last update Last Updated: 2025-04-21 19:13:39

Tonia's POV.

This was what I wanted, but now that he had walked away from me, why was my heart hurting so much?

He had decided to respect my decisions like always, but why was I stupidly expecting more?

Why was I expecting him to still try convincing me? Why wasn't I relieved that he had easily let me go like I wanted?

Jayden was right. I was selfish, very selfish.

"I have been hurting him for so long without even realizing it. I'm horrible," I cried and reached for my chest.

My heart was aching horribly in my chest. The pain was now worse than before.

"Ugh,"I groaned.

I bent down and buried my face in my lap. Tears just kept flooding down my face.

I felt even more pathetic than before. Why was I acting like this wasn't the path I had chosen?

Why was I acting like the victim when I had been the one pushing him away? Why was I behaving like he had hurt me when I did this all by myself?

"Tonia," I heard Olivia's voice, but couldn't bring myself to raise my head.

"Hey," She bent down

    Jayden's POV."You have to eat something, you can't continue this way," She said, forcing me to eat. I looked away, "Mom, please stop," I was tired of everything and just wanted to rest. Was that too much to ask? "Jayden, you are not going to heal your pain by starving yourself. Your internal injuries won't heal either!" She snapped, giving me a pained look."You are also sad and your wolf must be suffering because of the departure of your mate. You are making things much worse by not eating."She insisted, taking another scoop of the food to my lips, "I am your mother, and I don't like seeing you this way. Please eat."I would have fallen for the loving look in her eyes and eaten the food, but today was different.I was angry and hurt. I didn't feel like being consoled or comforted by anything, especially not food.My stomach felt tight with anger and my whole mouth felt dry."Mother, no means no," I asserted and threw my face to the side."Are you seriously doing this? Why are yo

    Jayden's POV."Yes, I wanted you to let her go in the beginning, but then I learned how much of a good person she was and watched how she made you happy," He replied warmly and sat on the bed."I know that you are hurt about everything that happened, but you have come this far. I don't think that you should throw it all away," He said with a shrug."I tried to stop her from leaving. I kept telling her to stay with me, but she said that her decision was final and kept behaving like I was stopping her from reaching her goal," I said sadly. "I don't even want to talk about this anymore,please leave." "Jay, you should not give up on her. You have done a lot to be with her, you even went against your scary old man of all people. You also risked your life to protect her. Your love for her is very deep—""But her love for me isn't!" I cut him off. "I'm not even sure that she loves me. She had already told me that she would never reciprocate my feelings...""Love isn't supposed to be a bed

    Jayden's POV.What did he just say? "Sir, I don't think I heard you properly.""I am sure that you heard me perfectly. You should start getting ready to meet the beautiful woman that I have chosen for you," Grandfather smirked. I snapped. "I will pretend that I did not just hear that. Let us forget that we ever had the conversation.""You have truly become rude and ill-mannered. I believe that being away from my tutelage for so long has made you very reckless!" He spat, looking angrily at me. I sat up and looked him straight in the eye. "I am not being rude. I just want you to stop all of this. Why can't you see that I love Antonia very much? Why are you hell-bent on separating us!" I sneered. "Separating you?" He laughed like I had said something funny."This is the second time that you are making that statement, and I am going to correct you again." "You were never in the world or caliber to begin with.

    Jayden's POV. "I am not meeting anyone. You can entertain them youself," I retorted, refusing to be trampled upon."What did you just say?" He scowled, lifting his cane.I snapped. "Sir, I am not a child anymore, and I am no longer that pushover that you kept controlling!""I am not meeting anyone, and I do not approve of any marriage arrangement. I am already committed to someone and that is enough for me," I stood my ground."You stupid child!" He thundered, hitting me with the cane."What is happening here?" Mother entered the room suddenly. "Why are you hitting him?""Your son has grown insolent, disrespectful and disobedient! He no longer has any respect for me!" He snarled."What is the problem? Why are you saying all this?" She asked, looking between us."What did you do?" She looked at me directly."He has refused to meet the family that I have made his marriage alliance with!" He thundered."What marriage alliance? What in the Moon Goddess' name are you talking about?"I tho

    Tonia's POV.Yesterday was very tough for me, but Olivia had stopped pressuring me to leave. I had done my best to stop thinking about Jayden. "I feel bored," I yawned, walking into the sitting room. I looked around the sitting room and there was a small shelf beside the television. I walked over to it and started bringing out some of the books that got my attention. "This looks nice," I smiled a little, gazing at the title of the book. "The title sounds interesting, I think that I will read this," I said and kept the other books back on the shelf. I walked over to the couch and sat. I opened the book and the first name that I saw on the page was 'Jayden' "Seriously? Jayden is the name of the main character??" I rolled my eyes and closed the book. I stood up from the couch and returned the book to the shelf. I tried searching for another one, but there was a character with the name 'Smith'. Smith was Jayden's last name. "Fuck!" I cursed.

