Rexton's POV.
"Y--you got it too?!"
Beta Luke nodded his head so easily. "Y--yes, Alpha Rexton." He reached into his pocket. "Look at this."
I complied and received the smartphone from Beta Luke. Previously, my eyes had looked at him for a few moments before I finally looked at the smartphone. On the smartphone I found the same photo as the one I got, even the foreign number who sent it was the same. My forehead furrowed, I was curious about who was actually behind this strange number.
How come the foreign phone number knows my cell phone number, Beta Luke and even Mr. Anderson? Is it possible that they didn't just send the photos to me and people related to me too? What if the photo gets spread? What if this photo gets spread? There are many questions present in my mind and they are very disturbing.
"Find out about it." I said as I returned the smartphone to Beta Luke who was the owner. "We're going back to the castle now."
"Okay, Alpha Rexton."
The car drove slowly away from the meeting building. My eyes looked out from behind the car window. Is this the end of my relationship with Matilda? Will it end this badly? I took a rough breath.
Nearly seven years of our relationship and five years of marriage have not made the love between us grow, in fact I feel that every day that love is shrinking. Over the past five years, we haven't done much together. Matilda busied herself with her duties as Luna, which I thought was good and a form of responsibility, without me realizing that it was also a form of straining the relationship between us.
In the five years we've lived, there's nothing that really makes me feel happy or lucky to be able to marry her. Not only is she busy with her duties as Luna, but I am also busy carrying out my duties as Alpha and owner of a company. Even what Annette and Lennon wanted did not come true, instead they got their dreams from Amelie.
"Have you ordered the wolves to track Gloria's whereabouts?" I asked, suddenly I remembered my son.
"Yeah, but they haven't given me any information yet."
"Hurry up the search, Beta Luke. I want to find him quickly and save him from Gloria."
Beta Luke nodded his head. "Okay, Alpha Rexton."
The car drove along a road that was not too busy. While Beta Luke focused on driving, I focused on continuing the work that had been postponed. Until it didn't feel like the car was finally back in the castle area. Beta Luke got off first, he then opened the car door for me.
My two feet immediately headed towards the room. I saw Matilda's car in the garage, most likely she was in her room. I felt like I couldn't wait to meet her, not because I missed her but because I wanted to hear the explanation directly from her mouth.
My hand grabbed the door handle and opened it immediately. I saw Matilda sitting on the side of the bed and seemed to have cleaned herself and changed clothes. She smiled at my presence and got up from her seat. I closed the bedroom door, at the same time, Matilda also walked closer to me. Her hand was about to touch me, but I immediately rejected her touch.
"Don't try to touch me, Matilda."
Matilda's smile suddenly disappeared. "What's wrong with you, Babe?"
"Have you still not realized it yet?" Instead of answering her question, I asked again.
"Realize what you mean, Babe?" Matilda's forehead frowned, she tried to touch me again but I still continued to refuse her.
"I told you not to touch me, Matilda!" My voice rose slightly. My hand reached into my pocket and took the smartphone from inside. "Here, what is the meaning of this photo?"
Suddenly Matilda's expression suddenly became worried. She tried to grab my smartphone which I then raised high so she couldn't take it. Several times Matilda still kept trying, she stood on tiptoe and occasionally jumped to get my smartphone. Her much shorter body still makes it difficult to pick up the smartphone, but that's better.
I knew that if she managed to take my smartphone, she would probably pretend she accidentally deleted it. Even though I had also sent the photo to Beta Luke and she had also been sent it by the foreign number herself, it was better if I didn't have to give it. My other hand stopped Matilda's body from jumping and trying to reach my smartphone.
"What is the meaning of this photo, Matilda? Tell me!"
"I haven't seen it clearly, Rexton. Put the smartphone down so I can see more."
"I don't think you need to see it clearly for a long time because you definitely recognize this. Just say it, Matilda."
"No." Matilda shook her head. "Why can you easily believe that photo? What if the photo is edited?"
