I'm not someone who clings to what I can't have. Remember, I'm the one walking away from you, not the other way around."<br /> That night, she thought it was a sign that he had finally accepted her after marrying him for three years. She was set up. It was ridiculous that her husband helped others deceive her.<br /> "I don't agree to the divorce. Jessica's really sick, Cynthia, and you're the only one who can donate a kidney to save her. That's my only condition."<br /> "Cynthia," Nathan said, softening his tone deliberately. "Just help me out this one time, and I promise to keep today's drama under wraps. I'll make it worth your while, enough to start over somewhere far away..."<br /> Cynthia gave a self-mocking smile. "I just give you one chance, Nathan. Be at the Courthouse entrance at 9 AM sharp tomorrow. If you don't show up..."<br /> She smirked coldly. "Then even better. Jessica can forget about marrying into the Richardson family. And I'll make sure to remind you that you'll be a cuckolds for the rest of your life!"<br /> ————————<br /> <br /> In the presidential suite of the Winson Hotel in Litharia, a breathtakingly beautiful woman lay in bed. Her delicate skin was mostly hidden under a sheer blanket, with only her arms peeking out, bearing the faint red traces of a night filled with passion.<br /> Cynthia Jenkins stirred, letting out a soft moan as she woke from her deep sleep. She tried to get up, but her body, still weary and sore, sank back onto the bed.<br /> Memories from the night before came rushing back, bringing a faint smile to her face. For the first time in their three-year marriage, she and her husband, Nathan Richardson, had slept.<br /> She noticed Nathan wasn't in the room, and a tinge of disappointment flickered across her face, quickly replaced by composure.<br /> At the beginning of their marriage, Nathan had been distant, rarely showing any affection. Cynthia couldn't help but wonder if last night marked a turning point, a sign that he had finally accepted her.<br /> With a flicker of hope, Cynthia rose cheerfully from the bed. The moment her undressed feet touched the cold floor, she felt a sudden chill.<br /> Picking up a blue sapphire cufflink, oddly shaped and shimmering, from the floor, Cynthia widened her eyes in surprise. 'Could this be Nathan's?'<br /> Thinking of this, Cynthia smiled and placed the cufflink in her bag. Then, she went to freshen up herself before returning home.<br /> Cynthia had barely stepped out of the door when she ran into an unexpected visitor.<br /> "Cynthia?" The woman in front of her, dressed in a crisp white dress and possessing a sharp, piercing voice, was Kelly Dixon, the second lady of the Dixon family.<br /> Cynthia had always been at odds with the Dixon sisters. Jessica Dixon, the eldest lady of the family, was Nathan's first love. But today, Cynthia was in a good mood. "Kelly, what a surprise to see you here."<br /> "Indeed." Kelly sized up Cynthia with a mocking smile. "If I had arrived a bit earlier or later, I might have missed catching you in the act."<br /> She pointed at the red marks on Cynthia's arms with disdain. "What is this? You shameless woman! How dare you fooling around with other men behind Nathan's back!"<br /> Cynthia frowned, "What are you talking about?"<br /> "Cynthia, I've always known you're shameless, clinging to Nathan. But I never pegged you as someone who'd stoop this low." Kelly's eyes sparkled with the thrill of uncovering a juicy piece of gossip. "Are you really going to say these marks are from a night with Nathan?"<br /> Before Cynthia could utter a word, Kelly cut her off. "Please, cut the act. Nathan was at the hospital last night, staying by my sister's side. He was too busy to even catch a nap, much less waste time on someone like you."<br /> Cynthia's face changed dramatically. "Nathan was at the hospital?"<br /> "Where else would he be? You think he'd come to see you?" Kelly's voice was thick with sarcasm, as if she had just heard something ridiculous. "You've been caught sneaking around with someone else, and I'm not letting this slide so easily!<br /> "I'm going to show Nathan just how low you can go!" Kelly declared, her resolve unwavering. "I'm calling him right now to come over!"<br /> Cynthia couldn't absorb a word. Her mind went blank.<br /> If Nathan had spent the entire night in the hospital, then who was the man who had been so passionately entwined with her last night?<br /> A sudden realization made Cynthia's face darken.<br /> She had been set up!<br /> Yesterday was their three-year wedding anniversary, and Nathan surprisingly messaged her to meet at a hotel.<br /> Overjoyed and without a second thought, Cynthia rushed over. But when she arrived, Nathan texted to say he would be late and even ordered her some takeout.<br /> Cynthia, not sensing anything amiss and simply savoring the food, didn't expect to completely lose consciousness after finishing her meal. And that man last night...<br /> As Cynthia thought about everything that happened last night, her face turned deathly pale. 'How could this happen?'<br /> "Nathan already hates you for taking Jessica's place, and now, he'll never forgive you!" Kelly said triumphantly after a quick phone call. She stood firmly in Cynthia's path, blocking her exit.<br /> Cynthia hadn't even considered leaving. She felt a chill run down her spine. Besides, there weren't many people who could send a message using Nathan's phone.<br /> Soon, Nathan hurried down the corridor. "Kelly, did you need something from me?"<br /> He glanced at Cynthia with impatience. "What are you doing here? Jessica is still in the hospital. What are you up to now?"<br /> "I..." Cynthia opened her mouth, her mind in turmoil, unsure how to respond to him.<br /> "Nathan, I called you here," Kelly interjected eagerly. "I just so happened to see Cynthia sneaking out of a hotel room with some guy. It's serious, so I had to tell you."<br /> Nathan's face darkened instantly. "Cynthia, is it true?"<br /> "Would you believe me if I say I was framed?" Cynthia's eyes held a flicker of hope. "It was you who..."<br /> A smack came!<br /> Nathan's hand struck her face with a resounding slap, his expression cold and detached.<br /> "Pathetic! Why would anyone frame you?" Nathan's eyes blazed with anger at the sight of the red marks on Cynthia's arms.<br /> Even if he had no feelings for Cynthia, she was still his wife in name. This was nothing but a shame to him.<br /> Kelly watched with a smirk, stirring the pot. "Exactly, you must be delusional to think someone's out to get you.<br /> "Nathan, she's just lashing out because you're nice to Jessica. I caught her once, but who knows how many times she's cheated on you. Wake up, man."<br /> "What else do you have to say?" Nathan's gaze was filled with disgust.<br /> "What can I say?" Cynthia touched her burning cheek, a cold despair settling in her heart. She looked at Nathan, fighting the urge to laugh bitterly. "Nathan, don't you even want to ask why I ended up here?"<br /> It was ridiculous that her husband seemed to be solely dedicated to helping others deceive her.<br /> Nathan's eyes were full of disgust. "What exactly are you trying to say?"<br /> Cynthia felt utterly disheartened. She held up her phone, emphasizing each word. "Your phone sent me a message to come here. I trusted it and showed up. Did you text me, Nathan?"<br /> Nathan's gaze flickered. Last night, after getting treated, Jessica borrowed his phone...<br /> "It seems you know now who it was." Cynthia noticed his evasive look and had her suspicions. She smiled through her tears, "Nathan, I'm your wife. I'm the one being framed."<br /> Kelly quickly interjected, "Nathan, don't fall for her act. She's just looking for an excuse..."<br /> "This is between me and my husband. It's not your place to interfere," Cynthia retorted, showing her temper in front of Nathan for the first time.<br /> "You..." Kelly was furious and about to retort.<br /> However, Nathan had made up his mind at that moment. "I sent the text. I got tied up, sure, but that's no excuse for you cheating!"<br /> "It seems this is your choice, then." Cynthia's heart turned cold. Despite knowing she was wronged, he still chose to defend that hypocritical woman. She couldn't believe this was the man she loved.<br /> Nathan didn't show any sign of guilt. "Cynthia, it's you who fooled around with another man. Who else is there to blame?"<br /> Even though he felt somewhat uncomfortable about what Jessica did, he still firmly sided with her.<br /> "I was blind to have trusted the wrong person."<br /> Cynthia closed her eyes, and when she opened them moments later, they were clear and resolved. "Nathan, let's get a divorce."<br /> <br /> "Cynthia, what on earth are you thinking?" Nathan frowned slightly while Kelly's eyes flickered with surprise.<br /> Cynthia gave a self-mocking smile. "Nathan, I'm not someone who clings to what I can't have. Remember, I'm the one walking away from you, not the other way around."<br /> With those words, Cynthia felt a sudden clarity in her heart.<br /> "Cynthia, you're the one who messed up, but here you are, playing word games. Are you threatening Nathan?" Kelly said, secretly pleased.<br /> Cynthia glanced coldly at her. "Kelly, sometimes, you should just stay quiet."<br /> But Nathan's response caught Cynthia off guard. "I don't agree to the divorce."<br /> Cynthia let out a bitter laugh. "Isn't this what you've always wanted? Now that I'm stepping aside, you can be with Jessica happily ever after. Why disagree?<br /> "Or is there something more you're after, something you haven't gotten from me yet?" Cynthia's tone shifted, causing a subtle change in the expressions of the two before her.<br /> She didn't think herself so self-absorbed to believe Nathan still had feelings for her. Their reactions pretty much confirmed her suspicions.<br /> "I guess I was right." Cynthia curled up her lips. "So, Nathan, what's it gonna take for you to sign those divorce papers?"<br /> Nathan's eyes were deep and solemn. At this point, there was nothing left to hide. "Jessica's really sick, Cynthia, and you're the only one who can donate a kidney to save her. That's my only condition. Help her, and you won't regret it, I promise."<br /> Cynthia was thunderstruck, her voice hoarse with disbelief. "You mean, this whole time...you were just after my kidney?"<br /> "Jessica is the only one Nathan loves. Why else would he marry you if not to save her?" Kelly sneered, and Nathan's look confirmed that she was right.<br /> Cynthia felt a chill in her heart. It all made sense now. Nathan had initially balked at his grandfather Mark Richardson's suggestion of marrying Cynthia. He had been adamant about marrying Jessica instead, only to abruptly change his mind when Cynthia was nearly ready to walk away.<br /> She had hoped that, over time, Nathan might come to love her. But she realized now that from the very start, he had been scheming for her kidney!<br /> "Cynthia," Nathan said, softening his tone deliberately. "Just help me out this one time, and I promise to keep today's drama under wraps. I'll make it worth your while, enough to start over somewhere far away."<br /> "In your dreams, Nathan." Cynthia emphasized each word. "Sure, I had feelings for you, but not enough to degrade myself like this."<br /> "Looks like you choose the hard way." Nathan, never one with a good temper, immediately hardened his stance. "If you refuse to donate a kidney to Jessica, I will absolutely not agree to the divorce."<br /> Cynthia laughed angrily and retorted, "Fine by me. Do you have any idea how hard I worked to marry you? If you want to grow old with me, then so be it."<br /> "Cynthia!" Nathan's face soured. He was about to speak when Cynthia ruthlessly cut him off.<br /> "I just give you one chance, Nathan. Be at the Courthouse entrance at 9 AM sharp tomorrow. If you don't show up..."<br /> Cynthia smirked coldly. "Then even better. Jessica can forget about marrying into the Richardson family. And I'll make sure to remind you that you'll be a cuckolds for the rest of your life!"<br /> With that, Cynthia turned and left, not bothering to give Nathan or Kelly a second glance.<br /> "Nathan, what if she refuses the surgery? What about Jessica?" Kelly, watching Cynthia's retreating figure, feigned urgency.<br /> Nathan's gaze was deep. "Don't worry. I'll find a way to make her agree."<br /> As Cynthia stepped out of the hotel, a sleek Rolls-Royce Phantom suddenly pulled up, blocking her path.<br /> The window rolled down, showing a woman in her forties, still exuding charm, a face often seen on financial news.<br /> "You're right on time, Mom." Recognizing the woman, Cynthia wasn't surprised at all, her voice and posture shifting to something more dignified.<br /> "Get in," Heather Brooks said calmly.<br /> With a deep breath, Cynthia got into the back seat. Throughout the ride, they hardly talked to each other.<br /> In Litharia, Jenkins Villa stood majestically in the most coveted scenic area, home to the affluent Jenkins family.<br /> "I've heard the story between you and Nathan. So, have you finally seen Nathan's true colors?"<br /> In the living room of Jenkins Villa, Heather sipped her coffee, looking at Cynthia indifferently. "It's time for you to come back and take over the family business."

