Semua Bab A Surrogate For The Alpha: His Substitute Bride: Bab 101 - Bab 105

VIVIAN I stood quietly, watching Isla as she stood with her arms crossed on her chest and her expression unreadable.My thoughts were spinning in a hundred directions, and honestly, I didn’t know what to believe anymore.But one thing was for sure. She saved me.There was no denying that. If she hadn’t shown up, I might not be here right now. But just because someone helps you once doesn’t mean you can trust them forever, right? That was the thought that kept circling in my mind.I couldn’t tell what was real and what wasn’t anymore. My body was still weak, and my thoughts were still a bit fuzzy.I didn't know if it was the effect of whatever that thing was that Isla’s mom began rubbing on my tummy.I just hoped that it wouldn't have an effect on my child growing in my womb. I had so much wanted a baby. I didn't know what I’d do if I lost the child.I wanted to believe Isla was telling the truth. I wanted to believe that maybe fate had brought us together for a reason because it fel

VIVIAN “I’m not sure if it’s going to work,” I said slowly, biting my lower lip as I looked at her. “It’s just a plan… and I don’t even know if it’s a good one.

Ever since Selene unlocked my powers, I had been getting these strange thoughts. Ideas that came into my mind out of nowhere but when I needed them the most. It was always like a soft voice whispering inside my head, feeding me ideas at just the right moment but it wasn’t my wolf. It wasn’t loud or forceful like my wolf always sounded, but calm… and it always made sense. I finally sighed and looked her in the eyes. “Do you remember how I insisted Isla should stay for lunch?” Priestess Tanya b

VIVIAN I looked at Priestess Tanya, and she gave me a firm nod like she was already prepared for what I was about to do.Her eyes held a kind of determination that made me feel a little braver too. I took in a deep breath and gave her a soft smile.“You can go tell them that the meal is ready. Wish me luck,” I told her quietly.“Good luck, pure blood,” She whispered with a smile.“Thanks, Tanya,” I answered.She just nodded again and turned to leave the kitchen.As soon as the door closed behind her, the whole room suddenly felt silent again, like the walls themselves were holding their breath with me.Now that I was alone, I focused on calming my thoughts. My heart was beating fast, and even though I was standing still, my thoughts weren’t.I tried to slow my breathing in order to calm myself down. I needed to be ready.
