42 The Provocation

Becca.

It took some minutes before the ominous silence penetrated into my brain and I dropped my hands from my face to raise my head slowly up to peek at him.

What I saw on the man’s face chilled me from head to toe. I had never seen so much furious coldness on a man’s face before.

He continued glaring at me for a long time and judging from the little but noticeable pulse that was ticking timely at his jaw, I knew it was to get his emotions back under control. I was transfixed. Never have I seen a man fight for control before.

“I don’t hit women, you idiot.” He finally clarified and this part was volunteered more as a curse than an assurance.

And before I could react to either his assertions or insults, the man turned on his heels and just as abruptly as he appeared at my door, he was gone at the same moment.

It was a long time before I could stop the trembling in my body and to release the pent up breath I did not know I was holding since.

Wondering if it would not be best all around

    Eric. I took up the analysis from where my twin sister stopped. “Right! Which means there is a less likely chance Cindy aunty will not know of Mum and our father.” I finished softly and my sister sent me a swift look that conveyed her pain and excitement. “Which means someone is lying to us?” She didn’t wait for me to say anything to that before continuing though and I didn’t mind.. “Do you think all we have to do is find a way to keep pressing Cindy aunty for more information?” Erica cried excitedly, as if she thought by holding our aunt by the throat she would confess everything. “I don’t think it is that easy.” I hated to be a fun buster but it has to be said. I would not allow my sister to raise her hope needlessly. “How do you mean it won’t be easy?” Her voice was all shades of indignation. “Well, think about it. If Cindy aunty is not willing to talk by now, do you think we will have much luck?” I asked with a sardonic reflection that is noticeable beneath my words. “You m

    Erica.The next day, sitting on my brother’s twin bed while pretending to read a book, I gave him a surreptitious glance and what I saw infuriated me.I could not believe my twin was so insensitive that he could not understand everything was not as it should be. Again!Here I am, still trying to cope with the disappointment of yesterday’s revelation and now, I am being besieged by another emotion. Again!Can’t a girl just have a break? Is it not enough already knowing and having to accept that we have a shameless personality for a father and we just have to forget the dream of having a complete family? Now, no more hoping he would one day show up to man up to his responsibilities with him being a full time father to us and a doting husband beside our Mum.Coupled with that disappointment is the realisation that we have been deprived of a real friend without us suspecting anything until it was too late.Raising my head again from the most boring book I was pretending to read, I glared

    Erica After an intense look at my face, he blew out a frustrated breath. “Considering we have started school and Mum feels we need to stay at home on the weekends to do our homework and other activities, how do you intend to achieve that?” Eric asked slowly and I gave my head a negative shake. “I don’t know and that is why I am asking you. What can we do? It is obvious she has no intention of permitting us to go to her work place again, which means we can no longer see our new friend.” I honestly don’t understand why she is doing this though. It’s as if she hated our association with her Boss. “I have also thought about it, Rica, but I honestly don’t have an idea of how to make her change her mind.” It is obvious Eric has pondered on it also despite my assumptions, I could hear the frustration hidden in his voice. “What if we make the move then?” I suggested slowly, watching for his mood. “Move? What move are you talking about?” He asked softly but from the look I could see in h

    Becca.Inhaling deeply the aroma wafting towards me from the kitchen, I walked more eagerly into the house. With the intention to check on the kids and then have a short bath before we all come down for dinner, I moved to go upstairs knowing I can say hello to Mary later.But just before I took the stairs up, I heard deep laughter and I quickly made a detour towards the second sitting room.Even before I opened the door, I could hear the soft voice of my friend Cindy and a gentle smile came to my lips.A regular visitor to my home, I was not surprised to know that my friend was there with my kids. Probably came to say hello knowing this is the first weekend they would be spending alone without me.Holding the straps of my heels in one hand, I opened the door with a warm smile on my lips.“Hello guys! Having fun without me hmm?” I greeted cheerfully, but even if the sudden silence that confronted my greeting had not alerted me, the swift guilty look I saw flashing across the faces of m

    Becca. I knew she was trying to guess at my mood but I pretended not to see it.“Angry at the kids and me?” She finally asked softly and I spared a few glances.“More like confused and hurt. Why would you guys do that to me?” I decided to reveal a little of my frustration.“We did nothing, dear. At least the kids meant no harm. As for me, I only got an invite for dinner which I did not see as a big deal coming from them. Not until I got here and I saw that there was another guest waiting. Well, by then, it was too late to do much of anything.” She ended with a shrug and I gave her a disgruntled look.“I believe a call of warning would not have been too much, would it?” I snorted coldly.“Oh come off it, babes, we both know a call at that time would achieve nothing but cause you more worries and palpitations before you got home. And I sure did not think you needed that. Did you?” My friend almost snapped.“Well, it would have at least stopped me from embarrassing myself like that. Ima

