Hi. Sorry for only uploading by now. I was too tired yesterday. Anyways, here is another chapter. I hope you enjoy it.
KEIRA:Before I could answer Alpha Lennox, he was already facing me. His gaze darted to my lips despite the dim something that flashed in his eyes before it was gone.What was that? What does it mean?“What? You cannot think of an alibi or an excuse?” he taunted. Speak, Keira! Why are you allowing yourself to get intimidated by this man, huh? So what if Tate kissed you? It was not you kissing him back. If this bastard was indeed looking, he would see that you punched the beta."Alpha Lennox, have you seen everything?"If he did, how did he do that? I looked around earlier. But never saw him or caught his scent.I did not have a headache from drinking, but I think I will have now.There was no way he was lying to me since he saw Tate kissing me.“Yes.”A lie or not?However, I found myself declaring, “You haven’t.”Alpha Lennox’s eyes narrowed. “I did, Keira.”“If you did, you would know what I did after Tate kissed me. I punched him in the jaw.”What the heck? Why was I explaining to
ALPHA LENNOX:The paintings on the wall rattled after the door slammed shut.Keira was furious.That was the first time I saw her give me the middle finger. She was naturally patient and kind. However, these past few days, I had been angering her.I yanked my hair in frustration.I messed up. Again. I knew it. The words had been uttered and I could no longer take it back. I punched the wall on the window.Fuck.My mind and the beast inside me were telling me to go after her. To ask for forgiveness, but my heart refused to.Zoe.Right.I had already promised someone. Inhale. Exhale.Pull yourself together, Lennox. No one has the right to confuse your emotions. Not Keira. Not anyone else. Why would I go after Keira when I could not even contact my own girlfriend?'You hurt our mate!' the beast roared inside. He growled at me and threw poisonous glares in my direction. 'Go after her, Lennox.''She is your mate. Not mine. I rejected her. So no. I won't run to her.'I have Zoe. She was
KEIRA: Lennox cursed loudly in my mind. 'Stay there. No matter what you do, do not leave Father. The pack doctor is on the way. Stay calm, love…stay calm.'And the line between us went dead. Did Lennox cut the line dead or was it only my imagination? "Alpha John?"Calm?How could someone be calm in a situation like this?I could no longer feel my hands. It was cold and shaking. My heart won't stop beating fast and all I could do was stare at Alpha John. In my mind, Lennox was saying something but I could no longer hear it. He was still there? Until I realized the door burst open. There were lots of people. Saw Lennox stroll towards his father while the pack doctor was doing everything he could to bring Alpha John back to life. Everything happened so fast. The aloha was barking orders while waiting for the pack doctor's next move. Then four people came in and bought a stretcher. Alpha John's heartbeat returned, but no matter how I told myself to move, it would not. "Keira!" Som
KEIRA:Wife.Now Alpha Lennox was treating me as his wife? Why? Hearing the words wife from his mouth made my chest swell. Everything he said will always create a reaction in me. “Lennox. Will you calm down? Tate and you are not enemies. You can stop trying to kill him with his looks.”"This man has been trying to take you away from me," Alpha Lennox muttered in a dangerously low voice. "No one was taking me away from anyone," I responded. "I do not belong to anyone except for myself. You get it both?" My gaze shifted from Alpha Lennox and Tate. I could see that the former was holding himself from hurting his beta.I don't get why Lennox was acting possessively as if we were mates. We were once, but not now. It was either because of his pride or his wolf. Those were one of the most logical explanations I could think of. Not because of jealousy. Not following his alpha’s orders, Tate’s hand snaked around my shoulders. Alpha Lennox hissed."Hands. Off," Alpha Lennox growled.
KEIRA:Mate. Tate will turn me into his mate.It was not impossible. It was possible as long as there was an agreement between the two persons involved. But of course, regardless if the two agreed or not was for the Moon Goddess to decide. She would always have the final say about that matter."Tate," I called him. "Don't say things like that."The beta smiled and brought my hand to his lips. "I am serious, doll. I have never been serious in my entire life."I pulled my hands away and put it at the back. Tate did not know what he was saying. That was the only thing I could think of right now.He would be going to make me his mate? Why? Did he truly like me like what he said? If he continued saying it, then, I would be thinking that he was saying the truth now. But of course, it was not, right?I refused to be treated as someone's charity case. "Beta. Do you understand what you are talking about right now and the repercussions of it?"I let out a shivered sigh. Yeah.The repercus
KEIRA:I chuckled in the end. "You're seriously doing this to me, Malik? You never had any ounce of pity on my peace of mind, did you?" I asked, the bitterness was like a venom in my tongue. Alpha John was hospitalized while Zoe's life was in danger. The fate of what happened to the two was now on my shoulders.What kind of cruel fate was this?What kind of cruelty did I do in my past life to be troubled this great?“Are you not scared of what your sister would become on that pack?”I heard footsteps on the other line. Perhaps Malik went to his window and stared at the full moon in the sky and contemplated on what he would say next. “Zoe is my sister.”“That's the point, Malik. Zoe is your sister and I had no relationship with her.” Only Lennox and Zoe. “Zoe. Father thinks highly of us his children that they are not allowed to commit any mistakes. Between the two of us, Father thinks less of Zoe because he said she is weak.”I beg to disagree.When I first saw Zoe, she excluded tr
KEIRA:I stiffened.Tate and Lennox's voices seemed so down as if they really regretted what they had done here. Nothing was broken so far except my trust in both of them and that was the most valuable thing of all.Did Tate and Lennox think about asking for my forgiveness at the same time? Did they think about it? Or did they plan about it?Their forgiveness moved me a little, shooing away some of my pain.However, they must learn their lessons. 'Doll?''Love?''Doll. I won't do it again. I promise you. I will control myself and be reminded that you don't want me to get hurt because you love me, do you?'A growl echoed at our connection. From Lennox. He said he will promise not to pick a fight with the alpha, but from what he was doing right now, he was not doing it.'Keira loves me. She only loves me.''Emotions and feelings change over time, Alpha Lennox especially if she won't feel anything in return from you. Right, doll?''Is this part two of your brawl?'The two were silent
KEIRA:I tried calling Lennox once again. Tried reaching out to him, but he already blocked me.Just as I was about to tell him, he already knew it from another source. Who? Who told him? Did he have contact with Zoe's pack? My neck throbs. My head hurts. Especially my heart. Everything hurts. A lot.As if sensing I was hurting inside, Alpha John called my name. "Rei." No. It was not my name but of his daughter. He rarely called me Keira. Does not matter anymore as long as he was alive and with us. He can call me whatever name he wants. “Rei?”Inhale. Exhale.Alpha John should never find what his son had been doing for now. Or he would have another heart attack.Forcing a smile, I faced Alpha John again. "Yes, Dad? You call?"His brows furrowed and stared at my face. I shifted my feet from foot to foot. "You look tense. Is there something wrong? Is it my son? I know it. He always gives you a headache. On his behalf, I wanted to apologize. I am waiting for the day he will be res
