"I, Peter Rollins, future alpha of Silver Moon, reject you Malisa Benson as my mate and future Luna. You aren't fit to lead the pack." <br /> He pauses and continues with "You should just do us all a favor and off yourself. No one will want you and no human would want a freak show like you."<br /> "Okay. I accept your rejection Peter Rollins," I say with more strength than he thought I would have.<br /> I feel the bond weaken and I put my hand on my chest to try to dull the pain. But I won't show him I feel it. Peter just looks at me with a smile on his face. My pain makes him happy. Hmm.. we'll get ready for pain Mr. Rollins.<br /> ————————<br /> "Daddy! What's happening?" I ask as I hug him. My mom touches my head and I realize that she has been crying. "Mommy what's wrong?"<br /> "Honey, we have to send you away." Wait what? What does she mean send me away?<br /> "No! Mommy I don't want to leave you and daddy!" I say as I hug her. Please let this be a dream. <br /> My dad then kneels down next to us and says "Little star, we don't want you to go but there are bad men that want to take you away from us. We need you to be safe. You are the future to the werewolf race and are our greatest treasure."<br /> "I don't want to leave you and momma. I can fight along side you. Please don't send me away," I cry. <br /> Anita comes over with a cloak and masking spray him her hand. I realized that she also is wearing a cloak with a bag on her side. Oh my goddess! This is actually happening.<br /> "We need you to go with Anita, little star. She will protect you and also be our contact to you until you get your wolf," My father hugs me and so does mom in a family group hug. <br /> "Dad just linked me and said that a few slipped past him. We have to act fast!" Ollie says from the window. He walks to the wall on the other side of the room and opens a secret door.<br /> "Come with me princess. We have to go now!" Anita starts to pull me to the hidden door as mom puts my cloak on me and sprays the masking spray. She then gives me a leather book as we get close to the passage. <br /> "I love you both. I will be back and take revenge on the person doing this. I will become big and strong for you!" I tell my parents as I'm pulled into the passageway. <br /> "We love you too little star. Stay safe and don't give Anita any trouble. Remember you are our greatest treasure," My dad says as the door shuts leaving Anita and me in the dark. Anita pulls out a flashlight and we start to run down the passageway. <br /> We walk for about 30 minutes until we come to a door. Anita opens the door and we step out to afield that has a car parked in a tent that blends in. As we jump in the car Anita throws the bag in the back before getting in the driver seat.<br /> "Where are we going Anita?" I ask as she speeds down a dirt road. <br /> "We are going to a friend of mine that is an alpha. He already knows to expect us. We will be safe there under his protection," Anita tells me as she turns onto a paved road. As we get further and further away from my parents I feel a sense of loss and sadness. Why me? I'm nothing special other than the next in line for the throne. Only people in the kingdom knew of me but never actually had seen me. Then it hit me. They didn't want to kidnap me to get money or anything else. They wanted me dead. I'm only 6! <br /> Anita pulls out her phone and dials a number. The ringing comes out of the car speakers. My heart started to beat loudly as we waited for the other end to be picked up. After the fourth ring a deep sleepy voice answered.<br /> "Hello Anita! What is the matter?" The voice said sounding half asleep.<br /> "Fredrick! It happened tonight. We escaped with no issue but we still have the 8 hour drive to you that we have to conquer first," Anita said. She was looking straight ahead and was frequently looking behind us.<br /> "WHAT? Are you both okay? Do I need to send my warriors to meet you half way?" Now Alpha Fredrick sound wide awake. <br /> "If you would like to I'm not stopping you. Just make sure they follow at a distance so if anyone is following us, it doesn't look suspicious," Anita turns us onto a highway by the looks of it.<br /> "Will do. Are you in the car we planned on you using?" The alpha asked.<br /> "Yes we are," Anita says." Just as planned. We are also taking the secondary route because there seems to be a traitor in the castle. The only ones that know of this route are you, me, and Maverick. We are actually picking him upon the way."<br /> "Okay Anita. My guys just left and they are in a black Denali. They will flash their lights twice like the humans do to warn of a cop. I already have a house set up for you all. Be careful and I'll greet you when you get here," Alpha Fredrick says. The call drops and it's silent in the car once more. Maverick is Anita's mate and is a warrior in the Royal Army. <br /> "Anita, will I see my parents again?" I whispered scared to know her answer. Please say yes, please say yes. <br /> "Yes, your highness, you will get to see them again. However you won't get to until you are 18.Then you will be able to meet your mate and go back. If you don't meet him, we will still be able to go back but it will have to be under the impression you are a distant relative wanting to join the Royal Army. But don't worry my dear. I will be with you every step of the way," Anita says glancing over at me. 12 years is what I have to wait to get to see my parents again. This will be a long 12years.<br /> We drive for about 3 hours then stop for gas. As Anita fills the car up, I see Maverick walk out from the store. I quickly jump in the back so that the adults have the front. He walks to Anita and gives her a hug that you can tell just by seeing it he was happy she was okay. They get in the car and Maverick starts driving the rest of the way. <br /> "Princess, I want to tell you how we have to be at Fredricks pack. His pack is called Silver moon and he is the only one who knows who you are. The story we will go by is that you are our niece that came to live with us as a baby when your parents died in a rouge attack. The reason for us moving to Silver moon is our pack was attacked and we are the only survivors because we were on vacation. Absolutely no one is to know who you really are. Okay princess?" Maverick says from the front. <br /> "Yes Maverick, I mean Uncle Maverick, I understand." I lean back as I quietly go over it in my head. <br /> An hour later we see the Denali that Alpha Fredrick sent and it gets behind us about 200 yards back. I decide to try to get some sleep until we get there. It doesn't take long for me to fall asleep. <br /> Next thing I know, I am being shook awake by Anita. "Princess, we just passed the border of Silver Moon and will arrive in 10 minutes."<br /> I sit up and rub my eyes. We arrive in front of the pack house and I see a man standing in the door. He looks tall with brown hair and blue eyes. <br /> "Welcome to Silver Moon. We are glad to have you here," the man says. He gives me a slight bow when he looks at me. This must be Fredrick.<br /> "Long time no see Fredrick. It's good to see you under the unfortunate circumstances," Anita says.<br /> Not long after we are shown our house. It is a single story home with 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. It's cute and reminds me of all the stories of the white picket fence dream that most girls have.<br /> As I settle in my room, I think about my parents. Are they safe? I wish I could be back in their arms but I know I can't just yet. This is going to be a long 12 years.<br /> ——————————<br /> Mal POV<br /> -12years later<br /> Let me formally introduce myself. My name is Malisa but everyone calls me Mal. All the kids love it because of the Disney movie "Descendants". It also doesn't help I love purple and got purple highlights. I wear purple all the time not only because I love it but also for the pups. Today is my 18th birthday and I get to see if I can find my mate. It also means that I can go home now to my parents. Will they be proud of me?<br /> "Don't worry Mal. Even if we don't find our prince, we still can go home to mom and dad," Gwenivere says to me. Gwen is my wolf and I got her on my 10thbirthday. Alpha Fredrick let us go to the bunkers behind the packhouse for my shift. We did this because we didn't want anyone knowing who I actually am by seeing my wolf. She is pure white with bright yellow eyes. My eyes would be a dead giveaway due to only the royal family has yellow eyes. Everyone in the pack just thinks I'm wolf-less. With that comes being shunned and bullied. I mainly get shoved around and called names. Before I was 16 I was great friends other the alpha and beta kids. After I "didn't" shift, they turned on me. Oh how I wish they could know the truth.