Ember's POVI made sure that I shot him a confused look. I was the epitome of confusion, " What do you mean?" I replied, applauding myself internally for maintaining a calm composure when I was indeed trembling inside. It was a lot to process, seeing that he might have some information and was just waiting for confirmation. I'd be damned if there was a problem from my angle. Of course, I'll wait to be able to stop him from fostering the idea. Trent stared at me for the longest before shaking his head silently. I didn't know what he was thinking and honestly, I didn't care because I wouldn't allow him to know what I was up to." I don't know, you tell me." He replied cryptically and I raised a brow again to stare at him. Was he kidding me right now? I was sure that he must have been kidding because this was just an entire child's play if he thought that I was going to admit to knowing anything about him. " I don't know what you're expecting but I don't know what you mean or want to h
Ember's POV"Help her do what?" "I don't know what's wrong with that girl. Everyone just keeps telling me that she's still with that godforsaken man, I don't think I've ever seen anyone so nonchalant and careless as my sister. I feel ashamed to call her that because she makes it hard to speak to the pack when she's doing the worst.`` I hummed instead and sipped my glass of margarita. I was told that it was safe for me to drink as long as it was in moderate proportion. "Is that all you're going to say?" I nodded. " She wished me death, what do you want me to say? That I would talk to her when I won't? No, that's impossible. And after, have you tell me that I'm the one enabling her. I guess you've finally seen the reason she fell pregnant the first time." He tickled me causing my drink to spill over on my dress. " See what you did now. What do you gain from this now?" I reached for the serviette and used it to dab at the front of my dress while he tightened his grip on my shoulder
Ember's POV"What do you mean for his ex-wife?!" I replied, causing the kids to jolt at the sound of my voice. This was totally rubbish. Why was he bringing her to the house? "Is Trent aware of this nonsense?"She shook her head, " No, I don't think so. I think it's intended to be a surprise to him too. She is basically coming to cause trouble which I wish can be prevented because I don't even know what to say." After searching her face and seeing that she was telling nothing but the truth I discovered that it was probably a very big issue and that it wouldn't be good if I wasn't in the know. One thing was still confusing though. " Why is she now trying to mend fences with me?" I asked her. She shrugged nonchalantly. " I don't know, but she says that she's sorry. I guess the former Luna doesn't have a place to stay anymore and he's kind of owing her. I don't understand that area because it's quite gray. All I know is that it's not that hard to understand. I was just thinking about
Ember's POVBy the next morning, I was already out of the house feeling a bit tired with the current situations of things. My head was working at a million miles per minute. For some, it might be a bit cool but for me it wasn't because I was still trying to navigate a lot of things that was bound to make me a bit confused for a while. One of my major problems was getting the thought of the new woman showing up while I was around. Anyway, I had decided that I was going to make sure that nothing stopped or hindered me from doing what I should do on a normal day. I was in my room, attending to my kids and also drawing the board map for what I was going to do with my life and how to take my business to a bigger level. What better way could I have done this except making sure that I left the house for a few minutes and made sure that there was nothing hindering me from doing the best that I could do at least for now. I was a bit worried about everything that was going on. What if there
Ember's POV"Oh? I don't know what is going on... Yeah... today is my birthday. I have totally forgotten about that."He kissed me and smiled. "Well I haven't. it's a good thing you dressed up pretty. I was scared that you wouldn't fall for my trucks. Alas, it ended up being good though. I don't think that anyone would be able to stop your shine at least not now."I smiled at him because this was a very sweet thing to do and I felt warm in my heart. It's almost as though there was something that was stuck in my throat. I couldn't believe that I was crying. "Thank you.""Are you crying, Ember?" The men began to clap and more tears streamed down my eyes. I was happy and at the same time sorrowful. Reason being that this man was a very good man and he was going to be heartbroken later on. I would have preferred to hurt a man if he was probably wicked to me but doing all of this and still betraying him? I didn't know how to navigate that."You are so overwhelmed." He muttered and I sta
Ember's POVI glared at the stupid woman that was ranting. I just knew who she was the moment she walked in."Let her go." I told the guards who unhandled her and was making her think about the next thing to do. "You shouldn't be here. Why are you a nuisance? There are better ways to make an entry. It's late already." I said and she glared at me but I didn't care at all. it was her business whatsoever she tried to do with or without my consent."Yo have some nerve to act like you're high and mighty because of what in fact? The fact that you don't need all the money in the world but you still end up with my husband looking deathly pale?"I raised a brow at her. She was sounding deranged and I was very sure that there was a problem somewhere that she needed to address then right after we could start doing something else that we should have from the beginning. "Are you sure that you're okay? I'm asking respectfully. I don't know what I should even tell you." I replied.She glared at me
Ember's POVI was bewildered as I heard the information. He didn't seek my opinion before going ahead to bring someone who I didn't vet into my home and it was as annoying as it could get. I was already tired about what was going to happen and while I was waiting for him, I was just in a state of dilemma but didn't want to show it."I'm sorry she can't stay here. She's going to cause trouble for me and my kids and I might lose my cool. So It's better we keep her away then or what do you think?" I asked him.He hummed but I don't know if he agreed with me though but I was very tired and needed some time to rest and possibly take a nap too if time permitted. There was going to be something that I would do that would make it happen as quickly as possible. I didn't know what else to do except tell that lady to leave immediately. It wasn't very easy to have a rival whose intentions were well known to come live under one's roof but the only thing that I could do right now was to make sure t
Ember's POVI stared at the wicked being who was busy staring at me with a glare that could freeze the antarctic. I was shocked by the event. If anyone had told me I would never have believed because that meant that there was a problem somewhere that was causing me to realize that I was not safe.I shuddered in fear and stared at her best friend, Elise who was also frozen. I quickly reached for the knife in the ex-wife's hands and we began to struggle.The blades began to cut through my hand softly and I was freezing daily. "Oh my goodness, I made a terrible mistake when I should have just made sure that I watched the previous night and made sure that she didn't sleep inside this house.This was all Trent's fault. He knew that he had a psycho as an ex yet he gave her the permission to come into the house, what sort of blind trust was that? It could cripple anyone and I'm just wondering what the problem might be. I'd rather have time to do something else than to stay with the contemptu