    Becca.I refused to be pressurized.“Well, let us be grateful that I am not every girl. Can we?” I declared obnoxiously and I could see my friend was not satisfied with my answer. She gave a snort of her pointy nose. “But your kids are crazy about him, what are you gonna do about that?” Pointedly, she went straight to one of the topics disturbing my mind these days.“I will admit my kids seem to like the man, fair enough, and I can’t deny he seems to find them interesting too, but I am sure it is just about that old adage, opposite poles attracting the other. My kids had never been exposed to a man like him before and they are intrigued. It is nothing special, they will get over it once they start making friends of their age.” Casually, I made her realise it was nothing to capitalize on.“If you believe that anyways, but I still feel they look so much alike.” My friend maintained and I was almost feeling irritated.“Of course they may look alike, it is possible. It is usually like th

    Becca. ‘You’re nothing I can’t handle.’ I passed across with a glare. “Of course. It is obvious you are a strong woman.” He answered softly and my eyes went to him in a swift glance. I was so confident he was mocking me but all I saw in his face was nothing but seriousness. As if he was merely stating a fact. “Is that a compliment, Mr. Fernandez?” I found myself asking sarcastically and the man almost scorched me with the power of his eyes. “Only if you wish to take it as one.” He replied nonchalantly and I almost pulled out my tongue. Almost, but for the fact that I know my kids are watching, I pulled hard on my restraint. “Then I should thank you, should I?” Although I said this in a sugar coated tone, I was sure he could detect the animosity underneath it. But he was not the only one. I felt my friend’s surprise even before she inhaled deeply in that fashion that showed she was not impressed with my attitude. I turned my head slightly to the side to glare at her. “Have som

    Becca. I waited for the wailing and tears I knew was coming but it never came. I peeked at their faces only to see my kids exchanging a proud smile. “It is funny you don’t know Mum.” My son said with a pitying smile and I wondered what I was missing here. “Know exactly what, son?” But it was obvious even to me that I really did not wish to know the answer. “That next Friday is a school holiday. There won’t be any school so we are free to go.” My daughter cried excitedly and the sounds felt strange to my ears. “Next Friday is a school holiday?” I found myself repeating softly and my kids nodded with a booming smile on their faces. “Yes Mum and now you can't stop us from going.” My son declared firmly, making it obvious they knew my games all these while. “It seems kids these days are wiser than we give them credit for.” That annoying man murmured softly and my disloyal friend chuckled in agreement. I included both of them in a fierce glare. Deciding it was best to accept the p

  • The Magnetic Alpha   286 Alpha’s Shock

    Christos. “What?” They all screamed at the same time including the twins. “Becca didn’t give me a Baby. She—she delivered triplets.” He tacked along softly and it was a while before the meaning of his words penetrated their shocked brains. “A what?” Josh Summer finally murmured, unable to believe his ears. “She gave me a boy and two girls. The most beautiful healthy babies I have ever seen in my life. That’s what my Mate gave me.” He enunciated softly, so that there was no confusion about his meaning and almost at once, everyone moved to sit down weakly. Having thought he was going to deliver unwanted news after that statement of no baby, it was a real shock to hear that not only had she given birth to a healthy baby, but babies. “Triplets, oh my God!” Erica murmured in awe, echoing the thought in everyone’s head and Christos finally allowed himself to show a little of what he was feeling. Though he is still dazed, it’s obvious he’s happy and proud of his mate’s latest accompl

    Christos.Just in that moment, they heard movements behind them and they all turned to see the newly married and pregnant Cindy running towards them with her frustrated Mate in pursuit, trying to no avail to stop her from running on the dangerous floor of the hospital and it amused them all to notice that she was barely paying him attention as she almost barged into Josh Summer who was standing almost in her path.“Oops, I am sorry, Dad.” With an embarrassing blush covering her cheeks, she apologised wryly to her best friend’s Dad who sent an amused look towards her protruding belly.“You are not trying to bring that baby to the world yet. Are you, baby girl?” Josh Summer teased with a fond smile at his daughter’s friend who was now a member of his big loving family and Cindy chuckled wryly.“Of course not, Dad. And please, don’t joke like that, it takes little to make Micheal turn green at the edges these days.” She murmured mischievously to the man she now considered to be her fath

