Semua Bab Rejected by The Future Alpha: Bab 21 - Bab 30

“I heard the news that my fiancé invited a girl to stay at his house,” Hayley said, placing her hands on her hips. Her jaw clenched as she fixed a sharp gaze on Ciara. “Turns out the news is true,” she added.“It’s not like what you think,” Scott said. However, he seemed indifferent to Hayley’s rage. He continued cooking instead of approaching her to calm her down.Of course, Scott’s demeanor only made Hayley angrier. “How can it not be what I think it is?! Now, if I were to invite a man to live with me, share the same room and bed, wouldn’t you think of what I think?!”Scott half-slammed the knife he was holding onto the countertop. One hand rested on the edge of the table, and the other was on his hip. He took a deep breath and stared at Hayley.“That’s a totally different thing!” he snapped. “It’s not like I invited her to stay here because I like her. It’s all because Hugh told me to take responsibility for Ciara being here.”“Oh... so your name is Ciara?” Hayley no longer paid at

There were more werewolves gathering when Ciara arrived at the patrol team’s main base. The place was huge, consisting of wooden buildings, a very spacious semi-open room, and a courtyard capable of accommodating a thousand people. Ciara felt the burning enthusiasm amidst her embarrassment. She was happy to meet many werewolves, something she had dreamed of for a long time. However, just like when she came to Silvercrest, all eyes looked at her with suspicion and curiosity.She followed Scott as he walked while chatting with Sewell. She lowered her head, occasionally glancing towards the crowd, who stared back at her cynically. Among the crowd was Hayley.Everyone crowded toward the open space near the field and stood in rows. Five other people, including Scott, stood facing them. Ciara knew those five people; three of them were the ones who came to Scott and Ciara at the cabin. It seemed they were important figures in Silvercrest, just like Scott.Ciara stood outside the room, near t

All core members of the patrol team accepted Burke’s idea, and Scott couldn’t refuse because he didn’t want a rift between himself and his friends. This could impact the solidity of the patrol team and would even be bad for Ciara.Scott was looking for the right time to tell Ciara. On the way back home, they both remained silent. Ciara seemed exhausted and reluctant to speak. She must not be at ease after the things with Scott’s friends and Gordon. Scott would give her some time to rest, prepare dinner for her, and silently promise himself not to be offended if Ciara didn’t want to eat it, and then they would talk.As they entered the house, Scott and Ciara looked at each other and spoke almost simultaneously.“I’ll cook dinner,” Scott said.“Wh—where is my room?” Ciara asked.They both were surprised. Ciara immediately looked down and whispered, “Sorry.” She shrugged. “It’s okay if I don’t have a room. I mean, you don’t have to give me a room.” She seemed confused by her words, and S

It took an hour from Silvercrest to the nearest town, Naechester. Just like when Ciara first got into Scott’s car, her expression as the car glided into the city center of Naechester amused him. She was so excited like a kid being taken to a playground.“You look happy,” Scott said teasingly.Ciara seemed too elated to realize that he was teasing her. Her window was still wide open, but she no longer leaned out. Scott told her not to stick body parts out because they were now in fairly heavy traffic.Unlike Silvercrest, which was a settlement inhabited by werewolves, Naechester was a larger city inhabited by humans. Although Silvercrest also had shopping centers, restaurants, clothing stores, and public places like any city, Scott didn’t want to take Ciara around Silvercrest. It would only spark gossip and make Ciara the center of attention. He didn’t want to make her uncomfortable while she was in Silvercrest.“What’s that place?” Ciara asked, pointing to a bakery dominated by pink a

Scott couldn’t stop thinking about his behavior today. He didn’t feel like he was being himself, but he couldn’t deny that… he enjoyed it.He didn’t know when was the last time he went into town to just take a walk, or eat at a restaurant while watching the traffic and people passing by on the sidewalks.He’s been too busy preparing to become an Alpha and training the patrol team to properly protect the pack.He didn’t have time to really enjoy life.When he saw Ciara drink all of his beer and smash the glass while wiping away tears, he couldn’t help but smile.They stared at each other and laughed. A sincere laugh that Scott never seemed to have done so far.To borrow Godrick’s term, Scott’s life has always been like a somber black-and-white picture, and that’s why Scott is better suited to spending time with the serious Burke than Godrick and Sewell.Scott suddenly wanted to spend more time with Ciara. When they were done with the meal, he would take her to explore the city, to anti