<br /> "You know we can't do that Mal. I wish so to so we can shut them up but we can't," Gwen tells me.<br /> "I know Gwen. It's just a wish," I say to her.<br /> "A very good wish. However, they will see soon enough that what they did was wrong and will be begging you for forgiveness," Gwen says. Good point. <br /> I roll myself out of bed and get ready for the day. I decide to wear a black tank top with a purple leather jacket over it. My pants are black leather pants paired with purple combat boots. I straighten my hair and apply a little makeup. Unlike most of the girls in the pack, I don't like a lot of makeup. The cake face is not for me. Aunt Anita says I have the "bad" look. <br /> "Sweetheart! Are you up?" Aunt Anita calls from down the hall. I walk out of my room to see her with her hands behind her back. Uh oh! What does she have?<br /> "Yes as you can see Aunt Anita. What is behind your back?" I ask with caution. We normally pull pranks on each other and sometimes it ends with one of us wearing food of some kind. One time I walked out the bathroom after a shower just to have flour dumped on me from a bucket above the door. I had to shower a second time and so did Maverick after I tackled him. <br /> "Just your birthday present," Aunt Anita says with a mischievous smile. Hmmm.. should I trust this or run? If it is a prank, I am already coming up with ideas for revenge. Hot pink dye in her shampoo since she has blonde hair and hates pink, squirrel in her room, or itching powder in her undies. That last one I could get Maverick also. <br /> Saint Anita pulls an envelope from behind her back and hands it to me. I slowly take it and cautiously open it hoping there isn't a spider in it. Last time that happened I ended up on a chandelier pulling a Sia. Thankfully there is only a piece of paper in it. Thank the goddess! When I unfold the paper, my eyes go wide. <br /> "No freaking way! You got me a travel size recording set up?" I ask loudly. I have always loved music. My songbook stays with me at all times. Another reason is that my mother gave it to me the day we had to flee the palace. I have a connection to music and feel all the emotions behind the notes.<br /> "Yes we did. It's Fredrick, Maverick, and my gift to you sweetheart. We knew you have been wanting one and have been saving up for it," aunt Anita says as she hugs me. <br /> "We can try the new song we are working on with it. I can't wait," Gwen says in my head. <br /> "You and me both sister!" After I say this I feel her move to the back of my mind to rest. She also does this to prevent herself from being detected by the other wolves. <br /> "Wait! Where's Uncle Maverick?" It was only now I realized he wasn't even on the house. He became a warrior to Silent Moon and does a border shift but that is in the afternoon. <br /> "He had to go to the packhouse to meet with Alpha Fredrick. Apparently a rogue got through last night near the pack house. They are interrogating him right now," she tells me. When she looks at my facial expression she immediately says "He wasn't here for you. Apparently he was trying to steal some food for his family." Whew!<br /> "Thank you so much for the amazing birthday present. I have to go meet up with Hannah and get to school. I love you," I say as I hug her. She has always been a second mother to me even before that fateful night. As long as I can remember I have loved her like she was family.<br /> I walk out of the house and head down the street. My best friend Hannah lives four houses down and is one of the only members of the pack that doesn't treat me like I'm lower than an omega. There is nothing wrong with omegas. I get along with all of them and they are nice. Other than them, Hannah and Bryce are the only friends I have. That's fine though because the number of friends isn't important. It's who is there for you and you can count on. <br /> As I near her house I hear the sound of a vehicle and shouting coming up from behind me. The voice alone tells me it's the jocks and among them is Peter. Peter is Alpha Fredricks' son and next in line for the title. He is about 6'4" and has his moms dirty blonde hair paired with green eyes. Luna Brittany is one of the sweetest people I know. When I heard "freak show" be shouted out I knew it was him. Hopefully today he won't do anything to bad. The truck speeds past me with more names being shouted out. I can't wait to leave this place.<br /> "Hey Mal! Was that the man-bimbo mobile?" Hannah asks as she walks off her front porch. <br /> "What gave it away?" I ask giggling.<br /> "The smell of skank in the air," she says. We look at each other and bust out laughing. What would I do without this girl? I'm going to try to take her and Bryce with me when I leave.<br /> "So are you excited to see if you can find your mate?" Hannah asks as we make our way to school.<br /> "Yes and no. I have a feeling that he will reject me as soon as he sees me. Especially if he is from this pack," I say. I'm not even sad about that possibility because of how everyone is here. Alpha Fredrick doesn't even know about it. If I tell him it would just make it worse. <br /> "Don't think like that hun! You never know. He may be head over heels for you as soon as he sees you," Hannah replies with a far off look. This girl is a hopeless romantic especially when it comes to mates. "By the way, happy birthday bish!"<br /> I laugh, "Thank you. Happy birthday as well Satine."<br /> When we reach the parking lot, the most intoxicating scent reaches my nose. It's a mixture of honeysuckle and rain. <br /> "That's our mate! Go find mate!" Gwen shouts as she is jumping around in excitement. <br /> I follow the scent and it leads me to the jocks. Oh great! Here we go. They turn when they hear me approaching but only one pair of eyes catch mine. Peter Rollins can't be my mate. He is my main tormentor. <br /> Gwen takes over and says "mate". I see everyone's shocked expression at what I said excluding Peter. Allison is hanging off his arm and glaring at me. Her and Peter have been dating for about a year now and helps him make my life terrible.<br /> "Follow me. We need to talk," Peter says and turns around heading to the trees. <br /> "But baby! You don't have to talk to the wolf-less giglet," Allison says in her nasally voice. Peter just looks at her and whispered something to her. Whatever it was made her smile.<br /> As I follow Peter to the trees, I think about what is going to happen. The moon goddess came to me in a dream not to long ago and told me that if my mate rejects me, all I have to say is "okay. I accept." With me going by Benson as my last name she told me she made it be acceptable to real the bond. The moon goddess doesn't just let anyone be mates to a royal. <br /> "Remember Mal. I'm with you every step of the way," Gwen reassures me. I'm glad I have her as my wolf. <br /> We get about 30 feet into the tires when Peter stops and turns towards me. The look on his face is anything but friendly.<br /> Peter looks at me with hate instead of affection. Not a big surprise there. The guy turned from the sweet boy I knew to a evil idiot. <br /> "Let's get this as over with," he says. "I, Peter Rollins, future alpha of Silver Moon, reject you. Malisa Benson as my mate and future Luna. You aren't fit to lead the pack let alone a team of omegas." He pauses and continues with "You should just do us all a favor and off yourself. No one will want you and no human would want a freak show like you."<br /> I feel the bond weaken and I put my hand on my chest to try to dull the pain. But I won't show him I feel it. Peter just looks at me with a smile on his face. My pain makes him happy. Hmm.. we'll get ready for pain Mr. Rollins.<br /> "Okay. I accept your rejection Peter Rollins," I say with more strength than he thought I would have. He instantly frowned and then doubled over clutching his chest. I hear footsteps running towards us as his friends come help their screaming friend. I look at Peter one more time before I take off home at supernatural speed. <br /> As soon as I walk in, Aunt Anita come out the kitchen looking concerned." Mal, why are you home so early?" <br /> "I met my mate," I say. Before I can continue she starts squealing.<br /> "Oh my gosh! Honey that is so great. I need to meet this lucky man. We can contact your parents and tell them that.." she starts gushing but I interrupt her.<br /> "He rejected me." As soon as I say this she's immediately stills and looks at me with disbelief. Five seconds later her face morphs into anger as her eyes glaze over indicating she was mind linking. About 2 minutes later, Uncle Maverick busts in the house followed by Alpha Fredrick. | LEARN_MORE | https://a.topicksapp.com/ad/dGlnZXJyZWFkZXIvMTMxNz | 108277385665157 | Picks001 | https://facebook.com/100094268485917 | 26 | 1 | 1,074,140,643,885,306 | 2024-03-25 02:00 | person_profile | eligible | 0 | 0 | NONE | 0 | 0 | 1 | 1 | Learn more | 0 | Picks001 | 120208120529720635 | a.topicksapp.com | NONE | video | https://a.topicksapp.com/ad/dGlnZXJyZWFkZXIvMTMxNzYzLzIwMjQwMzI1MTM0NTA1L3BhZ2U=?adid={{ad.id}} | 2024-03-25 00:50 | https://scontent-lga3-2.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t39.35426-6/433245780_853078466582601_3259131740322360428_n.jpg?stp=dst-jpg_s60x60&_nc_cat=104&ccb=1-7&_nc_sid=c53f8f&_nc_ohc=QvkLnIcqdPcAX-RweHr&_nc_ht=scontent-lga3-2.xx&oh=00_AfBXFIN8r98rHGDRGvm95egkkmryLtEfp0BPuZiPRotBMw&oe=660980A2 | person_profile | 0 | Picks001 | https://scontent-lga3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t39.35426-6/433120299_763512278821430_5484765996878470451_n.jpg?_nc_cat=106&ccb=1-7&_nc_sid=c53f8f&_nc_ohc=mHOgqltZluAAX_r9e_G&_nc_ht=scontent-lga3-1.xx&oh=00_AfDBFM5YEEaNec8pJVcLul223Lr55BmAZPWcSVaR3wYs1Q&oe=6608EEA9 | 0 | 3 | Picks001 | 0 | 0 | 2024-03-25 02:00 | View Edit Delete | |||||||||||||||||||||

