It took Zella two more days before she was discharged from the hospital and sent back home with both her and the baby safe. Frankly, it was Skye who was most delighted by the news, she needed her twin to talk to. It might sound callous of her but she has no one to talk to but her, especially now that she had a lot of things that she wanted out of her mind. “Are you sure that you’re okay? Should you be walking around? What about food? What should you eat so we could avoid this again?” “Hush, Skye. Your sister is all right. The doctor has cleared both her and little munchkin, they’re both gonna be fine.” Skye looked at her mother with a raised eyebrow before taking a glance in her twin’s direction, receiving a wide smile and a small head tilt for an answer. “Now, Skye go ahead and help your sister settle back into her room, take her bag too.” Sending another baffled look toward her parents, Skye picked up her sister’s hospital bag before slotting her arm against her twin leading her

“You do realize that you’ll continue to get embarrassed the longer you hide in here.” Zella’s words were a dagger that sliced through the silent atmosphere inside Skye’s room, the elder twins’ eyes were lazily wandering around every now and then and would stop right on her twins’ crouching figure on the bed. “Shut up. How would I know that he’ll be coming here all romantic like that.” Skye growled back at her sibling, sending the elder a small glare before continuing to hide her tomato-red face on her pillow, the blue, five-foot-long teddy bear lying right beside her on the bed. “Go to the bathroom and wash your face, I’ll go down and tend to our guest while you calm yourself.” Zella pushed herself off of the wall before leaving Skye’s room, making her way back down the stairs, nodding at the Alpha’s direction before detouring back to the kitchen where she prepared something to drink for the Alpha. “Skye will be down in a moment, she just needed to wash her face. She wasn’t, well w

“Come on, Skye. Just a little more.” A nasty groan of pain erupted from the woman as her blue eyes stares right back to the pools of a dark abyss before a cry left her lips and she let her head fall forward, hitting her head on the table with the loudest ‘bang’ that had the two other occupants of room winced at the sound. “Skye,” the aforementioned owner of the name suddenly stopped banging her head on the table, only to look up and meet an almost identical, yet slightly bit darker-colored pair of her own eyes, “stop hurting yourself, please.” It was not a request but an order in the form of a request if how hard Zella was looking at her younger twin was any kind of indication. “But, who in their right mind, that is, would torture themselves learning this.” Hakan would have laughed because frankly speaking the scene in front of him was amusing to no end. He had been trying – and spectacularly failing – to teach and get his betrothed to understand the subject but to no avail, it seeme

To say the least, a personally hand-written apology was not something Skye expected to receive a day after she had just told her betrothed to politely fuck off, not the words she had used but for lack of better phrasing, it was what she did. The letter had come in the form of a familiar tall and bulky man and if Skye was to trust her memory, she had already seen the man and knew full well where he was from. “I told your Alpha not to come here, and he sent you? Smart man.” Richard Aldrich was the beta of the Knox pack, yet he couldn’t help but adjust his stance against the wandering gaze of the smaller woman. “What brought you here? I truly wish it is not for your sorry excuse of an Alpha.” The hate lacing Skye’s voice was more than enough for the beta to take a quick step back. “Alpha Hakan,” another flinch from the man amused the smaller woman to no end, “Has sent me over to give you this.” The man hesitated for a bit but Skye watched as the man squared his shoulder before walking

“Alpha Hakan, I did as you asked and delivered the box, to Ms. Skye.” Hakan’s hand froze a couple of centimeters away from the paper, his pen in hand, before he righted himself. He put on the pen’s cap, placing it down, before raising his head and looking at his delta, Neil. “Ho-,” he let out a cough, trying his best to push away the embarrassment creeping up on him for letting his voice crack, “How did she take it?” He was NOT, definitely not panicking inside, as he placed his hands on his lap and started fiddling with it. Neil stared at his alpha and he couldn’t help but smile, it was the man’s small action like this that shows that he was still human, that he was not the unfeeling monster that some of the members of their society had portrayed him as, just because he had challenged his father for the alpha position within their pack. “Calm down alpha. Miss Skye allowed me in her home to place down the package and she instructed me to hand this to you.” Neil took out the preciou
