The rogue heir’s redemption Chapter forty nine : venomous tactics
Aria’s pov Today is one of the best days of my life . Whoever said ‘spending money you didn’t work for is bad’ need a reality check. At first, I did feel guilty, but Xander deserves it. He didn’t think twice when he was doing things I didn’t like, so he’s paying with his money.I love the way the shopping bags look, and the sound of the machine when the card gets approved, and the fake smiles from the workers when they hand me the card back.I walked out of the fourth store today. At this point, I don’t know what I want. I’m just buying things out of spite for Xander.I can’t imagine what his face looks like when he sees all those debits.I flinch as some of my bags fall to the ground when I feel a hand snake around my waist. But the smell of cedar wood calms me. I turn to see Xander.But not the way I expected him. I thought he would be fuming with smoke coming out of his ears, but no, something that resembles worry spreads across his face. “What the heck, you scared me.” I place
The rogue heir’s redemption Chapter fifty: unexpected turns
Aria’s POV Xander lets out a little laugh, and that makes butterflies in my stomach churn."Do you have it with you?" He inquire."No, but I have the formula," I say with a smile."I'll talk to Lucas; he can help with anything you might need," Xander suggests."I don't think I'll need any help from Lucas," I express. I'm unsure if Xander wants Lucas to assist me with pure intentions, but I don't think I'll need it.I’m okay with sharing cures I’ve formulated, but I’m a gatekeeper when it comes to herbs I’ve formulated myself—unless it’s a cure."You will, sunshine," he smiles."When’s the wedding?"I try to change the topic. I need to know the date to make the poison in time for the wedding. The poison will take a few weeks but will be perfect."In two months," he replies. Great! I smile to myself; that's enough time to perfect it without any hassle."Perfect, I’ll make a list of things I need.""Okay, sunshine. There’s enough space in the healers for you to make whatever without anyo
The rogue heir’s redemption Chapter fifty one: garden talks
Aria's POV"Pass me the watering can, please," I say to Xander, my gaze focused on the hole I’m digging.We were currently planting a small garden in the backyard. The place looked dull, and I was tired of looking at it from my window.So, I told Xander I wanted to plant some herbs I might need in the near future. He was against it at first, but with a little persuasion, he finally gave in and even offered to help me plant.I was using some of the seeds I had with me when I left Moon Waters pack and some other seeds Xander had. He wanted me to plant them at the healers, but I preferred here, so I could take better care of them with an assurance that no one will tamper with them or mistake them for another herb or flower."Here you go," he hands me the watering can."Thank you," I muttered before I began pouring the water into the hole. When the soil was damp enough, I planted each seed carefully, marking them with a nametag.Xander took the opportunity to make small talk, which was su
The rogue heir’s redemption Chapter fifty two: insomniac
Aria's POV"Can you please stop?" I groan.Xander kept trying to kiss me at every chance he got the whole day."Why?" he wraps an arm around my waist, pulling me closer to him."I'm trying to get some sleep, Xander. Please stop this madness already," I groan. Xander is going to drop me off at the healer’s before he leaves for a meeting in a neighboring pack tomorrow.I need to get as much rest as I can because tomorrow is going to be a very busy day for me. I don’t know if they have some of the plants I need for the poison or if I have to look for a new one to substitute it."Dealing with herbs is very tiring, Xander, and I'd appreciate it if you let me sleep tonight. You can start thinking of making those babies later, not now," I whisper, smacking his arm that was slowly making its way under the huge T-shirt I was wearing.Dealing with Xander wasn't easy. I have to muster every ounce of willpower in me to stop myself from giving in. Not just giving in, I might as well get into makin
The rogue heir’s redemption Chapter fifty three: facade of research
Aria’s POV "How do you know Fara?" he raised a brow."Well... she is a friend, one of the only people who've been genuinely nice to me when I stayed at the pack house. you're the infamous daddy she's been telling me about," I chuckle."I guess so," he smiles. Now that I'm looking at it, Fara has the same face as her father; the only difference is her eyes and hair—probably her mother's."Fara is a good kid. She'd always have stories to tell me whenever she came back from school. I miss her cute voice and her stories.""As nice as she is, she can be a pain in the neck sometimes," he laughs."Oh really?" I raise a brow."Knock, knock," Rose says when she walks in.Lucas frowns, "How many times do I have to tell you to knock before coming?""I did; I said knock, knock" she smile innocently. "Well, I don't remember telling you, you couldn't come in." His frown deepen."Oh come on, Lucas, take a break," she rolls her eyes."Are you done getting the lab ready?" Lucas turns to his papers."
The rogue heir’s redemption Chapter fifty four: lips lies and guilt
Aria's POVRose's high-pitched voice filled my ears, and a frown took over my face. I don't know how, but her voice somehow sounded high-pitched—maybe it's because I'm annoyed, or perhaps the pain in my wrist is getting worse."Rose," I force a smile.She rushed to my side, linking arms with my injured arm. It took everything in me to stop myself from wincing. I made a mental note to check my arm when I get to the lab, it’s supposed to heal almost instantly but it’s feels as if i got injured few seconds ago. Maybe it might have something to do with withdrawal or something was stopping me from healing faster. "Where have you been? The alpha has been looking for you." Xander is here? I turn my gaze to the window, but it's already very dark outside. I didn't expect Xander to be back this early; he had to go to two different meetings in two different packs, and maybe he has rounds."Where is he?" I ask as I scan the room for him, but I couldn't find him."He thought you might be in the
The rogue heir’s redemption Chapter fifty five: late night meal
Aria’s POV:I groan when a sharp pain pierce through my stomach, but I'm too sleepy to open my eyes, much less figure out what's wrong. Another sharp pain pierces through my stomach, then another follows, I clench my stomach tightly, hoping it will ease the pain. But it feels as if my stomach is being attacked by sharp arrows striking one after the other.I try turning to the other side, hoping to feel better, but it doesn't seem to work. I attempt to roll again, feeling my body leave the bed, and I crash on the hard floor, landing on my injured wrist.Unable to hold back, I let out a little scream, finally forcing my eyes to open. The bed makes a little sound when Xander stands up from the bed and rushes to my side."Sunshine, are you okay?" He asks, helping me off the floor."I'm good, I just fell off while sleeping," I let out a chuckle."Are you sure?" His eyes narrow on me."I'm perfectly fine," I lied. My stomach was killing me, and my wrist was on another level of stinging."Yo
The rogue heir’s redemption Chapter fifty six: foggy field
Aria's POVI'm currently standing in a foggy field. I turn to see if anyone is close, but no one is. It's more because I can't see anything, but the white fog covers the whole place like smoke.Sounds of giggling from a few feet away make me snap my head in that direction. My sensitive ears pick up the light sound of running kids.I follow the sound of the kids running, but as the sounds get louder, the fog grows thicker and darker.I jerk to a stop when I step on something soft yet hard. The sound of a high-pitched scream fills my ears, and I realize I've stepped on a child's foot. Still not able to see anything, I wave my hand around, trying to find the child's body, but I can't. Their foot disappears from under mine, and I scream, "I'm so sorry, I didn't mean—"Another scream cuts me off.I turn to the direction of the scream, waving my arms in that direction, and I reluctantly feel a child's shoulder. I quickly pull her closer.A pair of golden orbs stare up at me. I place my hand
