Riley's povI laughed and looked at him. He was so stupid to think that was just enough to get me to cry. He has done worse to me so what makes him think that I will cry. I wasn't going to cry at all.“Is that the best you can do? Or maybe I can tell your uncle here to fuck me or your father once I cross over to the other side”Zander's eyes darkened, I was hitting a nerve really hard and he knew that. I wanted him to be the one to break me since Laurent was hesitating because of that old man, Silas. I wonder why he thought that he can always bring out the good in people.There was no good in me, the little that was once me, Laurent took it away from me, after Zander robbed me off my happiness and smile. I curse the day that I set my eyes on them. The day that I let the three of us form a special friendship. That cost me my family, and I can never forgive Laurent and his entire family. I will spend the rest of my l hating him, but I wasn't the one who tried to kill him. Although I wi
Riley's Pov“What are you doing here, who are you?”“Is that how you talk to me after I try to save your life? You should be grateful, you know?”“I never asked you to save my life, how the hell are you here?”The last thing I remember was Silas holding me in his arms as we walked out of the dungeon. I thought I would wake up with him still by my side so that I could taunt him even more for releasing me from prison. I wanted to stay there a little bit longer. I needed to stay there so that Laurent could give me the death that I had been waiting for.I was angry that Silas was always getting in the way each time I was this close to death. He pulled me back the last time I jumped into the pool. He hurriedly jumped into the pool as well and dragged me out and as if that wasn't enough he performed CPR. I never wanted it, I only wanted death, nothing else.“My Uncle called me to come over and take care of you, said you are going to need a lot of food when you wake up”“You don't think I am
Zander's POVI was surprised to see her rolling down the stairs. The first thing I wanted to do was jump right into it and save her. But then something made me halt.Staring at my hand, I looked at the locket in my hand. It was from her neck, but that wasn't what caught my attention, it was the fact that the locket was the same locket that I had given her years ago before I left for my mother's Pack. I have no idea she held on to it all this while.“Riley” I yelled out her name and rushed up to her. Suddenly, the entrance door opened, and My Uncle Silas entered the house. Silas knows about my love for her and although he feels that it was becoming rather obsessive. I just don't give a shit about it. I was in love with her. I will do anything for us to be together. His eyes widened as his lips curled up, he must be wondering what I had done to her. It wasn't intentional, I wasn't hoping that I would make her fall down the stairs. If I had realized that earlier, I wouldn't have even st
Zander's POVI was confused and at the same time concerned over what my uncle had just said. Riley had a child . How come I did not know about this? When I left the pack, I entrusted her to my brother to take care of her. He should have said something but he did not do anything. Jason has always been with her but I did not hear anything at all.“What child are you talking about, Riley was not pregnant”“Stupid boy, who told you she wasn't pregnant. How can she not be pregnant when you are always fooling around all the time? If you know that you leave her after getting her pregnant then you shouldn't have started anything in the first place”“I did not know she was pregnant. No one told me anything about it. Riley did not even write to me all the times I was away”Uncle Silas shook his head disappointed at me. Everyone, especially my brother Jason, was acting weird. After I returned from my mother's Pack, he did not speak with me for a long while.It took much pleading for Jason to fi
Riley's PovI glared at him. He was asking me the very same question that I hated to be asked. He was aware that that was a delicate part of my life, one I hated anyone asking me, not even my best friend would dare ask me such a silly question.“Why the hell are you asking me such a stupid question? How dare you ask about my child? How dare you ask about a child who is not related to you?”“That child you're talking about is the daughter of my nephew. I am asking like I should have asked you years ago. That child needs his father as well”“She doesn't have a father, she will never have a father. I will never let him take my child away from me, whatever we had died years ago. He has no right to my child, you have no right to ask me such silly questions”“I have a right to my child” I froze as I heard him say as he stood outside the door. I don't know if this was a trap, and if Silas has done this on purpose just so he can get his nephew to finally figure out that we have a child togeth
Riley's POV “How am I sure she is my daughter when you have already involved Nobert”I squeeze my face in disgust. Somewhere in my heart, I knew telling him was a big mistake yet I wanted to trust my instincts and believe that he would be different or at least would help me find my daughter. If it was because of that, I wouldn't have told him anything at all. I have kept this secret for many years only to be revealed now and it ends up being a colossal waste of time.“What did you just say?”“Zander, watch your words, don't talk nonsense”“Do you think that I'm talking nonsense? I am only telling the truth. I have been back for many months. Why didn't she tell me anything? Why didn't she say so earlier? Why does she have to keep quiet all this while except that the baby isn't mine? Perhaps, she was the one who was cheating on me with Nobert. I have always doubted their friendship”My adrenaline rushed up, I clenched my jaw and tried to suppress the rage that burned through me but cou
Zander's POV“That's none of your business, whatever I have with him should not be of concern to you. You shouldn't ask me such a question, my work is done so don't bother me and don't try to stop me” She was rattling. From the corners of her eyes, I realized that her gaze was cold and murderous. She must be planning to do something stupid. That was the last thing I wanted. I don't want her doing something that will end up getting in trouble. The last time the Alpha only managed to let her go because of my uncle, if it wasn't for him she'd still be in the dungeon. “You're not planning to do anything stupid, are you”“I mean, between the both of us you are the one who always plans to do something stupid, isn't it?”“Why are you always this way, Riley?” He grits his teeth and I roll my eyes.“I am heading home”“What about our daughter? You should at least give me the name of the clinics so that I can go look for her. She's my daughter after all, and I love her even though I haven't m
Riley's POV Jason looked disappointed with what I had just said. Ignoring him, I walked away. Sometimes I wonder what comes over him. It wasn't as if he had been in love with me or something but when it comes to Zander he gets unnecessarily jealous and wants to make me hate him. It was as if they were living a competitive life and I wasn't happy with it. Whenever something happens between them it should be sorted out between them.The two of them were quite close back when Zander was still living with his father before he decided to move out to his mother's Pack. It seemed as if the relationship was strained. Right now it was slowly dying off. Pushing the thought out of my mind, I decided to return back to Alpha Laurent's House. He must be awaiting my arrival. The Thought of going back there and staying with him makes my blood boil but that was the only place I could Live at the moment until I got to pay up for the debt of my parents for trying to take his life. That was the punishm
