CHAPTER 51 ALICIA’S POV. I didn’t say anything immediately I figured he was in the room, just turned back and continued my search for where the little switch could be. If it was in my room that this happened, I would know my way around but here, I don’t know one shit and I can’t afford to stay with him in the darkness even for one more minute. My hands fumbled in the dark, my eyes opened to nothing but a pit of nothingness. I carried my feet carefully, not wanting to give myself a bruise in a locked room without any care. And which I was sure that Callum or Mia would never find any help. Mia. I was going to kill her immediately I was out of this place. If Callum had come to me, I would not have answered but I only came here because it turned out to be Mia, because she begged me with something that turned out to be a lie. I was trying to figure out where the light was when I felt something stumble hard on me. A scream left my mouth as I figured out what it was, I was going to f

CHAPTER 53 ARTFOLD’S POV I was the first person to wake up between both of us, and waking up first has never felt so beautiful and sweet at the same time. I could not remember the last time I felt this way. Maybe when Liana was still alive. I quickly shoved the thoughts of Liana off my mind to focus on her, the way she slept so peacefully, the way her lashes rested on her face quietly. Everything felt so surreal and stomach filling. I stared to her face. Last night has been one of my best nights so far, crazy and splendid. From the kiss, the little approvals, her little giggle, me holding her till morning, everything was great. I leaned and placed a peck on her cheeks before standing up, ignoring the pit in my stomach that felt weird about everything. I lifted the corners of my lips up as an idea for the morning popped into my head. An annoying sigh escaped my lips, followed with the clench of my jaws as I turned the knob and noticed it was still locked. “Callum…” I growled in

CHAPTER 55 MIA’S POV I stood there for more than a while, unable to move, unable to shake, even unable to blink. He was gone but his actions still left me dumbfounded. He kissed me. Nope. He pecked my cheeks. The beta pecked my cheeks. My mate pecked my cheeks. The entirety of it all made me want to squeal inwards and also made me not want to squeal. Now he would think that our relationship has moved by a notch and he can now start asking for more things. Now that we’ve done pecking on the cheek, it would be the lips next, then other places and I might end up in his bed soon. And after that, he’ll figure out that he doesn’t want me again and he’ll let me go and then I would be something I don’t want to be. A MISTRESS. Not to lie, hearing the alpha call me a mistress really got to me. The shock was why I could not respond to him first and I was more than grateful when Alicia replied on my behalf. But now that there might be a tiny realization of me actually turning to a mistr

CHAPTER 57 CALLUM’S POV I was nervous as hell as I wore the final piece of my suit, every nerve and blood running in my body vibing with serious detail to everything. I had picked a black gown for her which I hoped she would wear. I sent another black gown for Bella to wear which I hoped would size her because I don’t know her correct size and just picked a child’s clothing for her. I was wearing a black suit too, a white undershirt and a black blazer to match the black pants. I paired it with a black cover shoe, styled my hair in the best possible way. I had spent two days preparing for this date and I didn’t want anything at all to ruin it. I made my way outside my house, and I caught a whiff of a scent that was very unlikely to be here. I stopped, glancing through my surroundings and seeing nothing out of the blue before entering the car I had picked for this specific occasion. I was going out of my way to make sure she was highly impressed by everything. Since it was dinner f

CHAPTER 59 MIA’S POV The minute we got out of the car, I knew he had outdone himself. It was so fucking obvious, from the decorations from where he packed the car, he had perfectly and gently planned the entire thing. Bella didn’t keep quiet once throughout the entire ride and he had told me to just manage myself as he could manage her. I got down, my eyes following the petals on the floor and my heart almost reaching the top where it would burst out of joy while he attended to Bella. “Wow! Mummy what’s all of this? Are they for me?” She dropped down from his arms, running along and following the path of the flowers in her little ballet shoe. I followed suit, only to stop in front of the door because of how shocked I was. I didn’t even know what to say or do except for a slight part of my lips and my eyes gauging every part of the room. I had my eyes on where Bella was but I was still in great awe of the planning. I have never been on too many dates before, or maybe any date a
