Chapter 76
Ever since I was told my mate was dead. That had been the reason why I flirt around so much. Because then I’d thought there was no one to be my mate since she was already dead not until I found out later that she was alive when I met at Novak forest with the intent to have her killed. Everyone thought I would get married to her since I’d no mate and I could marry anyone. And we were so close back then.
Should I go back and lay on the bed? I haven’t woken up yet. And faked dead. That would be stupid. But still, I wanted to run from this moment.
“He’s your son, Alpha.” The tension in the air was acute, everyone was silent and it was just the stiff air that was stuck in our lungs:
Creamy came to my side and broke the silence. When he took a good look at the woman who came in.
“Blonde bitch Selina!”
He then recognized her and even remembered her name because I’d forgotten it. I know we’d had a thing going on for a long time before I left moonlight pack that night. And I did try to clear the air between us after we return from the hunt of the killer wolf and I’d known the killer wolf was my mate but I didn’t get to do that.
She’d changed unlike when she was the prettiest in the pack. She’d lost a lot of weight, her face wasn’t as chubby as it used to be, and her hair wasn’t blonde anymore.
How could I’ve remembered when I’d only known her as a blonde and pretty face?
She wasn’t that anymore. The only pretty one now is my mate.
“Go, meet you, daddy.”
The little boy didn’t move from the spot he was and I didn’t even try to make him come to me. His eyes were just like mine, but still, I didn’t wanna believe it. That I had a son, I thought my first child would be from Amaia but then I’ve been all wrong.
“Where have you been hiding? You heard the alpha is awake and you run over here.”
“Not that Creamy, Zane was sick from the curse. I didn’t want to lose him and went to the seer. He knows everything. And this baby is Zyair’s.”
“How can we be so much of it.”
“He’s a year and seven months old. That I wanted to tell Zyair that night but he came up with an attitude and push me away. The night he was framed. And then everything else happened.”
“You met him that night?”
“I did. I didn’t know he’d his mate. Everyone thought she was dead. I didn’t know until you came back and made an announcement about it. I wouldn’t have known. I kept the baby because it was Zyair’s heir.”
“Or you were waiting for him to come to get you.”
“I did wait.”
“And this is your plan.”
“Didn’t go so well.”
“So what, You’re gonna come in here.”
“I might be a second choice just in case something happened..”
I pulled Creamy away because he was about to hit her because of what she said, she didn’t even hide it, she wanted Amaia dead. He was well aware of how Selina was. And what she can do.
“How can I be sure he’s my son?”
“He’s your son alpha, accept him.”
“Seer!” I growled. His head bowed.
“I’ve seen it Alpha. And you know I’m not a man that lies. If I do, I won’t be as pure as I’m. And you know, deep down that this son is yours.”
If it hadn’t all happened, I would’ve probably been the happiest, grabbed her, and kissed her all over. I knew the possibility of her getting pregnant was high, we’d sex, damn! lot of it. Though she wasn’t practically the only one. But the one I stayed longer with.
This was a nightmare I didn’t even picture. My fear was explaining to Amaia that I’ve got a son.
Fuck!
I don’t even know how to say it or where to start. Or try to imagine what her reactions would be and how she would end up crying. That was the moment I was scared of, Creamy thought telling her that her father was dead was the thing he dread the most, what about mine? Now we both had something to tell her.
“I’m gonna stay here with my son.”
“You can’t stay here.” I made my words plain simple.
“You want to come to me.”
“He would be fine without you.”
“Zane can’t stay without me.”
“I did stay alone without a mother, I lived. I didn’t die. He would cry sure, he won’t die from it. If you can’t, then take your son and leave.”
“You can’t be fucking serious Zyair!”
“Don’t address me by my name!” I snarled at her with my jaw clenched.
“He’s your son! You’re gonna throw us out, how can we be sure cruel.”
“I’ll keep him but not you.”
She just wants to force herself in here, I can’t have her in the pack house. It would be uncomfortable.
“I don’t have anywhere else to go.” She broke down, falling to her knees taking me by surprise. Why didn’t I expect it? I was the one who talked about some dramatic moments and this was one in front of me.
“The curse took everything from us. I’m left with nothing. If you sent us out, we would die from cold. Please Alpha. Accept us please.”
I paced around with my shaking fist. I didn’t want to make a razz discussion or put myself in some kind of a predicament I won’t be able to get out of.
“Please..”
I forced a smile, walking back to the bed. At this point, everyone was looking up to me. Waiting to hear what decisions I was gonna make.
“What do you’ve to say alpha, would you accept them or not?”
I lift my eyes, staring at the Seer.
I couldn’t send them away, I couldn’t do that. And I don’t want young Zane to go through what I went through. I wasn’t privileged to have one but he does and I shouldn’t take that away from him.
“I’ll accept them.” I turned to Creamy, he was already standing beside me.
“..prepare a room for them.”
