gossiping about the new human settlers just near the borders.“Did you see the way those girls looked at our mates? I couldn’t believe that they have the audacity to take their numbers when we were literally next to them!” Karina rambled.“Right? And can’t that blondie even see my baby bump? Like hello? You’re hitting on a baby daddy?” Emery rambled with her.“Ugh, it’s so hard being a woman. Imagine! We’re the ones having our periods every month, we’re the ones who&rs
The Alpha's Hidden Child Special Chapter: The Disastrous Gender Reveal Party
Third Person’s POVThe group of friends was currently sitting down on their living room couch, huddled over Kairo’s laptop. It was pretty late at night, so the kids had all gone to sleep. They were currently watching gender reveal parties on a video platform.Different kinds of snacks were laid down on the table, and only the sound of the videos, along with their munching, could be heard in the room. They were on their fifth video now, but each member’s reaction was still lukewarm. Tired from all the mediocre gender reveal parties, Dalton roughly shut down the laptop and stood up.“I’m sick and tired of these videos. They’re too boring! It’s not enough for the unborn child of the strongest Alpha in the world and a Lycan. We need to go beyond all of these! We need to invite every pack that we can and show the world just how precious your future child is. Who’s with me?” He exclaimed with exaggerated motions.
