LOGINRHONDAThe expression on Layla’s face wasn’t jealousy or hurt. It was rage, and maybe a hint of fear, which further reaffirmed my suspicions that she wanted Theodore for other reasons. She didn’t love him. She just wanted to leech onto him.Before she could think of a response, I pushed past her and went back to my son.The following day, we woke up early for the wedding ceremony I dreaded attending. But I still had to get Leo ready for it. I dressed him in a purple tuxedo with a white dress shirt. His hair was neatly styled in a soft side part. He looked so cute.The decorated pack square was already filled with pack members and a few invited guests. Everyone was walking around in elegant dresses and suits, chatting and laughing. I noticed a lot of gazes directed at me and my son, but I ignored them.I had no business with any of them. We would just attend this wedding and leave.When it was time for the ceremony to properly begin, everyone gathered around, staring at the altar where
THEODOREThe air outside was cool as I walked with Leo around the park. The stupid bodyguard Rhonda had made sure to follow us was behind, watching our every movement. It annoyed me so much that Rhonda thought I couldn’t protect my own son.“Daddy, what will you get for me for my birthday?” Leo suddenly said.A wide smile spread on my face as I looked at him. “What do you want, boy?”“A Spider-Man suit!” he beamed.“Spider-Man? Why Spider-Man?” I asked.Before he replied, I noticed the bodyguard received a call, and I focused my attention to listen to what he was saying, forgetting to hear Leo’s response.“Yes, sir. We are at the park right now. Everything seems normal.” He paused. “Okay, sir. I’ll update you.”I turned around to look at him, my eyes sharp with a glare.“And what gave you and whoever hired you the audacity to spy on me and my son?” I growled.“I am not spying on you, Alpha,” he said with a straight face and stern tone. “I am only keeping an eye on Leo.”“Telling him e
RHONDA“What is happening here?” Theodore asked as he marched inside.“You ask your Luna,” I said the last word with a sarcastic tone as I tried to walk away. But Layla grabbed my arm and pulled me back.“How dare you pour hot coffee on my face!” she screamed.“Rhonda, are you jealous?” Theodore’s words almost made me gag.I shot my brow up as I flicked my gaze at him. “Jealous of what? Jealous of who? Someone who is out to destroy you?”“That’s all you do, accuse me of what I am innocent of. Why are you jealous of me?” Layla had the nerve to say.“Oh, you want to go down that hole? Let’s go on,” venom filled my voice as I started, “how is Charles? Your lover. Heard from him in jail? How about your son, Joseph? The one you had with Charles. And oh, the precious little girl. I bet she’s also Charles’ and not Theodore’s.”She flicked her gaze at Theodore, her eyes pleading. “Do not believe her. She’s only trying to frame me out of jealousy.”“Rhonda, why are you like this? You always u
RHONDAI went straight to the kitchen to get a nice cup of coffee. The pack members still respected me. They all greeted me with bows as they walked past. Some even offered smiles.The head cook, Grace’s eyes lightened the moment she saw me enter the kitchen. “Luna Rhonda!” she beamed.She was showing a girl chopping vegetables the right way to do it, but quickly dropped it and inched closer to me.“Grace, how are you? And how is your son Liam?” I asked, smiling sweetly at her.“I am fine. He is fine,” she beamed, her eyes crinkling as she smiled. I noticed how much older Grace had grown. Still, age looked beautiful on her.“Very nice then,” I looked around the kitchen. “Is there perhaps coffee available? A very hot one, please,” I asked politely.“We can quickly brew one for you,” she offered.“Very well. Thank you,” I nodded, smiling at her.She quickly turned around and instructed one of her girls to prepare a hot cup of coffee for me.While we waited, Victor inched closer to me an
RHONDACockroaches. Crickets. Ants. All sorts of bugs filled the entire room. Leo also screamed.What the actual fuck? What the hell was happening?“Oops,” Layla’s voice sounded from behind. “Only a room filled with filth gets infested with bugs. But...” she poked her head into the room, “this room doesn’t appear to be dirty. So it seems from the surface. Perhaps, the room was filled with a lot of negative aura, left in the wake of the one who used to occupy it.”I didn’t need rocket science knowledge to know that this was Layla’s doing.I glared at her, rage rumbling in my chest.“Ex-Luna. Do you have anything to say?” she flicked her gaze at me, a contemptuous smile on her lips. She had stressed the ‘Ex.’She was doing this intentionally. Trying to provoke me. She wanted to get a reaction out of me, take the opportunity to escalate it, and make me look crazy for accusing her. People had already gathered, watching to see what would happen. I knew better than to move in line with her
RHONDAThe weekend came and Leo and I were prepared to go to Brighton City. Malcolm offered to follow, but I declined, citing that he needed to remain in West Haven to run his company and his pack. Moreover, Leo and I would be in the Diamond Pack estate all through the visit. And we all knew that Malcolm wouldn’t be allowed to step foot into the estate.“I will miss you though,” Malcolm muttered as he accompanied us to the car that was to convey us to the airport where his private jet was waiting to fly us to Brighton.“Oh, I will miss you more,” I wrapped my arms around him, throwing my head back to meet his gaze. “I’ll be back before you know it.”He planted a kiss on my lips. “Please be careful. If I could, then I would’ve found a way to stop you from going there.”I also dreaded the idea of going to that pack, talk more of staying there for two nights. Sunday evening, I’d pack my bags and leave there with my son. Hell, I was already considering appealing in court, demanding comple
MALCOLMRhonda had been discharged from the hospital. All my efforts to see her had been futile. She specifically chose Theodore over me. Rage filled my every vein, but it wasn’t at her. She was simply clueless about everything that had happened and only chose what she thought was right.If I ever
RHONDAEverything was still so confusing, and I didn’t know if I was making the right decision. The thoughts weighed down on me so heavily, and I hoped I wouldn’t have any regrets.I looked out through the window on our way, allowing the fresh breeze to sweep over my face as my hair flew freely in
RHONDA“Because you are mine!” Theodore literally growled possessively from the other end of the line.The rage blasting Malcolm’s features intensified as he snatched the phone from me.“She is not yours!” he growled into the phone, “and you better get your fucking dick in control until you reject
RHONDAThey both froze in shock before Layla quickly spoke.“His daughter?” Layla scoffed as she slowly sat up. “How can I be his daughter? We look nothing alike.”“Don’t even try to fool me. I know what I heard,” I groaned as I stepped further into the room.“Rhonda,” James stretched his arms forw