I took the ring off and threw it at him.<br /> ————————<br /> "Found it " Jessica said running into the room with a bottle of our favourite beverage. <br /> I had just gotten Jayson to sleep in his bed after the rough day we had. Jayson is only 6 months old and just like any young boy he loves his father. But Leon has a demanding job and most of the time comes home just in time to play with his son. <br /> Me and Leon met 6 years ago at a wedding and we instantly fell in love you could say. I promised myself that I wouldn't get in a relationship however when Leon was at the same school as me it was hard to stay away. A baby wasn't really in his plans. <br /> The thing that most attracted me to him was that he had this plan, had his future all mapped out. He wasn't messing around he knew what he wanted and was hungry for success. You try and tell me that isn't attractive. <br /> Last night me and leon were arguing about how he never spent time with his son. I wanted him to create a bond with Jayson but he is too focused on his growing company rather than his fast growing son. <br /> I screamed and hit him and I ended up in our bed alone after he shoved a nights worth of clothes in a bag and left. He had the money to go anywhere, where he would sleep tonight didn't worry me. <br /> All couples argue I know that, but there's only so much I can take. It's either about him not being home or the countless times i accuse him of prioritising other women over me. After all I was just the woman who stayed at home taking care of our son. <br /> I stay home most days with taking shifts at my brothers shop as his co-owner. He doesn't like how i am in charge of taking care of jayson but he was helpful in providing me with a job that i didn't have to leave the house for. <br /> " you can't seriously be happy with Leon " Jess, my best friend says as we watched a tv show in the lounge. I had invited her over to stay the night after telling her the fight we had last night. <br /> This was a usual event for us, every week we fought. <br /> I looked at her " I can't just be selfish Jess, I have my son to think about and he deserves to have a life with his parents, both of them" I tell her. <br /> She doesn't have children so she can't understand that you just have to sacrifice for your child. <br /> " Jayson may only be 6 months but he would never want you to suffer. Leon doesn't deserve you and you're sacrificing way too much for him " As you can tell Jess isn't Leon's fan. At the beginning of our relationship she adored him but recently He has been given her reasons to despise him. <br /> " just think about it at least " she added on as she turned to face the screen again. <br /> I nodded " I will " I replied to her, my eyes falling to my phone. It was depressing that I kept looking at my phone waiting for him to message me. We watched tv for the rest of the night until both of us fell asleep. <br /> I woke up at 5 am when I heard my son crying. He was screaming my name from his room, like he always does when he wakes up from his sleep. <br /> I grabbed my jumper and rushed to meet Jayson who was sat up in his bed. <br /> " oh my sweet baby mummy's here" I said picking his up and bringing him into my chest. <br /> His head rested on my chest as I rubbed his back. His cries we calming down now as he leant on my chest, he could probably feel my beating heart. <br /> Jess joined me in the room with a bottle of milk for him. I knew he needed to be changed and probably was wondering where his father was. <br /> I placed him down and grabbed a brand-new nappy and started to change him as Jess made funny faces at him to distract him. <br /> " you think we can get him into this" Jess said pulling out a black and white outfit from around her back. <br /> I laughed because she always loved dressing him up in cute outfits. When she came to visit me at the hospital after delivering Jayson she already had his going home outfit ready. <br /> She loved Jay just like her own and I knew as soon as I found out I was pregnant that she was going to be his god mother. I didn't really have a choice though. <br /> Her face when I asked her was something of a surprised one because I had only found out a few days before that she had slept with my brother. Neither of them wanted anything more but I was annoyed that they wouldn't tell me. <br /> When I called them to the house they thought I was going to be angry and possibly hate them but I actually invited them over to tell them I was pregnant and for them to be my sons god parents. <br /> At the time my brother thought I was having a girl. <br /> " here you try and get him in there" I passed over Jayson. <br /> She happily started to change him. She occasionally tickled him to get him to break out into giggles. <br /> I decided to have a shower before I needed to make him breakfast. My phone was vibrating with different notifications before I could even open the large glass doors. <br /> I found a few images from last night with Leon and his business partner at an event. <br /> Jealousy overcame my mind as I noticed how he was smiling around Emily he was happy. His arm was around her waist. <br /> There was a video of them talking that random people were tagging me in. Leaving all types of comments that were implying a lot of different things. <br /> I had received a lot of messages from friends with advice and support. This is the first time that they had been seen together in the media but for me, I have seen this many times. <br /> I placed my phone down and jumped into the shower. I let the water drip down my body I tried not to be too bothered about it but my eyes were trailing down my body. <br /> He used to love my curves, he would admire my body and he would worship me like I was some one in a million woman. <br /> These days I don't get any of that attention. Now it's on a different woman, maybe my post baby body was unattractive for him now. <br /> Pushing my new found insecurities to the side I finished showering and got dressed. <br /> I found Jay and Jess in the lounge sitting watching a show on the tv. <br /> I smiled. I don't know what I would do without Jayson. <br /> Another vibrate brought me back to my phone. <br /> Relationship on the rocks? Leon appears to enjoy a night away from his family with Emily. See pictures. <br /> It read. <br /> Someone had mentioned me on Instagram with numerous pictures showing Leon with that same woman. <br /> As I scrolled through my heart broke when I saw the picture. <br /> " babe? " Jess said standing in front of me as I stared at my phone. <br /> She took the phone from me?and gasped. Clearly she hadn't expected him to do that to me. <br /> Why would he cheat on me. He didn't even have the decency to break up with me before he goes and pecks another woman. <br /> He's lucky we're only engaged, it makes me wonder why he bothered to propose when he would just do this to me. <br /> " Stay with Jayson I'm going to find this son of a woman" I said walking back into my room and grabbing my boots and jacket. This was the final straw, I was not going to be made a joke by Leon. <br /> She cradled Jayson as she watched me. " I'm sorry babe, you Sure you don't want to calm down first" I could tell that she was nervous of what I was going to do. <br /> " no, can't you see he's taken advantage of me, sitting back and being the perfect girlfriend. I won't let my kind heart let him get away with this" I said grabbing random things and shoving them into a bag. <br /> At this point I didn't even know what I was shoving into my bag. <br /> I messaged my brother quickly telling him to come and bring three large suitcases. <br /> This is him home I don't want to be here. Not where we created this life together. <br /> " I know. Call me if you need anything" she said watching me run around the room. <br /> I nodded before walking out the door and running over to my car. Thank god I bought this car myself and not relied on Leon to provide everything. <br /> It was already 10 in the morning so I knew he would be at the office. I drove to the address and pulled up to the entrance. Not caring I was blocking the door with my car. <br /> I smiled at the doorman. " don't worry I won't be long " I said throwing him the keys. He gulped as he ran towards the car, probably to move it out of the way. <br /> As soon as I walked inside, I noticed that people were staring at me. Some with serious faces and others were probably itching to make fun of me. It truly hurts knowing how many restless nights I spent here at the beginning when there were just 5 employees here. <br /> I walked up to his floor and noticed the alarming look that his assistant was giving me. She jumped out her seat. <br /> " Charlize, he's in a meeting can I get you a drink maybe, coffee" she smiles at me stopping me from bursting through his dark brown doors, leading to his multimillion-pound office. <br /> Didn't know we were on first name basis if I'm being honest. Kelly is one example of a woman who tried to steal my man. <br /> I stared her down " No I'm fine. If he's in a meeting, I'll just wait for him here" I said walking over and sitting on the sofa. I crossed my legs and leant back. My mind was clouded with fury I didn't even feel like crying. <br /> I crossed my legs and waited patiently. <br /> " okay " she mumbled quickly running to her office probably to give my loving fiance a heads up. Would be a good idea. <br /> I laughed when I found Jess sharing a video of her trashing his office at the house. My brother could be seen in the background trying to not laugh. <br /> The view count was crazy. <br /> It wasn't long before I saw her walk out his office. <br /> You have got to be kidding. <br /> She didn't make eye contact with me she tried to escape but I stepped up to her. Her alarmed and scared eyes were amusing. I was itching to smile. <br /> " I know you hate me but please don't make a scene here. We are running a business here " she tells me looking around. <br /> Her staff were poking their heads out their offices trying to get a good look. <br /> " Of course, sorry I'm just a dumb housewife so I don't know anything about business" her smile soon disappeared. Even she knows what I did at the beginning of this company. <br /> I made the motion like I was about to leave but instead of just walking away I brought my hand up and slapped her right across the face. <br /> The slap echoed and people gasped, probably didn't believe that would dare touch her. Security were already heading my way, speaking into their . She held her hand up to them. They stopped walking. <br /> " men don't know how to keep their manhood in their pants. Leon didn't have a single <br /> Bone in his body that thought about my family or his son. But I hoped that you would have" I said to her. <br /> She looked slightly guilty but she didn't say anything. Probably lost for words. <br /> I turned around and found Leon standing at the door of his office his eyes showing guilt, sadness, regret and pain. <br /> " you want to do this here or inside" I said standing in front of him. He wasn't making any room for me to go inside. <br /> As soon as we got inside, he reached for me. I slapped his hands away. <br /> " Don't touch me" I shouted at him pointing my finger at him. He didn't look surprised at my reaction. <br /> Leon wasn't stupid. <br /> " Liz please, I can explain" I moaned. Why do they always start like that. <br /> I'm not that difficult, if he wanted another woman we could easily break up and he would still see his son without a problem. <br /> " I've sat back for way too long. Watched you become this man with an office, nice cars a beautiful son and you still want more" I laughed thinking at how stupid I had been. Blind, I was blind. <br /> He leant back against the wall. His hands moving to loosen his tie. <br /> Stressed are we. <br /> " she's not you, baby,I would never choose her over you" he says stepping forward and coming towards me. <br /> I felt sick. Is that supposed to make it all okay. <br /> "Tell me something was she just in here, her lips around you huh? I said coming face to face with him. <br /> I needed to vent, scream. <br /> My words surprised him. He glared at me " don't be so vulgar Of course not" he tried to defend himself. Key word, tried. <br /> Probably didn't think I'd go and find out for myself. <br /> I grabbed his belt and dropped my hand underneath his pants. <br /> He stiffened. This proved nothing for me but it was fun to see him squirm. <br /> " you have ruined everything we built and if you think I'm to going to forgive you because you claim to have drilled-up you will need some serious help Leon" I screamed at him. <br /> He held onto my shoulders " what are you going to do leave me. We have a son you're my fiance you're mine Charlize " he said bringing me close to him. <br /> I had to laugh. Now he wants to remember we are a family, that he has a son. <br /> Makes me sick. Where were these thoughts last night. <br /> My hands pushed him back, I had no control over my anger, my frustration. <br /> " Don't forget your place" he said lifting up my chin and staring down at me. Last year I would have fallen weak to his charms. <br /> My fingers moved to the over exaggerated diamond ring on my finger. <br /> I knew he was watching. " don't" he said, reaching for my hands. <br /> I turned around and continued sliding the ring off my finger. Once it was off, I threw it at his chest. It dropped to the floor right between his legs. <br /> " I won't sit back and let you treat me like Leon. I will never take you away from your son because I'm not a monster but you're going to have to fight for his time. He deserved your time and love but you'd rather cheat on us" <br /> I moved around his body reaching for the door. <br /> " I can provide for him more than enough. What makes you think the judge will let you have full rights to our son" he said just before I opened the door. <br /> His words made me stop. <br /> " you're a intelligent man Leon but that was honestly the most stupidest thing you could have ever said" <br /> With those words registering in his brain I walked out the office. My head held high and my future to look forward to now. <br /> ---<br /> My brother George, helped me move into my mother's house all day. When mum saw her two children together helping each other out she was happy. From many problems growing up I guess this was a miracle. <br /> My phone was still blowing up. The countless messages and calls from Leon. <br /> 15 missed calls from Leon <br /> Liz answer the phone <br /> Baby you have to listen to me hear me out. <br /> I need you, I need Jayson <br /> Charlize <br /> The next morning, I decided to head to the park with Jayson. I believe that some fresh air would do him just right. <br /> Mum was taking a long sleep and I knew she had a dinner party with her best friends tonight. <br /> " c'mon jay jay lets go out, "I said strapping him into his pushchair. <br /> He found the roof of the pram to be very interesting to him. <br /> I walked for ten minutes to the nearest park. As soon as I arrived little girls came running over instantly recognising Jayson. <br /> He's a hit what can I say. <br /> " Oh, Lizzy look at him he's holding my pinky," a girl says laughing. I looked over and rightly so Jayson was tightly holding onto this girls finger for dear life. <br /> " clearly he misses you," I said to her. <br /> A group of young girls were all looking at Jayson. They loved him and I knew when they were older they would be great candidates for babysitters. Maybe I should start getting contacts numbers. <br /> I sat back and watched as they fussed around with Jayson. Jay being the ladies man welcomed the attention and loved it. <br /> He's going to be trouble when he's older I swear. <br /> I thought that I would be at peace her in the park surrounded by children. The only problems they would have is wondering who's turn it was on the slide. <br /> If only my life was that simple. <br /> My eyes narrowed in on an oddly familiar figure. Standing leaning against a black Mercedes. When he knew that I saw him he made his way over. The mothers of the other kids watched him as he marched across the park. <br /> " how did you find me, " I said as Leon sat beside me, a little too close for my liking. <br /> Jayson was already wiggling around in his seat when his eyes met Leon's. Clearly, he missed his dad. <br /> "Go ahead," I said motioning for Leon to hold his son. <br /> I watched him pick up Leon and hold him in his arms. He waved Jayson's arms around and made funny faces. <br /> It hurt to see them like that. Knowing that we can never be that once happy family again. <br /> " what are you doing here," I asked him as he placed Jayson back down. <br /> He glances at me. " well if you're not going to answer me calls I'm going to have to find another way to get to see my family" <br /> He's using this family word a lot recently. Seemed to have slipped his mind when he was cheating on me. <br /> " well, you've seen him. We will work an agreement on when you can see him" I said to him bluntly. <br /> I know he wasn't happy with that outcome. <br /> " it's not just him I'm here to see."

I'm not someone who clings to what I can't have. Remember, I'm the one walking away from you, not the other way around."<br /> That night, she thought it was a sign that he had finally accepted her after marrying him for three years. She was set up. It was ridiculous that her husband helped others deceive her.<br /> "I don't agree to the divorce. Jessica's really sick, Cynthia, and you're the only one who can donate a kidney to save her. That's my only condition."<br /> "Cynthia," Nathan said, softening his tone deliberately. "Just help me out this one time, and I promise to keep today's drama under wraps. I'll make it worth your while, enough to start over somewhere far away..."<br /> Cynthia gave a self-mocking smile. "I just give you one chance, Nathan. Be at the Courthouse entrance at 9 AM sharp tomorrow. If you don't show up..."<br /> She smirked coldly. "Then even better. Jessica can forget about marrying into the Richardson family. And I'll make sure to remind you that you'll be a cuckolds for the rest of your life!"<br /> ————————<br /> <br /> In the presidential suite of the Winson Hotel in Litharia, a breathtakingly beautiful woman lay in bed. Her delicate skin was mostly hidden under a sheer blanket, with only her arms peeking out, bearing the faint red traces of a night filled with passion.<br /> Cynthia Jenkins stirred, letting out a soft moan as she woke from her deep sleep. She tried to get up, but her body, still weary and sore, sank back onto the bed.<br /> Memories from the night before came rushing back, bringing a faint smile to her face. For the first time in their three-year marriage, she and her husband, Nathan Richardson, had slept.<br /> She noticed Nathan wasn't in the room, and a tinge of disappointment flickered across her face, quickly replaced by composure.<br /> At the beginning of their marriage, Nathan had been distant, rarely showing any affection. Cynthia couldn't help but wonder if last night marked a turning point, a sign that he had finally accepted her.<br /> With a flicker of hope, Cynthia rose cheerfully from the bed. The moment her undressed feet touched the cold floor, she felt a sudden chill.<br /> Picking up a blue sapphire cufflink, oddly shaped and shimmering, from the floor, Cynthia widened her eyes in surprise. 'Could this be Nathan's?'<br /> Thinking of this, Cynthia smiled and placed the cufflink in her bag. Then, she went to freshen up herself before returning home.<br /> Cynthia had barely stepped out of the door when she ran into an unexpected visitor.<br /> "Cynthia?" The woman in front of her, dressed in a crisp white dress and possessing a sharp, piercing voice, was Kelly Dixon, the second lady of the Dixon family.<br /> Cynthia had always been at odds with the Dixon sisters. Jessica Dixon, the eldest lady of the family, was Nathan's first love. But today, Cynthia was in a good mood. "Kelly, what a surprise to see you here."<br /> "Indeed." Kelly sized up Cynthia with a mocking smile. "If I had arrived a bit earlier or later, I might have missed catching you in the act."