No | 2024-03-27 06:19 | active | 341 | 0 | 787081319536544 | Alaric's One and Only Love | "She's back. I want a divorce. The house is yours." Two years later, he returned to that empty house, only to find his ex-wife's pregnancy diary.<br /> ---------------------<br /> Gandra.<br /> <br /> General Hospital.<br /> <br /> "Congratulations. You're pregnant. The baby is in good health."<br /> <br /> Victoria Selwyn's hands clenched around the report as she dazedly stared at the doctor.<br /> <br /> Pregnant? It was a happy surprise. She could not believe her ears.<br /> <br /> "Remember to come in for regular appointments. Where is the father? Call him in. I have some instructions for him."<br /> <br /> The doctor's words snapped her out of her thoughts. "My husband's not with me today," she replied with an awkward smile.<br /> <br /> "Honestly, even if he's busy, he should still be with his family," the doctor exclaimed.<br /> <br /> It was drizzling when she finally stepped out of the hospital. She stroked her abdomen.<br /> <br /> There is now a tiny life growing in there. A child that belongs to Alaric and me…<br /> <br /> Her phone buzzed. She pulled it out; it was a message from her husband, Alaric Cadogan.<br /> <br /> 'It's raining. Get an umbrella to this address.'<br /> <br /> She glanced at the address sent; it was L'Indigo Country Club.<br /> <br /> What was this place? He had a meeting today, right?<br /> <br /> Still, she did not question it too much and asked the Cadogans' family driver to send her to the country club.<br /> <br /> "You may head back first," she said to the driver upon arrival.<br /> <br /> "Do I not need to wait for you, Mrs. Cadogan?"<br /> <br /> She paused for a moment before shaking her head. "It's fine. I'll wait to head home with Alaric."<br /> <br /> Since she was here for him, she would head home with him.<br /> <br /> With that, Carter, the driver, soon drove off.<br /> <br /> The rain had started as a drizzle, but it was now a heavy storm.<br /> <br /> With the umbrella held over her head, she walked to the entrance of the country club.<br /> <br /> It was a luxuriously decorated golf club. She was stopped at the door.<br /> <br /> "I'm sorry, miss, but please show me your member card," the employee said.<br /> <br /> She took a moment to think about her next action before finally messaging Alaric.<br /> <br /> 'I'm here. When are you done with work? I'll be waiting for you downstairs.'<br /> <br /> Once she was done, she stood near the entrance with the umbrella. As she stared at the rain, she thought about the pregnancy report.<br /> <br /> Perhaps she should tell him when he came out? Or should she wait to surprise him on his birthday?<br /> <br /> She was lost in her thoughts. Unbeknownst to her, she was a laughingstock for a group of people upstairs.<br /> <br /> They were pressed up against the window as they gazed down at her.<br /> <br /> "She's not your actual wife, but she's quite good at it, Al. She is actually here with an umbrella because you asked. She doesn't really think you would walk through the rain, right?" one of them asked.<br /> <br /> "Is she so in love with you that she has forgotten all about logic?"<br /> <br /> "What nonsense."<br /> <br /> A languid voice rang out from a corner of the room.<br /> <br /> The speaker was a tall man with long legs and a cold face. His fair skin and wide, slanted eyes highlighted his incredible attractiveness. Dressed in a gray bespoke suit, he sat there with crossed legs.<br /> <br /> He raised his hand, revealing the exquisite and luxurious watch on his wrist. "Hand it over."<br /> <br /> The friend who did the prank had no choice but to return the phone.<br /> <br /> "Tsk. Are we giving back the phone that quickly?" someone commented.<br /> <br /> "Enough. If Claudia wasn't here, you wouldn't even have a chance to lay a finger on his phone."<br /> <br /> The crowd continued to joke and laugh as they turned to look at the beautiful woman seated beside the man. She was dressed in a white dress which made her look kind and gentle.<br /> <br /> She pursed her lip in a smile when she heard that. "All right," she softly said. "It was wrong of you to use Al's phone for a prank, and now, you're making fun of me."<br /> <br /> The friends did not plan on letting up on their teasing as they called out, "Everyone knows you're the most important person to Al, Claudia."<br /> <br /> "That's right. Alaric would say that as well, right?"<br /> <br /> When Claudia Johnson heard that, she could not resist glancing at Alaric.<br /> <br /> Alaric smiled and did not deny it.<br /> <br /> When the group saw that, the teasing worsened.<br /> <br /> "I told you, there is no one more important to Al than Claudia!"<br /> <br /> As they continued to tease, he glanced down and swiftly messaged Victoria.<br /> <br /> 'I don't need the umbrella anymore. Head home first.'<br /> <br /> Victoria was puzzled when she received the message. 'Did something happen?' she messaged back.<br /> <br /> She stared down at her phone for a long time, but there was no reply.<br /> <br /> Perhaps he was really busy.<br /> <br /> She decided to head back first.<br /> <br /> "Wait."<br /> <br /> Someone suddenly called out to her from behind. She turned around to see two fashionable young women walking over to her.<br /> <br /> The taller woman glanced at her and disdainfully asked, "You're Victoria Selwyn?"<br /> <br /> Since hostility was painted all over that woman's face, Victoria did not hold back and briskly shot back, "You are?"<br /> <br /> "My name is not important. What is important is the fact that Claudia is back. If you're smart, you'll get away from Alaric."<br /> <br /> Victoria's pupils shrank in astonishment.<br /> <br /> It had been so long since she last heard that name. So much time had passed that... she nearly forgot Claudia existed.<br /> <br /> Her reaction was clearly noticed as the other woman shot her a scornful look.<br /> <br /> "Why are you so shocked? You’ve been pretending to be Mrs. Cadogan for two years. Do you think the position is really yours?"<br /> <br /> Victoria bit her lip as her face was pale white. The knuckles of the hand holding onto the umbrella were also turning white.<br /> <br /> "Look at her face. Do you think she's going to steal Claudia's man out of spite?" one of the women said.<br /> <br /> "Can she, though?"<br /> <br /> Victoria walked away, not bothering to listen to what they would say next.<br /> <br /> Their shouts were drowned out by the rain.<br /> <br /> When she returned to the Cadogan Residence, Hector Bowen, the butler, was shocked to find someone soaked to the core standing on the doorstep. "Mrs. Cadogan!" he exclaimed when he made out who it was.<br /> <br /> "What happened to you? Come in."<br /> <br /> Victoria was so cold that her limbs felt rather numb. In just a few seconds after stepping into the house, she was surrounded by a group of servants wrapping her in a huge towel and drying her hair.<br /> <br /> "Draw the madam a hot water bath!"<br /> <br /> "Get a cup of tea ready."<br /> <br /> The servants were panicking so badly over how soaked she was by the rain that no one noticed a car driving through the gates, nor did they notice the tall figure standing in the doorway soon after.<br /> <br /> That was until a cold voice rang out through the room.<br /> <br /> "What happened?"