Chapter 39
? EMERALD POV?
âWatching you make breakfast is just so cuteâ Xavier said as we walked out of the kitchen together.
âIâm not used to you acting this way, am still shockedâ I said and he burst out laughing.
âIâm going to continue acting this way until you listen to me and agree to be my girlfriendâ Xavier said and I pushed his face away softly.
âHope you donât go about saying that to all the girls you wooâ I said and he chuckled.
âOnly for you babeâ he said and pecked my cheeks.
âGo get the kids down hereâ I said and he chuckled as he made his way up the stairs..
I took a deep breath in and out and started making plans on how to get home on time, I wonder whatâs up with Penny and if father is mad at me for spending the night at Xavierâs place.
âMummy!â I heard Damienâs excited voice and turned just to see him running into my arms for a hug followed by his brother Derrick.
âGood morning mummyâ he said grinning from ear to ear.
âGood morning Rachelâ Derrick said and I smiled at him.
âThis way little guys, I made breakfastâ I said leading them towards the dinner table.
âBreakfast timeâ they said in unison making Xavier and I chuckle. I sat next to Xavier and gasped immediately he held my hand under the table.
âStop itâ I whispered softly and he raised his eyebrows in my direction.
âStop what?â he asked feigning innocence.
âStop what you are doing you naughty manâ I said and he laughed.
âIs everything okay mummy?â Derrick asked curiously.
âOf course sweetheart, everything is okayâ I food.
ld and he gave a nod as he focused on his
âSee what your naughtiness had caused? you f ucking grabbed their attentionâ I said and he smiled teasingly.

âIt is a bad habit to talk while eatingâ he said and I opened and closed my mouth like a fish.
âI havenât eaten anything thing, have I ?â I asked and he threw his head backwards as he laughed loud.
âYou donât need to eat anything sweetheart, I can eat for the both of usâ he said and I laughed.
âWhat are you? Romeoâ I said and he pouted cutely.
âYou are underestimating what I am capable ofâ he said and I ignored him as I started eating, he decided to focus on his food too.
Aunt Maggie walked into the dinning table looking really tired and she looked like she just woke up.
âGood morning maâam, are you okay?â I asked with concern.
âIâm fine, I just hurt my foot pretty badâ she said and for some reason what she said. didnât add up.
I hope she was not involved in any form of trouble.
âSince when did you hurt yourself this bad? have you paid a visit to the pack doctor?â Xavier asked subconsciously as he walked over to her and bent down to check the sprained ankle.
âOuch.â she cried in pain.
âSorry Granâ Derrick said and she smiled in his direction.
After breakfast Xavier left the table with her, I think he decided to take her to the pack. doctor by himself, he came back after spending about 45 minutes.
âHow is your aunt doing?â I asked and he looked at me in suprise.
âHow did you know she is my aunt?â he asked and I looked at him calmly trying to find the perfect answer.
you call
âShe told me she is your motherâs sister and that makes her your aunt. Besides, her aunt Maggie any smart person will put the dots togetherâ I said and he laughed.
âI think soâ he said and sighed.
âAunt Maggie is a good woman, this is the first time she is getting into such accident within this house. It is supirising since we donât expose her to add labourâ he said and I forced a smile.

âShe is going to be okayâ I said rubbing his back.
âDerrick and I will have to leave soon, I have some important things to take care ofâ I said and he pulled me into his arms as he hugged me from behind.
âBut Iâm going to miss youâ he said and I chuckled.
âStop whining like a kid, I have work to do. Are you driving us home personally or I should get my driver?â I asked and he pecked my checks..
âI will do the honour of driving the both of you back homeâ he said and I smiled.
âHow about you join me to a charity event on Friday night?â he asked and I fold my hands against my chest.
âFriday night?â I asked and he smiled.
âWhy do you like to answer my questions with questions?â he asked and I bit my lower l*p.
âIt is because you have a wife and you want to take someone else to a charity event, what would people say?â I asked and he sighed.
âRachel people will always talk, no one can find happiness by thinking about what other people have sayâ he said and I chuckled.
âSee him trying to convince me into being his dateâ I said teasingly as I laughed.
âIs that a yes?â he asked playfully and I laughed.
âYes!â he exclaimed excitedly.
âWhat is thatâ I said and he laughed.
âWhen did I even say yesâ I said and he chuckled.
âCâmon kidsâ he said and Damien walked over to us accompanied by Derrick.
The ride to my place was not a quiet one as the kids talked about random things while Xavier did the driving. I had a lot on my mind too, mainly on how to go o about everything happening in my life at the moment.
Two men who are part of little game were asking me out, Gabriel Fernandez my business partner the guy who wanted to be part of my revenge plan and there is Xavier Jason the man who broke me beyond repair, took my son and left me to die yet still managed to make my heart beat crazily.
I shut my eyes tight as a wave of confusion hit my mind.

?AUTHORâS POV?
Someone sat in a dark room making a phone call.
The girl is Emerald, I know her when I see her I cannot be mistakenâ she said in
annoyance.
âI am not saying you are mistaken, what I donât understand is her ability to hide from all of us this longâ The person at the other end of the call said.
âHow could Xavier not recognize her at first sight? they were very much in love with each otherâ he said and she sighed.
âI am your mother Elroy and I can never lie to youâ Aunt Maggie said as she stood up from her chair.
âWhat you are trying to tell me is that Rachel and Emerald are one personâ he asked. and Maggie walked around the room.
âYes, I just donât understand how the s tupid naive girl suddenly grew up wings over night and became one of the most successful werewolf billionaires in the human world, it is quiet shockingâ she said and lit up a stick of ciggarrate
âSo what do you think we should do mother?â he asked calmly.
âWe have a lot to do sonâ she said and puffed out smoke from her pipe.
âBut as you know, things are no longer the same around here. Lina has plans Elroy all this while we thought she only had the motive of being Luna but we were wrong, she is not the master mind of this whole gameâ she said and Elroy gasp.
âYes son, she is in a relationship with Jaydenâ she said and Elroy felt was shocked. The pack house was really a place buried with numerous lies and deceit, too many to even
mention.
âJayden the Beta??â he asked to be sure of what he just heard.
âAnd here I am, thinking that I was the only one who wanted a taste of Xavierâs position. how could his own best friend want to run the pack mother? The same best friend. which made him tag me a betrayer and send me out of the pack forever?â Elroy asked.

âLife is unpredictable sonâ she said as she scoffed.

dream did not come into realisation because Carlos picked someone else over meâ she said in anger.
âMy own sister, after years of f ucking me behind the pack members, how could he mark my own blood sister over me!â she bursted angrily.
âYou are his biological son and the rightful Alpha of the BLOOD MOON PACK!â she bursted angrily.
âI know mother and trust me we donât have to do anything to win this game, let others fight the battle we would come in when everyone is least expecting and do the needfulâ Elory said and aunt Maggie smirked.
Her son is right, for now she would continue being the sweet aunt Maggie who had the good of everyone at heart.
