Amanda's POVI didn't know what to believe. Maybe he was telling the truth or he was buying more time. But the sincerity in his eyes drew me in.“I promise you, there was nothing between us. We never had any connection, and I don't intend to have anything to do with her in the future” this time, he sounded more convincing.I was confused, I didn't know what to think. This was a weakness for a woman, once we hear sweet words, we just dance to the tune. His words were effective. Even though I thought he was not lying again.“We never crossed paths, really. She was a high-minded person, she was a mean girl. I never want to have anything to do with her, now back then, not now. Please, believe me”“It is true that we later realized that we are mates, but she rejected me before everyone because I'm not of Alpha blood. But my parents found out that she's my mate and insisted I continue to pursue her to make her change her mind, they were only covering her background”“But you could have told
Jackson's POVAny man would feel terrible seeing what belongs to him with another man, and I was not different. Each time I imagined Amanda living or leaving with that Gama, I felt a poke in my heart.There is always regret waiting at the end of every bad decision or a horrible mistake. It was now clear and obvious that Amanda wanted nothing to do with me. I could not get Amanda to come with me, I could not take my pups too. I was devastated. I felt dozens of emotions, regret and pain washed over me. I kept wishing that I had done things differently.I had gone to the human society to look for Amanda to ensure she was safe after my men told me she got away. But I was met with disappointment. Maybe her words were to pay me back, to make me feel horrible, or she was just saying those things out of the remnants of the pain from the past.I now know and feel what rejection looks like. Even though I was devastated and regretted my past actions, I could not help but think that I deserved th
Amanda's POVWe had a restful sleep from the previous night, even Rick looked refreshed after waking up.What Rick told me last night was still on my mind and I was a bit anxious. I could almost decline going with him.Rick cupped my face in his hands lovingly, looking into my eyes.“Honey, you are a beautiful confident woman and I have no doubt that my parents would like you” he comforted.“Are you sure, Rick?”“Yes, honey. I am sure. You even convinced Alpha Thor, so don't you think it won't be difficult with my parents?”“Ok. If you say so” I muttered.“You worry a lot. I'll convince them honey, just relax, okay?”“Ok honey” Everyone deserves to find a person who can be their comfort place. Rick was mine, my own comfort place.“Timothy and Sarah are my kids too. And you know what, honey?”“What is it, huh?”“Since they can hide their scent, no one would know that they are Alpha’s blood. It would be easier to make everyone believe that they are mine. So case settled” sounds smart.“
Rick's POVAfter dropping Amanda and the kids, I ensured that they were alright. She had cried so much, I wanted her to rest, so I made her sleep before heading back to my parents house, hoping to return before she would be awakened. Even so, I dropped a note to let her know where I had gone, so she wouldn't be worried.They made me look stupid in front of Amanda. I promised her things would be alright and that my parents would like her, but we were met with disappointment. More like they embarrassed me before a guest.“Father, you're going too far. You should have had a conversation with me before going all out on Amanda. Do you want to ruin my years of hard work?”I was furious about the fact that my parents were going to ruin my plan. They had no idea what efforts I had to put to coax Amanda. If they ruin a tiny bit of my plans I would never forgive them.“You brought a low life who had another man's child to my house as a wife and you want me to be calm? Was your mother with anoth
Amanda's POVSo many days had gone by, the outburst from the other day had not gone down totally. I was still sad about the fact that Timothy and Sarah were present on that day, they were just kids, I never wanted them to witness such a horrible scene. And the way Gama Daniel was irritated at the sight of my kids was nothing any mother wants to watch. It wasn't their fault that they were born through me.How could he hate innocent kids like that?I didn't want my kids to suffer the same fate as I did. I was not trying to force them down other people's throats, of course, I just wanted them to live a normal life without discrimination.We visited Gama's home again. Before we went there, I was worried, not that I was afraid of the couple, I was just no longer available for that kind of bullying and discrimination. I was already used to kindness and fair treatment in the real human world, I was used to sincere smiles and a warm welcome.Rick had persuaded me not to think too much about i
Amanda's POVReya stood up for me against Judy that day. After realizing my status, she went away with her crew, disappointed.Reya had been helpful, she was always early to get the kids to school and bring them after closing. It was a great relief, I had enough time to focus on business. She was like an angel sent to me.My kids were ready for school and I was ready to go to the store too. Reya arrived to pick them up at school, but I noticed that Timothy was sad about something, it was written all over him.“You're okay baby?” I asked him, adjusting his shirt.“Yes, mum. I'm fine” he responded.I did not want to delay them by asking further questions, I pecked them each and sent them off with Reya.I set out for my store too. It was another work day. Sales have been turning out well so far. I was driving joy from my work too. Although it felt like when I started from the beginning when I was in the real world. But it doesn't matter. The same way I built my brand and myself to the pi
Amanda's POVIn the real human world, there is something called destiny. It is the belief that everything that happens throughout a person's existence has been predestined. If that ideology was true, it must be the reason why my life was the way it was.I was not only born scentless, I was hated in every pack I went to. If I was a wolf with scent, maybe my mate would have recognized me, maybe I would not have to go away, maybe my life would have been a lot easier.But I could not question the blessing of the moon goddess.It just breaks my heart every time my kids had to be humiliated all because they were born through a scentless mother. They were innocent, it was not their fault. How could I make these people understand it?Those were the thoughts traveling around my mind. I felt guilty for causing them trouble as their mother, I was supposed to be their protector, but I was failing.After getting my work bag from the store, we locked up and went back home. I was done for the day, I
Amanda's POVIt is comforting when you truly connect with someone and everything is just well. The same pattern of events keeps reoccurring, everyone being hostile toward me and my kids. In all honesty, it was a heartbroken moment for me as a mother, but Rick never failed to give me strength through his love for me and all of his efforts to protein.He promised to make his parents stop harassing me, and he did fulfill that promise. He had promised to make sure that what happened at the kids school never repeated itself again. I had no reason to doubt him, he was a man of his words. I was at ease knowing that Rick would resolve everything.Rick instructed me to take the day off from the store and rest at home. I complied, I was tired anyway. It was a long boring day. I was home alone doing nothing, Rick had gone to work, and the kids were in school too.The ticktock of the clock finally made it to the school closing hour, then I stood up to prepare something that they could eat when th
