บททั้งหมดของ The Alpha's Rogue Bride: บทที่ 181 - บทที่ 190

CHAPTER 181~KIM~It had been a couple of days since my birthday celebration and everyone went about their business, offering me no explanations whatsoever as to any of the things that were happening.I saw Elena less and less, even though she was in charge of the celebration.Every time I ran into her, she would complain that all her time was going into the party planning.Richard tried to be as present as possible, but it was nothing close to a few weeks ago.He managed to share the chaos with Logan and Jerry to me and also shared that they were trying to get in touch with Jerry, but that was proving abortive.They managed to convince Logan that he should get some percentage; they just needed to communicate with Jerry to decide on something that worked for both parties.Sam had gotten a lot quieter and I was beginning to feel like an outsider in my home. She spent most of her time with Elena, planning the party and whenever I asked to get in, they emphasized how much rest I needed a

CHAPTER 183~KIM~The party was still going on when I opened my eyes a couple of hours later and I knew because I could hear the music and merriment from Richard’s room where I was left.Zahra and Tresna were sleeping sweetly beside me and that was all that mattered.They had been presented to the pack for the party to still be on and even though the day did not go as it was ideally planned, it was safe to say in the end that all parties were happy.I pulled my kids into a cuddle and placed random kisses on their body in intervals of a few seconds.No one explained enough to prepare you for the emotions that fill you when you’re launched into motherhood.Looking at them, holding them; it was like having my whole heart in my arms. It was both amazing and scary.I tried to wait it out, but the party was clearly not ending anytime soon. They wouldn’t know I was awake already.Regaining consciousness after the power sap was one thing, but I was completely void of any energy and I was lite

CHAPTER 185~Richard~“You must be out of your mind,”I didn’t know when the words left my mouth, but I meant every word.A positive pregnancy test.Elena was all shades of dramatic and all shades of manipulative, but this was way more than I ever imagined she would do, especially since we were hoping that part of her was now behind her.“Richard, in front of everyone here, do you deny spending the night in my room, two weeks ago?” she probed.All eyes were cast on me, and it was a moment when I wished I could deny what she just said, but not only was I there, I woke up stack naked. We were both naked.“Alpha Fell?” the chief council man called.My silence was enough for both of them.“Why are you doing this?” I said to Elena in a weak voice.“I don’t know what you think I’m doing, Richard. I only don’t want your royal seed to grow up as a bastard. You will be struck dead if that happens. I am fully aware you have your heir.”I stormed out of the meeting room. I could not take another

CHAPTER 187~KIM~Of course, it was a ninety-nine-point nine percent match.‘Why else would Elena consent to a paternity test.’She was now two months pregnant and it was confirmed that Richard was the father of her child.I was the first to leave the premises and I was in regret that I went there in the first place.Since everyone was still there, eating and drinking from the mini-party Elena threw, I was the first to get back to the mansion.I retreated into Catherine’s room and as soon as my back hit the bed, tears flowed down my cheeks.Zahra and Tresna were really the goddess’ gifts to me. They were wide awake, but made no sounds, giving me room to mourn and grieve and just exist in whatever time and space I was able to create.A soft knock landed on the door hours later.“Come in!” I yelled, expecting it to be Sam that came to help with the kids and also bring me something to it, but when the door was pushed, it wasn’t Sam behind the door.“Elena!” I jumped out of bed and pushed

CHAPTER 189~KIM~“You have to be kidding me! There is no way this is acceptable.”I furiously paced Richard’s room from one end to the other. All the space in the room did not seem to contain how aggravated I was.“You really need to calm down. We don’t want you triggering…”“Who cares about any triggers, Richard? Who cares?” I yelled in his face. This topic was supposed to be far behind us, but at least now I knew what she meant when she said “Unless…of course…”“Just when you think you know what she’s capable of, she pulls a rabbit out of her hat. It’s always something with Elena, always something! And now she wants me subjecting my three-month olds to unnecessary…”“Kim,” Richard called calmly, “they don’t have to be subjected to being poked with needles. We can take their hair sample, or even a cheek swab. We can…”“You are unbelievable!” I screamed. “Nobody will take even as much as the carbon dioxide they exhale just to prove a point. Nobody!”With that, I stormed out of his
