Chapter 17

RHYS’ POV At first, I thought Pamela was joking, but even though she had a smile on her face, I could tell that she was dead serious. My heart began to beat very fast, and it took a while before I was able to get a grip on myself. The envelope was still in my hand, unopened. “Why are you telling me that you are pregnant? Do I look like a Doctor?”“Don’t try to be funny, Rhys. Look at the letter in the envelope. You are the father of the child.” I didn’t bother to open the envelope. She spoke as though the letter was going to prove anything, but that could have been some fake hospital result and anyone could do that. “That’s not possible! I can’t be the father of your baby!” I grunted in annoyance, clenching my fists while I glared at her. Pamela was about to ruin things just the moment they started getting better. I didn’t know how I got myself involved with a psycho like her, but I guess I was paying the price for my frolicking nature. “You need to leave, Pamala. I don’t need

Chapter 18

THELMA’S POV Rhys was acting really strange since I met him outside the house. How completely avoided having any kind of eye contact with me, and I could tell that he was hiding something from me. I knew that I wasn’t certain, but I heard a female voice outside, and that made me hurry to the door shortly before he came in. “Rhys?” I called him after he gave me the cup of coffee he made, but he refused to answer me, drifted away by his thoughts.“Rhys!” I called him for the second time, and he managed to give me a response after he came back to reality. “Are you okay? Something seems to be bothering you.” “No! I mean, yes! I am very fine!” He wasn’t sure of what he was supposed to say to me, and at that time, I could see that he was very nervous. “Don’t you like it?” He asked when he saw my face after I had tasted the coffee he made. “It’s too bitter, Rhys.” I complained, handing over the cup to him. “I am so sorry about that. I will just add some sugar.” He grabbed the cup fro

Chapter 19

THELMA’S POV Sage’a demand was almost impossible for me to do, considering the fact that it was on a Saturday, and I had already made up my mind that I was going to rest that day. He was persistent with pleading, and even promised to do anything I wanted if I could do what he demanded from me. That was a perfect opportunity for me to get what I wanted, and I wasn’t going to take it for granted. “Are you sure about this, Sage? You will do whatever I want?” I asked just to be sure, but it took him a while before he gave me a response. “Sure! Whatever you want, Thelma! Just do this for me! I mean, for the sake of the Company!”“Good.” I nodded in satisfaction while I thought of the best way to make my demands when the time was right. “Does this mean that you will come?” “I will with you shortly.” I ended the call and went in to find something suitable to wear. Luckily, I still had some new clothes that I had not worn still hanging in my wardrobe. Since it wasn’t something very off

Chapter 20

THELMA’S POV Brian was very excited that I had agreed to go with him as if I was left with any other choice. But none of his attempts to prove to me that he was a gentleman worked. I could see right through his smiles, and I knew that he was definitely no good for any woman, not to talk of me. His entire existence was reeking of arrogance and pride, and he couldn’t even help himself. I thought about several ways to escape from him, but each time I remembered what was at stake, I grunted in annoyance. “I am so glad that you agreed to go out with me, Thelma. I promise that we will have a lot of fun! I am super rich, as you can see! I am so excited!”“Yeah. Like I had any choice.” I whispered. “Did you say something?” Brian asked while he was still driving, and I had to lie to cover up my irritation. “I said I am happy that we're going out with you as well.” “Really?!” He waited to hear more, but I was done talking. I couldn’t say any other word that I didn’t mean. I was just hop

Chapter 21

THELMA’S POV Before he reluctantly left with the remaining ego in him, Brian gave me a look that indicated that he was upset with me. “I didn’t embarrass you,” I said with my eyes, but he had already turned and left, moving slowly as though his legs were about to fail him. I watched until he was almost out of sight before my attention was drawn by Alpha Kingston, who cleared his throat a few moments later. “Don’t worry about him. I am sure he will be fine.” Kingston clearly knew that he had humiliated his son before me, but he didn’t seem bothered about it. “This is not something I should be worried about. I am his guest; he brought me here only for him to be embarrassed on my account.” Kingston scoffed; a smirk appeared on his face afterward, and he glanced in the direction Brian went before he returned his gaze to me. “Feisty. I like.” He nodded in satisfaction. “You know…” He paused for a while, but since he had already gotten my attention, I waited to hear what he was about

Chapter 22

THELMA’S POV The sight of the Luna approaching forced me up from my seat. I didn’t even need anyone to tell me who she was. Kingston was right; she was very beautiful and sophisticated, but I doubted if she could be equal to me because I was way younger than she was. “My love! I am so glad that you are back! I was almost thinking that you were going to spend another day on your adventure.” “Never! I would never spend another day away from you, my love. I was getting bored with all the places we were going to.” The Luna moved to the Alpha, who got up from his seat and wrapped his arms around his wife. They kissed passionately as though I wasn’t right there in their presence. “I have missed you, Tara.” Kingston hugged his wife again before he turned to look at me. I was still standing right there, looking so small between the couple who were head over heels in love with each other. “Who is this lovely lady we have here?” Tara asked, staring at me with so much curiosity, but ther
