Semua Bab I Have Two Wolves and Three Mates: Bab 171 - Bab 180

Third Person Point of ViewRiley walked down the familiar path that led toward the humble two-story house. The rose bushes along the path were still there, bearing blooms in different colours. The house, with its white stone walls, looked just the same. Everything felt unchanged, as if two years hadn’t even passed, but the person walking this path had changed a lot.Riley rang the bell with trembling fingers. Eash, Ezra, and Leo stood behind her like protective bodyguards. The door opened almost instantly, as if the people inside had been waiting impatiently for that sound.Riley’s eyes lingered on the four people standing in the doorway: Kimberley, her beloved friend; Aunty Jay, who had been like a mother to her; and Kimberley’s parents, who had treated her like their own daughter.The moment they saw Riley, all of them froze. Their eyes widened, disbelief filling their faces. It was as if they were staring at a ghost.Riley felt like her heart was being squeezed painfully. Were they

Third Person Point of ViewRiley returned home in the evening, her heart still warm after reuniting with the people who kept her alive in her past life. She hugged Aunty Jay and Kimberley tightly. She didn’t want to leave them; part of her wished she could stay and support them in every way possible. But now she had a new life elsewhere, and she had to return to it. Still, from the bottom of her heart, she promised to revisit them soon. And she silently promised herself that she would look after them from now on.“Maybe next time, you all can come and visit Riley,” Eash suggested gently, noticing how Riley lingered, reluctant to say goodbye.“Yes,” Ezra agreed. “We can arrange everything. You can stay for a few days when you’re free.”“That way you can also meet Riley’s parents,” Leo added. “They are very kind people.”“Really? Can we visit her?” Kimberley asked, her eyes shining with excitement. She had entirely accepted this new Riley as her best friend, but she didn’t know where th

Third Person Point of View“Did you know she was pregnant when you left her?”After Riley asked this question, the whole room became painfully silent.Elsa and Ashley even stopped breathing for a moment. They had heard Riley’s story from her past life. They knew how hard it was for her, growing up without a father and with a mother who didn’t know how to love her. So when Riley asked this question, all Elsa and Ashley could think of was little Riley crying alone in a corner, wondering why she didn’t have a father like all the other kids.David Greathouse froze. His eyes lowered, and he let out a long sigh. His face was filled with unreadable emotions.Finally, he spoke.“…Yes.”The simple word stabbed Riley’s heart. She already knew the answer, but hearing it from her biological father felt different. It hurt in a new way.“I knew,” David continued, voice heavy. “But at that time… we were not in a position to raise a baby. I begged her for an abortion. I am… sorry.”Riley’s heart clen

Third Person Point of ViewDavid was still watching Riley, waiting for her reaction to his request.Riley stayed silent for a few seconds, then slowly shook her head.“Even if you realised your mistakes and want to correct them… what’s the use? My mother is already gone. I am not the girl I used to be. That part of life is already over.”Her voice trembled slightly, but her eyes were firm.David went quiet… but not for long.“Riley,” he began again, his voice unusually gentle. “Am I the only one who made mistakes?”Riley frowned, confused by his tone.“Didn’t your mates make mistakes too?” David continued. “Didn’t they hurt you a lot as well? But you chose to forgive them. You chose to forget everything and start a new life with them. So… why can’t you forgive me?”The moment those words left his mouth, the atmosphere in the room got even intense.Leo stiffened.Eash’s eyes darkened.Ezra’s aura spiked dangerously.They were sure that David was deliberately trying to drag them into th

Third Person Point of ViewRiley felt as if her past was repeating itself once again.The same feeling of betrayal filled her heart.Riley finally spoke, her voice trembling, not from weakness or sadness, but from uncontrollable anger.“You all did this behind my back!”Her mates didn’t speak. They just looked down with guilt.“You decided everything for me. You did something this big, something that could affect my whole life, without even asking me.”Still silence.“What right…” Her voice sharpened, “Did you have to do that?”The guilt on her mates’ faces deepened, but Riley was not done.“Even after doing something like that… you pretended like you did nothing. You hid everything from me. All three of you. If David didn’t come here today and say anything, how long were you planning to keep this from me? Until I die again, maybe?”Eash opened his mouth as soon as the word die escaped Riley’s lips, but no words came out.Leo finally spoke.“We were afraid…”Ezra nodded nervously.“We