"I don't think this is an edit, after all like the one you wore this morning, in this photo you are wearing the same dress. Isn't this man Levin? Tell me if you still love him, Matilda."
Matilda shook her head. "This is a misunderstanding, Rexton. Is it that easy for you to believe a photo without finding out what really happened first?"
"Everything is clear, the two of you are in the back of the car. Your position with him is also quite close and intimate. What are you two doing there in a position like this? It's impossible for you two to chat at this close distance."
"Just chatting." Matilda nodded her head very confidently. "There's nothing else besides that, that position really happened and that's because Levin pulled me behind the car. You only saw one photo, Rexton, you didn't see how and what happened next when I was there with Levin."
"What actually happened after this photo?"
"Nothing else but chatting."
"What are you talking about?"
Matilda was silent for a few moments. She seemed to be looking for a good reason to answer my question and I gave her time. "We talk about random things."
Hearing this, I chuckled. "There's no need to lie to my face, Matilda. I can see through your lies easily."
"You don't need to lie to me either, I know that you still can't let go of Amelie completely. Just like you, I also can't just walk away from my mate."
My eyes opened wider than usual. For a few moments I was silent before finally saying, "Mate?!"
Rexton's POV. I really didn't expect that Matilda and Levin were mates. Realizing this, it was as if Matilda was pushing me backwards and further away from her. Matilda was still standing in the same place. She looked at me intently. What she said just now was not wrong. I still often think about Amelie and even regret rejecting her. Can Matilda see my attitude clearly? I never realized it. "Yeah, Levin and I are mates." Matilda said after a moment, reassuring me. "S--since when did you know?" "Since the first time I met him after not seeing each other for several years." Matilda answered without hesitation. "I met him at the bus stop when I was going to work." "Why ... why didn't you tell me, Matilda?" Matilda sighed. "Didn't you also tell me that you were mates with Amelie?" Instead of answering, she just threw the question back at me. I was silent at Matilda's question. We were both wrong. If only Matilda had said that she was mate with Levin from the start, maybe I would
Griffin's POV. I don't know how long I've been in this basement. About an hour ago Gloria delivered food which only consisted of one biscuit and a glass of water. I still felt hungry if I only ate that, but Gloria didn't give me any more, she actually threatened me by not giving me any more to eat if I asked for more. This left me with no other choice but to nod and endure my hunger. Besides, this was also my fault for not obeying what she said. My eyes looked forward, to the basement walls which were not neat and were still in the form of dirt. It looks like this basement has never been repaired and continues to be like this or this is a newly built basement, I don't know. Tired of sitting, I lay down. I could only curl up and cry, missing my mother who never came to save me. The sound of the door lock opening again was heard, I saw Gloria descending the stairs while covering her nose. The basement is really dirty and smelly, it's because of my poop. My chained feet meant I could
Amelie's POV. Hearing the good news, I immediately ran to the hotel and woke my friend up. I can't wait to see Griffin again soon, I hope he can be rescued easily and is in good condition. "Hailey ... Hailey, wake up. We have to go to the castle now. Alpha Rexton is going to attack where Gloria is tonight. He said we have to wait for his arrival at the castle." "Attack? Tonight? Are you serious, Amelie? You're not dreaming, are you?" I shook my head quickly. "No, I just met Alpha Rexton earlier. Get up, I'll call Andrew and Ben." "Where--where did you meet Alpha Rexton earlier, Amelie?" Hailey still doesn't seem to believe it. Meanwhile I left the hotel room and went to the next room to call Andrew and Ben. I didn't have time to answer his question. My two feet walked quickly. I don't know how many times I pressed the bell until Ben finally opened the door with his pillow face. Just like Hailey, he also looked like he didn't believe it, but I still convinced him. Now the four