<br /> <br /> The sound of the voice made her jump from where she was sitting on the couch. Why was Alaric back?<br /> <br /> Should he not be with his Claudia?<br /> <br /> "The madam was caught in the rain, sir," Hector said.<br /> <br /> Caught in the rain? Alaric's dark eyes turned to the petite figure curled up on the couch as he strode over.<br /> <br /> He frowned when he properly saw the state she was in.<br /> <br /> Currently, she was like a drowned rat. Her soft hair was limp and clung to her pale skin. Her usually pink lips were pale as well.<br /> <br /> "What happened to you?" he harshly barked out as he scowled harder.<br /> <br /> She waited until she had full control over her emotions before looking up at him and putting on a wan smile. "My phone died," she explained. "On my way back, I bumped into a kid caught in the rain without an umbrella."<br /> <br /> His eyes suddenly went cold.<br /> <br /> "Are you crazy?"<br /> <br /> Her smile went stiff.<br /> <br /> "You gave him the umbrella, and you ended up walking through the rain," he continued.<br /> <br /> "How old are you? Did you think I would praise you for doing that?"<br /> <br /> The servants around them glanced at each other, too afraid to say a word.<br /> <br /> Victoria's lashes hung low. Her vision was blurred by tears by now.<br /> <br /> She forced herself to keep quiet and hold her tears back.<br /> <br /> It was doable until Alaric walked over and lifted her in a bridal carry. It was only then that she let her tears roll. A drop of tear fell on the back of her hand.<br /> <br /> Alaric shoved Victoria into the bathroom and left.<br /> <br /> She kept her head down, waiting until he stepped out of the room before slowly looking up and wiping away the tears on her cheeks.<br /> <br /> Moments later.<br /> <br /> She locked the bathroom door and pulled out the hospital's report from her pocket.<br /> <br /> After being soaked in the rain, the entire report was illegible with every word too blurred out to read.<br /> <br /> She had planned on surprising him with it, but now it seemed like she didn’t have to do it now.<br /> <br /> She had been with him for two years. She knew for sure that he was the kind of person who never let his phone leave his side.<br /> <br /> He was also not the kind of man who would intentionally summon her just to tell her to go home.<br /> <br /> The only possibility was that someone took his phone to message her so that she would be laughed at.<br /> <br /> Perhaps there was a crowd of people laughing at her while she was making a fool of herself by waiting outside the country club with the umbrella.<br /> <br /> She stared down at the illegible report for long moments before letting out a self-deprecating chuckle and slowly tearing it apart.<br /> <br /> 30 minutes later.<br /> <br /> Victoria calmly walked out of the bathroom.<br /> <br /> Alaric was sitting on the couch. His long legs were placed firmly against the floor as he focused on the laptop in front of him. He seemed to be working.<br /> <br /> When he saw her, he pointed at the cup of tea beside him.<br /> <br /> "Drink that."<br /> <br /> "Okay."<br /> <br /> She walked over and picked up the cup of tea. She did not drink it immediately. Instead, she seemed to be preoccupied with some thought before calling out to him.<br /> <br /> "Alaric."<br /> <br /> "Yes?" His voice was cold as he remained focused on the screen before his eyes.<br /> <br /> She stared at his sculptured jaw and profile. Her pale lips twitched.<br /> <br /> However, he seemed to have gotten impatient as he snapped up to look at her. Their eyes locked.<br /> <br /> As she had just taken a shower, her skin was pink, and her lips no longer looked as pale as before. Still, she looked rather sickly like she might shatter at a touch. Perhaps it was because she had just been drenched in the rain.<br /> <br /> As for Victoria, her emotions were warring inside her, causing her to be oblivious to his emotions. Instead, she was trying to work out what to say.<br /> <br /> Eventually, she came to a decision. "You... Mmgh!"<br /> <br /> She had just opened her mouth when he grabbed her chin and kissed her.<br /> <br /> She eventually ran out of breath. Just as she was about to push him away, his phone began to ring from where it was on the table.<br /> <br /> They froze. He soon moved away. When he spoke next, his voice was hoarse.<br /> <br /> "Finish your tea and rest early."<br /> <br /> He grabbed his phone and walked out of the room.<br /> <br /> He had to answer the phone.<br /> <br /> The balcony door slid shut.<br /> <br /> Dazed by what happened just now, she rested on the couch for a few moments before standing.<br /> <br /> She did not head into the bedroom but walked toward the balcony.<br /> <br /> The glass door was only half-closed. The chill night breeze carried Alaric's voice over to her.<br /> <br /> "I won't leave."<br /> <br /> "What are you thinking? Be good and sleep."<br /> <br /> His voice was so gentle and tender.<br /> <br /> She stood there and listened for a few minutes before chuckling.<br /> <br /> Ah, so he could be gentle and sweet. What a pity the target of his affection is not me.<br /> <br /> She turned around and walked into the bedroom. With a blank face, she sat down on the bed.<br /> <br /> Their marriage was a mistake in the first place. It was just a deal anyway.<br /> <br /> Two years ago, her family, the Selwyns, went bankrupt. She had fallen from grace overnight, becoming the laughingstock of the city.<br /> <br /> The Selwyns had been too successful. They had made too many enemies. After their fall, everyone was rushing to humiliate them.<br /> <br /> Someone even bragged that he could help the family out with their debt as long as she gave herself to him.<br /> <br /> Prior to the family's downfall, countless men tried to woo her. None of them caught her eye, however. As time went by, people started calling her high and mighty.<br /> <br /> A group of men thought of fooling around with her now that she was in disgrace. They started a secret auction to see who would get her.<br /> <br /> When she was at her lowest and most humiliated, Alaric returned.<br /> <br /> He took care of those rowdy men and made them pay a cruel price for their actions. After helping the Selwyns pay off their debt, he then said to her, "Let's get engaged."<br /> <br /> She had stared at him in shock.<br /> <br /> At that, he reached out to stroke her cheek.<br /> <br /> "Why are you surprised? Afraid that I'll take advantage of you?" he asked. "Don't worry. It's just a fake marriage. Grandma is sick, and she likes you. She'll be happy to see us engaged. I'll help you bring the Selwyns back to glory."<br /> <br /> Oh, it is to be a fake engagement. He does not like me. It is all to make his grandmother happy.<br /> <br /> Even so, she agreed to marry him.<br /> <br /> She knew he did not care about her, yet she still fell for him.<br /> <br /> The engagement left her feeling conflicted.<br /> <br /> The sudden change in their relationship from childhood sweethearts to an engaged couple somehow felt weird to her.<br /> <br /> He did not appear ill at ease though, attending every event and dinner party with her by his side. A year afterward, his grandmother Griselda Bates' condition worsened, which promoted them to move onto the marriage stage, and she became Mrs. Cadogan, the object of everyone's envy.<br /> <br /> Everyone was saying that the pair of childhood sweethearts were meant to be together.<br /> <br /> When she snapped out of her thoughts, she could not help but laugh at her thoughts.<br /> <br /> Unfortunately, they did not get together for real. It was just a transaction between willing parties.<br /> <br /> Suddenly, she heard Alaric speak. "You're still awake."<br /> <br /> The spot beside her on the bed soon dipped down as her nose was filled with the refreshing notes of his scent.<br /> <br /> "I have something to tell you," he said.<br /> <br /> She did not turn around. She could guess what he was going to say.<br /> <br /> "Let's get divorced," he continued.<br /> <br /> Even though she had guessed it, her heart still skipped. Suppressing her emotions and trying her best to keep calm, she asked, "When?"<br /> <br /> Lying there, she sounded so calm and unaffected, as if she was merely talking about something normal.<br /> <br /> Her reaction made him frown as he answered, "Soon. We'll wait until Grandma's done with her surgery."<br /> <br /> She nodded.<br /> <br /> "Okay."<br /> <br /> "That's it?" he asked after a pause.<br /> <br /> Hearing that, she turned to glance at him. "What?"<br /> <br /> Her eyes were so wide and pure that he was stunned by her question. He gulped before letting out a silent laugh.