"Our child?" she asked in disbelief. Is this man crazy? Who does he think he is to call her and her husband baby his child? Because he has the wealth and power to do everything he is now trying to claim her baby, right?
"Edward is my most loyal staff. His child is also my child." he said, covering up for what he said.Bethany smirked. The man is crazy. He is really crazy. "How dare you? How dare you, you bastard?" she raised her voice at him. Jordan frowned when she called him a bastard. "A loyal staff? You called him a loyal staff but you tried to kill my husband?" she asked, yelling this time. "My child isn't yours. My husband isn't your puppet, get that into your brain."The lights and windows shattered. Bethany screamed out loud and covered her ears because of the sounds, coming from the window glasses and light lamps.Her eyes were shut. Jordan remained calm. He used his alpha powers to cause the windows to break. She dares tell him that his child isn't his? That is his child. His son and his hope for the continuation of his rule. His child is the child of the prophecy that needs to be protected at all cost.The woman doesn't know that the child is his and not her husband's. He is getting worked up for nothing. He shouldn't allow his emotions get the better of him. He closed his eyes and tried to calm himself down. He took in a deep breath.When he closed his eyes, Bethany opened hers and swallowed hard in fear. The man before her look so scary, that she felt her legs going weak. He looked like a dangerous devil that moment. She wanted out. She just wanted to run away.The windows in the office were all broken.Jordan oped his eyes and met her gaze. Fear and terror filled her eyes. She was pleading to let go of her. He loved that look. She should be scared of him. He is the most feared alpha and he loves inflicting fear in the heart of everyone.He smirked and moved away, letting her to fall to the ground as her legs were too weak and gave up quickly. "Do not forget who I am. I am Jordan Power. The boss of this place and this town. No one dares mess with me or yells at me. You are nothing but an ordinary woman whose husband works for me. I can do whatever I want and need no one like you to talk down on me."No one has ever talked down on him but her. He fumed in anger but did nothing. He has a rule as that is never to touch a woman and child. Scaring her will be her punishment.Bethany swallowed hard and gripped her cloth tight. Was he going to hurt her? She thought.He went on, "I think you still need more pain from your husband. I will stripe him off his position and every benefits that comes with it. Then, the mayor will have to deal with him as an abusive husband and you as a neglective mother, for leaving your child all alone just to come here and raise your voice at me."Bethany eyes widened when he said that. He was threatening her? What did she do?"What would happen then? Your baby will be all alone and then, I will make him my child. You will only die of heartbreak and pain of losing your child. Your life will be a mess and you will regret living. How fun would that be?""You are heartless. You are evil. Don't you dare drag my child into this. I only want to see my husband and nothing more. Just let go of me, please." she cried but he wasn't moved by her tears. He wasn't bothered about how she feels but was amused by the tears flowing down her cheeks."Didn't anyone tell you never to mess with me? Never to mess with Jordan Powers, the man with the upper hand in this town?" he asked.She knelt down and placed her palms together. "Please, I never meant to raise my voice at you. I was only bothered when I saw the situation of my husband. Please forgive me." she pleaded.Jordan shook his head in disappointment. She should be happy that the man who always beat her up is been taken away. She should be happy she will have enough time to take care of the baby, his baby, and not bother about anything.Arresting her husband was one thing, but losing her child to the man who just looked like a monster minutes ago, was another thing she can't imagine. She would die if that happens. She can't allow herself to get away from her baby even for a moment.Jordan was even more amused. The lady who was trying to show off how strong headed she can be, was kneeling before him. How funny is that? He was enjoying the scene. He have never enjoyed something so interesting except the moments when he watched as some rebellious wolves were killed before him at his command.He wanted more of the drama and was ready to get it. He planned on making it even more interesting."Forgive you? I never forgive anymore." he said. He brought out his phone and dialled the number of the mayor, who picked up the call immediately. He wouldn't want to get the Alpha angry. "Mayor....."Bethany got hold of his leg and grip him tight. "Please. You said it yourself that he is a loyal staff of yours. Please, forgive me and do not call the police on him and my child, you said he is also your child too. Please I beg of you. Do not take my child away. I will really die and my soul will never rest in peace. I will do anything you want."Among the werewolves, he is an immortal. An incident which he hates to remember happened to him and that led to him becoming immortal and the curse on the werewolves coming into place. Everyone knows that he is an immortal. But no one knows he is the curse of the werewolves.But, the prophecy. The prophecy said that. 