No way left to go

“Please, you can’t do this to me. This is my home. You must have the wrong address.” Tessa sniffled, already on the verge of tears. Her eyes already hurt from the amount of times she had already cried today.

“I already told you ma’am, we have no business with you. We are only acting on the Alpha’s orders. We were instructed to clear out the place today as another person will be moving in this evening.”

“No… no, there has to be some mistake. Black would never do this to me. Look…” she said, holding up the ring on her finger. “Black gave me this ring when he proposed to me a days ago. He and I are getting married… so there’s no way he would do this to me, please tell the other men to take my things back inside. I just need my space right now.”

“Look ma’am, whatever relationship you believe you have with Alpha Black, you’ll need to discuss that with him. We’ll only stop if the Alpha tells us to. Other than that, I’m sorry. Excuse me.”

Tessa stared helplessly as she watched him approach the other men and told them to hurry. She covered her mouth with trembling hands, trying to silence her sobs as she watched more and more of her stuff being carried out of the apartment.

Seeing that there was nothing she could do to stop what was happening. Tessa turned and hurried back to her car. She climbed in, reached for her handbag in the backseat, pulled out her phone and dialed Black.

“Please Black, pick up your phone,” she cried as the phone rang continuously. It eventually went to voicemail and she dialed again but he didn’t pick up.

Wiping her tears with the back of her hand, Tessa started the car engine and drove out of the estate. She seriously had no idea where she was going. She started driving in the direction of the pack but changed her mind, reminding herself that now that she had been banished, the guards would do everything to stop her from entering the pack’s territory.

With tear filled eyes, Tessa made a U-turn and drove to the only direction she could think of. Since she could no longer return to the pack, there was only one place left for her to go—Black’s apartment in Old Meitarie. It was the place he stayed in whenever he needed a break from pack duties. Only a few people knew about it. And she was one of them.

After what felt like forever, she finally pulled up in front of the residence.

She wound down her car window and punched in what she knew to be the passcode but the gates didn’t open. Thinking she might have entered it incorrectly the first time, she carefully keyed in the passcode again. Still, the gates wouldn’t open.

“No… no… please don’t tell me he changed the password already,” Tessa whispered.

Fresh tears welled in her eyes as the realization slowly sank in. She pulled out her phone and dialed Black but this time around her call didn’t go through. She tried again but it was the same thing.

“Oh God…” she had no idea when she started crying. Desperate, she scrolled through her contacts and dialed another number, hoping the head maid in charge of his residence would open the gate for her.

The call had barely started ringing when a sharp knock sounded against her window. She looked up and her phone almost slipped from her hand when she saw who it was. Her heartbeat quickened and she was forced to end the call when another round of knocks came. This time, there were much harsher.

Tessa had no idea whether to call this a miracle or the beginning of something worse. Because omegas weren’t allowed in the Alpha’s mansion, she had never seen Mrs Wesley in person except from the news and magazines. And now she was standing right outside her car.

For a brief second, a thought crossed her mind.

She didn’t know whether to turn and drive out of the estate or open the door and tell Mrs Wesley she was carrying her grandchild.

With shaky hands, Tessa dropped her phone on the passenger seat, wiped her tears with the back of her palm, opened the door and stepped down.

She was hardly standing upright when she felt a hand land across her face.
