The Alpha's Mistake CHAPTER 18
It was late midnight and everywhere was murky and quiet but Miriam had been standing at the kitchen counter clenching her stomach while struggling to hold her sobs for Ten minutes now. She picked up the knife on the counter before glaring at her midsection. She knew that she had nothing to lose, her perspective about the world had been lost ever since Christain chose to abandon her. Miriam wondered what her life would have been like if she hadn't been kidnapped that night? A fresh tear trickled down her cheeks trailing close to her lips.Miriam gripped the knife tightly as she shakily leaned against the counter. Her eyes blinked as she tried to stifle her gasp."If you wanted to die, you could have done it somewhere secretive." The voice of Carlos echoed in her head, she dropped the knife before trudging towards the liquid detergent placed to wash the dirty dishes. She grabbed the whole content before glaring at it. Miriam knew that this was going to solve her problem, she was good

The next day, Eleanor hadn't had any sleep since last night, she was tired and had swollen red eyes. She couldn't sleep after what her sister had schemed on taking her life. Eleanor had ended up looking after Miriam keenly throughout the night, she didn't want her sister to try another stupid move again.She was presently in the kitchen making herself a cup of tea for both she and Doris. Her hands ruffled her hair before a small groan left her lips. She had been too shocked about Miriam's behavior lately. "You know that Doris? I would never have believed anybody if they would have told me there would come a day when Miriam would want to take her own life. I was so frightened yesterday," Eleanor said, clutching her neck before rubbing it softly."She almost drank the whole content of this bottle. Thank God I showed up early or things might have escalated, I don't know why she wanted to kill that poor child so keenly?" Eleanor let out sipping from the smoky cup of coffee while clutchin
The Alpha's Mistake CHAPTER 20
Miriam had been gazing at the stars through the window of her room for what seemed to be an hour now. She couldn't feel anything and her body was tired and numb, her eyes had been fixed on the sky as different thoughts plummeted through her mind. She was knocked out of her trance when the scent of the food her sister and friend were preparing for dinner hit her nostril. She was about to leave for the kitchen when she noticed someone outside her window."Christian?" She called as a smile stretched over her lips. She walked out of her room before trudging outside the cold night. "Christian, where are you hiding?" She asked when she got outside and didn't see him around. She walked towards the far end of her house but noticed nobody. "Christian please show yourself and stop playing games already." She yelled. Meanwhile, Eleanor and Doris were setting the table. "Miriam?" Eleanor called but got no response. She walked into Miriam's room but she wasn't there. She checked every nook and c

Miriam sat on her bed with her head placed on her legs as she let out the puff she had been holding. "Miriam, I don't think I know you anymore. What were you doing in that building? One minute you were in your room and the other in a building with those men." Doris let out astonishment in her every speech.Miriam raised her head from her legs before speaking."Doris, you might think I'm a lunatic but believe me that I saw Christain standing Outside my window." Miriam let out making Doris to scoff. "Of course Miriam, your behavior is no different from that of a lunatic. You think you saw Christain outside your room when you are just hallucinating about him, Christain is still out of the country in Morocco for God's sake Miriam." Doris let out. "What do you mean Doris, I saw Christain outside." Miriam let out. "I told you to stop dwelling in the past and move on. You would only make yourself look like a lunatic if you don't move on," Doris let out, making Miriam knead her neck tiredly
The Alpha's Mistake CHAPTER 22
The new house where Miriam and her sister would be living was way different from their prior house. Carlos dipped his hands in his pocket before bringing out a key. He gave Eleanor and Miriam a smile before fixing the key to the door, he twisted the knob letting the door flicker open. "Come inside," he ushered both of them as they trudged into the well-furnished four-bedroom apartment. Eleanor was too absorbed with the beautiful apartment as her mouth was left open. "Carlos, are we allowed to set foot here? Someone might accuse us of trespassing." Eleanor let out. "Carlos, I think Eleanor is right, this house is way too glamorous for us to live in." Miriam let out as a chuckle escaped Carlos's lips. "You both are safe here and there is no one coming to send any of you away. I explained to you all yesterday that this is part of the company, Miriam is going to be working in our company." Carlos said clearly. "This is way too much, I promise to work very hard and your company wouldn't

Doris had dropped by at Miriam's office to chaperone her to the hospital for a checkup since she would be due soon. But their lives were almost caught short when a reckless driver almost ran them over. Doris quickly pulled Miriam back before raining curses on the driver but soon enough they halted when an expensively dressed lady came down from the car. "What's wrong with you foolish girls? If you wished to get your life eradicated, why don't you find somewhere else?" Gina muttered angrily. "Sorry Ms, we didn't mean to! We just didn't notice the car." Miriam apologized. "Wait, wait. Why are you apologizing? The driver was the one driving recklessly and they should be the one apologizing for trying to cause our untimely death," Doris let out with a Scoff."I'm sorry, I didn't see you, women!" The driver apologized."And who told you that you could apologize to these women, we don't even know what they are doing here?" Gina let out, her eyes widened when she noticed the company id ca

He would bring her sweet milk or coffee with a lot of whipping cream on the top, he would take her home every day and pick her up every morning so they could head to work together. but today was quite different because Carlos had called her on the phone telling her that he couldn't pick her up today because he had an early morning meeting."Why do you still go to work in your condition? get a break from work Miriam, look at your condition!" Eleanor let out worriedly but nonetheless, Miriam rubbed her tummy gently before giving Eleanor a slight chuckle. "Don't worry so much, I'm doing okay." Miriam let out confidently."Did you just say okay? you might get too exhausted and that isn't good for the baby." Eleanor clarified. "Eleanor, I would be fine moreover I don't lift heavy things in the office. I just seat on the chair and do the company files and documents." Miriam explained."

FIVE DAYS LATER It hasn't even been up to a week since Miriam left the hospital and she was practically dressed up to go back to work again. Her coworkers at the company had been gossiping about how she had chosen work over some few rest at home but she absolutely paid no attention to them. She didn't even have any care about her son's situation, she was practically acting like he didn't exist. She was having some toast and milk before she headed to the office as Eleanor stepped into the kitchen holding the crying baby. "Miriam, you haven't fed the baby once and you are intending on going to work just after five days of being discharged from the hospital! Why don't you check on the baby at least?" Eleanor asked, trying to comfort the crying baby. "Why would I do that Eleanor? I mean give me solid reasons why I should take care of that child. I already told you what to do, give it out to the orphanage or something because I don't want that baby close to me or I might kill it." Mir