<br /> She pointed at the red marks on Cynthia's arms with disdain. "What is this? You shameless woman! How dare you fooling around with other men behind Nathan's back!"<br /> Cynthia frowned, "What are you talking about?"<br /> "Cynthia, I've always known you're shameless, clinging to Nathan. But I never pegged you as someone who'd stoop this low." Kelly's eyes sparkled with the thrill of uncovering a juicy piece of gossip. "Are you really going to say these marks are from a night with Nathan?"<br /> Before Cynthia could utter a word, Kelly cut her off. "Please, cut the act. Nathan was at the hospital last night, staying by my sister's side. He was too busy to even catch a nap, much less waste time on someone like you."<br /> Cynthia's face changed dramatically. "Nathan was at the hospital?"<br /> "Where else would he be? You think he'd come to see you?" Kelly's voice was thick with sarcasm, as if she had just heard something ridiculous. "You've been caught sneaking around with someone else, and I'm not letting this slide so easily!<br /> "I'm going to show Nathan just how low you can go!" Kelly declared, her resolve unwavering. "I'm calling him right now to come over!"<br /> Cynthia couldn't absorb a word. Her mind went blank.<br /> If Nathan had spent the entire night in the hospital, then who was the man who had been so passionately entwined with her last night?<br /> A sudden realization made Cynthia's face darken.<br /> She had been set up!<br /> Yesterday was their three-year wedding anniversary, and Nathan surprisingly messaged her to meet at a hotel.<br /> Overjoyed and without a second thought, Cynthia rushed over. But when she arrived, Nathan texted to say he would be late and even ordered her some takeout.<br /> Cynthia, not sensing anything amiss and simply savoring the food, didn't expect to completely lose consciousness after finishing her meal. And that man last night...<br /> As Cynthia thought about everything that happened last night, her face turned deathly pale. 'How could this happen?'<br /> "Nathan already hates you for taking Jessica's place, and now, he'll never forgive you!" Kelly said triumphantly after a quick phone call. She stood firmly in Cynthia's path, blocking her exit.<br /> Cynthia hadn't even considered leaving. She felt a chill run down her spine. Besides, there weren't many people who could send a message using Nathan's phone.<br /> Soon, Nathan hurried down the corridor. "Kelly, did you need something from me?"<br /> He glanced at Cynthia with impatience. "What are you doing here? Jessica is still in the hospital. What are you up to now?"<br /> "I..." Cynthia opened her mouth, her mind in turmoil, unsure how to respond to him.<br /> "Nathan, I called you here," Kelly interjected eagerly. "I just so happened to see Cynthia sneaking out of a hotel room with some guy. It's serious, so I had to tell you."<br /> Nathan's face darkened instantly. "Cynthia, is it true?"<br /> "Would you believe me if I say I was framed?" Cynthia's eyes held a flicker of hope. "It was you who..."<br /> A smack came!<br /> Nathan's hand struck her face with a resounding slap, his expression cold and detached.<br /> "Pathetic! Why would anyone frame you?" Nathan's eyes blazed with anger at the sight of the red marks on Cynthia's arms.<br /> Even if he had no feelings for Cynthia, she was still his wife in name. This was nothing but a shame to him.<br /> Kelly watched with a smirk, stirring the pot. "Exactly, you must be delusional to think someone's out to get you.<br /> "Nathan, she's just lashing out because you're nice to Jessica. I caught her once, but who knows how many times she's cheated on you. Wake up, man."<br /> "What else do you have to say?" Nathan's gaze was filled with disgust.<br /> "What can I say?" Cynthia touched her burning cheek, a cold despair settling in her heart. She looked at Nathan, fighting the urge to laugh bitterly. "Nathan, don't you even want to ask why I ended up here?"<br /> It was ridiculous that her husband seemed to be solely dedicated to helping others deceive her.<br /> Nathan's eyes were full of disgust. "What exactly are you trying to say?"<br /> Cynthia felt utterly disheartened. She held up her phone, emphasizing each word. "Your phone sent me a message to come here. I trusted it and showed up. Did you text me, Nathan?"<br /> Nathan's gaze flickered. Last night, after getting treated, Jessica borrowed his phone...<br /> "It seems you know now who it was." Cynthia noticed his evasive look and had her suspicions. She smiled through her tears, "Nathan, I'm your wife. I'm the one being framed."<br /> Kelly quickly interjected, "Nathan, don't fall for her act. She's just looking for an excuse..."<br /> "This is between me and my husband. It's not your place to interfere," Cynthia retorted, showing her temper in front of Nathan for the first time.<br /> "You..." Kelly was furious and about to retort.<br /> However, Nathan had made up his mind at that moment. "I sent the text. I got tied up, sure, but that's no excuse for you cheating!"<br /> "It seems this is your choice, then." Cynthia's heart turned cold. Despite knowing she was wronged, he still chose to defend that hypocritical woman. She couldn't believe this was the man she loved.<br /> Nathan didn't show any sign of guilt. "Cynthia, it's you who fooled around with another man. Who else is there to blame?"<br /> Even though he felt somewhat uncomfortable about what Jessica did, he still firmly sided with her.<br /> "I was blind to have trusted the wrong person."<br /> Cynthia closed her eyes, and when she opened them moments later, they were clear and resolved. "Nathan, let's get a divorce."<br /> <br /> "Cynthia, what on earth are you thinking?" Nathan frowned slightly while Kelly's eyes flickered with surprise.<br /> Cynthia gave a self-mocking smile. "Nathan, I'm not someone who clings to what I can't have. Remember, I'm the one walking away from you, not the other way around."<br /> With those words, Cynthia felt a sudden clarity in her heart.<br /> "Cynthia, you're the one who messed up, but here you are, playing word games. Are you threatening Nathan?" Kelly said, secretly pleased.<br /> Cynthia glanced coldly at her. "Kelly, sometimes, you should just stay quiet."<br /> But Nathan's response caught Cynthia off guard. "I don't agree to the divorce."<br /> Cynthia let out a bitter laugh. "Isn't this what you've always wanted? Now that I'm stepping aside, you can be with Jessica happily ever after. Why disagree?<br /> "Or is there something more you're after, something you haven't gotten from me yet?" Cynthia's tone shifted, causing a subtle change in the expressions of the two before her.<br /> She didn't think herself so self-absorbed to believe Nathan still had feelings for her. Their reactions pretty much confirmed her suspicions.<br /> "I guess I was right." Cynthia curled up her lips. "So, Nathan, what's it gonna take for you to sign those divorce papers?"<br /> Nathan's eyes were deep and solemn. At this point, there was nothing left to hide. "Jessica's really sick, Cynthia, and you're the only one who can donate a kidney to save her. That's my only condition. Help her, and you won't regret it, I promise."<br /> Cynthia was thunderstruck, her voice hoarse with disbelief. "You mean, this whole time...you were just after my kidney?"<br /> "Jessica is the only one Nathan loves. Why else would he marry you if not to save her?" Kelly sneered, and Nathan's look confirmed that she was right.<br /> Cynthia felt a chill in her heart. It all made sense now. Nathan had initially balked at his grandfather Mark Richardson's suggestion of marrying Cynthia. He had been adamant about marrying Jessica instead, only to abruptly change his mind when Cynthia was nearly ready to walk away.<br /> She had hoped that, over time, Nathan might come to love her. But she realized now that from the very start, he had been scheming for her kidney!<br /> "Cynthia," Nathan said, softening his tone deliberately. "Just help me out this one time, and I promise to keep today's drama under wraps. I'll make it worth your while, enough to start over somewhere far away."<br /> "In your dreams, Nathan." Cynthia emphasized each word. "Sure, I had feelings for you, but not enough to degrade myself like this."<br /> "Looks like you choose the hard way." Nathan, never one with a good temper, immediately hardened his stance. "If you refuse to donate a kidney to Jessica, I will absolutely not agree to the divorce."<br /> Cynthia laughed angrily and retorted, "Fine by me. Do you have any idea how hard I worked to marry you? If you want to grow old with me, then so be it."<br /> "Cynthia!" Nathan's face soured. He was about to speak when Cynthia ruthlessly cut him off.<br /> "I just give you one chance, Nathan. Be at the Courthouse entrance at 9 AM sharp tomorrow. If you don't show up..."<br /> Cynthia smirked coldly. "Then even better. Jessica can forget about marrying into the Richardson family. And I'll make sure to remind you that you'll be a cuckolds for the rest of your life!"<br /> With that, Cynthia turned and left, not bothering to give Nathan or Kelly a second glance.<br /> "Nathan, what if she refuses the surgery? What about Jessica?" Kelly, watching Cynthia's retreating figure, feigned urgency.<br /> Nathan's gaze was deep. "Don't worry. I'll find a way to make her agree."<br /> As Cynthia stepped out of the hotel, a sleek Rolls-Royce Phantom suddenly pulled up, blocking her path.<br /> The window rolled down, showing a woman in her forties, still exuding charm, a face often seen on financial news.<br /> "You're right on time, Mom." Recognizing the woman, Cynthia wasn't surprised at all, her voice and posture shifting to something more dignified.<br /> "Get in," Heather Brooks said calmly.<br /> With a deep breath, Cynthia got into the back seat. Throughout the ride, they hardly talked to each other.<br /> In Litharia, Jenkins Villa stood majestically in the most coveted scenic area, home to the affluent Jenkins family.<br /> "I've heard the story between you and Nathan. So, have you finally seen Nathan's true colors?"<br /> In the living room of Jenkins Villa, Heather sipped her coffee, looking at Cynthia indifferently. "It's time for you to come back and take over the family business."

I'm not someone who clings to what I can't have. Remember, I'm the one walking away from you, not the other way around."<br /> That night, she thought it was a sign that he had finally accepted her after marrying him for three years. She was set up. It was ridiculous that her husband helped others deceive her.<br /> "I don't agree to the divorce.

Jessica can forget about marrying into the Richardson family. And I'll make sure to remind you that you'll be a cuckolds for the rest of your life!"<br /> ————————<br /> <br /> In the presidential suite of the Winson Hotel in Litharia, a breathtakingly beautiful woman lay in bed. Her delicate skin was mostly hidden under a sheer blanket, with only her arms peeking out, bearing the faint red traces of a night filled with passion.<br /> Cynthia Jenkins stirred, letting out a soft moan as she woke from her deep sleep. She tried to get up, but her body, still weary and sore, sank back onto the bed.<br /> Memories from the night before came rushing back, bringing a faint smile to her face. For the first time in their three-year marriage, she and her husband, Nathan Richardson, had slept.<br /> She noticed Nathan wasn't in the room, and a tinge of disappointment flickered across her face, quickly replaced by composure.<br /> At the beginning of their marriage, Nathan had been distant, rarely showing any affection. Cynthia couldn't help but wonder if last night marked a turning point, a sign that he had finally accepted her.<br /> With a flicker of hope, Cynthia rose cheerfully from the bed. The moment her undressed feet touched the cold floor, she felt a sudden chill.<br /> Picking up a blue sapphire cufflink, oddly shaped and shimmering, from the floor, Cynthia widened her eyes in surprise. 'Could this be Nathan's?'<br /> Thinking of this, Cynthia smiled and placed the cufflink in her bag. Then, she went to freshen up herself before returning home.<br /> Cynthia had barely stepped out of the door when she ran into an unexpected visitor.<br /> "Cynthia?" The woman in front of her, dressed in a crisp white dress and possessing a sharp, piercing voice, was Kelly Dixon, the second lady of the Dixon family.<br /> Cynthia had always been at odds with the Dixon sisters. Jessica Dixon, the eldest lady of the family, was Nathan's first love. But today, Cynthia was in a good mood. "Kelly, what a surprise to see you here."<br /> "Indeed." Kelly sized up Cynthia with a mocking smile. "If I had arrived a bit earlier or later, I might have missed catching you in the act."<br /> She pointed at the red marks on Cynthia's arms with disdain. "What is this? You shameless woman! How dare you fooling around with other men behind Nathan's back!"<br /> Cynthia frowned, "What are you talking about?"<br /> "Cynthia, I've always known you're shameless, clinging to Nathan. But I never pegged you as someone who'd stoop this low." Kelly's eyes sparkled with the thrill of uncovering a juicy piece of gossip. "Are you really going to say these marks are from a night with Nathan?"<br /> Before Cynthia could utter a word, Kelly cut her off. "Please, cut the act. Nathan was at the hospital last night, staying by my sister's side. He was too busy to even catch a nap, much less waste time on someone like you."<br /> Cynthia's face changed dramatically. "Nathan was at the hospital?"<br /> "Where else would he be? You think he'd come to see you?" Kelly's voice was thick with sarcasm, as if she had just heard something ridiculous. "You've been caught sneaking around with someone else, and I'm not letting this slide so easily!<br /> "I'm going to show Nathan just how low you can go!" Kelly declared, her resolve unwavering. "I'm calling him right now to come over!"<br /> Cynthia couldn't absorb a word. Her mind went blank.<br /> If Nathan had spent the entire night in the hospital, then who was the man who had been so passionately entwined with her last night?<br /> A sudden realization made Cynthia's face darken.<br /> She had been set up!<br /> Yesterday was their three-year wedding anniversary, and Nathan surprisingly messaged her to meet at a hotel.<br /> Overjoyed and without a second thought, Cynthia rushed over.

What happened to your sister-in-law was her own doing, Theon, but no matter how much I plead with you, you never believe me. I really can't stand you anymore. Let's get a divorce. Did you hear it? I want you out of my life. I, Luciana Estelle Ortiz, finally reject you as my partner. You make me sick. "<br /> ————————<br /> "Kelly lost her child because of you!" Alpha Phillip said angrily. <br /> "What do you mean? I didn't do anything to her. Kelly is lying. She is just looking for someone to blame for her carelessness but I swear, I didn't push her," I countered to defend my innocent self from their harsh accusation. I looked up to Theon who was standing right beside me. My eyes, begged for him to take my side, to believe me this time.<br /> "You should be kneeling down for mercy, Estelle. Begging for us to forgive you but instead—"<br /> "I am sorry to be impolite but why would I do any of that thing? I am not at fault here," I cut him off and the alpha laughed sarcastically<br /> "Look at this woman you are calling your mate, Theon. If you weren't a fool and stubborn back then. You won't end up with her."<br /> I gasped in shock when Theon held me by my shoulder and pressed me down on the floor, forcing me to kneel before the Alpha.<br /> "Let go of me, Theon," I said in between gritted teeth, trying to wag his hand off my shoulder. He only held me down tighter as if his patience is about to run out too, "You can't force me to apologize to her. It is not my fault. Let me go!"<br /> "Kneel down or I am going to cut off the tie between us and reject you as my mate. Choose one, Lucianna Estelle," he whispered that made me lose all of my strength.<br /> I could not help it but smile bitterly as Theon's harsh words played on my mind like a broken record. By the way he stares at me, I already knew that he won't take my side but him telling me that he will cut off our bond and reject me as his mate is too much.<br /> Theon pressed me tighther on the floor, showing no mercy, not even a chance to look up and meet his father's eyes.<br /> I lost the count of times he have turned his back on me. Most of the time, I will let it slide and shrug it off like it didn't happen but not this time. I don't think I can easily forgive him.<br /> I am not really sure which is more painful. These scratches and tiny wound that I got in my knees or the bleeding of my heart. I never lied to them but why do they find it so hard to believe me?<br /> Alpha Phillip sighs heavily, "Let me ask you one more time, Estelle. Why did you push your sister-in law in the pool and cause her miscarriage?" I can still sense the raw anger on Alpha Phillip's voice that he is trying to mask with the calm look on his face.<br /> I finally find the courage to once again see him eye to eye. I straightened my back, redeeming my composure.<br /> "I am sorry," I murmured. Of course he is not pleased to hear those words from me, but the Alpha is satisfied that I am finally apologizing for the mistake that I didn't commit in the first place. That's what I thought.<br /> "I know you all want to hear that from me but as much as I hate to disappoint all of you. I have too. For the nth time. I am going to say it again and I will remain firm with my words and claim. I didn't push Kelly. It was her fault. She lost her baby because she was careless and—" I closed my eyes. My heart jump out of its cage to runaway as shock consumed it.<br /> Alpha Phillip threw a porcelain vase in my direction. I was fortunate enough that it didn't hit me but it pieces flew threw my direction, leaving a scratch on the left side of my cheeks.<br /> My hand slowly crawl up to my cheek, trailing the blood that is coming out of my skin.<br /> "I can't believe how arrogant you have become, Estelle! Is it because your husband is close to becoming the Alpha of the pack? Because you are going to become the Luna? Is this why you are challenging me and my authority?" Alpha Phillip screamed angrily. His shoulder shakes and the color of his eyes changes from gray to golden brown, a sign that if I continue to get on his nerve. His wolf will take over and everything would be more chaotic.<br /> "Alpha," Theon called his father but the Alpha ignored him completely.<br /> "Drag her out of this room. Out of my house. Make her kneel outside of the house until she gives in and confess the truth!" Alpha Phillip announced.<br /> Warren, Alpha Phillip's most trusted delta immediately oblige his words. He grabbed me by my left arm and pulls me to stand up from kneeling.<br /> I silently follow Warren's guidance as my eyes silently watch everyone else. Alpha Phillip glance at his youngest son and shakes his head in disappointment. He is probably blaming Theon for my rude attitude.<br /> As soon as Alpha Phillip stormed out of the private hall. Warren let go of my arm. His eyes made a quick scanning on me and then he turned to his bestfriend, Theon.<br /> "Really, Ares Theon? You can't even say something to defend your wife? If the Alpha orders for his warrior to take her life, still you won't say anything, do you?" Warren mocked him.<br /> "It's her fault. What do you want me to do? If you were so worried about her then why didn't you say something? You too were quiet the whole time," Theon scoffed. He gazes at my direction one last time before he followed his father's footstep.<br /> "Between you two. It should be you who needs to cut the bond. When will you save your self from this, Estelle?" Warren asked. I smiled weakly at him.<br /> Warren no longer needs to walk me out of the house. I did it on my own. On the cobblestone in front of the pack house. I kneeled, with my knees pressing on the small stone in the pavement, wincing in pain and struggling to maintain in my position is expected.<br /> "Miss Elle, you have to do it properly says the young master." A pair of female omega came to my side. They didn't even try to hide those insulting smile that they had plastered on their lips as they talk.