Hiding the Alpha's Twins 27~ Better Impression
~Avery~ The morning sunlight spilled over the breakfast table, nestled in a courtyard surrounded by vibrant flowers. I savoured the crisp autumn breeze that danced around us, loving the serene atmosphere. I had come out and been escorted to this place exactly at 7:30 a.m., not wanting to meet King on arrival. I wanted to be seated when he came, and I achieved that feat. As soon as the King of Kram joined me, my eyes caught sight of him emerging from the direction of our suites, with Regina clinging to his arm as if her very existence depended on it. I quickly averted my gaze and willed my heart to return to normal. When had Regina arrived? If I had allowed myself to fall for King's temptation last night, how would I face this morning, seeing him at breakfast with her by his side? "I trust you had a good night's rest, Mrs. Bells?" King Omar inquired once he settled into his seat. A smile adorned my lips as a servant poured coffee into my mug. "I did, Your Majesty. My nig
Hiding the Alpha's Twins 28~ Making up
~Avery~ "Let me make sure I understand this. You allowed him to make out with you, and after getting rock-hard, you kicked him out of your room?" Jane stifled a laugh beside me as we rode back to my place in the car. We had just left the hospital where we checked on Julian, and now we were recounting the whole ordeal in Kram. Mom insisted I go home, freshen up, and rest while she stayed with the twins at the hospital.I grimaced. Hearing it out loud was worse than it was in my mind. "I didn't know what else to do," I defended. "He has a fiancée. What does that make me if I went ahead to sleep with him?" I had left Kram earlier than planned, relieved that we closed the deal, but I couldn't bear being in the same space with Regina and King anymore. I hadn't spoken to him since the incident with Regina. Soon, King wouldn't need me in Silverpine, and I wouldn't have to tell him about Julian and Julia. I was already counting down the days until I could leave. "What would have happened
Hiding the Alpha's Twins 29~ Meeting Julia
~King~ My eyes fluttered open, and I sucked in a deep breath almost as if the dream I just had was real, my gaze meeting the harsh glow of the hospital room’s overhead light, nearly blinding me. I squeezed my eyes shut trying to shake off the remnants of the dream where I struggled underwater, fighting to stay afloat and catch my breath."Ah, you're awake," Kristopher's voice said beside me.I turned my head to find him nestled on the only velvet couch in the room. His left hand was still in a cast, but he looked fine. The last thing I remembered was coming back from Avery's place, feeling drained, and then the sudden struggle for air. I had had an asthma attack. It's been ages since I ever had an attack because I was always cautious of my health. I wasn't entirely surprised that this happened because it would have been a miracle if it didn't happen after all that smoking out of frustration.When I heard Regina's self-confession about setting Avery up five years ago and threateni
Hiding the Alpha's Twins 30~ The Truth
~Avery~ "Ava, it's hard to believe I'm saying this, but if you're feeling this way, you have to talk to him. He deserves to know about the twins, especially now that he knows the real reason you left. We can't keep pretending they are mine. Even the blind could see the resemblance. How long do you plan to take them out in disguise?" Jane asked as she deftly poured the batter into the cupcake moulds. I sighed, feeling the tension knotting my temples. "He is going to hate me," I muttered, bracing for the coming headache. The past week had been a whirlwind of chaos at work, having to go to the hospital every day from work. And King had grown cold towards me. There was this palpable chill lingering in the air between us. It felt like he was watching my every move, because each time I looked up, he was watching me silently. He spoke to me only when necessary and never even brought up any talk about us anymore. Most of the time, he looked almost... furious, and I couldn't hel
Hiding the Alpha's Twins 31~ The Ride Back Home
~Avery~ In just a few minutes, I had managed to persuade my mother about King and me resolving our differences, even though her sceptical expression suggested she wasn't fully convinced. Despite this, I couldn't let King create a scene in front of the children or act out in anger. His temper was already flaring, and I decided it was best I kept my own anger at bay, at least until I knew he was thinking straight. I lied to my mom and Jane that the kids and I needed to spend only a week at King's place. Hopefully, by then I would be able to make King see reason. Jane had asked me to tell her the truth if I were under any coercion by King, but I couldn't risk him harming anyone just because he was angry. My mother and Jane assisted in gathering our few belongings, while Divah cheerfully carried them out to my car. Meanwhile, King had parked his vehicle prominently at the front of the house and was leaning against it, arms crossed, exuding a mix of impatience and expectancy. His dem
Hiding the Alpha's Twins 32~ The Ride Back Home 2
~King~ It was quite fascinating to see them, and what's more amusing and amazing was that I was enjoying every word with them. Their endless questions made me smile, and surprisingly, I enjoyed answering each one. These moments with them were golden, filling me with a warmth I hadn't known I was missing. My pups. Goddess, I never imagined that I would say those words, they felt alien but incredibly right as I thought them. I was still grappling with the reality of it all. How the fuck could Avery hide something like this from me? Did she hate me that much? Although the thought of fatherhood had never crossed my mind before, now that I knew of Julian and Julia's existence, there was nothing in this world I wanted more. And nothing was going to stop me from raising my twins. With or without Avery. I was so furious that I couldn't even speak to her, although I knew she wouldn't answer any of my questions. She had refused to even look at me, which infuriated me even more. She had
Hiding the Alpha's Twins 1~ The Judgement
~Avery~ I knelt at the centre of the grand hall, surrounded by the esteemed members of the Silverpine pack. My gaze remained fixed on the ground, avoiding eye contact with anyone. Deep down, I yearned to meet King's eyes, for I believed he was the only one who would believe me, but they had kept me from him since last night. In this pack, they despised me, and no one would entertain the notion of my innocence, even if I pleaded otherwise. Beta Kristopher, who had never held much regard for me in this pack, rose and positioned himself before me. I had always been seen as unworthy of the Luna title. I was only but a mere rogue who was captured to come and serve as a slave, but I somehow became the Luna because King, my mate needed a Luna. The pack members had never truly accepted me, and today seemed to mark the end of my reign. I had fallen before I had the chance to rise. "It appears we are all present now," Kristopher announced, as Sammy, my closest friend, entered the
Hiding the Alpha's Twins 2~ The Crime
~Avery~ Throughout the day, my thoughts lingered on King, and I found myself yearning for his return. With no enthusiasm for my classes or training, I pretended to be unwell, of course, I was lovesick, and I confined myself indoors. I spent the day lost in memories of the previous night, my mind replaying each moment until the sky outside was awash with orange hues. Eventually, I rose from my bed and stood by the window, my gaze fixed on the horizon, eagerly awaiting my mate's return. My mind was a whirlwind of questions. Why had King touched me the way he did last night? Would he come back to me this evening? Was this a sign of his acceptance? Thia, my wolf, was brimming with excitement, her restless energy almost infectious. It was then that Sammy's voice pierced my reverie through our mind-link. 'Hey, Ave, are you there?' she inquired, her mental voice tinged with concern. 'Yes, I am,' I replied, my voice bubbling with barely contained excitement. 'Thank go