<br /> <br /> "Nothing, you heartless woman."<br /> <br /> People liked to say marriage tied people together. They had been married for two years, yet she remained so calm when he suggested a divorce.<br /> <br /> Well, their marriage was just a deal anyway. They both got what they needed out of it.<br /> <br /> He was merely someone to frighten her suitors away with.<br /> <br /> Two years. She probably would have cut ties with me earlier if not for Grandma.<br /> <br /> He pushed away the uneasiness he felt at her calmness, lay down beside her, and closed his eyes.<br /> <br /> "Alaric."<br /> <br /> She abruptly called out to him.<br /> <br /> His eyes snapped open. His deep eyes glowed in the darkness as he stared at her.<br /> <br /> "What is it?"<br /> <br /> Her lips opened and closed as she, too, had her gaze on him. In the end, she blurted, "Thank you... For the past two years."<br /> <br /> His eyes darkened when he heard that. He pursed his lips. "You talk too much."<br /> <br /> Did she?<br /> <br /> She turned away from him, thinking she would not have a chance to do so after their divorce.<br /> <br /> When Victoria woke up the following morning, she discovered she had caught a cold. So, she reached into her drawer for some fever medicine and poured a glass of warm water.<br /> <br /> The instant she popped the pill into her mouth, a realization dawned on her, causing her eyes to widen and her face to pale. So, she swiftly dashed into the bathroom to spit it out. Then, she leaned over the sink, repeatedly spitting and rinsing her mouth to get every last remnant of the dissolved pill out of her mouth.<br /> <br /> "What happens? Why did you rush in here? Are you sick?"<br /> <br /> When Alaric's distinct voice rang out from the doorway, Victoria looked up, startled.<br /> <br /> Meanwhile, he had a frown on his face as he stared at her.<br /> <br /> Once she caught his gaze, she quickly averted it, and after a moment of silence, she replied, "It's nothing. I merely took the wrong pill."<br /> <br /> She then wiped away the drops of water on her lips and exited the bathroom.<br /> <br /> However, Alaric watched Victoria walk out with a contemplative look. She's been acting strangely since she returned home yesterday.<br /> <br /> After breakfast, the couple left the house together.<br /> <br /> Seeing her face ashen, he asked, "Do you want to ride in my car with me?"<br /> <br /> After a walk in the rain the day before, Victoria woke up that morning feeling a little under the weather. However, before she could nod, his phone rang.<br /> <br /> Hence, Alaric glanced down at it to see that it was a call from Claudia. He wanted to go back inside to answer the phone, but when he raised his head, he saw that Victoria had already left.<br /> <br /> Although married, they did not share the same interests; therefore, she did not routinely listen to his phone calls. That was their way of life for the past two years.<br /> <br /> Nevertheless, her swift escape made his heart clench in agony that day. Soon, the pain faded quickly when he answered the phone call.<br /> <br /> Meanwhile, Victoria stood a few feet away and observed Alaric. From the look on his face, she knew who the caller was. His face was so gentle and soft; it was a side of him she had never seen before.<br /> <br /> So, she took a deep breath and suppressed the envy swelling in her. Then, she walked toward the garage while pulling out her phone.<br /> <br /> Five minutes later, he hung up the phone and turned to find nobody standing beside him. Then, he quickly glanced in different directions but could not find her.<br /> <br /> At that moment, his phone buzzed with a new message. 'I urgently need to get to the office, so I left first.' As Alaric stared at the text message, his face darkened.<br /> <br /> Meanwhile, Victoria forced herself to push past her discomfort and head into the office. The moment she sat down at her desk, she was sprawling out over the table.<br /> <br /> My head hurts so bad!<br /> <br /> Nonetheless, she knew she could not take pain medication, even if she wanted to, because she was pregnant.<br /> <br /> Sometimes, she did not know what she was thinking, especially considering that her marriage to Alaric was fictitious. Even if she were pregnant, Griselda would be the only person genuinely happy for her. In addition, Victoria knew that no one else, including him, would be happy about the birth of her child.<br /> <br /> She had hoped that by telling him she was pregnant, he would accept the child and strengthen their marriage until yesterday. Nonetheless, when she learned that Claudia had returned, she realized he still felt the same way about Claudia as he had back then. If Alaric knew, his first instinct upon hearing the news would be to advise an abortion, fearing for the future of his marriage to Claudia. Nevertheless, a voice inside her head told her to abort the baby immediately, or she would be left with nothing but shame.<br /> <br /> "Miss Victoria." The sweet voice of a woman calling out from nearby snapped her out of her thoughts. She looked up to see that it was Yasmin Labauve, her assistant.<br /> <br /> Then, Victoria sat up straight and plastered on a perfect smile. "Good morning. You're here."<br /> <br /> On the other hand, Yasmin did not return her smile but looked at her with a concerned expression. "Victoria, you don't look so good. Are you sick?"<br /> <br /> Victoria was startled by the question, but she soon shook her head in response. "I'm fine. I didn't sleep well last night. That's all."<br /> <br /> "Really?" Yasmin did not look like she believed her. "You look really pale, though. Are you really okay? You should probably take the day off and see a doctor."<br /> <br /> "I'm fine," Victoria replied. "Are you done with yesterday's work?"<br /> <br /> However, Yasmin was helpless against the constant redirection back to work. Ultimately, she handed over her pre-sorted documents from her desk and poured Victoria warm water.<br /> <br /> "Since you refuse to go to the doctor's, drink this to keep yourself warm."<br /> <br /> Victoria hired Yasmin, and while she was a dedicated employee, the two of them rarely interacted outside of work.<br /> <br /> However, she was surprised by Yasmin's concern for her. Then, as she took a few sips of the water, it warmed her heart. She had been feeling cold earlier, but after some warm water, she felt much better.<br /> <br /> Still, Yasmin was anxiously staring at her. "Miss Victoria, why don't I hand in the report today while you rest here?"<br /> <br /> "It's fine," Victoria said, shaking her head. "I can do it."<br /> <br /> It's only a mild fever, and I'm not that pampered. If I take time off and delegate my duties whenever I am sick, I will eventually become complacent. What will I do if I get sick in the future without anyone to help me?<br /> <br /> Soon, Victoria sorted through her documents and walked toward Alaric's office.<br /> <br /> Her office was located relatively far from his. While it was usually fine, the walk felt tiring that day, likely because she was sick.<br /> <br /> Knock! Knock!<br /> <br /> "Come in."<br /> <br /> She waited to hear his cold, deep voice before pushing the door open.<br /> <br /> As Victoria stepped through the door, she saw another figure inside. It was Claudia, wearing a white dress that highlighted her slender waist. She looked like an angel, her supple hair falling to her waist with the sunlight streaming through the ceiling-to-floor window shining on her.<br /> <br /> Meanwhile, Victoria went stiff when she realized who the other person was.<br /> <br /> "Oh, Victoria," Claudia greeted. Following that, she walked up to Victoria with a broad grin. Before Victoria could even react, Claudia was embracing her.<br /> <br /> Suddenly, Victoria's body became even more rigid as she locked eyes with Alaric over Claudia's shoulder.<br /> <br /> He was leaning against his desk, staring intently at her with his dark eyes, but it was hard to tell what was happening in his mind.<br /> <br /> When Victoria regained her composure, Claudia had already stepped away from her.<br /> <br /> "I heard all about your situation from Alaric. You've had it hard." There was a look of distress on Claudia's face. "You must tell me if you need any help."<br /> <br /> Victoria was surprised to hear that. Alaric had told Claudia everything?<br /> <br /> However, she soon realized why that had been done. Everyone knew about her marriage to him, so there was no way they could keep it from Claudia.<br /> <br /> Since it could not be a secret, he must explain himself clearly. Moreover, she owed Claudia.