'A child born of him will end the curse.' The child will end him. This is a secret no one knows.That child is his son.He knelt down to be at eye level with her, then raised her face so she could look him in the eyes."Anything?"She averted her gaze, but still nodded, tears flowing down her eyes.He smirked. He is about to make it even more fun now. "Then strip before me." he said in a whisper, sending cold shivers through her body."Wh..what?"The elders began to mutter among themselves in shock and confusion of what Jordan said. The child was obviously a human child so how was he Jordan's child?Damon who was also confused, leaned closer and whispered to his ears, "What are you doing Jordan? Don't you think this is risky especially when we are in this situation?" He demanded to know but got ignored by Jordan."Your child? That mean our lord slept with a human?" Julia questioned with her gaze lowered, not daring to look up at the piercing gaze of the alpha.Jordan smirked and leaned back. "Does he have to be my child only when I sleep with his mother?" There was no way he was going to tell them the real truth, for the sake of Sebby and Bethany's safety."Does that mean he is adopted?" she dared to ask again."You can believe whatever you want to but now," he leaned forward, resting his elbows on the hard Cedar table and his chin resting on his crossed fingers. "A warning need to be sent to whosoever is involved with his kid
Bethany walked to them and faced Jordan who wasn't saying anything. He never expected her to be behind him and wondered how much she heard."Is Laura behind this?" She questioned again."How much did you hear Bethany?"She shook her head, "That's not my question. I asked if my son is with Laura.""I told you to stay inside. You shouldn't be out here.""It involves my son so why shouldn't I be here?" She cried. "I just need to know what is going on. I have being kept in the dark and it is killing me. Is my son being fed? How is he doing? Is he sick? Is he crying? Is he still alive? It is killing me." She bent down, crying loudly.Jordan exhaled and knelt before her, drawing her closer to him and made her head rest on his chest. "I will find Sebby, I promise you. I wouldn't let anything happen to him." He comforted. 'Who ever is involved would surely wish they never existed when I am done with them,' he thought, patting her back gently.He took his gaze to Damon who understood his signa
Jordan lifted a brow, not taking his gaze off her. Go with him? There was no way she was going to see Damon.Not minding the look he was giving her, Bethany climbed down the bed and quickly wore her flip flop."You don't have to come with me. Who I need to see is not someone you should see and it is important."She shook her head, "I don't care. I need to find my son and if you are going to meet him concerning Sebby, then I have to be there.""Trust me Bethany, I will find Sebby. You should wait here for a while."She shook her head, "He is my son and I must do all I can to find him."Jordan rubbed his forehead and exhaled deeply. "Listen, you can't meet him cause he is dangerous. It wouldn't be good for you. Just listen to me.""Why should I?!" she yelled out breathing heavily. "If we had just stayed at home then Sebby would still be with us. If you haven't left, then he wouldn't have been taken away!" she cried and sat back on the bed. "I couldn't protect my son and now I want to. I
Few minutes ago (When Jordan left)He walked out of the restaurant and held the wrist of a girl standing by the door, going to the side where no one was passing through.He let go of her, to which she lost her balance but was able to control herself from falling."What are you doing here Laura?"he questioned with a scowl on his face. "Easy there Alpha king. Is that how to treat your fiance?" she questioned with a smug smile plastered on her beautiful face. She walked closer and shamelessly placed her hand on his cheek. "How have you been baby? I know you miss me so much so I am here for you now." Jordan rolled his fist into a ball, not wanting to harm or touch her. She was really a pain in his neck and he wasn't ready for it. All he wanted was to send her away and go back to have fun with Bethany and his son."Don't you dare come anywhere this city again. You should go back. I am only going to spare you just this once." he instructed and turned to leave but her next question stoppe
Bethany and Jordan walked into the restaurant. She was astonished by the decors. There was a big pond in the middle of the restaurant and instead of chairs, they had beautiful flurry mats on the floor with glass table in the middle.It was like a traditional restaurant with a little modernization."Welcome Mr Powers. I will lead you to your seat," a staff said, dressed in a black button shirt and a grey trouser, having an apron draped around her waist."They know you?" Bethany asked in a whisper as they followed behind the staff."I made a reservation already," he answered and they stopped by their table. Getting seated, five waiters walked to the table each holding a tray of food.They dropped it on the table. "We are at your service sir if you need anything."Jordan waved his hand and they walked away immediately. They all knew who he was. The son of the Powers and the heir to the family's wealth.The restaurant was affiliated with their company. Even though Jordan was handsome and
"Well sir, we were just talking about....." she swallowed hard not able to complete her words. She lowered her eyes, trying to avoid his gaze.Bethany sighed deeply and walked forward. "Well, we were talking about Sara's daughter. Her daughter is here in California but she wouldn't be able to see her cause of my son."Sara's heart skipped a beat, knowing her boss would definitely get angry with her for thinking about leaving Sebastian and Bethany.Bethany went on, "She misses her daughter. She is a mother too. Can I request that she is given a day off? I will take care of Sebastian myself. You don't have to worry about us." She prayed silently he would agree.Sara heart beat accelerated with Jordan's gaze on her. He wasn't saying anything neither was he showing he was angry on not.She was left on an egg shell.Jordan let out a sigh and replied, "I had a little plan but it's not compulsory. I understand you have to see your daughter. It is very important. Alright then, you can leave f