<br /> I darted a glare at them that they ignored on purpose, "You have to spread your arms as you kneel. That is the proper way."<br /> "Excuse me? That is a punishment for someone like you. How dare you insult me like this? Have you forgotten who I am?" I asked in between gritted teeth.<br /> They only look at each other and giggles.<br /> "Why are you getting mad at us? It's a word of your husband, Miss. Not ours. Also, we haven't forgotten who you are. You are the future Alpha's forsaken wife," she said.<br /> In time to that. The reason why the sky looks so dark and gloomy finally fall. Rain pours down and the two of them immediately rush themselves inside, leaving me all by myself.<br /> I lifted my arm and spread it on mid-air as I continued to kneel in front of the pack house.<br /> The rain started to fall harder. Strong and cold winds blew. All that is left for me to do to somehow keep myself warm is to hug my body.<br /> I heard from some of the servant that walked passed by me earlier that Alpha Phillip cancelled his birthday celebration because of what had happened and I am sure that everyone in the pack are blaming me for what had happened.<br /> I licked my lower lip. The rain has finally stop from pouring. Darkness spread in the sky like a wild fire. The omega that Theon asked to check on me as I am being harshly punish is now asleep.<br /> I have been in this position for God know's how long. I am dying to leave. My body is getting a lot weaker and I feel feverish. The coldness didn't left my body even though the rain is already gone. In fact, my whole body is trembling and my head is starting to feel terrible too.<br /> Now that there is no one watching me. I can choose to stand up and leave but my pride is taking over me. I would rather suffer than confess that I did something that I didn't do. Everyone has turned their back on me. I can't do the same thing to myself. If I can no longer give myself some respect and integrity. No one else would.<br /> "Estelle, you need to get through this. You have to be strong," I whispered to myself as drop of tears escaped from my eyes.<br /> Just when the lid of my eyes is about to close. I lightly shake my head to keep myself awake. I even bite my lower lip until I tasted blood coming out from it.<br /> The whole night had passed. My clothes that were once drenched and dripping because of the rain has dried off and the sun is starting to light up the whole world yet I am still kneeling. I could no longer feel my knees.<br /> I had my eyes glued on the cobblestone. It only moves when I saw a pair of leather shoes inches away from my bleeding knees. My eyes crawls from the pair of shoes up to his legs, upper body and finall to his chest.<br /> "Theon," I whispered my husband's name using the last drop of my strength and energy.<br /> He lowered his height so our face would met.<br /> "Will you now admit to your wrong doing, Estelle? Come on! Give up and say that you did it to Kelly so we'll be done and through. That is all what the alpha wants to hear. For you to apologize to Kelly and to him. Do you really find it hard to do? Lower your pride a little more, will you?" he said. I chuckled bitterly and look up to him with nothing but hatred and disgust.<br /> Theon was caught off-guard by the emotions in my eyes.<br /> "Do you really think that I am that gullible, Theon? Why would I let myself suffer overnight if I'll end up admiting that I am the one at fault? I'll stand firm with my words because that's the truth. The only person to blame for the tragedy that happened to your sister-in law is no one but herself, Theon... but you're never going to believe me no matter how I begged for you to listen to me," I took a pause and breathe deeply. I need to be courageous enough to open my mouth for the second time, "I really can't stand you anymore, Theon. Let's get a divorce. Do you hear me? I want you gone in my life. I, Lucianna Estelle Ortiz is finally rejecting you as my mate. I should have done this ages ago. I should have listen to my father when he told me that you are no good for me. He was right. The Moon God made a mistake making you my mate. You disgust me."<br /> This could be an impulsive decision because I am hurting at the moment but at the same time. I know too well that this is the only chance that I have. I need to walk away from Theon right now because I know that it would took me a thousand years to find the courage to leave him if I let this chance slide.<br /> I rose to my feet and slowly make my way inside of the pack house even though I can barely stand up.<br /> My inner wolf is crying and dying in pain at the same time as I packed everything that I own in this room inside of my luggagr bag. Once I am done, I zipped it up and my eyes landed on my ring finger.<br /> I closed my eyes to stop myself from crying. I removed the wedding band from my finger and left it on the side table.<br /> I am feeling dizzy and hot. It felt like any moment from now. I am going to lose my balance and fall to the ground because of my fever but I can't afford to stay here any longer.<br /> As I was dragging my luggages down the staircase. Theon happened to be walking upstairs. I immediately look away from his direction and continue to drag my luggage and myself out of the pack house that serves as my home for years.<br /> The deltas guarding the gate open them up for me. I looked back at the pack house as bitterness swirls in my system. Theon can no longer wait for me to leave this place. He even told their guards to let me leave as soon as I can.<br /> Of course he can't. Although I am his mate. His heart belongs to someone else. It belongs to Kelly and he never had the chance to had it back even if she was married to his older brother. Theon waited for his chance to be with her the way I am waiting for him to look at me the same way he looks at her.<br /> I am such a fool for hoping that something like that would happen.<br /> The moment I opened my eyes. I saw a white ceiling and that blinding white light. My body feels weak. It's aching all over, on the second thought. It's not my body that is making me weak and fragile but my wounded inner wolf who is mourning and grieving over the fact that I rejected her mate, Theon's inner wolf before they become intimate.<br /> That's right. Theon were never intimate with me and we were married for three years. The first time that he pecked me was when we got married and if I remember it right. That was the last time too.<br /> The door opened and when my eyes trails to that direction. I saw Beau, my childhood bestfriend walked in with a paperbag on his hand.<br /> "H-Hey," I greeted him. He walk straight to my hospital bed. He flashes a bright smile that soothes me somehow.<br /> "Where am I?" I continued to look around and my eyes gets to answer the question that had escape from my lips. I am in the hospital and I can't believe that I have these medical things attached on my body.<br /> I hold on to my dextrose and was about to take them off when Beau stopped me.<br /> "Don't. You need that in order to gain some energy for your body." I smirked at him and continue to pull the needle out of my veins. Soon, I realized why he didn't want me to take these thing off.<br /> My wolf is too weak to heal me, but it's too late. I can put it back on my own. We are gonna need to call a nurse to put it back on me but I don't want anyone in my room at the moment.<br /> I pushed my upper body to get up from the bed and sit. Beau was quick to assist me. He put a pair of pillow to support my back.<br /> "I already know why I am here but why are you here? I can't remember how I got here," I said. The last thing that I can remember is me walking out of the pack house's gate.<br /> "Warren called me. He said you need me. When I arrived to pick you up. I saw you unconscious in front of their gate. It was raining. Would you mind telling me what happened? Why the guards let you in such state? What happened to your wolf, Estelle?"<br /> I looked away from his eyes. If there's someone I can never lie too. It's Beau. He can tell wether I am lying to him or not and I don't really want to talk about it.<br /> "I thought you'd prefer these over the hospital food. I got you your favorite pasta," he said.<br /> I immediately grab the paperbag from his hand. The pesto cheered me up somehow and it gave me energy too. Just when I was about to take the last bite from its aesthetically pleasing container. He opened his palm before my eyes, asking for something.<br /> I looked up to him with confusion dwelling in my eyes. "Hmm?"<br /> "Your phone. I will keep it for the mean time?" My eyebrow crane up.<br /> "Why would you want to keep my phone?"<br /> "Just give it to me. Deal with Theon and everything once you are well for the mean time. I want you to focus on getting better. I am not used in seeing you like this. I want the energetic and happy Lucianna Estelle." I pouted my lips. I already saw my phone on the table next to my hospital bed so I do know where to get them. Seconds after giving it to Beau. He turned it off and then he gestured me to finish eating my food.<br /> "You still eat like a kindergarten. I can't believe that you were to become the Luna of that pack," Beau said it mindlessly and when he realize that he said something that he shouldn't have. He presses his lips together.<br /> "I will go get something that you can use to clean up your face," he mumbled, changing the topic to ease the awkwardness between us.<br /> "No. Nevermind. I got it." I grabbed a wet wipes from the side table and clean myself. I decided that washing my face would be better and so I left my room to do it so in the comfort room because my room does not have one.<br /> "Have you seen the article about the Sullivans? It's crazy. From the moment I saw the second young master's wife. I know that she's no good. Just by seeing her gives me the irks." Hearing those nurse gossiping about me in the hallway made me stop from walking. I had to hide myself in the corner just so they wouldn't see me.<br /> "She is basically a murderer. She killed her sister-in law's baby. The only thing that is left to remind her of her late husband. I am glad that the heir to the throne is divorcing her. I don't like the Lucianna Estelle to become the Luna of the city and rule together with Alpha Theon. I'd rather have the soon to be Alpha married his brother's ex-wife than stick with her good for nothing wife..." they continued to talk about me.<br /> "But aren't they mated to each other? Theon and Estelle?"<br /> "Theon probably rejected her. Her wolf is struggling that is why she's here," said by the other nurse before they giggle as if my suffering brings them nothing but absolute joy.<br /> "These people. How dare them insult you like that. They know nothing." Beau was about to approach them when I managed to pulled his hand and make him stay by my side. I look at him and shake my head, telling him not to do anything about it.<br /> "I need a way more important favor from you, Atty. Beaumont Meadows. Will you help me with my divorce." Beau stared at me with his mouth half-opened.<br /> "You were the one who asked for divorce?"<br /> "Yes."<br /> Beau pulled me into a warm hug and whispers, "Finally."

My clothes that were once drenched and dripping because of the rain has dried off and the sun is starting to light up the whole world yet I am still kneeling. I could no longer feel my knees.<br /> I had my eyes glued on the cobblestone. It only moves when I saw a pair of leather shoes inches away from my bleeding knees. My eyes crawls from the pair of shoes up to his legs, upper body and finall to his chest.<br /> "Theon," I whispered my husband's name using the last drop of my strength and energy.<br /> He lowered his height so our face would met.<br /> "Will you now admit to your wrong doing, Estelle? Come on! Give up and say that you did it to Kelly so we'll be done and through. That is all what the alpha wants to hear. For you to apologize to Kelly and to him. Do you really find it hard to do? Lower your pride a little more, will you?" he said. I chuckled bitterly and look up to him with nothing but hatred and disgust.<br /> Theon was caught off-guard by the emotions in my eyes.<br /> "Do you really think that I am that gullible, Theon? Why would I let myself suffer overnight if I'll end up admiting that I am the one at fault? I'll stand firm with my words because that's the truth. The only person to blame for the tragedy that happened to your sister-in law is no one but herself, Theon... but you're never going to believe me no matter how I begged for you to listen to me," I took a pause and breathe deeply. I need to be courageous enough to open my mouth for the second time, "I really can't stand you anymore, Theon. Let's get a divorce. Do you hear me? I want you gone in my life. I, Lucianna Estelle Ortiz is finally rejecting you as my mate. I should have done this ages ago. I should have listen to my father when he told me that you are no good for me. He was right. The Moon God made a mistake making you my mate. You disgust me."<br /> This could be an impulsive decision because I am hurting at the moment but at the same time. I know too well that this is the only chance that I have. I need to walk away from Theon right now because I know that it would took me a thousand years to find the courage to leave him if I let this chance slide.<br /> I rose to my feet and slowly make my way inside of the pack house even though I can barely stand up.<br /> My inner wolf is crying and dying in pain at the same time as I packed everything that I own in this room inside of my luggagr bag. Once I am done, I zipped it up and my eyes landed on my ring finger.<br /> I closed my eyes to stop myself from crying. I removed the wedding band from my finger and left it on the side table.<br /> I am feeling dizzy and hot. It felt like any moment from now. I am going to lose my balance and fall to the ground because of my fever but I can't afford to stay here any longer.<br /> As I was dragging my luggages down the staircase. Theon happened to be walking upstairs. I immediately look away from his direction and continue to drag my luggage and myself out of the pack house that serves as my home for years.<br /> The deltas guarding the gate open them up for me. I looked back at the pack house as bitterness swirls in my system. Theon can no longer wait for me to leave this place. He even told their guards to let me leave as soon as I can.<br /> Of course he can't. Although I am his mate. His heart belongs to someone else. It belongs to Kelly and he never had the chance to had it back even if she was married to his older brother. Theon waited for his chance to be with her the way I am waiting for him to look at me the same way he looks at her.<br /> I am such a fool for hoping that something like that would happen.<br /> The moment I opened my eyes. I saw a white ceiling and that blinding white light. My body feels weak. It's aching all over, on the second thought. It's not my body that is making me weak and fragile but my wounded inner wolf who is mourning and grieving over the fact that I rejected her mate, Theon's inner wolf before they become intimate.<br /> That's right. Theon were never intimate with me and we were married for three years. The first time that he pecked me was when we got married and if I remember it right. That was the last time too.<br /> The door opened and when my eyes trails to that direction. I saw Beau, my childhood bestfriend walked in with a paperbag on his hand.<br /> "H-Hey," I greeted him. He walk straight to my hospital bed. He flashes a bright smile that soothes me somehow.<br /> "Where am I?" I continued to look around and my eyes gets to answer the question that had escape from my lips. I am in the hospital and I can't believe that I have these medical things attached on my body.<br /> I hold on to my dextrose and was about to take them off when Beau stopped me.<br /> "Don't. You need that in order to gain some energy for your body." I smirked at him and continue to pull the needle out of my veins. Soon, I realized why he didn't want me to take these thing off.<br /> My wolf is too weak to heal me, but it's too late. I can put it back on my own. We are gonna need to call a nurse to put it back on me but I don't want anyone in my room at the moment.<br /> I pushed my upper body to get up from the bed and sit. Beau was quick to assist me. He put a pair of pillow to support my back.<br /> "I already know why I am here but why are you here? I can't remember how I got here," I said. The last thing that I can remember is me walking out of the pack house's gate.<br /> "Warren called me. He said you need me. When I arrived to pick you up. I saw you unconscious in front of their gate. It was raining. Would you mind telling me what happened? Why the guards let you in such state? What happened to your wolf, Estelle?"<br /> I looked away from his eyes. If there's someone I can never lie too. It's Beau. He can tell wether I am lying to him or not and I don't really want to talk about it.<br /> "I thought you'd prefer these over the hospital food. I got you your favorite pasta," he said.<br /> I immediately grab the paperbag from his hand. The pesto cheered me up somehow and it gave me energy too. Just when I was about to take the last bite from its aesthetically pleasing container. He opened his palm before my eyes, asking for something.<br /> I looked up to him with confusion dwelling in my eyes. "Hmm?"<br /> "Your phone. I will keep it for the mean time?" My eyebrow crane up.<br /> "Why would you want to keep my phone?"<br /> "Just give it to me. Deal with Theon and everything once you are well for the mean time. I want you to focus on getting better. I am not used in seeing you like this. I want the energetic and happy Lucianna Estelle." I pouted my lips. I already saw my phone on the table next to my hospital bed so I do know where to get them. Seconds after giving it to Beau. He turned it off and then he gestured me to finish eating my food.<br /> "You still eat like a kindergarten. I can't believe that you were to become the Luna of that pack," Beau said it mindlessly and when he realize that he said something that he shouldn't have. He presses his lips together.<br /> "I will go get something that you can use to clean up your face," he mumbled, changing the topic to ease the awkwardness between us.<br /> "No. Nevermind. I got it." I grabbed a wet wipes from the side table and clean myself. I decided that washing my face would be better and so I left my room to do it so in the comfort room because my room does not have one.<br /> "Have you seen the article about the Sullivans? It's crazy. From the moment I saw the second young master's wife. I know that she's no good. Just by seeing her gives me the irks." Hearing those nurse gossiping about me in the hallway made me stop from walking. I had to hide myself in the corner just so they wouldn't see me.<br /> "She is basically a murderer. She killed her sister-in law's baby. The only thing that is left to remind her of her late husband. I am glad that the heir to the throne is divorcing her. I don't like the Lucianna Estelle to become the Luna of the city and rule together with Alpha Theon. I'd rather have the soon to be Alpha married his brother's ex-wife than stick with her good for nothing wife..." they continued to talk about me.<br /> "But aren't they mated to each other? Theon and Estelle?"<br /> "Theon probably rejected her. Her wolf is struggling that is why she's here," said by the other nurse before they giggle as if my suffering brings them nothing but absolute joy.<br /> "These people. How dare them insult you like that. They know nothing." Beau was about to approach them when I managed to pulled his hand and make him stay by my side. I look at him and shake my head, telling him not to do anything about it.<br /> "I need a way more important favor from you, Atty. Beaumont Meadows. Will you help me with my divorce." Beau stared at me with his mouth half-opened.<br /> "You were the one who asked for divorce?"<br /> "Yes."<br /> Beau pulled me into a warm hug and whispers, "Finally."