<br /> <br /> Then, Victoria shoved aside the bitterness she felt and spread her lips in a smile. "Thank you. When did you get back?"<br /> <br /> "I flew in yesterday," Claudia replied.<br /> <br /> Yesterday? That means Alaric went to see her as soon as she returned. Inevitably, Claudia is the one he cherishes the most in his life.<br /> <br /> "Why do you look so pale?" Claudia suddenly asked. "Are you sick?"<br /> <br /> Hearing that, Alaric, languidly leaning against his desk, suddenly turned to stare at Victoria. A frown formed on his brow as he scanned her up and down.<br /> <br /> "Is it because you got wet walking home in the rain last night?"<br /> <br /> "Walking in the rain?" Claudia looked confused.<br /> <br /> Victoria sighed and was about to explain when Alaric coldly snapped, "Why are you forcing yourself if you don't feel well? The company doesn't desperately need you. Go home and rest."<br /> <br /> When Claudia heard that, she instinctively turned to glance at him. Why is he suddenly agitated?<br /> <br /> Victoria helplessly objected, "I'm not completely drenched despite the rain. Moreover, I'm fine." She then walked over to Alaric's desk and placed the report on it. "This is yesterday's summary. I've sorted it up. Now, I have work to do, so I'll leave the two of you to your reunion."<br /> <br /> She glanced at Claudia, who immediately smiled at her.<br /> <br /> When she left, Alaric was frowning hard.<br /> <br /> "Alaric?"<br /> <br /> He only snapped out of his thoughts when Claudia called out to him.<br /> <br /> His reaction confused her, but she sounded kind and caring when saying, "Victoria doesn't look so well. She might be your secretary now, but she used to be the precious daughter of the Selwyns before they went bankrupt. You cannot be too hard on her."<br /> <br /> Too hard on her? Alaric internally laughed. Who could be hard on that woman?<br /> <br /> However, he did not say any of that; instead, responding with a grunt of acknowledgment.<br /> <br /> Meanwhile, Victoria shuffled back to her office with heavy feet and a heavy head. As soon as she sat down, she could not help but slump over her desk. Suddenly, her head was spinning hard.<br /> <br /> She lost track of time until she finally heard Yasmin's voice.<br /> <br /> "Victoria, why don't you go home and rest?"<br /> <br /> At that moment, Victoria felt so lethargic and sick that her only response was, "Yasmin, let me sleep for a while." Following that, she immediately fell into a deep sleep.<br /> <br /> She had a dream in which she was eighteen again. On that day, she and Alaric had their coming-of-age celebration. So, their families decided to co-host the party. That evening, she specifically put on her favorite blue dress, curled her hair, and had her nails done. She planned to confess her love to him.<br /> <br /> After a long, fruitless search, she located him in the garden. As she walked over to him, she heard his friends teasing him.<br /> <br /> "You're an adult now, Al. Are there any girls you like? Maybe you can get engaged," one of them said.<br /> <br /> "Victoria's quite nice. She's always hanging around you," another said.<br /> <br /> When Victoria heard that, she instinctively stopped walking, wanting to listen to what Alaric had to say. After all, his answer was vital to what she would do next.<br /> <br /> However, she did not hear his response as someone spoke up first. "Victoria is impossible. Al only sees her as his little sister. Everyone knows the only one in his mind is Claudia."<br /> <br /> Claudia...<br /> <br /> Then, Victoria snuck a glance at Alaric.<br /> <br /> That evening, Alaric sat on the stone bench, his legs so long that they barely touched the ground. He had a faint smile and didn't object to what they said.<br /> <br /> "Indeed. Claudia is more feminine, gentle, and beautiful, but Victoria is only a little girl. Moreover, Claudia is Alaric's savior." The boy who spoke was Bane Morison, one of Alaric's best friends. He loved teasing Victoria. Every time they met, he would insist on pulling on her pigtails.<br /> <br /> He was also one of the people Victoria hated the most. I'm not a little girl!<br /> <br /> "That's right," one of Alaric's friends said. "The waters were so dangerous back then. If she had not jumped down to save you, Alaric Cadogan might not be alive today."<br /> <br /> Alaric nodded. Finally, there was a response from him as he hummed in agreement.<br /> <br /> Under the moonlight, his face looked very calm. "The spot beside me will always be hers."<br /> <br /> Suddenly, Victoria's heart literally shattered in two when she heard that. She stood there dumbfounded as the blood drained from her face, turning her skin stark white. However, she did not expect her confession would be rejected before it was even given.<br /> <br /> Claudia had saved Alaric's life, and everyone was talking about it. Customarily, heroes would rescue damsels in distress. In the case of Alaric and Claudia, however, a young woman came to the rescue of a man.<br /> <br /> On the other hand, Victoria was not aware of the matter.<br /> <br /> She had also fallen into the river, resulting in a high fever. When she finally woke up, she had forgotten about the events and had no idea how or why she had fallen into the river. One of her classmates said she accidentally fell in because she was too playful.<br /> <br /> However, it always felt like she had forgotten something. Unfortunately, try as she might, she could not remember anything about it. As time went on, she completely forgot about it.<br /> <br /> Still, Victoria did not expect Alaric to be obsessed with the person who saved him.<br /> <br /> It would have been great if I had been the one to save him.<br /> <br /> Her dream self's emotions seemed to merge with her current emotions.<br /> <br /> At that moment, her heart felt like it was weighed down by a boulder. Her head throbbed, and she mused, Why wasn't I the one who rescued him back then? If only... If only...<br /> <br /> Suddenly, Alaric appeared before Victoria in the dream. His eyes were cold and emotionless. "Abort the baby, Victoria."<br /> <br /> Meanwhile, Claudia stood beside him, her vine-like arms wrapped around his side.<br /> <br /> "Are you keeping the baby because you want to ruin our love, Victoria?" she asked.<br /> <br /> When he heard the word 'ruin,' his eyes went colder. He stepped forward and grabbed Victoria's chin. "Behave, or I will make my move."<br /> <br /> His grip was so hard that it felt like he would shatter her jaw.<br /> <br /> She struggled arduously but eventually woke up from the dream, her body drenched in a cold sweat.<br /> <br /> As soon as her eyes opened, she saw a busy highway outside the window.<br /> <br /> Is it... a dream? Why does it feel so real?<br /> <br /> Then, she heaved a sigh.<br /> <br /> "Oh, you're awake, Victoria." Hearing the soft voice coming from ahead, she looked up to find Claudia staring at her worriedly. "Thank goodness. I was so worried something had happened to you."<br /> <br /> Why is she here? Realization soon struck Victoria. She turned to look at the driver. It was Alaric, and Claudia was sitting in the passenger seat.<br /> <br /> When he heard Victoria had woken up, he glanced at her in the rearview mirror.<br /> <br /> "You're up. What hurts? Tell the doctor everything when we're at the hospital."<br /> <br /> Victoria's heart had been pounding hard from her nightmare. She had finally calmed her heart down, but what he said made it race again from anxiety. "No. I don't need to go to the hospital. I'm fine."<br /> <br /> He shot her another look when he heard that. "Why are you causing a fuss? Don't you know you have a fever?"<br /> <br /> "Yes, Victoria, you are burning up really badly. You have to go to the hospital," Claudia said in agreement. "Al said you got wet walking home in the rain yesterday. What happened?"<br /> <br /> What happens? Victoria stared at Claudia. Her pale lips moved, but she ultimately said nothing. She was definitely present for yesterday's prank. Why else would she inquire if not to imply something?<br /> <br /> After a moment of thought, Claudia's face turned worried as she guiltily asked, "Is it because yesterday—"<br /> <br /> "Anyway, we'll be going to the hospital first," Alaric interrupted in his deep and steady voice. "Rest for the next few days until you get better. You don't need to head into the office during this time."<br /> <br /> Then, Claudia shot him a puzzled look for his interruption.<br /> <br /> Meanwhile, Victoria lowered her eyes as a spine-chillingly icy look flashed in her beautiful eyes. He is very protective of the person for whom he cares the most.