It was the final farewell rites for the late Alpha as well as the eve of the official crowning ceremony for my husband, Logan Scott, as the new Alpha of Phoenix Pack.I really couldn't trust the pack maids to do a good job at preparing the meal of my husband's family on such a big day, so I did it myself.Over the years, all my efforts to impress them had always gone unnoticed since they only saw me as the 'wolfless' omega who slithered her way into their prestigious family. However, today I wanted to blow their minds off.At the beeping sound of my phone, I quickly brought down the chicken broth from the stove and went over to the counter to get my phone.It was a message from my best friend, Olivia: [Are you pregnant?] it read and my mind emptied for a split second.

    Tonia's POVI froze, unsure of what exactly she meant by that. Wicked amusement flickered in her eyes and I could immediately tell she wasn't as innocent as she was pretending to be."Well, he's not an object that you can borrow!" I told her flatly. "Feel free to ask him, if you want to spend more time with him!"She didn't miss the ice that laced my words and a frown creased into her face, just before she closed the little space between her and Logan.She stood on her toes, wrapped her arms around his neck and said, "Logan, could I really spend more time with you." She asked so sweetly, slanting a snide smirk at me.Logan didn't even think twice as he said. "Sure, Lisa. Anything for you."I felt as though he literally pulled my heart out, tossed it to the ground, and stomped over it. How could he say that to her right in front of me— his wife? It was just as though I were invisible to him.He hadn't even responded to my greetings.Unable to hold my tears any longer, I raced out of t

    Tonia's POVI needed someone to squeeze at my arm because I couldn't actually assimilate what I had just seen. My legs faltered and I had to grip the door frame for support.Logan noticed me then and an expression of guilt washed over him as he quickly stood up and started towards me.He reached out to touch me but I stepped several inches backwards. With a shuddering breath, I turned sharply to run but his hands grabbed my shoulder and he swiftly pressed me to the wall outside the room and sit the door behind us."I was only consoling her!" He gave the understatement of the year. "Lisa is still traumatized about the rape and all. She started crying and I didn't know what to do."I wasn't even sure anything he was saying was sinking in. My vision had turned blurry with tears but I pushed it back with all the strength left in my body. I couldn't break down now. Not yet!"Kissing your fated mate doesn't mean anything to you, is that what you mean?" I yelled but it only came out as a bro

    Tonia's POV.I didn't know whether to hug him right now or hide in shame. He must have suspected that I was about to run away. How must he be feeling right now?He had a smirk on his pale face, but was I not a traitor in his mind?"Jayden, when did you wake up? Are you alright?" Olivia asked, looking as shocked as I was. "I was a little fine until I realized that my mate was not by my side," Jayden replied with a smile. However, I knew his smile was not genuine. He was hurt. "Oh, I just wanted to take her for a few drinks. I am sorry for taking her away from you, I just wanted to cheer her up," Olivia lied. I didn't want her to become the bad guy because of my decision. I should take responsibility. "She's not saying the truth," I dismissed her words. "I wanted to leave and never return..." "Tonia!" Olivia whisper-yelled and pinched me. I should have not hurt him that way. I should be jumping for joy that he was awake, but there was no need to keep lying. "King Jayden!" "Jay

I will never forget our happy moments," I sobbed. My heart was being ripped apart. "I know you might hate me when you wake up and realize that I am gone, but I just want you to know that I am doing this for your well-being. I hope you understand.""I hope you don't search for me, and respect my decision," I muttered and brought out a folded note from my pocket.Although I had been told that some people could hear things during their coma, I couldn't rely on that.I had written everything I felt inside the note and would give it to Leah when I was ready to leave."I would have put this in your hand, but your grandfather might come to see you and get rid of it. I don't want that," I laughed bitterly.I removed his hand from my face and placed it by his side. I leaned closer to him and held his face.I missed seeing his blue eyes,

Leah yelled, helping me from the floor."You better shut up your stupid mouth! How dare you tell me what is acceptable or not acceptable? stupid child," Jayden's grandfather sneered.His voice was full of so much anger."I told you to let that boy be, but you refused and now your stupid ex-husband has put him in a coma!" He thundered."Grandpa, that is not her fault at all. I am sure that she didn't expect something so horrible to happen. You shouldn't blame her for the mistakes of another person!" "I kept quiet the last time you threatened her, but I won't remain silent again!" Leah fired. "Leah, please..." I didn't want her to get in trouble with her grandfather. "I did not come here for you, you little brat!" He shouted and looked at me. "Jayden would have been hale and healthy if you had accepted my offer at that time and left him alone!" "You