Give up, say you did it to Kelly, and we're done. You're going to apologize to Kelly and him. Do you really find that hard to do? How about lowering your self-esteem a little more?" he said.<br /> "I will stand by my words because they are the truth. What happened to your sister-in-law was her own doing, Theon, but no matter how much I plead with you, you never believe me. I really can't stand you anymore. Let's get a divorce. Did you hear it? I want you out of my life. I, Luciana Estelle Ortiz, finally reject you as my partner. You make me sick. "<br /> ————————<br /> "Kelly lost her child because of you!" Alpha Phillip said angrily. <br /> "What do you mean? I didn't do anything to her. Kelly is lying. She is just looking for someone to blame for her carelessness but I swear, I didn't push her," I countered to defend my innocent self from their harsh accusation. I looked up to Theon who was standing right beside me. My eyes, begged for him to take my side, to believe me this time.<br /> "You should be kneeling down for mercy, Estelle. Begging for us to forgive you but instead—"<br /> "I am sorry to be impolite but why would I do any of that thing? I am not at fault here," I cut him off and the alpha laughed sarcastically<br /> "Look at this woman you are calling your mate, Theon. If you weren't a fool and stubborn back then. You won't end up with her."<br /> I gasped in shock when Theon held me by my shoulder and pressed me down on the floor, forcing me to kneel before the Alpha.<br /> "Let go of me, Theon," I said in between gritted teeth, trying to wag his hand off my shoulder. He only held me down tighter as if his patience is about to run out too, "You can't force me to apologize to her. It is not my fault. Let me go!"<br /> "Kneel down or I am going to cut off the tie between us and reject you as my mate. Choose one, Lucianna Estelle," he whispered that made me lose all of my strength.<br /> I could not help it but smile bitterly as Theon's harsh words played on my mind like a broken record. By the way he stares at me, I already knew that he won't take my side but him telling me that he will cut off our bond and reject me as his mate is too much.<br /> Theon pressed me tighther on the floor, showing no mercy, not even a chance to look up and meet his father's eyes.<br /> I lost the count of times he have turned his back on me. Most of the time, I will let it slide and shrug it off like it didn't happen but not this time. I don't think I can easily forgive him.<br /> I am not really sure which is more painful. These scratches and tiny wound that I got in my knees or the bleeding of my heart. I never lied to them but why do they find it so hard to believe me?<br /> Alpha Phillip sighs heavily, "Let me ask you one more time, Estelle. Why did you push your sister-in law in the pool and cause her miscarriage?" I can still sense the raw anger on Alpha Phillip's voice that he is trying to mask with the calm look on his face.<br /> I finally find the courage to once again see him eye to eye. I straightened my back, redeeming my composure.<br /> "I am sorry," I murmured. Of course he is not pleased to hear those words from me, but the Alpha is satisfied that I am finally apologizing for the mistake that I didn't commit in the first place. That's what I thought.<br /> "I know you all want to hear that from me but as much as I hate to disappoint all of you. I have too. For the nth time. I am going to say it again and I will remain firm with my words and claim. I didn't push Kelly. It was her fault. She lost her baby because she was careless and—" I closed my eyes. My heart jump out of its cage to runaway as shock consumed it.<br /> Alpha Phillip threw a porcelain vase in my direction. I was fortunate enough that it didn't hit me but it pieces flew threw my direction, leaving a scratch on the left side of my cheeks.<br /> My hand slowly crawl up to my cheek, trailing the blood that is coming out of my skin.<br /> "I can't believe how arrogant you have become, Estelle! Is it because your husband is close to becoming the Alpha of the pack? Because you are going to become the Luna? Is this why you are challenging me and my authority?" Alpha Phillip screamed angrily. His shoulder shakes and the color of his eyes changes from gray to golden brown, a sign that if I continue to get on his nerve. His wolf will take over and everything would be more chaotic.<br /> "Alpha," Theon called his father but the Alpha ignored him completely.<br /> "Drag her out of this room. Out of my house. Make her kneel outside of the house until she gives in and confess the truth!" Alpha Phillip announced.<br /> Warren, Alpha Phillip's most trusted delta immediately oblige his words. He grabbed me by my left arm and pulls me to stand up from kneeling.<br /> I silently follow Warren's guidance as my eyes silently watch everyone else. Alpha Phillip glance at his youngest son and shakes his head in disappointment. He is probably blaming Theon for my rude attitude.<br /> As soon as Alpha Phillip stormed out of the private hall. Warren let go of my arm. His eyes made a quick scanning on me and then he turned to his bestfriend, Theon.<br /> "Really, Ares Theon? You can't even say something to defend your wife? If the Alpha orders for his warrior to take her life, still you won't say anything, do you?" Warren mocked him.<br /> "It's her fault. What do you want me to do? If you were so worried about her then why didn't you say something? You too were quiet the whole time," Theon scoffed. He gazes at my direction one last time before he followed his father's footstep.<br /> "Between you two. It should be you who needs to cut the bond. When will you save your self from this, Estelle?" Warren asked. I smiled weakly at him.<br /> Warren no longer needs to walk me out of the house. I did it on my own. On the cobblestone in front of the pack house. I kneeled, with my knees pressing on the small stone in the pavement, wincing in pain and struggling to maintain in my position is expected.<br /> "Miss Elle, you have to do it properly says the young master." A pair of female omega came to my side. They didn't even try to hide those insulting smile that they had plastered on their lips as they talk.<br /> I darted a glare at them that they ignored on purpose, "You have to spread your arms as you kneel. That is the proper way."<br /> "Excuse me? That is a punishment for someone like you. How dare you insult me like this? Have you forgotten who I am?" I asked in between gritted teeth.<br /> They only look at each other and giggles.<br /> "Why are you getting mad at us? It's a word of your husband, Miss. Not ours. Also, we haven't forgotten who you are. You are the future Alpha's forsaken wife," she said.<br /> In time to that. The reason why the sky looks so dark and gloomy finally fall. Rain pours down and the two of them immediately rush themselves inside, leaving me all by myself.<br /> I lifted my arm and spread it on mid-air as I continued to kneel in front of the pack house.<br /> The rain started to fall harder. Strong and cold winds blew. All that is left for me to do to somehow keep myself warm is to hug my body.<br /> I heard from some of the servant that walked passed by me earlier that Alpha Phillip cancelled his birthday celebration because of what had happened and I am sure that everyone in the pack are blaming me for what had happened.<br /> I licked my lower lip. The rain has finally stop from pouring. Darkness spread in the sky like a wild fire. The omega that Theon asked to check on me as I am being harshly punish is now asleep.<br /> I have been in this position for God know's how long. I am dying to leave. My body is getting a lot weaker and I feel feverish. The coldness didn't left my body even though the rain is already gone. In fact, my whole body is trembling and my head is starting to feel terrible too.<br /> Now that there is no one watching me. I can choose to stand up and leave but my pride is taking over me. I would rather suffer than confess that I did something that I didn't do. Everyone has turned their back on me. I can't do the same thing to myself. If I can no longer give myself some respect and integrity. No one else would.<br /> "Estelle, you need to get through this. You have to be strong," I whispered to myself as drop of tears escaped from my eyes.<br /> Just when the lid of my eyes is about to close. I lightly shake my head to keep myself awake. I even bite my lower lip until I tasted blood coming out from it.<br /> The whole night had passed. My clothes that were once drenched and dripping because of the rain has dried off and the sun is starting to light up the whole world yet I am still kneeling. I could no longer feel my knees.<br /> I had my eyes glued on the cobblestone. It only moves when I saw a pair of leather shoes inches away from my bleeding knees. My eyes crawls from the pair of shoes up to his legs, upper body and finall to his chest.<br /> "Theon," I whispered my husband's name using the last drop of my strength and energy.<br /> He lowered his height so our face would met.<br /> "Will you now admit to your wrong doing, Estelle? Come on! Give up and say that you did it to Kelly so we'll be done and through. That is all what the alpha wants to hear. For you to apologize to Kelly and to him. Do you really find it hard to do? Lower your pride a little more, will you?" he said. I chuckled bitterly and look up to him with nothing but hatred and disgust.<br /> Theon was caught off-guard by the emotions in my eyes.<br /> "Do you really think that I am that gullible, Theon? Why would I let myself suffer overnight if I'll end up admiting that I am the one at fault? I'll stand firm with my words because that's the truth.

Once I am done, I zipped it up and my eyes landed on my ring finger.<br /> I closed my eyes to stop myself from crying. I removed the wedding band from my finger and left it on the side table.<br /> I am feeling dizzy and hot. It felt like any moment from now. I am going to lose my balance and fall to the ground because of my fever but I can't afford to stay here any longer.<br /> As I was dragging my luggages down the staircase.

I don't like the Lucianna Estelle to become the Luna of the city and rule together with Alpha Theon. I'd rather have the soon to be Alpha married his brother's ex-wife than stick with her good for nothing wife..." they continued to talk about me.<br /> "But aren't they mated to each other? Theon and Estelle?"<br /> "Theon probably rejected her. Her wolf is struggling that is why she's here," said by the other nurse before they giggle as if my suffering brings them nothing but absolute joy.<br /> "These people. How dare them insult you like that. They know nothing." Beau was about to approach them when I managed to pulled his hand and make him stay by my side. I look at him and shake my head, telling him not to do anything about it.<br /> "I need a way more important favor from you, Atty. Beaumont Meadows. Will you help me with my divorce." Beau stared at me with his mouth half-opened.<br /> "You were the one who asked for divorce?"<br /> "Yes."<br /> Beau pulled me into a warm hug and whispers, "Finally."

There were too many times that I felt this gnawing, aching feeling in my chest whenever the mention of Lennox with another girl came to mind. During high school, it's all I ever knew, and I hated it.<br /> I hated him.<br /> I hated myself for loving him.<br /> I thought at one point that I would have a chance with him, that our peck at the lake meant something, but after that day, he pretended like nothing had happened. I had been a little buzzed and worked up the courage to peck him, but it's like he thought that our peck meant nothing and that he didn't even need to remember it!<br /> I remember the sinking feeling inside of me when he ended up telling me that he and Kelly, my best friend, were dating. It hurt, a lot, but I gathered up all the courage inside of me and gave them both a big smile, congratulating them even though I felt like dying inside.<br /> ————————<br /> Lennox Grayson<br /> The moment my eyes meet hers, it's like the wprick world stands still.<br /> Leaning against the wall, I gaze at her from across the room, seeing how she freezes like a deer in the headlights, her pretty lips pursing into a slight frown. My heart is thudding rapidly in my chest, those haunting feelings pulling at the seams of my hardened heart and tearing it apart. I hate it. I don't want to feel that ever again.<br /> It's been too long.<br /> Rosalie... she is even more beautiful than I remember.<br /> Rosalie on the other hand, is a beauty.<br /> At only five-six, she has a lean, curvy body that is accentuated by the tight pants she is wearing and the flimsy blouse that I feel like I could shred without a moment's hesitation. Her long, straight blonde hair is back in a messy bun, and her bright blue eyes are gazing at me with such hostility, it sends a shiver down my spine.<br /> I guess she still hates me after what I did.<br /> The son of a multi billionaire, I have had everything that I could ever want. Including the Alpha title that was phiped down to me the moment dad died. I could've had any girl that I ever wanted. Girls flung themselves at me at least ten times a day, whether I wanted them to or not.<br /> I hold out my hand to her, offering her a small smile. "Truce, Rosalie?"<br /> She eyes my hand, and I can't help but wonder if she is going to smack it away. It wouldn't really surprise me considering her hostility towards me, but, if she doesn't, it would be a start.<br /> Rosalie sighs, reaching out to take my hand. "For now."<br /> The moment her hand touches me and her scent envelops me, my wprick body freezes as my wolf comes roaring to the front, his words more clear in my mind.<br /> I can't believe this.<br /> Is this real?<br /> For my wolf is saying something I never expected him to ever say.<br /> "Mate."<br /> <br /> Rosalie Temple<br /> Looking across the room, I can't help but look at Lennox Grayson in disdain, wondering how a man that handsome could be such an utter hipprick.<br /> Nervously sipping on my glhip of red liquor, I keep a careful eye on him, making sure that he isn't out here doing anything scandalous to make my brother seem like a guy who has hippricks for friends. I smirk at my own thoughts, remembering the time when I used to have the biggest crush on him. Before he ended up breaking my heart by dating my best friend.<br /> I was supportive of it until he broke her heart too.<br /> That, I wouldn't stand for.<br /> I trail my eyes up and down his muscular frame, clenching my thighs together in frustration, hating that my body still reacts to his no matter what I do. I scowl, seeing how the women, single or not, practically gawk at him and whisper to one another about how hot he is and how they wouldn't mind snagging him in their bed. I can't help but roll my eyes at the scene, watching him run his long fingers through his tousled black hair, his black eyes practically glittering with mischief.<br /> The big smile that spreads across his face is enough to make any woman's panties drop, and it pissed me off to no end that I felt the same way as well. Clearing my throat, I have to also admit that whether in a suit or casual clothing, there seems to be nothing that he wears that he doesn't look good in.<br /> What wouldn't a girl give to rip those clothes off of his fine body?<br /> Startled by my own thoughts, I shake my head, quickly trying to get the image of that out of my brain. It disgusted me a little to think that I had just thought some unholy thoughts about Lennox, knowing what kind of lady-killer he is with that blinding grin of his. If I didn't know any better, I thought I saw him glancing over at me a time or two, but I had to be wrong.<br /> He's never once looked at me.<br /> Not like that.<br /> "He's so handsome," a girl muses from beside me, the lust clear in her eyes and voice. "What I wouldn't give to be on the receiving end of that man, huh?"<br /> I roll my eyes, unable to help myself. "Yeah, only if you want to get your heart broken in the process."<br /> She sighs wistfully, shaking her head. "I wouldn't even care. Just a night in his bed would be more than enough."<br /> I felt a pang in my chest and tried to quickly push it away before it overtook me. There were too many times that I felt this gnawing, aching feeling in my chest whenever the mention of Lennox with another girl came to mind. During high school, it's all I ever knew, and I hated it.<br /> I hated him.<br /> I hated myself for loving him.<br /> I thought at one point that I would have a chance with him, that our peck at the lake meant something, but after that day, he pretended like nothing had happened. I had been a little buzzed and worked up the courage to peck him, but it's like he thought that our peck meant nothing and that he didn't even need to remember it!<br /> I remember the sinking feeling inside of me when he ended up telling me that he and Kelly, my best friend, were dating. It hurt, a lot, but I gathered up all the courage inside of me and gave them both a big smile, congratulating them even though I felt like dying inside.<br /> It was hard to be around either of them, seeing Kelly hanging on his arm and pecking him, taking the place that should've been mine. Originally, I was a little mad at myself because I was the one who had been easily fooled by Lennox. I know that he isn't the kind of man to just be in a relationship with someone, it doesn't matter how much he likes them, but I thought that we had a real connection.<br /> It's going to sound really cheesy, but there was a point when I thought that we might be soulmates.<br /> I really hated myself for thinking that way.<br /> I hated myself more for what happened next.<br /> We were nearing graduation and Kelly comes to me at my house, sobbing her eyes out. She tells me that Lennox had relationship with her and then broke up with her, saying that he never could love someone like her and that she was out of his league.<br /> I knew it was horrible, but a part of me was happy that they broke up, even though I hated seeing Kelly hurt the way that she did. I was even more mad at Lennox for playing both of us, especially since he slept with HER. It quickly made me realize what kind of person Lennox is, and I just didn't want to be around him after that.<br /> Any time that he tried to talk to me, I walked in the other direction, ignoring the aching in my heart every time that I did so. It didn't matter how much I cared or how much I loved him, he took it all for granted and it would never happen again.<br /> I sort of moved on, seeing other guys and trying to get him out of my mind. I stopped trying to see anyone after I couldn't do so, realizing that if I can't get Lennox out of my mind yet, then it's not fair to try and date someone else.<br /> It wouldn't be right.<br /> "Rosalie!" I hear my name being called out, breaking me out of my thoughts.<br /> Everyone's eyes seem to turn to me as Lennox heads my way, a brilliant smile on his handsome face. My heart flutters, wondering why it seems like I am the only woman he smiles at like that. His dimples are very prominent against his tan skin, giving him an even better look.<br /> Curse him.<br /> Out of the corner of my eye, I see the woman beside me practically swoon, fanning herself like a cat in heat. My blood turns ice cold, really wanting to just reach out and smack her, yell at her that he will never be hers.<br /> "Hello." Lennox greets the woman, and she giggles.<br /> This man!<br /> I whip around and walk away from them.<br /> "Rosalie!" I hear him call out once more, but this time I don't pay any attention.<br /> My heart is pounding in my chest, and I can't help but wonder if he might be able to hear it. The blood is rushing through my brain, making me feel a little fuzzy, but I don't even want to think about it. It's obvious what Lennox still is, smiling that handsome smile at just anyone, and I can't allow myself to fall for it.