Semua Bab Forbidden desires: In love with my brother's best friend : Bab 101 - Bab 110

The thud and the footsteps echoed before they came to an abrupt stop just before the door. Alpha and Luna Gregory, who had been awake, barely able to sleep the night, were dressed up instantly as they made their way down to the source. Luna Gregory had repeated what it was they were to expect, but each time, words failed her, barely trying to come out. She hooked her hand around her husband, solidifying that they were together in this, before gazing at the pack leaders who stood in front of her. Most of them were here to get her daughter and take her away from them. She knew they would be greedy. They will do whatever it takes just to make sure she lets her go, but she wanted to keep her to herself. Lina wasn't going anywhere. She was grateful that she was still asleep and, as such, wouldn't be able to tell what was going on. She needed to be certain what it was that would be said and the decision they must have come to before they got here because she knew that there was no way t

Darren wanted to get away from here. He didn't want to be here at this moment, all he wanted to do was be close to Lina and tell her what he truly felt for her. Why was it that no one could see that? Why was everyone trying to force him to get married to Emily? He hated how much his mother was trying to come in between them. He needed to tell everyone, including the beta, that he wasn't interested in getting married to Emily, and if they persisted, then he would have to do what was on his mind, which was to let the position go. He knew it was one he couldn't defend. It wasn't what he wanted; if he had Lina by his side, everything would be perfect. That was something he knew, so why couldn't the others see it as well? It wasn't like it was in the 19th century. It was way past that, and even at this point, his wife was being chosen for him. If only his mother could look beyond her greed for once, even if it was just once, then she would be able to give him what it was that he wanted.

Lina’s POV “Really?” I mouthed out almost in disbelief. “But you have to take your bath , princess; you have to freshen up before you head over.”“No, I am going to see her right away, and I am not going to waste any more minutes than I already have. I have been waiting for this.”“Then we will go with you.”“You all? Why?” One would think that she was a friend to us all. “What do you want to do there? She isn't your friend.”“She is like a child to us, and you know that. We would be elated to see her.”“But, Mother…”“ I will stay back, but you can go ahead.” My father said to us. Maybe they weren't saying what was necessary, it seemed to be hiding something, and it got me curious as to what it was, but perhaps that could come in later. “Sooo, let's go.” We hopped into the car with everyone getting in with me. Well, it felt odd, but could be I needed to proceed without complaining about anything because what was the need? All that mattered was the fact that I was going to see

If there was anything Darren was sure about, it was the fact that he didn't want Emily, and when the beta had walked in, demanding to have a word with him, he had let him do so. He was stressed as he couldn't find a purpose anymore. He thought he had one, but with all that was happening, he knew that he didn't. He didn't care that much anyway what it was that would happen as long as it led to him being with Lina. She filled his senses, her scent in his wake. He needed something better than what was going on to get her out, but that also wasn't working. No matter how hard he tried, he always fell back to where he had started. His mother was worried, seeing how he kept acting out, as this wasn't the one she had always come to know. She didn't want to believe that he had changed this much because of Lina. How was that even possible? “ Yes, what is it?” Darren turned to the beta. “There will be a meeting where you will be told to come and talk about what exactly happened last night.

Lina’s POV My body ached, and when I tried to move a muscle, it worsened, making me draw in a breath. I flicked my eyes open as I tried to take in the surroundings close to me before it came rushing in. “Where am I?” Everything was hazy, and when I tried to think about where I was, it just wouldn't click, as the surroundings were ones I wasn't used to. I ran my hand on the bed I was on, searching for my phone, but it was nowhere to be found as well. My heart plopped so fast before I shook my head, trying to get whatever ill thoughts I was having out. Forcing myself up from the bed I was lying down on, my eyes searched everywhere when it came in bits. I had been home trying to get ready for the party where I was to get Josh announced as my mate. The gown was lying on the bed, one that was going to match with the suit he would have on. He has told me that, and I needed something to wear, so I had opted for it, so what had happened? My throat parched while I tried to think forward
