And I think that we might start having trouble...
Alessandro: “Well, you did piss her off.” Leonardo said, and I took a deep breath before turning to face my beta who smirked. “You are going to shut the fuck up before I make you.” I said, and he raised his hands in mock surrender. “I was just stating facts.” He said, smirking at me. “Puoi scegliere di accettarli o meno.” You can choose to accept them or not. “Vorrei dirti dove infilarteli, ma ho altre cose di cui preoccuparmi.” I would tell you where to shove them, but I have other things to be concerned about. Leonardo chuckled and I shook my head before turning to look at the kitchen door just as Valerie walked toward us. Her eyes met mine and I raised an eyebrow at the woman before she looked down at her feet. “When do you want us to leave? That is, of course, unless you have decided to change your mind about us leaving.” She said, and I shook my head. “You have to find a more persuasive way to talk, neonata.” Baby girl. I said, looking the woman in the eye. “The car is ou
Valerie: “This is going to be your room.” Daniella said, nodding at the bedroom. I looked at the woman for a second, more or less feeling guilty for what was happening with her. She didn’t deserve to be dealing with this, and yet, here she was, forced to have her mate’s fling in her house. “Daniella, I would like to apologize…” “You can keep your apology to yourself,” she said, stopping me. “It will neither fix or change anything. So, spare yourself the conversation.” “I did not know that he had anyone in his life, and mind you, I wouldn’t have approached him if I were sober to begin with.” I said, and she laughed, shaking her head at me. “Do you really believe that I am supposed to buy that? And even if I did, do you believe that I am going to bother caring?” She asked, glaring at me. “I did not ask you to care, all I am trying to do is explain the situation that happened as it…” “You went to HIS bar of all places.” She said, stopping me. My heart raced against my ribcage and
Alessandro: “What were you doing there?” Daniella asked, shaking her head at me. She crossed her arms over my chest, and I couldn’t help the low growl of annoyance that rumbled from my chest. The fact that she was questioning me was enough to annoy me, especially when she of all people knew not to do so when I chose to do something. “You are not in any place to be questioning what I choose to do or not, Daniella.” I said, giving her my final warning. “I apologize, but when I didn’t do that, you came back to me with a pregnant mate. Ah, yes, I forgot to mention, one that you ‘rejected’ after fucking.” She said, glaring daggers at me. Her heart raced, and she shook her head at me. “I will be sleeping in my old room for a while. It is actually why I actually came.” “You can’t be serious?” I asked, glaring at her, and she nodded. “You have been neglecting your bed for months, and I believe that she is the reason behind it. Therefore, I am going to leave your bed to you and go sleep
Alessio: “I told you, she didn’t die.” I said, looking my father in the eye. He sighed and pinched the bridge of his nose before looking out the window. I didn’t even understand how Vadim believed that it was her, but I knew for fact that it wasn’t her who was in that car. Whoever that girl was, I had to admit that Valerie was stronger than even I thought that she was. “And considering that you confirmed it, why didn’t you confront them with the fact? You chose to actually stay quiet about it.” Dad said, looking at me. I looked out the window and shook my head. Her dying right now would have been easier punishment for the two of them, and that wasn’t something that I wanted. Plus, if she believed that she was going to be having a peaceful life now that she was ‘hiding’ then she was very wrong. “Just like you did,” I stated, and he nodded. “Point taken.” He said, and I shook my head before pulling my phone out of my pocket. Things would have been a lot easier if she just accepted
Valerie: “What’s going on?” I asked, frowning when the door opened, revealing Alessandro. The man stood in front of me, and Leonardo nodded before taking a step past him, walking out of the room. “Does anyone want to tell me what the hell is going on? Because your beta has not been too informative, and asking me to stay quiet and not make a single sound didn’t make things any better.” I said, raising an eyebrow at the Alpha who pinched the bridge of his nose. “Your brother and Alessio were here to pay their respect for me losing the baby.” He said, making my eyes widen in surprise. “Leonardo had to go up to your room to ensure masking your scent, and you know, the last thing that we wanted was for anyone to hear you. Now, imagine masking your scent, and having a werewolf who is waiting to find anything that would lead to you, hear your voice.” “You could have explained that they would be coming to begin with.” I said, looking at the man who shook his head at me. “If I had known,
Alessandro: “You do realize that she has a point, right?” Leonardo asked, raising an eyebrow. The idea of her telling me that she wanted to go somewhere else was something that I didn’t like, but deep down, I knew that she was right. “And what would happen if she chooses to just take the child and leave?” I asked, tapping the desk. “Go with her.” He said, and I raised an eyebrow. “Keep going back and forth to see her and the child. But keep security with her, they would be keeping her safe and you would know her every movement as well as guarantee that she won’t leave.” “And after what you saw her do when the hunters attacked, do you believe that the men are going to be able to stop her?” I asked, shaking my head in question. He ran his finger over the glass of whiskey before nodding. “She has no other option than to submit at this point. She doesn’t have anywhere to go, and if her family or the other hunters find her, she would have a problem. And I don’t even need to mention th
Valerie: I stayed quiet as I sat on the couch in my bedroom, waiting for the Alpha to come to simply tell him that I told him so. It wasn’t about ONLY me this time, it was about the fact that the two of us were having a child, and yet, we couldn’t come to agree on the fact that the child coming when I was supposed to be dead was going to be dangerous for both of us. But no, the Alpha was far too stubborn to believe that, and if Alaric was here, then we were going to be in more trouble than we could count. And I knew for fact that the Lycan did not come alone, nor did he come uninvited. Therefore, I knew very well that something was going on, but whatever that something was, I knew that it was not going to end well if we didn’t start moving according to reason. It was a while before the bedroom door was knocked, and I watched as the man’s gamma approached the door before opening it. I had to admit, I was thankful for his silence, it was one that was needed, though I did wish that I
Alessandro: “Why do you even have a cell in your house? Mind you, when we do it, we are called vulgar and other names that I am far too ashamed to spill out.” Valerie asked, shaking her head in question. “We are called worse names, but we don’t really care much to cause a fuss about them. You know, most of them have been said by those of your kind.” I said, and Valerie smiled, biting her bottom lip to prevent herself from smiling. “You have a beautiful smile by the way, I think that you should try using it a little more often. It was what seduced me in the first place.” She let out a silent laugh before turning to look at the wall on her right. “Thank you for the reminder that I was knocked up by you.” She said, and I smirked. “I think your stomach has something to do with it, but if my words triggered you, then I am sorry.” I said, and she turned to face me. “My, my, the great Alpha Alessandro apologized.” She said, raising an eyebrow. “I do that a lot actually, neonata. I may
