Semua Bab Bonded to the Alpha Twins : Bab 21 - Bab 30

Hurriedly I grabbed on the edges of the paper, almost tearing it in the process, squinting while running my eyes over the words. A lump lodged in my throat, vision blurring as I kept on flickering between the grainy photo and bold text. The entire pack must have read it by now, at least seen the horrible picture posted on the front page.    "H-How is this possible?" I croaked, eyes widening as I whirled around to glare at my sister. "Did you talk to anyone?"   "Ayee!" Esther let out a dramatic yelp, cheeks turning bright red, tilting her head towards my mother. "Do you see this, mom? She is crazy!"   "I am not getting in the middle of this!"  Before I could open my mouth, my sister nudged me, angry tears quickly filling her eyes, "How could you be so heartless as to accuse your little sister? Why w

/Rowan's POV/   "What are you going to do now?" The question rang in the air, making my body still. I clasped my hands, vision blurring while staring at the bright screen in front of me. An anonymous tip. That's all they said. Despite trying all the tactics, no one said a word except that line. Who was eager to break the news to pack? What could they possibly gain by doing this stunt?   Along with my beta, I sat with the IT department to get to the leading site of the newspaper publishing, but there was nothing. They weren't lying about the phone call part, but we could not get any information on the number.     I bought my hands to my temples, a loud breath ripping out of my chest, head lolling. For a second or two, I clenched my eyes shut, racking my brain for the mastermind. There

It was a miracle that I somehow managed to make it back home in one piece. Reeds interest paired with that intense atmosphere around was not a good idea. By the time I rushed out of there, I was still having trouble taking deep breaths, my heartbeat fast and erratic, hands trembling with suppressed nervous energy.    What would happen if he finds out, though? I suppressed all the memories in a box, locked it tight and threw the key somewhere. Will the deal fall through? Does that mean the end of our business relationship? I sunk my teeth on the bottom lip, toes curling in the sandals. Ignoring those thoughts, I tried to muster a smile and step through the door.    Upon entering, I frowned at the dark lighting in the room. Turning on the nearest switch, I noticed that my parent's room was already closed. My eyes went to the clock,

I watched as the Alpha took a step back as if he's been scalded. A bitter feeling formed in the pit of my belly, teeth-gritting together. So Reed was repulsed by touching me now? Why do I always let these Alphas see me at my worst? I thought to myself.     Somehow I upheld my chin, trying to fight through the migraine, feeling the familiar shoots of pain at my temples and the crown of my head. There was this intense urge to weep suddenly, frustrated and confused as to why he had to witness me like this.    Damon's words from earlier stung. More than that, it's overthinking that added to the stress of the last few days. My omega couldn't handle it anymore and went into a drop. If not for Reed calming be down, it would have lasted for hours, maybe days depending on the intensity. 

“Meet your family?” I echoed the question, throat going dry at their request. For a long second, I kept on hoping they would burst out in laughter, call it off as a joke. It did not happen. “Are you serious?”    Alpha Reed made a face, wiping the corner of his mouth with a napkin before setting it to his left side. “Why would we joke about these things? Besides, we have already met your family and talked to them. It’s only fair you reciprocate the action.”   Reed’s words kept ringing in my ears, but I could not focus, vision getting blurry. The thought of stepping into the packhouse with the sole intention of meeting Luna and the rest to those people. A shudder racked through my body, especially as I thought back to their treatment towards me.   &nbs
