I was crying to myself and at the same time I try to control my breath when I hear the door suddenly opens and my parents walked in.
Rapidly, I wipe off my tears and ran to the kitchen tub splashing water on my face. I try to put on a smile, calming myself down before going back in the living room to greet them.
They look with shock when they turn and find me standing there with a smile.
Yeah, I am just going to pretend that everything is fine that I am perfectly okay.
"Oh honey," my mom came and hug me while my dad kisses me on the forehead.
"I have prepared our dinner" I pressed my lips together, again my mom kisses me on the forehead.
"You should have waited for me to come and do it but thank you honey" she smiles at me and my dad squeezes her hands.
"We have something to ask you but after dinner" my dad says while taking off his jacket.
We all went back to the kitchen to have our dinner. It was pleasant and I enjoy
I woke up the next day and remembered that I need to pack my stuff as I will be leaving tomorrow. It may be too soon but I know I need this. Not to escape but an air to breathe just for a time before I come back and face my demons or should I say my one own demon. My eyes slowly dart around my room taking in every picture of it, from the painting to the walls then to the bookshelves and everything else inside this room. I stood up and began to look for my clothes to take and things to be left here. Afterwards I moved to my left bookshelf to look for any books to take with me. I was choosing from my old edition collection when suddenly a book fell off from the shelf and landed on the floor. I put it back in the shelf and turn to leave but that is when I realized a photo on the floor. It must have fallen off from the book. I pick it up turning it over only to find my father smiling besides a female who clung onto his arms and a m
Matteo'sPOV "What the hell are you doing here?" she snarls at me. I know she hated me right now but I have to make things right this instant. Yes, I have been hiding from my father and last week I have been in hell and thought of truly giving myself to Adassah. The past weeks made me re thinks about a lot of things especially my decisions. It even makes me realise that I am falling for her too and I want this to work between us. I miss her and I damn well regret what I did. I couldn't sleep for eight days thinking about Adassah and me. Aaron has been helping me out a lot. He has been giving me advice about the essence of having your true mate besides you. He even scolded me for doing that to her, the granddaughter of nana Gloria who has been helping us out a lot. So Jay never calls me not until today and told me that he heard Adassah is leaving. So without caring of being caught by my dad
I woke up with no sign of Matteo. I sat there on my bed with tears from my eyes. Alera hates me for what I did but I kept on telling her that it was just a dream. I must be dreaming I thought to myself then I felt a cold metal in my right palm. Opening my palm, I saw the promise ring he gave me. It was beautifully made with little white diamonds surrounding it and a medium diamond in the middle. Admiration was the word I would say this moment when looking at this ring. Then reality hits me that everything wasn't a dream. Matteo was here and I almost kill him not until I saw those green eyes again and that face whom I use to dream of everyday. I felt this urge to throw the ring away but since he said it belongs to his grandma I have respect for that and keep it. 'Then what if it's a lie' my subconscious reminded me but again I still hold on to that hope that my mate was being sincere and he meant every words he says.
Matteo's Pov I can't believe what I just hear from my father, some part of me wanted to deny it but his words have already gotten in my head. His threats have completely won over me. I did not know my mother elope with someone else who was not an Alpha. I always thought she chose another by coming clean to my father yet that wasn't the case at all. Precisely the prisoner namely James who escapes from the cell was the one who tries to elope with my mother. Adassah's father was best friends with those two. Another surprising info for me. My father said my mother brought her friends from her old packs. He didn't approve of it but she made him do it. She made him believe and blindly he trusted her as she was his Mate. So they were all accepted and stays together in the pack house without him knowing my mother's evil scheme behind his back. She has planned to betray him and the pack. The three of th
The car arrived around late night, most of the lights were out and there were only guards around the place. The driver drops me off in front of a huge gate where there are two wolves’ statues stood proudly at each side of the gate. I saw a man coming then he opens up the gate before extending his hand to me. "Hi I don't know if you remember me but I'm Beta Lucian" he gave me a welcoming smile and I shook his hand in return. I do remember him it's not like I have any memory loss besides Matteo almost breaking his bones makes him memorable. I know I sounded like a bitch but I just want to be one. 'Good luck on that' Alera said through our link. Despite the time I arrive, Lucian still shows me off to the campus. We put my suitcases in my allocated room then we went around other places. He also told me that there are only two of us who admit earlier it was just me and a transfer student from the King's College. Aft
Four years later "She can't come home Lyndon, not now" I hear my mom reminding my dad through the phone. "She needs to finish her training" it was like she is the one talking to me over the phone but not my dad. "Dad, please tell mom I need to be there for my brother's birth" "I heard that and no you can't" she calls over. "You heard that honey, you can't come home but will send you photos" he chimes and I just gave up on that and told them I love you before ending the call. Indeed, I am not necessarily giving up as I am packing my clothes in my suitcase. Ughh…how can they not want me to be there? like seriously I want to be there when my brother is born. Therefore, I am going there as a surprise whether they like it or not. Who knows Matteo is going to be surprise too, and I just hope he has kept his promises. After all it has been four years of going to College here and now I finally want to
Stretching out my arms in front of my home. I smile taking in the view of our house. After four hours of ride I am finally here in one piece with no accident on the road or any rogues attack. I can't believe nothing has changed. I walk up to the front door and found it lock. 'Perfect' I excitedly giggle while going around and climb over my room. "Geez thanks to the moon goddess they didn't cut down this tree" I mumble to myself as I made my way up the window. The window was locked but I use my arm to break it down and finally I was in. 'It's good to be back home' I threw myself on the bed and happy that everything was still the same as I left them to be. I watch the ceiling for a moment thinking of how things are around here before running down the stairs to get my suitcase inside the house. I locked the door again and made my way to my room where I unpack my stuff and thought of ways to surprise my parents. A
'Quite when I'm coming home And I'm on my own I could lie say I like it like...' Those are the words of the song I hear as I watch him took her hand into his. In my head Alera start to claw her way out while I keep on whispering to myself that he lies. My hand clutching on his ring tightly with my eyes fixed on him. He kisses her hand smiling at her then lead her on the dance floor. I stumble back sitting on a nearby chair hiding myself from everyone. I try to control my breath as I watches them dancing on the floor with all eyes on them before other lunas and their Alpha's join in the dance. Cora and Gia steps forward trying to help me up but I held up my hands stopping them from coming any closer to me. I heard my friends sniffling "Addy" but I stop them both. "Please leave" I beg them as I close my eyes with a lone tear falling on my lap. "Please" I pleaded a