<br /> <br /> It took a few long minutes before she finally looked up and responded, "I won't go to the hospital."<br /> <br /> He frowned. Today, she seems incredibly stubborn.<br /> <br /> "What's your plan? How can you not go to the hospital when you're having a fever?"<br /> <br /> "I know what’s best for myself," she shot back with pursed lips.<br /> <br /> Victoria could not go to the hospital. The moment she did so, her pregnancy would be exposed. It sounded laughable, but she did not want anyone else to know about the baby. She tried to protect the last remaining shreds of her dignity. She knew her pride was already gone when she agreed to fake a marriage with Alaric. Right now, before him and the woman he loved, what sort of dignity did she even have? Even so…<br /> <br /> Then, she glanced down but did not wish to disclose anything that would cause others to ridicule her.<br /> <br /> Alaric scowled when he heard that. The car abruptly turned and screeched to a stop by the side of the road.<br /> <br /> At that moment, Victoria thought he was telling her to exit his car, so she reached out to open the door.<br /> <br /> Clack! The doors were immediately locked.<br /> <br /> He was staring at her with a dark look through the rearview mirror. "Why don't you want to go to the hospital?" he asked.<br /> <br /> She had been acting strange since walking through the rain the evening before.<br /> <br /> "I can visit a doctor myself if I don't feel well," Victoria calmly replied.<br /> <br /> He narrowed his eyes dangerously when he heard that.<br /> <br /> "Al, is it because of me?" Claudia hurriedly asked. "Why not... Why don't I get off here while you take Victoria to the hospital? After all, her illness is quite serious. We cannot delay her treatment." Following that, she leaned toward Alaric as if she wanted to unlock the car doors.<br /> <br /> Victoria watched as he stopped her, holding her hand.<br /> <br /> "Don't say that." Alaric frowned and glanced at Victoria before continuing, "Don't overthink it. It's not because of you."<br /> <br /> Then, Claudia glanced down at their hands as an embarrassed glint flashed in her eyes.<br /> <br /> Meanwhile, Victoria silently watched them. After Claudia turned to look at her, Victoria begrudgingly tore her eyes away from them.<br /> <br /> "I'm sorry for the misunderstanding, Victoria," said Claudia. "I thought you were angry at Al because of me. I'm so sorry."<br /> <br /> Victoria calmly glanced back at her. She would have thought Claudia was a manipulator if she did not owe Claudia for helping her once. Nevertheless, Claudia was her savior as well.<br /> <br /> Then, Victoria forced a smile. "It's fine."<br /> <br /> "Are you unwilling to go to the hospital because you're afraid of the hospital?" Claudia asked with a grin. "My friend opened a clinic of his own after returning from abroad. Why not go to his place?"<br /> <br /> She then turned to Alaric. "What do you think, Al?"<br /> <br /> He did not immediately agree to the idea. Instead, he frowned and asked, "A clinic? Is it reliable?"<br /> <br /> "Of course," Claudia somewhat awkwardly replied. "If he wasn't reliable, would I introduce him to you? Don't you trust me?"<br /> <br /> After a moment of thought, he nodded. "We'll go there."<br /> <br /> Victoria frowned. "I—"<br /> <br /> However, the car was already speeding away, and her objection was useless.<br /> <br /> On the other hand, Claudia was even reassuring her. "Don't worry, Victoria. My friend's a good man. He's very kind and patient. I'll ensure he knows beforehand that your treatment will be negotiated later, alright?"<br /> <br /> Compared to the considerate and gentle Claudia, Victoria seemed to be the exact opposite. Despite her sickness, she still refused to go to the hospital; how very selfish and inconsiderate.<br /> <br /> What else could Victoria say to that?<br /> <br /> Thus, she kept quiet as the car continued on its way.<br /> <br /> After arriving at the clinic, Claudia helped her out of the car, and she softly asked, "Does your head spin? If you feel sick, you can lean on me."<br /> <br /> Her voice was so very soft, and her supporting hands were too. The faint scent of jasmine lingered around her.<br /> <br /> However, Victoria lowered her eyes in thought. Claudia is not only stunning but also a wonderful person. Moreover, she once rescued Alaric's life. If I'm Alaric, I'll probably fall in love with her too.<br /> <br /> After Claudia's friend arrived, she talked to him for a while. The man in the white coat glanced at Victoria, nodded at Claudia, and walked over to her.<br /> <br /> "Hello, you're Claudia's friend, right? I'm Dominic Fagan."<br /> <br /> Victoria nodded in greeting. "Hello."<br /> <br /> "You have a fever?" His voice was gentle as he placed the back of a hand against her forehead.<br /> <br /> With his unexpected proximity, she jerked to the side. Nonetheless, he found humor in her response. "I'm only testing your temperature," he said.<br /> <br /> Dominic then turned around and pulled out a thermometer. "Let's get a reading of your temperature."<br /> <br /> Victoria accepted the thermometer.<br /> <br /> "You know how to use it, right?" Alaric asked as he stood behind her.<br /> <br /> His question rendered her speechless. However, she chose to ignore him. What makes you believe I have no idea how to use a thermometer?<br /> <br /> Nevertheless, her movement was sluggish because she was so sick that her head spun.<br /> <br /> Once the thermometer was in place, Dominic told her to leave it there.<br /> <br /> Seeing that, Claudia seized the chance to introduce her friend to Alaric.<br /> <br /> "Al, this is Dominic. I mentioned you to him before over the phone. He's an amazing doctor, but he loves his freedom so much that he decided to open a clinic instead when he returned. Dominic, this is Alaric. He's—"<br /> <br /> She paused before shyly continuing, "My friend."<br /> <br /> "Friend?" Dominic raised his eyebrows when he heard that. He glanced at Victoria before looking back at Alaric. "Hello, I'm Dominic Fagan. It's a pleasure to meet you."<br /> <br /> A few long moments passed before Alaric shook Dominic's hand. "Alaric Cadogan."<br /> <br /> "I know."<br /> <br /> There was a mysterious smirk on Dominic's face as he suggestively said, "Claudia talks about you often. She has a very high opinion of you."<br /> <br /> "Dominic!" Claudia's cheeks immediately blushed red as if that remark struck a chord.<br /> <br /> "What? Am I wrong? You're always singing his praises in front of everyone."<br /> <br /> "Enough. Don't mention it."<br /> <br /> Alaric glanced at Victoria as the other two spoke.<br /> <br /> She was sitting there with half-lidded eyes. Her hair hung low over her forehead, blocking her eyes from view and hiding any signs of her emotions. She silently sat there, calm and unbothered, as if she were an outsider.<br /> <br /> Then, his face instantly darkened upon seeing that.<br /> <br /> Five minutes later, Dominic took the thermometer from Victoria. He frowned. "You're running a little high. I'll give you a shot."<br /> <br /> Victoria's head immediately snapped up. "No shots."<br /> <br /> Dominic looked at her and smiled. "Are you afraid it will hurt? Don't worry. I'll be gentle."<br /> <br /> Claudia nodded in agreement. "Your health is vital, Victoria."<br /> <br /> Still, Victoria shook her head and insisted, "I don't want any shots or medication."<br /> <br /> Her stubborn attitude made Alaric frown once more.<br /> <br /> "Our only option is to bring your temperature down externally. I'll tell the nurse to gather what you need. For now, put a cool, wet towel on your forehead. We don't want your temperature to go higher."<br /> <br /> When Dominic left the room, Claudia said, "I'll help him."<br /> <br /> After the two left, Alaric and Victoria were the only ones left in the room.<br /> <br /> Meanwhile, Victoria's head was still spinning. She wanted to grab the wet towel to place it on her forehead, but she could not muster a single ounce of strength.<br /> <br /> Then, Alaric, who had been relatively silent the whole time, abruptly spoke up.<br /> <br /> "Melodramatic!"<br /> <br /> Melodramatic?<br /> <br /> Victoria paused and chuckled to herself after a moment. "Of course, I can't match Claudia's thoughtfulness for others."<br /> <br /> The words slipped out before she could even think twice.<br /> <br /> Alaric was stunned, and so was she.<br /> <br /> What am I even saying?<br /> <br /> While she regretted saying the wrong thing, he lifted her chin and looked into her eyes with his deep black ones. Then, he narrowed his eyes, and his gaze was as sharp as a hawk's.