All Chapters of Blood Ties And Betrayal: The rogues redemption : Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Ember What is this man talking about, does he seriously think Rowan was the father of Kai? I should be relieved that he hadn't found out the boy was his, however, I still felt a pang in my chest, at the very least shouldn't he have thought of the possibility that Kai might be his? What am I thinking about? Why do I want him to care anyway? When I'm definitely nothing in his eyes other than that one night stand, and I'd like it to remain like that, less I risk my son being taken away from me. I turned to look at him, “You're talking about that man right? If yes? He isn't the father of my child, can I go now?” I'm certain that he's talking about Rowan, so I cut to the chase immediately. It would've been easier to declare Rowan as Kai's father, but I'm never doing that. “Not yet, would you at least say where he is? I mean how irresponsible of him, his son was out sick in the hospital and he didn't even show his face!” “He wasn't here because he enlisted in Alpha training.” I

Maverick. I stepped out of the car and walked to the entrance of the company before me. Alex followed closely behind me with some documents he brought with him. “She slept in your home” I heard his voice behind me, as he walked faster, trying to catch my pace. “Yes, you got anything with that?” “No… it's just that, even though you were all over her, I just think it'll go away in a fickle time as always, but I've never seen you bring a woman to your home, well except Alexan…” I halted, my mind slamming on the brakes. turning to look at him. Realization dawning on him, the words died on his lips, and I knew he regretted bringing that up, he knew well not to mention her, although he almost did, but yet…“ Know the choices of your words,” I bellowed angrily. “Alright, Mr Nightshade.” he nodded hastily, as I turned and started walking away. The moment I stepped into the office, the room fell silent, and the receptionist's gaze snapped up from her computer screen. “Boss–” sh

MaverickI left the office later in the afternoon, I knew Ember must already be at the estate, so I drove there directly. I had Alex stay at the company to look after some minor deals.As I arrived, I parked my car and stepped out, before heading towards the estate.“Good afternoon, Mr Nightshade” the workers greeted.I hummed, not interested in replying to them, but It was then that I heard a tiny voice exclaim from the other side of the room. “I know you.”My eyes turned in his direction. He was wearing a black trousers and a blue Mickey mouse shirt. He sat comfortably on the red sofa with his legs crossed together, I couldn't help but notice his amber eyes were much deeper now.I found myself going to his side, “Why are you sitting here alone and where is your mommy?” I asked him first, looking around.“Mommy asked me to wait here for her, she said she's not going to take a lot of time.” he said, fiddling with his shirt.I nodded at his response, looking at his occasionally poutin

Ember I stiffened as I felt the man come closer, even though every bones in my body was tensed up, on an alert to run anytime, to escape from the man coming closer, but I decided not to run. “I won't hurt you. Don't be afraid of me bunny.” he said coming to my side and brushing my hair from my face. Some of the people from the research institute were crawling away while most got into the vans driving away from the estate. "Thank you." I said to him. He nods, turning back to go inside the estate. I walked in after him and sat down on the red sofa, feeling my nerves calming down. My mind was preoccupied, the worries settled in, I exhaled thinking I should go back to the hotel, so I stood up with Kai and grabbed my bag. “Good bye guys, see you all tomorrow.” I greeted the workers, actually I wasn't very sure about seeing them tomorrow. “Good day.” They replied, while some nodded their heads. “Let's get back to the hotel baby.” I said in Kai's ear, smoothing out his shir

Ember “I don't use the kitchen.” He leisurely answered my unasked question, leaning against the door. It was pretty obvious now that he didn't use the kitchen, but how long has he been living here despite having all these kitchen appliances and utensils, to never use them. And does he really live on those canned foods? How could… I dusted my hands and pointed to the freezer, “You only eat those?” “Yeah.” He simply replied, and from his curt tone, I understood he didn't want to talk about it, and I'm going to respect that. He walked away afterwards leaving me standing inside the kitchen, there was nothing like biscuits or anything Kai could eat tonight. I was yet to come up with what I'm going to make for him when I heard his footsteps coming towards the kitchen again. He was wearing black sweatshirt right now and a pair of gray male jo