<br /> Just then, he catches my wrist and spins me around.<br /> "Rosalie, I have been calling for you!" he growls. His eyebrows etch together in confusion, a big smile no longer on his face. "What's the matter? I thought we called a truce!"<br /> I scoff, wondering if he is really clueless enough to not realize the attention he is attracting. "We may have called a truce, Lennox, but that doesn't mean I need to be at your beck and call like I'm your woman or something."<br /> If possible, his eyes darken even more. "I would never think that, Rosalie. You're... You're different than—"<br /> I cut him off before he can continue with that cheesy line I've heard so many times before. "How am I different, Lennox? I am just your best friend's little sister who you never paid any attention to. You had your fun, let her peck you and then pretended like it never happened."<br /> I am more than fueled up to fight this battle.<br /> His eyes widen considerably. "You remember the peck? Why didn't you say anything?"<br /> I jut my chin up in defiance, wondering how he will react at what I am about to say next. "Because it meant nothing to me."<br /> I jump as a low, dangerous growl escapes his lips, and in the blink of an eye, I am pinned against the wall. His body leans into mine, not letting me go. I can feel the hard ridge o f his manhood through his pants, pressing against my belly, causing my breath to hitch. Tt's mhipive.<br /> "I don't know what your problem is," he growls softly in my ear, trailing the tip of his nose along my jawline, sniffing softly, "but this time, you're not going to get rid of me that easily."<br /> <br /> Lennox<br /> The moment I realized that Rosalie is my fated mate, it was like everything had come crashing down and I wasn't sure how to handle it. I know that I've had feelings for her for as long as I can remember and that no one can ever live up to how I've felt towards her, but to think she is my mate? I thought perhaps my wolf was lying to me, trying to make up some fools excuse to get me to go and talk to her.<br /> I didn't even care about the women gazing at me with lust, like I am their prize of the night. The only person that I belong to and will forever belong to is Rosalie.<br /> My feelings for Rosalie are so chaotic right now, I'm not sure what goes where. If I had it my way, Rosalie would be locked away in my house for only me to see.<br /> I would show her how I feel for her, make her realize that I'm not playing her, and then I would ravage her on every surface of the house that I could get her on. I don't think I could be nice about it though. I just want to bury my manhood inside of her and fill her with my seed until all she smells like me.<br /> No other wolf will dare to touch her.<br /> Not if they don't want to die.<br /> "Rosalie should be here any second for when we need to start g—"<br /> "I'm here." I hear her sweet voice come from the doorway, immediately cutting me off. "Thankfully you guys are dressed, and we are just in time."<br /> I look over, curious as to what she is wearing since I hadn't paid much attention during the wedding planning. My mouth goes dry almost immediately as I rake my eyes up and down over her, feeling my manhood twitching in appreciation.<br /> She is just so beautiful.<br /> Rosalie wears a beautiful blue gown that falls to the floor elegantly. The dress has thin straps and a sweetheart neckline that shows off the curves of her shoulders and the dips of her breasts. The one thing about the dress I don't like is the fact it doesn't show off all the curves that she possesses, but I can only imagine that is Nya's doing.<br /> Still, Rosalie is the most beautiful woman in the entire world.<br /> "We are ready to go." I respond. Seeing how she is watching me carefully, I'm not even trying to woo her over right now.<br /> A pleased smile spreads across Rosalie's face as she nods her head. "Good. I can tell the wedding planner that we can start the wedding on time. I must admit, I thought that you men would be dragging us behind. I'm thankful that it didn't have to turn out that way."<br /> I can't say anything as she turns around and walks out of the room. My eyes are locked in on her hip, biting my bottom lip as I wish that I could grab those firm round globes as I press her against the wall and have my way with her.<br /> How good she would feel.<br /> "Dance with me," I tell her, leaving her no chance to protest.<br /> I think that she might try but she can tell that I am challenging her. I am practically letting her know that she has a choice to make now, and if she follows me onto the dancefloor, I'm not so sure that I can stop myself from doing what I want.<br /> What I hope she wants from me as well...<br /> She takes my hand, and that is the final straw.<br /> Taking her onto the dancefloor, I know that all eyes are on us, but I could care less. I pull her in close, loving that it is a slow song. Her body melts against mine perfectly, her arms sliding around my neck with confidence.<br /> My heart is thudding away in my chest, wanting me to leap forward and be done with it but I know that it doesn't quite work that way. Rosalie's eyes meet mine, and I am practically lost in the blues, wishing she would look at me with love too.<br /> "It's always been you."<br /> Rosalie's eyebrows furrow slightly in confusion. "Huh?"<br /> I smile down at her. "I know that I am a grumpy hipprick sometimes who doesn't deserve forgiveness, but I have loved you for as long as I can remember."<br /> Her breath hitches, eyes widening slightly.<br /> "I should've never dated anyone while trying to get you off of my mind," I confess, laying it out to her. "I thought I was doing the right thing by fighting my love for my best friend's sister, but I don't want to anymore. I hate feeling this way. All I have ever wanted is you, and I'm hoping you feel that way too."<br /> The song slowly dies, and I'm thinking she might push me away.<br /> She steps back, but to my surprise, she grabs my hand and starts leading me away from the dancefloor. I catch James' eye, seeing the confusion on his face but I wave him off. If she's going to scream at me, she might as well do it away from the party.<br /> Outside the reception building is a beautiful garden full of flowers, making it a flower wonderland. As her hand slips from mine, I think that she might yell at me, but she does the thing I expect least.<br /> Without a moment's hesitation, Rosalie leans up on her tippy toes and presses her lips against mine, fireworks practically exploding from the sudden touch.<br /> Finally....

I'm not someone who clings to what I can't have. Remember, I'm the one walking away from you, not the other way around."<br /> That night, she thought it was a sign that he had finally accepted her after marrying him for three years. She was set up. It was ridiculous that her husband helped others deceive her.<br /> "I don't agree to the divorce. Jessica's really sick, Cynthia, and you're the only one who can donate a kidney to save her. That's my only condition."<br /> "Cynthia," Nathan said, softening his tone deliberately. "Just help me out this one time, and I promise to keep today's drama under wraps. I'll make it worth your while, enough to start over somewhere far away..."<br /> Cynthia gave a self-mocking smile. "I just give you one chance, Nathan. Be at the Courthouse entrance at 9 AM sharp tomorrow. If you don't show up..."<br /> She smirked coldly. "Then even better. Jessica can forget about marrying into the Richardson family. And I'll make sure to remind you that you'll be a cuckolds for the rest of your life!"<br /> ————————<br /> <br /> In the presidential suite of the Winson Hotel in Litharia, a breathtakingly beautiful woman lay in bed. Her delicate skin was mostly hidden under a sheer blanket, with only her arms peeking out, bearing the faint red traces of a night filled with passion.<br /> Cynthia Jenkins stirred, letting out a soft moan as she woke from her deep sleep. She tried to get up, but her body, still weary and sore, sank back onto the bed.<br /> Memories from the night before came rushing back, bringing a faint smile to her face. For the first time in their three-year marriage, she and her husband, Nathan Richardson, had slept.<br /> She noticed Nathan wasn't in the room, and a tinge of disappointment flickered across her face, quickly replaced by composure.<br /> At the beginning of their marriage, Nathan had been distant, rarely showing any affection. Cynthia couldn't help but wonder if last night marked a turning point, a sign that he had finally accepted her.<br /> With a flicker of hope, Cynthia rose cheerfully from the bed. The moment her undressed feet touched the cold floor, she felt a sudden chill.<br /> Picking up a blue sapphire cufflink, oddly shaped and shimmering, from the floor, Cynthia widened her eyes in surprise. 'Could this be Nathan's?'<br /> Thinking of this, Cynthia smiled and placed the cufflink in her bag. Then, she went to freshen up herself before returning home.<br /> Cynthia had barely stepped out of the door when she ran into an unexpected visitor.<br /> "Cynthia?" The woman in front of her, dressed in a crisp white dress and possessing a sharp, piercing voice, was Kelly Dixon, the second lady of the Dixon family.<br /> Cynthia had always been at odds with the Dixon sisters. Jessica Dixon, the eldest lady of the family, was Nathan's first love. But today, Cynthia was in a good mood. "Kelly, what a surprise to see you here."<br /> "Indeed." Kelly sized up Cynthia with a mocking smile. "If I had arrived a bit earlier or later, I might have missed catching you in the act."<br /> She pointed at the red marks on Cynthia's arms with disdain. "What is this? You shameless woman! How dare you fooling around with other men behind Nathan's back!"<br /> Cynthia frowned, "What are you talking about?"<br /> "Cynthia, I've always known you're shameless, clinging to Nathan. But I never pegged you as someone who'd stoop this low." Kelly's eyes sparkled with the thrill of uncovering a juicy piece of gossip. "Are you really going to say these marks are from a night with Nathan?"<br /> Before Cynthia could utter a word, Kelly cut her off. "Please, cut the act. Nathan was at the hospital last night, staying by my sister's side. He was too busy to even catch a nap, much less waste time on someone like you."<br /> Cynthia's face changed dramatically. "Nathan was at the hospital?"<br /> "Where else would he be? You think he'd come to see you?" Kelly's voice was thick with sarcasm, as if she had just heard something ridiculous. "You've been caught sneaking around with someone else, and I'm not letting this slide so easily!<br /> "I'm going to show Nathan just how low you can go!" Kelly declared, her resolve unwavering. "I'm calling him right now to come over!"<br /> Cynthia couldn't absorb a word. Her mind went blank.<br /> If Nathan had spent the entire night in the hospital, then who was the man who had been so passionately entwined with her last night?<br /> A sudden realization made Cynthia's face darken.<br /> She had been set up!<br /> Yesterday was their three-year wedding anniversary, and Nathan surprisingly messaged her to meet at a hotel.<br /> Overjoyed and without a second thought, Cynthia rushed over. But when she arrived, Nathan texted to say he would be late and even ordered her some takeout.<br /> Cynthia, not sensing anything amiss and simply savoring the food, didn't expect to completely lose consciousness after finishing her meal. And that man last night...<br /> As Cynthia thought about everything that happened last night, her face turned deathly pale. 'How could this happen?'<br /> "Nathan already hates you for taking Jessica's place, and now, he'll never forgive you!" Kelly said triumphantly after a quick phone call. She stood firmly in Cynthia's path, blocking her exit.<br /> Cynthia hadn't even considered leaving. She felt a chill run down her spine. Besides, there weren't many people who could send a message using Nathan's phone.<br /> Soon, Nathan hurried down the corridor. "Kelly, did you need something from me?"<br /> He glanced at Cynthia with impatience. "What are you doing here? Jessica is still in the hospital. What are you up to now?"<br /> "I..." Cynthia opened her mouth, her mind in turmoil, unsure how to respond to him.<br /> "Nathan, I called you here," Kelly interjected eagerly. "I just so happened to see Cynthia sneaking out of a hotel room with some guy. It's serious, so I had to tell you."<br /> Nathan's face darkened instantly. "Cynthia, is it true?"<br /> "Would you believe me if I say I was framed?" Cynthia's eyes held a flicker of hope. "It was you who..."<br /> A smack came!<br /> Nathan's hand struck her face with a resounding slap, his expression cold and detached.<br /> "Pathetic! Why would anyone frame you?" Nathan's eyes blazed with anger at the sight of the red marks on Cynthia's arms.<br /> Even if he had no feelings for Cynthia, she was still his wife in name. This was nothing but a shame to him.<br /> Kelly watched with a smirk, stirring the pot. "Exactly, you must be delusional to think someone's out to get you.<br /> "Nathan, she's just lashing out because you're nice to Jessica. I caught her once, but who knows how many times she's cheated on you. Wake up, man."<br /> "What else do you have to say?" Nathan's gaze was filled with disgust.<br /> "What can I say?" Cynthia touched her burning cheek, a cold despair settling in her heart. She looked at Nathan, fighting the urge to laugh bitterly. "Nathan, don't you even want to ask why I ended up here?"<br /> It was ridiculous that her husband seemed to be solely dedicated to helping others deceive her.<br /> Nathan's eyes were full of disgust. "What exactly are you trying to say?"<br /> Cynthia felt utterly disheartened. She held up her phone, emphasizing each word. "Your phone sent me a message to come here. I trusted it and showed up. Did you text me, Nathan?"<br /> Nathan's gaze flickered. Last night, after getting treated, Jessica borrowed his phone...<br /> "It seems you know now who it was." Cynthia noticed his evasive look and had her suspicions. She smiled through her tears, "Nathan, I'm your wife. I'm the one being framed."<br /> Kelly quickly interjected, "Nathan, don't fall for her act. She's just looking for an excuse..."<br /> "This is between me and my husband. It's not your place to interfere," Cynthia retorted, showing her temper in front of Nathan for the first time.<br /> "You..." Kelly was furious and about to retort.<br /> However, Nathan had made up his mind at that moment. "I sent the text. I got tied up, sure, but that's no excuse for you cheating!"<br /> "It seems this is your choice, then." Cynthia's heart turned cold. Despite knowing she was wronged, he still chose to defend that hypocritical woman. She couldn't believe this was the man she loved.<br /> Nathan didn't show any sign of guilt. "Cynthia, it's you who fooled around with another man. Who else is there to blame?"<br /> Even though he felt somewhat uncomfortable about what Jessica did, he still firmly sided with her.<br /> "I was blind to have trusted the wrong person."<br /> Cynthia closed her eyes, and when she opened them moments later, they were clear and resolved. "Nathan, let's get a divorce."<br /> <br /> "Cynthia, what on earth are you thinking?" Nathan frowned slightly while Kelly's eyes flickered with surprise.<br /> Cynthia gave a self-mocking smile. "Nathan, I'm not someone who clings to what I can't have. Remember, I'm the one walking away from you, not the other way around."<br /> With those words, Cynthia felt a sudden clarity in her heart.<br /> "Cynthia, you're the one who messed up, but here you are, playing word games. Are you threatening Nathan?" Kelly said, secretly pleased.<br /> Cynthia glanced coldly at her. "Kelly, sometimes, you should just stay quiet."<br /> But Nathan's response caught Cynthia off guard. "I don't agree to the divorce."<br /> Cynthia let out a bitter laugh. "Isn't this what you've always wanted? Now that I'm stepping aside, you can be with Jessica happily ever after. Why disagree?<br /> "Or is there something more you're after, something you haven't gotten from me yet?" Cynthia's tone shifted, causing a subtle change in the expressions of the two before her.<br /> She didn't think herself so self-absorbed to believe Nathan still had feelings for her. Their reactions pretty much confirmed her suspicions.<br /> "I guess I was right." Cynthia curled up her lips. "So, Nathan, what's it gonna take for you to sign those divorce papers?"<br /> Nathan's eyes were deep and solemn. At this point, there was nothing left to hide. "Jessica's really sick, Cynthia, and you're the only one who can donate a kidney to save her. That's my only condition. Help her, and you won't regret it, I promise."<br /> Cynthia was thunderstruck, her voice hoarse with disbelief. "You mean, this whole time...you were just after my kidney?"<br /> "Jessica is the only one Nathan loves. Why else would he marry you if not to save her?" Kelly sneered, and Nathan's look confirmed that she was right.<br /> Cynthia felt a chill in her heart. It all made sense now. Nathan had initially balked at his grandfather Mark Richardson's suggestion of marrying Cynthia. He had been adamant about marrying Jessica instead, only to abruptly change his mind when Cynthia was nearly ready to walk away.<br /> She had hoped that, over time, Nathan might come to love her. But she realized now that from the very start, he had been scheming for her kidney!<br /> "Cynthia," Nathan said, softening his tone deliberately. "Just help me out this one time, and I promise to keep today's drama under wraps. I'll make it worth your while, enough to start over somewhere far away."<br /> "In your dreams, Nathan." Cynthia emphasized each word. "Sure, I had feelings for you, but not enough to degrade myself like this."<br /> "Looks like you choose the hard way." Nathan, never one with a good temper, immediately hardened his stance. "If you refuse to donate a kidney to Jessica, I will absolutely not agree to the divorce."<br /> Cynthia laughed angrily and retorted, "Fine by me. Do you have any idea how hard I worked to marry you? If you want to grow old with me, then so be it."<br /> "Cynthia!" Nathan's face soured. He was about to speak when Cynthia ruthlessly cut him off.<br /> "I just give you one chance, Nathan. Be at the Courthouse entrance at 9 AM sharp tomorrow. If you don't show up..."<br /> Cynthia smirked coldly. "Then even better. Jessica can forget about marrying into the Richardson family. And I'll make sure to remind you that you'll be a cuckolds for the rest of your life!"<br /> With that, Cynthia turned and left, not bothering to give Nathan or Kelly a second glance.<br /> "Nathan, what if she refuses the surgery? What about Jessica?" Kelly, watching Cynthia's retreating figure, feigned urgency.<br /> Nathan's gaze was deep. "Don't worry. I'll find a way to make her agree."<br /> As Cynthia stepped out of the hotel, a sleek Rolls-Royce Phantom suddenly pulled up, blocking her path.<br /> The window rolled down, showing a woman in her forties, still exuding charm, a face often seen on financial news.<br /> "You're right on time, Mom." Recognizing the woman, Cynthia wasn't surprised at all, her voice and posture shifting to something more dignified.<br /> "Get in," Heather Brooks said calmly.<br /> With a deep breath, Cynthia got into the back seat. Throughout the ride, they hardly talked to each other.<br /> In Litharia, Jenkins Villa stood majestically in the most coveted scenic area, home to the affluent Jenkins family.<br /> "I've heard the story between you and Nathan. So, have you finally seen Nathan's true colors?"<br /> In the living room of Jenkins Villa, Heather sipped her coffee, looking at Cynthia indifferently. "It's time for you to come back and take over the family business."

