Chapter 46: The Warning
Emery
The tension was so thick; it couldn’t be cut by a knife. We sat side by side, our children next to us, and none of us looked at each other nor spoke. Logan must have sensed the heavy atmosphere, so he cleared his throat and started explaining the full details of the occurrence.“I’m sorry for interrupting both of your lunches, Miss Emery and Miss Amelia, but I believe that this problem will only be truly solved with the presence of both parents.”“Damn right, you interrupted my lunch.”“It’s no problem.”The both of us spoke at the same time, causing us to look at each other. But, I quickly broke the stare-down because we were here for a different reason. We weren't here to fight. “So I was saying, this recess time, Arlo was found pushing three children down on the ground. I was only planning on calling Miss Emery, but Devyn insisted th

EmeryAll in all, we’ve had a peaceful week ever since Amelia and I’s encounter last Monday. Kairo hasn’t been pestering me since last week, as well. There was a small part in my heart that missed his presence, but it’s probably just a fruit of my tiredness.That’s right. I’m just tired. How can I miss that bastard when I’m in my right mind?Right now, I’m cooking up some Tanghulu. If you didn’t know, Tanghulu originated from China, and they roughly translate to “candied fruits.” I woke up earlier than usual today to prepare the food that Arlo will be taking on his field trip. I heard he wanted me to cook some Tanghulu so that he could share them with Devyn.I smiled as the sugar boiled into the perfect color and texture, clear and viscous. I coated the juicy and vibrant fruits in the hot and sweet syrup and left them to dry on the rack. In the meantime, I prepared some sandwi

Emery “I’ll go. I’ll go with Emery.” I choked on the water that I was drinking, causing the liquid to splatter on Arlo. “Mommy!” He whined. “Sorry, sorry.” I turned to Kairo. “What did you just say?” He shrugged nonchalantly as if he just didn’t make an outrageous suggestion. “Let’s play. Together.” He motioned at the two of us. I looked at him incredulously. “I thought you said you didn’t want to play and that you’re not dressed for the occasion? Did you already forget about it?” He cleared his throat and appeared ignorant, “That was a while ago. I’m all loosened up now. And Devyn wanted to watch me go and play, right Devyn?” He nudged at the innocent child. Devyn looked confused but nodded regardless. That was totally forced! “I’ll just go with Logan,” I said while crossing my arms. Logan smiled and prepared to lead me to stand up. “Well, I want to participate now,

EmeryThe four of us walked in pairs toward the photobooth— Devyn with Kairo, then Arlo with me. The photographer gestured for us to come over, so I urged Kairo and Devyn to go first.However, the photographer insisted that we pose all together for the family picture.“Oh, what a beautiful family you have! I wish my husband looked even half good as you.” She chuckled. “And look at these little cuties! This boy is so pretty!" She squeezed Devyn's cheeks. "And you, little sir, look just like your father.” She pointed toward Arlo.My eyes widened, “Ah—We—Umm, we're separate families so we’d like to have separate pictures, please.”“Ooh, trouble in paradise?" She nudged Kairo. "That’s no problem! You could reconcile here. Come, come, we don’t have all day. We got to take your picture now, so I could print them right away before you go ba

Emery I was biting my nails and bouncing my leg while waiting for Luna Liliana to come to our house. I sent her the location of the cottage, and we were now waiting for her to arrive. Arlo was sitting next to me, holding my hand. He must have sensed that something was wrong. I squeezed his hands and gave him a forced smile, but he didn’t seem convinced. “Don’t be afraid, mommy. I will fight the monsters for you.” He said as he gave me a kiss on the cheek. My anxiety alleviated for a bit as I kissed his cheeks back. “I’m sure that you will, Arlo. I’m sure that you will.” The doorbell rang, and I hurriedly got up from the couch. I opened the door and saw Luna Liliana in her pajamas, standing worriedly in the cold night. Just by the sight of her alone, I broke down into tears. I didn’t even know that I was bottling up such emotion until now. A hand caressed my hair, but it wasn’t Luna Liliana’s delicate and warm hands

EmeryI twisted and turned in my bed, trying to fall into uninterrupted sleep. I pulled the blanket up to my face and breathed in deeply. ‘Come on, sleep. Count sheep. Take deep breaths. That’s right. Fuck.’I removed the blanket from my body and blew away the strands of hair that covered my face. I looked at Arlo next to me. He was sleeping deeply, with some drool dripping from the side of his mouth. I smiled and let him be.I carefully and quietly got off the bed and decided to get some fresh air. My throat is parched anyway, so I think a trip to the kitchen could help me sleep better. I wore my soft bunny slippers and went down to the kitchen.I fetched some warm water from the dispenser and drank it all in one go. Ahh, that feels good. I closed my eyes and relished the warm liquid streaming down my throat.“You’re still up?”I choked, causing me to cough. The person

Amelia I looked at my sexy figure in the mirror, satisfied with the way I looked tonight. I was in a vacant bedroom, getting ready to go out once again. I put on a bright red dress paired with black heels and curled my hair to give it that messy look. I slathered on some red lipstick and spritzed a rose-scented perfume on the warm points of my body. I smacked my lips together and gave myself a little wink. Damn, I look good. I took a taxi bound to the human territory and went down in front of a club. I’ve been going here for the past few months because I’ve been feeling restricted in the packhouse. Ever since I gave birth to that damn child, I never got the chance to do something for myself. It’s always about him! What about my needs? I’ve been getting more and more frustrated since last year because Kairo won’t give me the fucking Luna position. I’ve impressed Kairo for all these years with my strength just so I could take that damn p
The Alpha's Hidden Child Chapter 52: The True Mate
EmeryI groaned in pain as I held my head. Why the hell is it hurting so much? I sat up quietly and saw that Arlo was still sleeping next to me. My mouth had a bitter taste in it, and my throat felt drier than the Sahara desert.What happened yesterday?I just recall going down to get some water and fresh air when…Oh fuck, that’s right. I drank with Kairo! I hit my head, which made me wince in pain, but I deserved it. Didn’t I promise myself to stay away from him? I’m so stupid! I don’t even remember the details of yesterday’s event. I just remember going down, then Kairo suddenly appeared behind me. I was tempted by the ice-cold beer, so I reluctantly went and had a drink with him. We talked about our well-being, his happiness; then I said something about…Heck, I can’t remember.My head was throbbing even harder from all the thinking, so I closed my eyes for a moment. I glanced at th

Long chapter ahead!EmeryI went out on a run to get rid of some of my thoughts and to get my body back into shape. Although I am still stronger now, I’m still not at the level of when I was competing in the den. I was tired, and my sweat was dripping down on the ground, but I pushed my limits and ran until I was out of my breath.I stopped for a while to catch my breath, but the thought of knowing Amelia’s true mate kept creeping into my mind. Withstanding all of the tiredness that I felt, I ran even harder than I did.After a two-hour run, I finally decided to go back to the packhouse. I left when Arlo was sleeping, so I’m assuming that he’s probably awake by now.The country is currently under a national holiday, so Arlo and Devyn are at home most of the time. Most workers are also taking a one-week break because of the holidays. I hastened my steps so I could attend to Arlo before he could wake up.I opened the fr
