Chapter Twenty-one.

“Lyra, why are you acting this way?” My mom asked and I sighed, frustrated at how everything was turning out.“Mom, this was supposed to be a daughter and mother vacation. I don’t see why the Alpha of your pack is here.”“Alpha Kade is your Alpha too. And, he is just not your Alpha, he is a childhood friend. Why are you acting like Kade is Conan?”Because he kind of is. But, since I could not tell my mom that, I just looked away. “Mom, I have been standing for hours. I just want to get back to my room and sleep. Just leave me be. Maybe we will talk about everything in the morning, but for now, I need to sleep.”We were not talking about anything the next morning. If anything, I was going to make sure I avoided the topic. There was nothing to talk about.My mom said nothing and I took it as my cue to leave. Without wasting time, I was in my room already. I took a deep breath and then shook my head. I was going to stay here for a long period of time. “Yayyy,” I whispered sarcastically

Chapter Twenty-two.

KADE’s POVI bit my lower lip as soon as I said the word, future wife. Lyra did not look pleased at me one bit. She wrinkled her nose and walked away, but there was a time a wide smile would have appeared on her face. I sighed and looked at the kitchen area. The food that I had prepared was still there. Untouched. With a sad face, I walked over and decided to take a bite from what I had prepared. I nodded at the first bite. I had undead improved. Yesterday, even Lyra mom had commended how much my culinary skills had improved over the past few days.It was all thanks to the cooking videos I was watching so I would be able to impress Lyra, but sadly she would not even try the food. Just like she refused to give us a chance again. Maybe I was approaching things the wrong way again. Maybe I should not have pursued her too hard. Lyra’s mom came down to the living room from her room. “My personal chef, what do we have today?” I smiled at her question. She joined me in the kitchen, took a

“Mom, I need to go to my room now and rest. I’ve had a long day,” Lyra said and without waiting for a reply, she. rushed upstairs to her room. Her mother and I watched her leave and when she was no longer in sight, Lyra’s mother turned to me, expecting me to say something but I said nothing. What could I have said. That her daughter and I were once a thing but that I denied her because I did not want to hurt Tim.Well, that was all I had to say but for some reason, I could not open my mouth to utter the words. Lyra’s mom took a double take at me and turned away from me and leave. “I hope you and Lyra figure things out so you both can go back to being friends,” she said and then left.I took a deep breath. It was the aim right now, but with how Lyra was acting, it seemed almost impossible. “You just have to keep trying, Thor,” I mumbled to myself. The next morning, I got out of my bed as early as 4am to make Lyra’s favorite dish with the hope that she would finally agree to taste my

Chapter Twenty-four.

The drive to the mall felt awkward. Lyra was on her phone the whole time and from time to time, I just stole glances of her. It felt good being so close to her though so I took that as win two.Noticing how hard it was to keep her hair in place as it kept on falling on her face, I took out a scrunchi from the hfgkvchn and gave it to her. Lyra stared at me blankly. She was both confused and shocked. “I was at the resort park the other day. I saw you struggling to keep your hair in place. So, when I saw someone selling scrunchies, I decided to get one and keep in this car. Perhaps, we might have a chance to go somewhere to go together and you might need one. I had no idea it would be this soon.”She took the scrunchie from me. “Thanks.”I smiled. Another win. She said something positive to me. “You are highly welcomed.” I bit my lower lip as soon as the word came out of my mouth. I was being very formal. “What are you doing at the park?”She narrowed her eyes. “Were you following me

Chapter Twenty-five.

LYRA’s POV“How was shopping with Kade?” my mom asked and I frowned. How was she expecting it to be? Her question confirmed that she was probably trying to match make Kade and I. I rolled my eyes. There was no need to do so, because I had expired that option with Kade and have seen how much it was not a good idea to do so. “It was okay. Just normal shopping. Why are you asking?”She shook her head. “Nothing. I was just hoping the both of you did not have a fight or rather that you did not pick a fight with him, because you are always the one trying to fight him.”“Mom, that’s not true. I just fell that he should go back to the pack and rule as Alpha and not stay here to ruin her mother-daughter vacation. Because of him, it does not feel like one.”Plus, my mom had taken it upon herself to enjoy the resort activities without me. She shrugged. “He has been an Alpha for a long time now. This is a well deserved break. “Well, he should take the break some other time and place and not di

Chapter Twenty-six.

