บททั้งหมดของ Mated to the Alpha Twins: บทที่ 21 - บทที่ 30

KEYLA “Don't fall for his tricks, Keyla. Don't you dare fall for his tricks. He's only lying to you, there's no way he's suddenly changed overnight, Maybe Hunter threatened him.” We arrived at a gorgeous park. I was in awe, when he said he wanted us to go out on a date, the last thing I would've had in mind was amusement. I just thought it'd be a boring dinner with me ignoring him most of the time but I guess I was wrong. “So?” I began a conversation. “What are we doing here?” I asked. He smirked. “We're on our date,” he answered. I stared at him like he's grown two horns. “When you said you wanted us to go on a date, this is not exactly how I pictured it to get like, you know?” The disappointment on his face was hard to miss. I never meant to make him feel bad and since when did the big bad wolf like getting all soft on me—- And the worst part? I liked that he was getting all soft on me. I liked it very much. “I just thought you won't like the restaurant kind of date and the p

KEYLA I woke up with a loud groan, pulling the blanket over my head. “No, no, no…” I whispered to myself. I couldn’t believe last night. Did it really happen? Was it just a dream? I peeked out from under the blanket, staring at the ceiling. Hunter and Chase were in my house last night. Sitting at the dinner table. Laughing. Talking. Acting like they owned the place. Acting like… they were part of the family already. And Aunt Oakley? Oh, she was the worst. She was smiling and treating them like they were her future sons-in-law. Like I was already married or something. I groaned again, rolling over and burying my face in the pillow. “Ugh! I haven’t even forgiven them yet!” I mumbled into the pillow. “Marriage? Please!” My cheeks felt hot just thinking about it. Why did they have to show up? Why couldn’t they just leave me alone? But no, they were both there. Smiling and acting like they belonged. Finally, after lying in bed for what felt like forever, I forced myself to get up.

KEYLA My body ached after a long day of work. Brad made sure to give me a lot of work because there was a promotion on ground and I wanted to be the one to get it so I was putting up with all of these to please him and I prayed he considered me. The bus was approaching me and I checked my bag to look for my bus card and also money. But I couldn't find my card in my bag and without it, I wouldn't be able to take the bus plus the cab was very expensive and I didn't have any spare change to add to my bus money to afford a cab. I knew I shouldn't have bought those tacos at the canteen earlier today but they were so tempting and I did my maths without realizing that I was without my bus card. I started walking, making my way to the best subway which would take me more than ten minutes to get to. It was the only hope of getting home. A black car pulled up next to me on the road, but I ignored it, not thinking much of it until I heard the passengers' voice. “Keyla.” I turned to see Ch

KEYLA I blinked my eyes open slowly. The room was quiet, soft morning light peeking through the curtains. For a second, I forgot where I was… then I felt something warm around me. My heart jumped. Hunter. He was lying beside me, one arm loosely around my waist, his face so close to mine and I froze. Oh my God. We were cuddling. Like, full-on cuddle mode. I looked at him. His eyes were still closed, and his breathing was calm, chest rising and falling gently. He looked peaceful. And annoyingly good-looking. His messy dark hair. His jawline. Those lashes that were way too long for a guy. I sighed. Last night… we talked so much. About random stuff. Funny stuff. Sad stuff. Deep stuff. We’d laughed. We’d argued over who the best Marvel character was. We even got into a weird convo about whether cereal was soup. It didn’t feel like flirting. It felt like… comfort. I wasn’t sure when we fell asleep. But now he was here, on my bed. In my room. In my house. And I didn’t hate it.

KEYLA I sat at my desk, staring at the blinking cursor on my screen, but my head was somewhere else. No matter how hard I tried to focus on work, Hunter kept popping into my mind. His smile, his laugh, the way he held me like I meant something to him. I didn’t know what that night did to him, but for me… everything had changed. It wasn’t just a random kiss or cuddling anymore. The mate bond was so strong now. I could feel it even when he wasn’t near me. It felt like something inside me was pulling me toward him every second, like I wasn’t whole unless he was around. Brad was giving me work like I was some kind of robot though. I had barely finished the report he asked for earlier when he dropped another one on my table with a grin on his face. “Think you can get this done before lunch ends?” he asked, acting all nice and chill like always, but I could tell he was trying to stress me out just a little. Maybe it was because I skipped work the other day. Or maybe Chase said something