Amelie's POV "Eh, are those two your lovers?" I accidentally saw two photos of different men on Matilda's smartphone -- my adopted sister. Both photos were taken in almost the same pose, Matilda was standing with the man on her left, they were smiling and looking very happy. "Put down my smartphone, Amelie. You've invaded other people's privacy!" "I envy you, you can get one or two men with just the blink of an eye. Sigh, won't you share one of these two men with me?" "Amelie, didn't you hear what I said earlier?!" Amelie Chyntia is the name my adoptive family gave me, I never knew my real name and family. Mother said, in the winter of twenty one years ago, there was a knock on the door of this house and I was already in a baby basket complete with clothes and a torn piece of paper. Even though I wasn't born into this family, I still consider them family, especially my mother who has taken care of me until I grow up. "Don't open my smartphone without permission, Amelie, everyo
Amelie's POV. My body is now on a king size carved bed with a soft and plush surface. Meanwhile in front of my face, a very attractive broad chest always managed to hypnotize my mind. He moved intensely, creating pleasure down there, making his mind wander even more. I can't pretend anymore in front of him. As I said before, he is sexy and hot. "Don't stop this." Without realizing it, my mouth said that. I can't think anymore, all I want now is that this time doesn't pass quickly. His body was full of sweat, and so was I. We were breathing hard, but neither he nor I wanted to stop. This feeling is too dear to stop. Before everything blows over, I want to enjoy every second of it. "You are beautiful, sexy and hot. What is your name?" "Wouldn't it be better if we didn't know each other's names." "Why?" He gasped. "Wouldn't it be better to know?" I shook my head. "Better not." It's true what Gwendolyn said, this feels strange, like it's not real but it's happening clearly insid
Rexton's POV. Tomorrow my girlfriend will take me to meet her family, of course I feel very happy because finally I can taste the sweetness of love. Moreover, my girlfriend, Matilda, is very beautiful, kind and most importantly intelligent because I really need her to help me with everything. I, who was sitting on one of the sofas in the bar, was stunned when I saw a woman from a group of three other women. Her dress was soft pink, as were the heels she was wearing. It looks like they are playing a game. The woman stood up, then walked towards me. The closer she got, I smelled vanilla with a strong combination of wood. She drew closer to me and the fragrance became clearer. "Mate!" "H--hi." She said, I could feel that she was very awkward. Maybe she is not used to approaching men. "Can I sit here." I smiled, it seemed like she didn't realize that we were mates. "Sure." I said, then shifted a little so that there was a place for her to sit comfortably. "Thank you." She said, th
Rexton's POV. Waking up in bed with black sheets, I felt like I didn't sleep well last night. I took a deep breath, then exhaled heavily. After cleaning myself I went down to the dining room. On the table there was some food and also a glass filled with milk. Not only that, my father and mother were also there. "Good morning, Dad and Mum." I said, smiling. "Good morning, my son. Have you not had enough sleep these past few days?" asked Annette -- my mother. I smiled in response to her question. "It's obvious that you're not getting enough sleep, look at those puffy bags under your eyes." Lennon said -- my father added. "Didn't I give you eye cream to keep your face looking handsome and fresh?" Annette said. "I've been forgetting to wear them lately, Mum." "Tonight and so on, don't forget again, Rexton." I nodded my head. "Oh, how is your relationship with Matilda?" asked Lennon. "That's fine." I said. "We already have plans to get married next month." "That's good, I'm a
Amelie's POV. The bright blue sky can be seen from inside my work room. I've finished all the work today and in five minutes it will be time to go home. I've made plans about what I'm going to do when I get home. Of course, I will immediately clean myself, prepare snacks and start watching my favorite drama that I haven't finished watching since yesterday. "Are you finished with your work?" I nodded, then smiled proudly. Meanwhile, at the next work desk, Chasne was still busy with work that had not been completely finished. Her ten fingers danced on the keyboard with her bright brown eyes focused on the monitor screen. Several times she looked at the clock on the wall to make sure it wasn't time to leave work yet. It was clear that she was in a hurry, she didn't want to leave any work to be done tomorrow or maybe today was the deadline. "Huh, finally." She said as she lifted both hands from the object containing letters and numbers. "You managed to finish it?" I asked, taking