<br /> <br /> "Are you jealous of her?"<br /> <br /> Her eyebrows twitched. She felt a bit anxious and wanted to brush his hand away.<br /> <br /> "What nonsense are you talking about?"<br /> <br /> However, she had no strength in her hands, and when she tried to push, her movement felt weak.<br /> <br /> This action made him raise his eyebrows and hold her wrist in amusement. "You’re in poor health, aren’t you?"<br /> <br /> "Speak for yourself!" Victoria retorted, then pulled her hand back. Since she used too much force, her body fell backward onto the couch, and she couldn't get up. She was really too weak. Alaric stood there, looking at her with a complicated expression. So, he went to the restroom, filled a plastic basin with water, and returned with a towel. Afterward, he put them on the chair next to her.<br /> <br /> He soaked the new towel in cold water, wrung it out, and wiped her with it.<br /> <br /> "What are you doing?"<br /> <br /> Seeing him approach her with the towel, she instinctively moved away.<br /> <br /> He grabbed her shoulder, and his handsome brows furrowed. "Don't move; I'm cooling you down."<br /> <br /> She wanted to say no, but when the towel touched her skin, a cold feeling rushed over her, and she couldn't refuse.<br /> <br /> Her body temperature was high, and it was better to cool down.<br /> <br /> After all, it was only physical cooling...<br /> <br /> Thinking this, Victoria let him do as he pleased.<br /> <br /> Alaric wiped away the sweat from her forehead, then wiped her cheeks. As he wiped her, he thought of something, and his lips curled up as he said softly, "Victoria, you're really something."<br /> <br /> His words made her eyelids twitch.<br /> <br /> "What?"<br /> <br /> At that moment, his eyes were as deep as black diamonds. Then, he snorted and said, "Don’t pretend you didn’t get what I meant. This is my first time taking care of others, so you really are something."<br /> <br /> With that, Alaric moved his hand on her shoulder to her collar and pulled it open. He then inserted the wet towel inside.<br /> <br /> At that, Victoria's face changed slightly, and she grabbed his hand. "What are you doing?"<br /> <br /> "I'm wiping your back," he answered righteously.<br /> <br /> However, she was anxious and embarrassed as she pulled her collar back. "No, I can do it myself."<br /> <br /> However, he looked at her movements and gradually frowned.<br /> <br /> "Why are you upset with me?"<br /> <br /> "I'm not upset with you. I can do it myself."<br /> <br /> He still frowned, looking displeased as he stared at her.<br /> <br /> "Are you—" he began.<br /> <br /> Bam!<br /> <br /> Before he could finish his sentence, a loud noise sounded from outside the door. Alaric and Victoria looked toward the door to see Claudia frantically picking up some things from the ground.<br /> <br /> His hand froze mid-air and withdrew it after a moment, looking expressionless. Victoria simply lay there, smirking a little.<br /> <br /> Meanwhile, Claudia quickly gathered her things and walked inside, smiling gently at Alaric and Victoria as if nothing had happened.<br /> <br /> "I dropped something earlier because I wasn't holding it properly. I didn't scare you guys, did I?" she said.<br /> <br /> He pursed his lips and was about to say something, but Claudia approached him and stretched out her hand. "Let me do it."<br /> <br /> Then, he said nothing and handed her the damp towel.<br /> <br /> "Dominic already explained everything to me, so you can leave Victoria to me. Don't worry, I'll take good care of her," she said.<br /> <br /> Hearing this, Alaric looked at Victoria, lying motionless on the bed, before nodding. "Okay."<br /> <br /> Soon, he left the room, closing the door behind him.<br /> <br /> The room was quiet momentarily before Claudia rinsed the towel again and walked toward Victoria with it.<br /> <br /> "Victoria, let me help you wipe your body," Claudia said gently.<br /> <br /> Victoria was indeed too weak to do it herself. "Shouldn't we call a nurse? This is too much trouble for you," she suggested.<br /> <br /> Claudia smiled softly. "It's no trouble. A nurse won't do it as well as I. Moreover, I can do it as long as you don't mind."<br /> <br /> With things at this point, what else could Victoria say? She could only nod with a smile.<br /> <br /> After she agreed, Claudia leaned over and unbuttoned Victoria's clothes.<br /> <br /> To avoid any awkwardness, Victoria closed her eyes, unaware of Claudia's scrutinizing gaze.<br /> <br /> Claudia bit her lip, and her face turned ugly.<br /> <br /> If she hadn't been mistaken, Alaric had held a damp towel earlier, intending to help Victoria wipe her body. He had even opened her collar up. Since when did their relationship become so intimate? Did something happen between them when she was abroad that she didn't know about?<br /> <br /> Claudia's eyebrows furrowed slightly as she felt a bit uneasy.<br /> <br /> As for Victoria's, Claudia had to unbutton her clothes to realize that her figure was impressive. Even though Victoria was lying down, certain parts of her were very blessed, and her skin was not pale but a relatively soft pink color, making her look stunning. Even though Claudia was a woman, she could see the perfection of Victoria's figure. She bit her lower lip, unable to restrain herself as she whispered, "Thank you for everything you've done for me these years."<br /> <br /> Victoria's eyes were closed, and she found the physical cooling effect quite compelling; the feeling of the damp towel touching her skin was refreshing. When she opened her eyes, she met Claudia's beautiful gaze.<br /> <br /> "Thank me?" Victoria asked.<br /> <br /> Claudia nodded and said, "Yes. Although it may seem like AI married you in a set-up marriage to help you through difficult times, I know that his married status has shielded him from unwanted attention in the past two years. So, I want to say thank you. Otherwise, when I'm back, dealing with all those suitors around him would be a real hassle."<br /> <br /> At these words, Victoria was taken aback. She wasn't dumb and could tell what Claudia was trying to say. Claudia started by expressing gratitude but then went on to remind her that her marriage with Alaric was not real. Claudia cautioned her to keep her expectations low, pointing out that she was not Alaric's wife.<br /> <br /> Victoria pursed her lips and said nothing. Claudia wiped her off for a while and helped her put her clothes back on. She then asked tenderly, "Feeling better? Would you like some water?"<br /> <br /> Victoria was indeed a bit thirsty. "Yes, please."<br /> <br /> Claudia went to pour her some water, and Victoria drank it all. Her throat finally felt better. She looked up at Claudia and said what was on her mind, "Actually, you don't have to worry about Alaric and me. He will always keep your position as his wife because you saved his life. No one can replace that. You also did me a favor, and I won't forget it."<br /> ------------------------------------<br /> Book title 【Alaric's One and Only Love】 Get the APP and read more exciting content immediately. 😉 | LEARN_MORE | https://page.joyreadings.com/h5-book-share-custom4 | 106077262240533 | The novel | https://facebook.com/100085523883301 | 18,925 | 0 | 361,628,390,211,923 | 2024-03-25 02:00 | person_profile | eligible | 0 | 0 | NONE | 0 | 1 | 1 | 1 | Learn more | 0 | The novel | 120208248652800310 | page.joyreadings.com | NONE | video | https://page.joyreadings.com/h5-book-share-custom4.html?lang=en&id=4509&brand=2&app=0&ppid=1515&pid=FBW2A&campaign=%7B%7Bcampaign.id%7D%7D&adset_id=%7B%7Badset.id%7D%7D&ad_id=%7B%7Bad.id%7D%7D&utm_source=FBW2A&utm_medium=%7B%7Bplacement%7D%7D&utm_campaign=%7B%7Bcampaign.id%7D%7D&utm_term=%7B%7Badset.id%7D%7D&utm_content=%7B%7Bad.id%7D%7D&ori_campaign_id=120208146573150310&ori_adset_id=120208146575470310&ori_ad_id=120208146585920310 | 2024-03-25 04:52 | https://scontent-lga3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t39.35426-6/433449495_1118164219414213_2169942486351422279_n.jpg?stp=dst-jpg_s60x60&_nc_cat=111&ccb=1-7&_nc_sid=c53f8f&_nc_ohc=Q7AonlXlGXoAX-XRMRN&_nc_ht=scontent-lga3-1.xx&oh=00_AfBh57MIb5yz3KpuqgtysCvL4kHQ6aJ7lWP-NfHFfnrs4w&oe=66092DFA | person_profile | 0 | The novel | https://scontent-lga3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t39.35426-6/433459618_793032422695268_7156821187356438085_n.jpg?_nc_cat=103&ccb=1-7&_nc_sid=c53f8f&_nc_ohc=X6c4o9CBivMAX8-ZSOO&_nc_ht=scontent-lga3-1.xx&oh=00_AfBG5Ne9Wflb8wxugRjgTSFHwrZst-_BONtL_4H8BumtNg&oe=66096CED | 0 | 3 | The novel | 0 | 0 | 2024-03-25 02:00 | View Edit Delete | |||||||||||||||||||||