    Christos.Wondering if it would be considered bad manners to scuffle in the hospital room even though he’s the master of the whole place, the Alpha allowed himself to take a deep breath while his wolf gave the now silent Gabriel an unbelievable look. ‘Really! Is he so stupid he doesn’t fear for his life right now?’ Lightning murmured to himself as he watched his human companion trying to control his breathing.“You want to join my Mate on the hospital bed. Don’t you? I will not mind breaking your arms right now if that’s what you are asking for.” The Alpha promised tightly, almost with relish and Gabriel gave him an askance look.“You mean despite being tense about the birth of the new pups, you will still have energy to scuffle with me?” He then made a tsk tsk sound as if he couldn’t believe it.With slitted eyes that’s almost closed, Christos gave the annoying idiot a considering look and just when he thought the hell with it and was going to throttle the guy anyways, his Beta quic

    Becca.“Most proper way possible?” I could pick out the confusion in his voice and I smiled inwardly.‘Poor man! If only he knows what plans I have gat for him.’ I mused wryly to myself with another silent chuckle even as I stood to my knees again on the bed.“Yes. My darling slow Alpha, I mean that I need you and Lightning right now. In there, pounding me hot till I scream for your mercy.” I uttered slowly even as I removed the lapels of my robe to reveal my naked body to his gaze.Even before I revealed my boobs with its newly added weight, I could feel the charged atmosphere as Lightning immediately jumped to attention upon hearing my declaration and when I saw the almost unfocused slanted eyes of my beloved mate, I finally allowed my amusement to show.“You want to stare all day or you want to come have this?” I enticed with a little pat at my well rounded endowed ass and I saw him give a visible shiver.“I would really love to stare all day, my Queen, because damn, you are worth

    Christos. I inhaled sharply before looking at her with hooded eyes.“Okay Babes, what do you want us to clarify?”“This thing, this unnecessary burden you are carrying on your shoulders. I admit that you have sexy broad shoulders that seem capable of anything but the last thing you should let them take on is a burden that’s useless.” She intoned almost harshly and not just me, but my wolf also winced along with me.“Useless?” Is that how she sees it? And couldn’t she have phrased that more gently? Why make it seem as if I’m having an unnecessary pity party?“Yes, useless. Don’t get me wrong, I understand your feelings, I sure do. I know it’s possible to feel guilty over the past, because yea, I have been there, done it all but at the end of the day, I sat myself down and I asked myself if it’s worth it. Do I want to keep wallowing in the past, wallowing in guilt or do I want to move forward and be a better version of myself? So I ask you, Christos Fernandez, do you want to continue w

    Christos.“Not me. I was paying attention. Lightning is the one with a wandering mind.” I pushed the blame on my wolf without remorse and he gave an angry bellow before peeping out of my eyes to look at our Mate with soft baby eyes, probably hoping to soften her up that way but she was having none of it.“Don’t try to be cute, Lightning. I am a woman that is after answers and I mean to get it.” She warned softly and I felt my wolf releasing a little sigh of disappointment as he sat to listen. ‘Good! At least he can’t continue to think he is the special baby here, her favourite. No way man, if I suffer, he suffers!’ I muttered to myself with relish and I heard a long hiss that showed he knew what I was thinking. But who cares? As long as he isn’t trying to take my place in my woman’s heart, I am good.“Becca darling, you should relax and stop worrying yourself over nothing, okay?” I tried to pacify the heavily pregnant woman that’s still glaring at me so suspiciously, one would think

    Christos.Just when I felt a stumble and I was certain I might never get out of this dark void that’s consuming my body and soul, I felt a cool touch on my sensitive skin and I jumped as if scalded. “Christos? What’s going on? Why are you suddenly looking as if you just saw a ghost? And why is your body so hot to touch?” Becca’s tone sounded so faint, it’s as if she was speaking from afar and it was with a great effort I pulled myself back from my own self inflicted abyss to focus my gaze on her.Even at that, her face seemed blurry and I can’t find the words to explain how I felt. “Damn it, Christos, you are getting me worried and you are indirectly transmitting this to the baby, I can feel him in here right now kicking up a ruckus and to be frank, I don’t find it funny.” Her voice suddenly called more urgently as she gripped my bulgy arms for a significant shake.If the tone of her voice had not been enough to pull me out of my misery, then the word ‘baby’ instantly did the magic

    Christos.By now, my men and Cindy already joined us with her besotted mate walking closely beside her. I could see the way they kept touching one another slyly and I glanced away from the image it was creating in my head. Turning my head to the other side, I ignored them pointedly.I want no lovey dovey distraction until I sort my pups and can then give my woman my undivided attention. In the privacy of our bedroom, mind you. ‘Hopefully, I can wait to get there before thrusting myself into her welcoming abode.’ I mused wryly to myself and Lightning’s groan gave me a jolt.‘Will you stop it, man? You are creating ideas in my head and that is not fair. Not now, when our mate has something else on her mind at least.’ He rebuked with a childish petulance that got me so amused, I wish I could hoot in laughter.But I curbed the impulse, knowing that that was not the time, not with our parents standing close by, paying attention to every word and gestures.“I am not capping, Ric.