I took the ring off and threw it at him.<br /> ————————<br /> "Found it " Jessica said running into the room with a bottle of our favourite beverage. <br /> I had just gotten Jayson to sleep in his bed after the rough day we had. Jayson is only 6 months old and just like any young boy he loves his father. But Leon has a demanding job and most of the time comes home just in time to play with his son. <br /> Me and Leon met 6 years ago at a wedding and we instantly fell in love you could say. I promised myself that I wouldn't get in a relationship however when Leon was at the same school as me it was hard to stay away. A baby wasn't really in his plans. <br /> The thing that most attracted me to him was that he had this plan, had his future all mapped out. He wasn't messing around he knew what he wanted and was hungry for success. You try and tell me that isn't attractive. <br /> Last night me and leon were arguing about how he never spent time with his son. I wanted him to create a bond with Jayson but he is too focused on his growing company rather than his fast growing son. <br /> I screamed and hit him and I ended up in our bed alone after he shoved a nights worth of clothes in a bag and left. He had the money to go anywhere, where he would sleep tonight didn't worry me. <br /> All couples argue I know that, but there's only so much I can take. It's either about him not being home or the countless times i accuse him of prioritising other women over me. After all I was just the woman who stayed at home taking care of our son. <br /> I stay home most days with taking shifts at my brothers shop as his co-owner. He doesn't like how i am in charge of taking care of jayson but he was helpful in providing me with a job that i didn't have to leave the house for. <br /> " you can't seriously be happy with Leon " Jess, my best friend says as we watched a tv show in the lounge. I had invited her over to stay the night after telling her the fight we had last night. <br /> This was a usual event for us, every week we fought. <br /> I looked at her " I can't just be selfish Jess, I have my son to think about and he deserves to have a life with his parents, both of them" I tell her. <br /> She doesn't have children so she can't understand that you just have to sacrifice for your child. <br /> " Jayson may only be 6 months but he would never want you to suffer. Leon doesn't deserve you and you're sacrificing way too much for him " As you can tell Jess isn't Leon's fan. At the beginning of our relationship she adored him but recently He has been given her reasons to despise him. <br /> " just think about it at least " she added on as she turned to face the screen again. <br /> I nodded " I will " I replied to her, my eyes falling to my phone. It was depressing that I kept looking at my phone waiting for him to message me. We watched tv for the rest of the night until both of us fell asleep. <br /> I woke up at 5 am when I heard my son crying. He was screaming my name from his room, like he always does when he wakes up from his sleep. <br /> I grabbed my jumper and rushed to meet Jayson who was sat up in his bed. <br /> " oh my sweet baby mummy's here" I said picking his up and bringing him into my chest. <br /> His head rested on my chest as I rubbed his back. His cries we calming down now as he leant on my chest, he could probably feel my beating heart. <br /> Jess joined me in the room with a bottle of milk for him. I knew he needed to be changed and probably was wondering where his father was. <br /> I placed him down and grabbed a brand-new nappy and started to change him as Jess made funny faces at him to distract him. <br /> " you think we can get him into this" Jess said pulling out a black and white outfit from around her back. <br /> I laughed because she always loved dressing him up in cute outfits. When she came to visit me at the hospital after delivering Jayson she already had his going home outfit ready. <br /> She loved Jay just like her own and I knew as soon as I found out I was pregnant that she was going to be his god mother. I didn't really have a choice though. <br /> Her face when I asked her was something of a surprised one because I had only found out a few days before that she had slept with my brother. Neither of them wanted anything more but I was annoyed that they wouldn't tell me. <br /> When I called them to the house they thought I was going to be angry and possibly hate them but I actually invited them over to tell them I was pregnant and for them to be my sons god parents. <br /> At the time my brother thought I was having a girl. <br /> " here you try and get him in there" I passed over Jayson. <br /> She happily started to change him. She occasionally tickled him to get him to break out into giggles. <br /> I decided to have a shower before I needed to make him breakfast. My phone was vibrating with different notifications before I could even open the large glass doors. <br /> I found a few images from last night with Leon and his business partner at an event. <br /> Jealousy overcame my mind as I noticed how he was smiling around Emily he was happy. His arm was around her waist. <br /> There was a video of them talking that random people were tagging me in. Leaving all types of comments that were implying a lot of different things. <br /> I had received a lot of messages from friends with advice and support. This is the first time that they had been seen together in the media but for me, I have seen this many times. <br /> I placed my phone down and jumped into the shower. I let the water drip down my body I tried not to be too bothered about it but my eyes were trailing down my body. <br /> He used to love my curves, he would admire my body and he would worship me like I was some one in a million woman. <br /> These days I don't get any of that attention. Now it's on a different woman, maybe my post baby body was unattractive for him now. <br /> Pushing my new found insecurities to the side I finished showering and got dressed. <br /> I found Jay and Jess in the lounge sitting watching a show on the tv. <br /> I smiled. I don't know what I would do without Jayson. <br /> Another vibrate brought me back to my phone. <br /> Relationship on the rocks? Leon appears to enjoy a night away from his family with Emily. See pictures. <br /> It read. <br /> Someone had mentioned me on Instagram with numerous pictures showing Leon with that same woman. <br /> As I scrolled through my heart broke when I saw the picture. <br /> " babe? " Jess said standing in front of me as I stared at my phone. <br /> She took the phone from me?and gasped. Clearly she hadn't expected him to do that to me. <br /> Why would he cheat on me. He didn't even have the decency to break up with me before he goes and pecks another woman. <br /> He's lucky we're only engaged, it makes me wonder why he bothered to propose when he would just do this to me. <br /> " Stay with Jayson I'm going to find this son of a woman" I said walking back into my room and grabbing my boots and jacket. This was the final straw, I was not going to be made a joke by Leon. <br /> She cradled Jayson as she watched me. " I'm sorry babe, you Sure you don't want to calm down first" I could tell that she was nervous of what I was going to do. <br /> " no, can't you see he's taken advantage of me, sitting back and being the perfect girlfriend. I won't let my kind heart let him get away with this" I said grabbing random things and shoving them into a bag. <br /> At this point I didn't even know what I was shoving into my bag. <br /> I messaged my brother quickly telling him to come and bring three large suitcases. <br /> This is him home I don't want to be here. Not where we created this life together. <br /> " I know. Call me if you need anything" she said watching me run around the room. <br /> I nodded before walking out the door and running over to my car. Thank god I bought this car myself and not relied on Leon to provide everything. <br /> It was already 10 in the morning so I knew he would be at the office. I drove to the address and pulled up to the entrance. Not caring I was blocking the door with my car. <br /> I smiled at the doorman. " don't worry I won't be long " I said throwing him the keys. He gulped as he ran towards the car, probably to move it out of the way. <br /> As soon as I walked inside, I noticed that people were staring at me. Some with serious faces and others were probably itching to make fun of me. It truly hurts knowing how many restless nights I spent here at the beginning when there were just 5 employees here. <br /> I walked up to his floor and noticed the alarming look that his assistant was giving me. She jumped out her seat. <br /> " Charlize, he's in a meeting can I get you a drink maybe, coffee" she smiles at me stopping me from bursting through his dark brown doors, leading to his multimillion-pound office. <br /> Didn't know we were on first name basis if I'm being honest. Kelly is one example of a woman who tried to steal my man. <br /> I stared her down " No I'm fine. If he's in a meeting, I'll just wait for him here" I said walking over and sitting on the sofa. I crossed my legs and leant back. My mind was clouded with fury I didn't even feel like crying. <br /> I crossed my legs and waited patiently. <br /> " okay " she mumbled quickly running to her office probably to give my loving fiance a heads up. Would be a good idea. <br /> I laughed when I found Jess sharing a video of her trashing his office at the house. My brother could be seen in the background trying to not laugh. <br /> The view count was crazy. <br /> It wasn't long before I saw her walk out his office. <br /> You have got to be kidding. <br /> She didn't make eye contact with me she tried to escape but I stepped up to her. Her alarmed and scared eyes were amusing. I was itching to smile. <br /> " I know you hate me but please don't make a scene here. We are running a business here " she tells me looking around. <br /> Her staff were poking their heads out their offices trying to get a good look. <br /> " Of course, sorry I'm just a dumb housewife so I don't know anything about business" her smile soon disappeared. Even she knows what I did at the beginning of this company. <br /> I made the motion like I was about to leave but instead of just walking away I brought my hand up and slapped her right across the face. <br /> The slap echoed and people gasped, probably didn't believe that would dare touch her. Security were already heading my way, speaking into their . She held her hand up to them. They stopped walking. <br /> " men don't know how to keep their manhood in their pants. Leon didn't have a single <br /> Bone in his body that thought about my family or his son. But I hoped that you would have" I said to her. <br /> She looked slightly guilty but she didn't say anything. Probably lost for words. <br /> I turned around and found Leon standing at the door of his office his eyes showing guilt, sadness, regret and pain. <br /> " you want to do this here or inside" I said standing in front of him. He wasn't making any room for me to go inside. <br /> As soon as we got inside, he reached for me. I slapped his hands away. <br /> " Don't touch me" I shouted at him pointing my finger at him. He didn't look surprised at my reaction. <br /> Leon wasn't stupid. <br /> " Liz please, I can explain" I moaned. Why do they always start like that. <br /> I'm not that difficult, if he wanted another woman we could easily break up and he would still see his son without a problem. <br /> " I've sat back for way too long. Watched you become this man with an office, nice cars a beautiful son and you still want more" I laughed thinking at how stupid I had been. Blind, I was blind. <br /> He leant back against the wall. His hands moving to loosen his tie. <br /> Stressed are we. <br /> " she's not you, baby,I would never choose her over you" he says stepping forward and coming towards me. <br /> I felt sick. Is that supposed to make it all okay. <br /> "Tell me something was she just in here, her lips around you huh? I said coming face to face with him. <br /> I needed to vent, scream. <br /> My words surprised him. He glared at me " don't be so vulgar Of course not" he tried to defend himself. Key word, tried. <br /> Probably didn't think I'd go and find out for myself. <br /> I grabbed his belt and dropped my hand underneath his pants. <br /> He stiffened. This proved nothing for me but it was fun to see him squirm. <br /> " you have ruined everything we built and if you think I'm to going to forgive you because you claim to have drilled-up you will need some serious help Leon" I screamed at him. <br /> He held onto my shoulders " what are you going to do leave me. We have a son you're my fiance you're mine Charlize " he said bringing me close to him. <br /> I had to laugh. Now he wants to remember we are a family, that he has a son. <br /> Makes me sick. Where were these thoughts last night. <br /> My hands pushed him back, I had no control over my anger, my frustration. <br /> " Don't forget your place" he said lifting up my chin and staring down at me. Last year I would have fallen weak to his charms. <br /> My fingers moved to the over exaggerated diamond ring on my finger. <br /> I knew he was watching. " don't" he said, reaching for my hands. <br /> I turned around and continued sliding the ring off my finger. Once it was off, I threw it at his chest. It dropped to the floor right between his legs. <br /> " I won't sit back and let you treat me like Leon. I will never take you away from your son because I'm not a monster but you're going to have to fight for his time. He deserved your time and love but you'd rather cheat on us" <br /> I moved around his body reaching for the door. <br /> " I can provide for him more than enough. What makes you think the judge will let you have full rights to our son" he said just before I opened the door. <br /> His words made me stop. <br /> " you're a intelligent man Leon but that was honestly the most stupidest thing you could have ever said" <br /> With those words registering in his brain I walked out the office. My head held high and my future to look forward to now. <br /> ---<br /> My brother George, helped me move into my mother's house all day. When mum saw her two children together helping each other out she was happy. From many problems growing up I guess this was a miracle. <br /> My phone was still blowing up. The countless messages and calls from Leon. <br /> 15 missed calls from Leon <br /> Liz answer the phone <br /> Baby you have to listen to me hear me out. <br /> I need you, I need Jayson <br /> Charlize <br /> The next morning, I decided to head to the park with Jayson. I believe that some fresh air would do him just right. <br /> Mum was taking a long sleep and I knew she had a dinner party with her best friends tonight. <br /> " c'mon jay jay lets go out, "I said strapping him into his pushchair. <br /> He found the roof of the pram to be very interesting to him. <br /> I walked for ten minutes to the nearest park. As soon as I arrived little girls came running over instantly recognising Jayson. <br /> He's a hit what can I say. <br /> " Oh, Lizzy look at him he's holding my pinky," a girl says laughing. I looked over and rightly so Jayson was tightly holding onto this girls finger for dear life. <br /> " clearly he misses you," I said to her. <br /> A group of young girls were all looking at Jayson. They loved him and I knew when they were older they would be great candidates for babysitters. Maybe I should start getting contacts numbers. <br /> I sat back and watched as they fussed around with Jayson. Jay being the ladies man welcomed the attention and loved it. <br /> He's going to be trouble when he's older I swear. <br /> I thought that I would be at peace her in the park surrounded by children. The only problems they would have is wondering who's turn it was on the slide. <br /> If only my life was that simple. <br /> My eyes narrowed in on an oddly familiar figure. Standing leaning against a black Mercedes. When he knew that I saw him he made his way over. The mothers of the other kids watched him as he marched across the park. <br /> " how did you find me, " I said as Leon sat beside me, a little too close for my liking. <br /> Jayson was already wiggling around in his seat when his eyes met Leon's. Clearly, he missed his dad. <br /> "Go ahead," I said motioning for Leon to hold his son. <br /> I watched him pick up Leon and hold him in his arms. He waved Jayson's arms around and made funny faces. <br /> It hurt to see them like that. Knowing that we can never be that once happy family again. <br /> " what are you doing here," I asked him as he placed Jayson back down. <br /> He glances at me. " well if you're not going to answer me calls I'm going to have to find another way to get to see my family" <br /> He's using this family word a lot recently. Seemed to have slipped his mind when he was cheating on me. <br /> " well, you've seen him. We will work an agreement on when you can see him" I said to him bluntly. <br /> I know he wasn't happy with that outcome. <br /> " it's not just him I'm here to see."

