Make Way, The Real Alpha Princess Returns!의 모든 챕터: 챕터 21 - 챕터 30

KAIIt's been weeks since I last saw Bella, and I couldn't help the restlessness I've been feeling about all of it. Ralph told me to thread carefully but I honestly couldn't depict the hidden meaning behind it no matter how hard I tried.Her family members, particularly her mother, have been cold to me, making it clear with their actions that they didn't want me around the house. I had no reasons, but I'd be damned if I tried to force my way through doors that were shut in my face.Cora on the other hand was my responsibility and even in Bella's absence I made sure to take care of her mother. I had invited the best cardiologist in the country to treat her and from the reports from the doctor she was showing signs of improvements already.I yearned for her as all my mind could think of was her even as I tried to drown myself in piles of paper work. I had asked her to give me a chance but she never really gave me an answer.Nothing was as unsettling as not being able to even see her for

BELLASatisfaction. The word didn't cut it. What I felt after that confrontation with Layla surpassed contentment. I didn't know I needed to unleash and air out my mind until I did, and now I feel lighter. Happier even. I chuckled to myself as the image of her face scrunched up in a mix of shock and annoyance resurfaced in my mind.She was unnecessarily mean and needed to be taught a proper lesson. I was more than happy to do the honors.As I stepped into the locker room, the familiar scent of antiseptic and fresh laundry enveloped me, instantly calming my mind. I slipped out of my clothes and into a crisp, white scrub, the soft fabric a comforting hug against my skin. I couldn't help but smile as I thought about my patient for the day - Cora.My foster mother's warm, gentle face floated into my mind, and a wave of excitement washed over me. It had been a while since I'd seen her, and I couldn't wait to see her, check up on her progress, and how well she's been doing since we brought

XAVIERThe mere sight of Layla was enough to turn even the brightest day to a dismal one. Irritation coursed through me as I walked through the corridors to my office where she was waiting for me.I rolled my eyes, clicking my tongue in annoyance as I reached for the key card in my pocket to unlock the door. I pushed the door open, walking in first and closing it in her face, not bothering to let her in.Regardless, Layla pushed the door open, the force causing it to hit the wall as I carefully dropped my things on my desk, removing my phone from my pocket first.I glanced at her as she simply stood there, her arms folded across her chest with a stupid look on her face. She looked every bit like the spoiled, overly entitled bitch she was.I sighed.Sometimes, I wished I could hit women.“Couldn't you at least open the door for me?” Layla snarled, her lips curled into a shape that just made her seem more appalling than usual. “I'm your younger sister. Treat me nicely.”I scoffed. “You

BELLA.Don't let her ruin your mood!I internally chided myself and tried to smile when Kai leaned in and pecked me on the cheek. My face burned with heat as I put my head down and smiled shyly. I tried to pacify my racing heart and I pecked him back.“I'll be right back, I just want to get something, yeah?” I nodded as he stood and walked towards the exit door.As I gazed around the Ethiopian restaurant, I took in the vibrant atmosphere. The dim lighting, colourful traditional fabrics and eclectic decor all blended together to create a warm and inviting space. I looked at where Kai left, suddenly annoyed that he left me, then I found her gaze–Layla.My heart sank as she sauntered over, her eyes gleaming with malice. “Well, well, well, look what we have here,” she said, her voice dripping with sarcasm. “Bella! My sister.”I fought the urge to roll my eyes at her petty attempt to put me down. I sighed, taking a few steps towards her.“Layla! What a pleasant surprise to see you. Can I h

BELLAHis lips were back on mine as soon as he locked the door. He picked me up and I wrapped my legs around his waist as he walked towards the bedroom—his bedroom.He fumbled with the door knob, and when we finally got in, he kicked the door close with his leg. He walked towards the bed, dropping me on the soft surface.He took his shirt off, tossing it aside before joining me on the bed, lowering his weight over me but still keeping a little bit of space between us. I could feel the heat radiating off his body, the butterflies in my stomach a fluttering mess.Our gazes locked, our breaths already uneven. His eyes dropped to my lips and he claimed them again.This time, the kiss was passionate, hungry, fiery. I responded immediately, kissing him back with the same fervour. My hands went up to circle his neck, while his found my waist, his thumb brushing lightly on my skin, causing goosebumps to sprout on my arms.He pulled away and began planting kisses on my right ear and trailing t
