The Magnetic Alpha 249 A Friend In Need
Becca. Jumping slightly from the bed, I gazed around widely, wondering what exactly woke me up. It was then I heard the sound, the peeling of the bell. Remembering suddenly that I had dozed off while waiting for my friend to arrive from the airport as agreed, I left my bed in a race to the door. Throwing open the door without a pause to check who it was, it was a minute before my eyes could focus on the silent figure gazing at me softly from the other side. And then, too emotional to say anything, I jumped into the waiting arms. I didn’t know until now how much I needed those arms until I felt their warmth around me. Just realising how much I have missed her presence. “Let’s go inside, girl, before the management will think we are stuck together, standing still in the hallway in this manner.” Cindy finally murmured after a long moment and it was when I disentangled my arms from around her neck that I realised we had both been crying. Wiping the tears from my face with a trembl
The Magnetic Alpha 250 Nightmare
Becca.Staring at my friend with horror filled eyes, we both turned at the same time with our breath suspended to see my son and daughter standing close to each other with wide horror filled eyes.In that moment, I realised my marriage and trust was not the only thing Christos Fernandez would be costing me, there’s a risk of losing my kids to anger and distrust. Arghhh! Will it ever stop? This unending horror?“Hey cuties, been awhile I saw your angelic little faces. How are my favourite beings doing?” It’s obvious Cindy was in the hope that the kids had not heard that last telling statement of mine and she’s now trying to salvage the situation.But for the glance they barely spared their favourite aunt, it’s not a challenge to see she’s not succeeding. Not in this case that has always been important to my children.Seeing that the kids were almost ignoring her presence after a long time of seeing her, her face became crestfallen and I had to swallow my saliva.In my selfishness, I h
The Magnetic Alpha 251 Paternity Assurance
Becca.“If you are asking if your father knew before our marriage that you and your brother are of his blood, then I will say no, I don’t think so. I don’t think he was aware we meant more than what we were to him.” Trying to keep my feelings and resentment out of my voice, I replied as simply as I could.“And now? Does he know?” This quietly asked question was from my son and I was silent for so long, even I was not sure I would answer. But do I have a choice now, seeing as how they are anxiously waiting for the answer?“Yes, just before I ran away with you the other day, I blurted it out and there is no doubt that he now knows you are his children.” I murmured softly with a loud sigh and the satisfactory glint that came to my children’s eyes almost got me screeching into the woods.Could this mean they are happy to have that man as their father? And if this is true, what will that do to my plans? Will they insist he should be a part of their lives? And if then, how the hell am I sup
The Magnetic Alpha 252 Cindy’s Turnaround
Becca.I sent my friend a quick glance when she sighed loudly before sending me a penetrative look.“You might be wrong about the man. No, wait, don’t get me wrong. I am not saying what happened seven years ago did not happen or that you are to blame, but I am thinking there might be another explanation from that night and you are only seeing it from your own perspective. An innocent twenty year old girl’s perspective Babes.” If right now we’re not seated facing each other, I would think the person talking is not my best friend.“Are you for real right now? You don’t mean that. Do you?” I questioned disbelievingly and what she did was to shrug lightly before gazing at me with bluish eyes that were sympathetic and pleading. I glanced away from her, unable to accept it, especially the sympathy.“Well, I know it’s not what you wish to hear right now, Babes, but as your friend, I must help you to consider it from all angles. Christos Fernandez does not seem to me to be a bad person, despi
The Magnetic Alpha 253 Erica’s Plotting
Erica.“What are we going to do now?” I asked my brother who was reclining on the bed in a lazy fashion and he turned his head slightly on the bed to look at me.“What exactly?” He asked casually and I blinked. Why is he acting as if everything is as it should be?“You are in that mood. Ain’t you?” I accused knowingly and there goes another look.“In what mood exactly?” Again in an unconcerned voice and I wished I could throw something at him.As if he read my mind, he sent me a swift glance. “If you hurt me, you will be grinded by Mum and think of how that will affect your plans.” He reminded me and I had to control my emotions, albeit unwillingly.But wait! “What do you mean by ‘my plans’?” I then glared at him when his last words penetrated.He gave a light shrug. “Well, you are more anxious than me about this. Ain’t you?” His tone was light but I could see the watchfulness in them.Mmmm, so he is not as calm as he is trying to portray? Interesting!“Mmmm, isn’t it funny you are m
The Magnetic Alpha 254 Accepting Reality
Eric.Two things!One, we could hear a familiar voice and it happily dawned on us that our Cindy aunt was around for a visit. ‘When did she get back to the country?’ My sister and I had whispered to each other, thinking she had come to surprise us.But just in that moment we decided to run in for a warm welcome, we heard our mother saying the words that shattered us and equally made us happy at the same time.Christos Fernandez! The man we had thought was just a friend and later to be our step Dad is actually our father? Real father and perplexing of all, our mother wants nothing to do with him again.How cruel and crazy can fate be?But we know our mother had told us the truth during that brief moment of interrogation. It’s obvious she had not known the truth until after her wedding to our father.But how? How did he turn out to be our father?And would we have called him to come over if we had known? And now that we know the truth, what are we going to do about it?Will it be that s
The Magnetic Alpha 255 Tough Decision
Christos.There was a little frown on my face as I sat in my office, contemplating my next move. I had gone to see Becca’s parents again in the hope of understanding some things better and while the meeting with them had greatly annoyed and shocked me, what I felt most was sadness and pain.A deep sadness knowing I had been the cause of so much pain to her and her old parents at such a young age.Of course I’m not trying at all to excuse the despicable behaviour of her parents, no matter what happened, I would not condone parents sending out their kids from their home just for a mistake that could happen to anyone, hell no, I am as disappointed in her parents as Becca must be. But after speaking to them, it’s plain to see how they have regretted their action and how much they have missed their daughter in the past years.The mother had not been able to stop crying! Every time her father talked about how she had gone to the party they told her not to go and then come back home changed
The Magnetic Alpha 256 A Deserved Action
Christos.Glaring at the elderly people in front of me, I opened my mouth.“Why are you just sitting there? You should be angry I took advantage of your daughter and ruined her childhood even though it was not intentional, but well, the fact remains that what I did almost ruin her life. At least if for nothing but the fact that I got drunk enough to misbehave, I deserve a wank from you, her parents.” I told them harshly and even before I finished my words the Mum was already charging at me to hit my face. Hard!The sting of her slap swerved my face to the other side and the pain went all the way down to my toes.‘Holy Goddess!’ Lightning swore loudly and I felt him surging to the forefront to watch the drama with glittery eyes. I could feel his satisfactory murmur so I knew he also felt it’s justified.“That, Mr. Christos Fernandez, is for hurting my baby seven years ago.” Anne Summer muttered and when I saw her rubbing at her stinging palm, I felt no satisfaction. She’s only doing wh
