Lahat ng Kabanata ng HIS RELUCTANT MATE: Kabanata 201 - Kabanata 210

JAREDSterly and I said no words to each other as we dried our hair. After that, we both slept in his bed. I rested my head on Sterly's chest with my heavy heart still pressing down on me. I knew I had disappointed Sterly this time, and perhaps he wouldn't easily forgive me. He had never been mad at me. Even though we'd known each other for more than a year, Sterly had never shown his anger toward me. He'd always indulged me in whatever I did, but tonight, I finally broke that line. I made him mad at me...His unsteady heartbeat continued pushing against my cheek. I could tell he wasn't comfortable either. Sterly wasn't happy...A low sigh escaped my lips as I raised my head and looked at his face. "Sterly, will you continue being mad at me?" I asked in a low voice. Sterly's eyes remained closed. "If you don't kiss me, I will cry," I mumbled. Sterly's eyelashes fluttered, and his eyes opened. Our eyes immediately met. Seeing that, I blinked, and tears appeared in my eye

JAREDSterly's words made my heart flutter, and with it was a hint of shyness. I looked into his eyes and gently bit my lower lip. "Husband," I whispered. Sterly's fingers tightened around my waist, and his body abruptly moved closer, staying between my legs. "Do you need me right here?" He asked. Sterly's eyes glinted with intense desire and love. The intensity made me unable to control my heart as it raced dangerously. I wrapped my arms around his neck and captured his lips with mine. Instead of replying, why not let him see my sincerity instead?I needed him. Right here. Right now. Raw and hard. Sterly responded, taking charge as he dominated my mouth and kissed me deeply. Moans escaped my throat as his hands explored my body, leaving nowhere untouched. Minutes went by, and our clothes were all over the ground. Sterly's fingers picked my nipples, playing with them as he sucked on my earlobe. My body had turned limp in his embrace. Shameless moans escaped my lips. Swee

JAREDShawn, Cindy, Stephen, and I spent the whole afternoon in the hospital, chatting and playing games. Cindy left for an hour to bathe and change. When she returned, she brought different things for us to play with. The day was fun as we all laughed endlessly. Even Shawn seemed to let go of everything as he laughed happily. But deep down in my heart, worries still lingered. My parents hadn't returned the call and it had been a few hours already. I stared out the window and saw that the sky was getting dark. It was past 5 in the afternoon. I sighed wearily. "Stephen, how's Jarelle's health?" I asked, trying to distract myself from the depressing thoughts. Stephen dropped the cards in his hand and picked up his phone. "Ryan told me she was sleeping when he called me an hour ago.""Let's see if she's awake now." He said as he dialed Ryan's line. After a few rings, the call was answered. "Baby," Ryan's voice rang through the phone. "Ryan, how's Jarelle?" Stephen asked.

JAREDI stared at the three men standing at the center of the visiting room, and my face paled. "Dad, what's going on?" I asked in a whisper. How could my father be with Kane?Why did they look to have known each other for a long time?Kane chuckled when he saw my expression. He turned to my father and bowed gently. "Father, I will be a good son-in-law to you after leaving here." He said solemnly. My father nodded, the smile on his face turning sly. A gasp escaped my throat. I shook my head. This wasn't real. My father wouldn't do this. Kane gestured to the man beside my father and bowed again. "Uncle, Mr. Lucas will do everything he promised after I mark my omega.""You should be prepared to experience double promotions." He said with a smile. The man waved his hand and laughed. My father joined in the laughter. "I trust Mr. Lucas. He will surely do as he promised." He said. My ears drummed. My stomach lurched painfully as I staggered backward and almost lost my footing.

STERLY "So, they've always been deceiving Jared?" I asked as my voice turned colder in the room. Nick nodded, sighing heavily. "Nate sent them into Mr. Jared's life. He knew they didn't want Mr. Jared." He explained. My eyes darkened. From the beginning, it seemed I had always been Jared's problem. From making him a substitute to pushing him into a warfare, he shouldn't have ever experienced___ Everything was my fault. I pinched my brows as I picked up the phone Nick handed over to me. On the screen was the report the investigators sent about Jared's parents, Mia and Ray. The report stated that Mia and Ray had never lost Jared. Instead, they intentionally let him go those years ago. They were young, and they saw the young Jared as a burden to them. They decided to leave him behind in the mall and ran out of the country. A few months ago, Nate approached them and asked them to return to Jared's life. They got money and returned to play with Jared's feelings while planning t