That night, sleeping was hard. I kept on wondering if I was being too hard on Kade. People made mistakes, right? And, if they show remorse for their mistakes, wasn’t the right thing to do forgiving them?If it was any other person maybe I would have forgiven him, but at the time I got hurt by Kade, I had expected more from me. It was hard to believe that he would deny me the way he did. Looking back, when Kade and I started dating, he did get different. He was no longer caring, he gave me looks of disgust whenever he could and he no longer looked out for me. It was a hard pill to swallow but it did feel like Kade had fallen out of love with me. It was why I did not want him to get close again despite how sweet he seemed to be now. I had always known Kade to be a sweet person. It was why I liked him in the first place. All that sweetness disappeared after he realized that I liked him. If I got close again, what were the odds that he won’t disappear again with time?When I finally went

Chapter Twenty-seven.

I woke up to the soft hum of the resort. Sunlight streamed through the curtains, painting the room in gold. For a moment, I lay there, letting myself enjoy the quiet, until I realized the resort was alive with movement. It was the first time it was feeling this way in days. I picked up my phone and the first thing I received was a message from the resort management. The resort was finally open and whoever wanted to leave could now leave.I heaved a sigh of relief.Finally. The timing was good.The first thing I noticed was the absence of Kade. I sat up, blinking. He wasn’t on the floor like the night before, and his side of the balcony was empty. A strange emptiness settled in my chest, half relief, half… something I couldn’t name.I found him later in the lobby, speaking quietly with one of the resort managers. The moment he saw me, he straightened.“Good morning,” he said. His voice carried that calm, steady tone I’d hated and missed in equal measure.“Morning,” I replied.“You’re

Chapter Twenty-eight.

Kade’s POVThe car rolled slowly toward the resort gate. I watched the palm trees slide past the window, their shadows stretching long on the road. Everything looked calm. Too calm.This was how it should be, I told myself. Lyra deserved peace. Not me hovering around like a bad memory that refused to die.I leaned my head back against the seat and closed my eyes. I had hurt her enough already. Showing up here, uninvited, pretending I was doing this for closure when I really just wanted another chance was a very selfish thing to do.She came here to heal, I should have let her do so. I should have let her breathe.Beside me, the resort manager cleared his throat. “So,” he said, glancing at me through the rearview mirror, “did you get your girl?”I opened my eyes. “No.”He chuckled. “Ah. That bad, huh?”“She was never mine to get,” I replied quietly. “I lost her a long time ago and now, I tried having my cake after eating it.”The manager sighed. “Well, at least things went smoothly. No

Chapter Twenty-nine.

Lyra’s POVThe first thing I noticed when I woke up was the smell. The smell was too clean. Too clean. Like disinfectant and cold air.The second thing I noticed was Kade.He was sitting beside my hospital bed, elbows on his knees, hands clasped together like he was afraid they might shake if he let go. His head was bowed. He looked tired and old. Not like the Alpha everyone feared, but like a man who had spent the whole night blaming himself.For a moment, I just watched him.My body felt heavy and my head was hurting me. My throat felt dry too, but luckily I was alive and safe.When I shifted slightly, his head snapped up.“Lyra,” he said immediately, standing. “You’re awake.”I nodded slowly. “Where am I?”“The hospital,” he replied gently. “You’re okay. The doctor said the drug didn’t stay long in your system. You’ll be fine.”Drugs? What drug? Then it dawned on me. Everything that had happened came back to me.The memory made my stomach twist. It was hard to believe that Dan would

Chapter Thirty.

Kade’s POVThe room felt too quiet.I sat on the edge of my bed, elbows on my knees, staring at nothing. The curtains were half-drawn, letting in dull afternoon light that made everything look tired. That was how I felt too. I did not just feel tired, I felt empty.Leaving Lyra at the hospital was one of the hardest things I had done. Walking away when every part of me wanted to stay felt like punishment. But I told myself it was necessary. She needed space. She needed peace. And I had already taken too much from her.Still, knowing that didn’t stop the ache.A knock came on the door.“Come in,” I muttered, knowing fully well that it was my mother at the door. The door opened and my mother walked in like she owned the place which, in a way, she did. Selene always carried herself like that. Tall, elegant, composed. Even her disappointment looked graceful.She took one look at my face and sighed. “So this is how you plan to spend your day? Sulking?”“I’m not sulking,” I said without loo