What happened to your sister-in-law was her own doing, Theon, but no matter how much I plead with you, you never believe me. I really can't stand you anymore. Let's get a divorce. Did you hear it? I want you out of my life. I, Luciana Estelle Ortiz, finally reject you as my partner. You make me sick. "<br /> ————————<br /> "Kelly lost her child because of you!" Alpha Phillip said angrily. <br /> "What do you mean? I didn't do anything to her. Kelly is lying. She is just looking for someone to blame for her carelessness but I swear, I didn't push her," I countered to defend my innocent self from their harsh accusation. I looked up to Theon who was standing right beside me. My eyes, begged for him to take my side, to believe me this time.<br /> "You should be kneeling down for mercy, Estelle. Begging for us to forgive you but instead—"<br /> "I am sorry to be impolite but why would I do any of that thing? I am not at fault here," I cut him off and the alpha laughed sarcastically<br /> "Look at this woman you are calling your mate, Theon. If you weren't a fool and stubborn back then. You won't end up with her."<br /> I gasped in shock when Theon held me by my shoulder and pressed me down on the floor, forcing me to kneel before the Alpha.<br /> "Let go of me, Theon," I said in between gritted teeth, trying to wag his hand off my shoulder. He only held me down tighter as if his patience is about to run out too, "You can't force me to apologize to her. It is not my fault. Let me go!"<br /> "Kneel down or I am going to cut off the tie between us and reject you as my mate. Choose one, Lucianna Estelle," he whispered that made me lose all of my strength.<br /> I could not help it but smile bitterly as Theon's harsh words played on my mind like a broken record. By the way he stares at me, I already knew that he won't take my side but him telling me that he will cut off our bond and reject me as his mate is too much.<br /> Theon pressed me tighther on the floor, showing no mercy, not even a chance to look up and meet his father's eyes.<br /> I lost the count of times he have turned his back on me. Most of the time, I will let it slide and shrug it off like it didn't happen but not this time. I don't think I can easily forgive him.<br /> I am not really sure which is more painful. These scratches and tiny wound that I got in my knees or the bleeding of my heart. I never lied to them but why do they find it so hard to believe me?<br /> Alpha Phillip sighs heavily, "Let me ask you one more time, Estelle. Why did you push your sister-in law in the pool and cause her miscarriage?" I can still sense the raw anger on Alpha Phillip's voice that he is trying to mask with the calm look on his face.<br /> I finally find the courage to once again see him eye to eye. I straightened my back, redeeming my composure.<br /> "I am sorry," I murmured. Of course he is not pleased to hear those words from me, but the Alpha is satisfied that I am finally apologizing for the mistake that I didn't commit in the first place. That's what I thought.<br /> "I know you all want to hear that from me but as much as I hate to disappoint all of you. I have too. For the nth time. I am going to say it again and I will remain firm with my words and claim. I didn't push Kelly. It was her fault. She lost her baby because she was careless and—" I closed my eyes. My heart jump out of its cage to runaway as shock consumed it.<br /> Alpha Phillip threw a porcelain vase in my direction. I was fortunate enough that it didn't hit me but it pieces flew threw my direction, leaving a scratch on the left side of my cheeks.<br /> My hand slowly crawl up to my cheek, trailing the blood that is coming out of my skin.<br /> "I can't believe how arrogant you have become, Estelle! Is it because your husband is close to becoming the Alpha of the pack? Because you are going to become the Luna? Is this why you are challenging me and my authority?" Alpha Phillip screamed angrily. His shoulder shakes and the color of his eyes changes from gray to golden brown, a sign that if I continue to get on his nerve. His wolf will take over and everything would be more chaotic.<br /> "Alpha," Theon called his father but the Alpha ignored him completely.<br /> "Drag her out of this room. Out of my house. Make her kneel outside of the house until she gives in and confess the truth!" Alpha Phillip announced.<br /> Warren, Alpha Phillip's most trusted delta immediately oblige his words. He grabbed me by my left arm and pulls me to stand up from kneeling.<br /> I silently follow Warren's guidance as my eyes silently watch everyone else. Alpha Phillip glance at his youngest son and shakes his head in disappointment. He is probably blaming Theon for my rude attitude.<br /> As soon as Alpha Phillip stormed out of the private hall. Warren let go of my arm. His eyes made a quick scanning on me and then he turned to his bestfriend, Theon.<br /> "Really, Ares Theon? You can't even say something to defend your wife? If the Alpha orders for his warrior to take her life, still you won't say anything, do you?" Warren mocked him.<br /> "It's her fault. What do you want me to do? If you were so worried about her then why didn't you say something? You too were quiet the whole time," Theon scoffed. He gazes at my direction one last time before he followed his father's footstep.<br /> "Between you two. It should be you who needs to cut the bond. When will you save your self from this, Estelle?" Warren asked. I smiled weakly at him.<br /> Warren no longer needs to walk me out of the house. I did it on my own. On the cobblestone in front of the pack house. I kneeled, with my knees pressing on the small stone in the pavement, wincing in pain and struggling to maintain in my position is expected.<br /> "Miss Elle, you have to do it properly says the young master." A pair of female omega came to my side. They didn't even try to hide those insulting smile that they had plastered on their lips as they talk.<br /> I darted a glare at them that they ignored on purpose, "You have to spread your arms as you kneel. That is the proper way."<br /> "Excuse me? That is a punishment for someone like you. How dare you insult me like this? Have you forgotten who I am?" I asked in between gritted teeth.<br /> They only look at each other and giggles.<br /> "Why are you getting mad at us? It's a word of your husband, Miss. Not ours. Also, we haven't forgotten who you are. You are the future Alpha's forsaken wife," she said.<br /> In time to that. The reason why the sky looks so dark and gloomy finally fall. Rain pours down and the two of them immediately rush themselves inside, leaving me all by myself.<br /> I lifted my arm and spread it on mid-air as I continued to kneel in front of the pack house.<br /> The rain started to fall harder. Strong and cold winds blew. All that is left for me to do to somehow keep myself warm is to hug my body.<br /> I heard from some of the servant that walked passed by me earlier that Alpha Phillip cancelled his birthday celebration because of what had happened and I am sure that everyone in the pack are blaming me for what had happened.<br /> I licked my lower lip. The rain has finally stop from pouring. Darkness spread in the sky like a wild fire. The omega that Theon asked to check on me as I am being harshly punish is now asleep.<br /> I have been in this position for God know's how long. I am dying to leave. My body is getting a lot weaker and I feel feverish. The coldness didn't left my body even though the rain is already gone. In fact, my whole body is trembling and my head is starting to feel terrible too.<br /> Now that there is no one watching me. I can choose to stand up and leave but my pride is taking over me. I would rather suffer than confess that I did something that I didn't do. Everyone has turned their back on me. I can't do the same thing to myself. If I can no longer give myself some respect and integrity. No one else would.<br /> "Estelle, you need to get through this. You have to be strong," I whispered to myself as drop of tears escaped from my eyes.<br /> Just when the lid of my eyes is about to close. I lightly shake my head to keep myself awake. I even bite my lower lip until I tasted blood coming out from it.<br /> The whole night had passed. My clothes that were once drenched and dripping because of the rain has dried off and the sun is starting to light up the whole world yet I am still kneeling. I could no longer feel my knees.<br /> I had my eyes glued on the cobblestone. It only moves when I saw a pair of leather shoes inches away from my bleeding knees. My eyes crawls from the pair of shoes up to his legs, upper body and finall to his chest.<br /> "Theon," I whispered my husband's name using the last drop of my strength and energy.<br /> He lowered his height so our face would met.<br /> "Will you now admit to your wrong doing, Estelle? Come on! Give up and say that you did it to Kelly so we'll be done and through. That is all what the alpha wants to hear. For you to apologize to Kelly and to him. Do you really find it hard to do? Lower your pride a little more, will you?" he said. I chuckled bitterly and look up to him with nothing but hatred and disgust.<br /> Theon was caught off-guard by the emotions in my eyes.<br /> "Do you really think that I am that gullible, Theon? Why would I let myself suffer overnight if I'll end up admiting that I am the one at fault? I'll stand firm with my words because that's the truth. The only person to blame for the tragedy that happened to your sister-in law is no one but herself, Theon... but you're never going to believe me no matter how I begged for you to listen to me," I took a pause and breathe deeply. I need to be courageous enough to open my mouth for the second time, "I really can't stand you anymore, Theon. Let's get a divorce. Do you hear me? I want you gone in my life. I, Lucianna Estelle Ortiz is finally rejecting you as my mate. I should have done this ages ago. I should have listen to my father when he told me that you are no good for me. He was right. The Moon God made a mistake making you my mate. You disgust me."<br /> This could be an impulsive decision because I am hurting at the moment but at the same time. I know too well that this is the only chance that I have. I need to walk away from Theon right now because I know that it would took me a thousand years to find the courage to leave him if I let this chance slide.<br /> I rose to my feet and slowly make my way inside of the pack house even though I can barely stand up.<br /> My inner wolf is crying and dying in pain at the same time as I packed everything that I own in this room inside of my luggagr bag. Once I am done, I zipped it up and my eyes landed on my ring finger.<br /> I closed my eyes to stop myself from crying. I removed the wedding band from my finger and left it on the side table.<br /> I am feeling dizzy and hot. It felt like any moment from now. I am going to lose my balance and fall to the ground because of my fever but I can't afford to stay here any longer.<br /> As I was dragging my luggages down the staircase. Theon happened to be walking upstairs. I immediately look away from his direction and continue to drag my luggage and myself out of the pack house that serves as my home for years.<br /> The deltas guarding the gate open them up for me. I looked back at the pack house as bitterness swirls in my system. Theon can no longer wait for me to leave this place. He even told their guards to let me leave as soon as I can.<br /> Of course he can't. Although I am his mate. His heart belongs to someone else. It belongs to Kelly and he never had the chance to had it back even if she was married to his older brother. Theon waited for his chance to be with her the way I am waiting for him to look at me the same way he looks at her.<br /> I am such a fool for hoping that something like that would happen.<br /> The moment I opened my eyes. I saw a white ceiling and that blinding white light. My body feels weak. It's aching all over, on the second thought. It's not my body that is making me weak and fragile but my wounded inner wolf who is mourning and grieving over the fact that I rejected her mate, Theon's inner wolf before they become intimate.<br /> That's right. Theon were never intimate with me and we were married for three years. The first time that he pecked me was when we got married and if I remember it right. That was the last time too.<br /> The door opened and when my eyes trails to that direction. I saw Beau, my childhood bestfriend walked in with a paperbag on his hand.<br /> "H-Hey," I greeted him. He walk straight to my hospital bed. He flashes a bright smile that soothes me somehow.<br /> "Where am I?" I continued to look around and my eyes gets to answer the question that had escape from my lips. I am in the hospital and I can't believe that I have these medical things attached on my body.<br /> I hold on to my dextrose and was about to take them off when Beau stopped me.<br /> "Don't. You need that in order to gain some energy for your body." I smirked at him and continue to pull the needle out of my veins. Soon, I realized why he didn't want me to take these thing off.<br /> My wolf is too weak to heal me, but it's too late. I can put it back on my own. We are gonna need to call a nurse to put it back on me but I don't want anyone in my room at the moment.<br /> I pushed my upper body to get up from the bed and sit. Beau was quick to assist me. He put a pair of pillow to support my back.<br /> "I already know why I am here but why are you here? I can't remember how I got here," I said. The last thing that I can remember is me walking out of the pack house's gate.<br /> "Warren called me. He said you need me. When I arrived to pick you up. I saw you unconscious in front of their gate. It was raining. Would you mind telling me what happened? Why the guards let you in such state? What happened to your wolf, Estelle?"<br /> I looked away from his eyes. If there's someone I can never lie too. It's Beau. He can tell wether I am lying to him or not and I don't really want to talk about it.<br /> "I thought you'd prefer these over the hospital food. I got you your favorite pasta," he said.<br /> I immediately grab the paperbag from his hand. The pesto cheered me up somehow and it gave me energy too. Just when I was about to take the last bite from its aesthetically pleasing container. He opened his palm before my eyes, asking for something.<br /> I looked up to him with confusion dwelling in my eyes. "Hmm?"<br /> "Your phone. I will keep it for the mean time?" My eyebrow crane up.<br /> "Why would you want to keep my phone?"<br /> "Just give it to me. Deal with Theon and everything once you are well for the mean time. I want you to focus on getting better. I am not used in seeing you like this. I want the energetic and happy Lucianna Estelle." I pouted my lips. I already saw my phone on the table next to my hospital bed so I do know where to get them. Seconds after giving it to Beau. He turned it off and then he gestured me to finish eating my food.<br /> "You still eat like a kindergarten. I can't believe that you were to become the Luna of that pack," Beau said it mindlessly and when he realize that he said something that he shouldn't have. He presses his lips together.<br /> "I will go get something that you can use to clean up your face," he mumbled, changing the topic to ease the awkwardness between us.<br /> "No. Nevermind. I got it." I grabbed a wet wipes from the side table and clean myself. I decided that washing my face would be better and so I left my room to do it so in the comfort room because my room does not have one.<br /> "Have you seen the article about the Sullivans? It's crazy. From the moment I saw the second young master's wife. I know that she's no good. Just by seeing her gives me the irks." Hearing those nurse gossiping about me in the hallway made me stop from walking. I had to hide myself in the corner just so they wouldn't see me.<br /> "She is basically a murderer. She killed her sister-in law's baby. The only thing that is left to remind her of her late husband. I am glad that the heir to the throne is divorcing her. I don't like the Lucianna Estelle to become the Luna of the city and rule together with Alpha Theon. I'd rather have the soon to be Alpha married his brother's ex-wife than stick with her good for nothing wife..." they continued to talk about me.<br /> "But aren't they mated to each other? Theon and Estelle?"<br /> "Theon probably rejected her. Her wolf is struggling that is why she's here," said by the other nurse before they giggle as if my suffering brings them nothing but absolute joy.<br /> "These people. How dare them insult you like that. They know nothing." Beau was about to approach them when I managed to pulled his hand and make him stay by my side. I look at him and shake my head, telling him not to do anything about it.<br /> "I need a way more important favor from you, Atty. Beaumont Meadows. Will you help me with my divorce." Beau stared at me with his mouth half-opened.<br /> "You were the one who asked for divorce?"<br /> "Yes."<br /> Beau pulled me into a warm hug and whispers, "Finally."
