The Alpha Abandoned Bride
Chapter 46
ISABEL
It has been over three weeks since I last Logan. I know I was the one who told him to stay away. I should have been happy that heâd found what I wanted but instead, I wasnât.
I felt his absence and I disliked that I did. I havenât seen him around and even at meetings where he was supposed to be, he didnât come but sent a representative instead.
He respected my demand and decided not to show up for anything.
âFocus Isabel! Focus!â I complained bitterly when I realized that hadnât been doing what I was supposed to be doing but instead thinking of my ex and baby daddy.
âHow is everything going Chef Payne?â I snapped back to reality when I heard Leahâs voice. We were back to work and everyone was patronizing the restaurant as usual.
âIt⦠I trailed off when I realized that I forgot what it was that I kept in the gas.
âOh my goodness!â I gasped, quickly walking over to where I was cooking to check on what I was doing.
âWhat were you thinking? I hope the food isnât burnt?â Leahâs asked, following hot on mg trail.
âI was just a little⦠whatever but itâs not burnt. Itâs all fine and I will try to conâ¦â I trailed off when I realized that I didnât know what it was I was saying.
âI hope all is well though. Is it?â She asked.
âAre you fine?â She asked and I nodded my head.
Me ntally, I cursed Logan for he was the one who got me distracted. If only he didnât listen to me and did otherwise, maybe Iâd be so angry at him and want him far away but instead, he has decided to stay away just as I have requested.
It didnât sit well with me. I was angry at myself at the same time and I disliked how distracted I was by it.
Later that day, I closed from work and decided to go get some coffee before heading home.
âA cup of latte please,â I ordered.
âAlright.â
Shortly I got my latte and headed out. As I was walking, I bumped into someone.
âIâm so sorry.â I heard a masculine voice,â
âItâs⦠alright,â I said but halted when I saw the face of the person had bumped into.
âRaymond?â I called, surprised to see him because it had been a long time since I last saw him.
Raymond and I werenât close but new as skeins who helped me back at the pack house..
âLong time no see Isabel,â He said.
I smiled. âLong time no see.â
âHow have you been?â

Tve been good and you? I didnât think Iâd bump into you today of all day,â I remarked.
65%
âYes. Ever since I saw you at the hospital, I havenât seen you. It has been four years since we last saw. How has everything been? I hope itâs all good with you?â
I nodded my head. âYes, it is. I., I am stunned honestly. I didnât think weâd see today.â
âI honestly didnât think Iâd come across you today. Itâs honestly nice to see you healthy. Where are you heading to now?â He asked.
âI just got coffee and I am going home,â I replied,
âOh, I see. I want to get a cup of coffee too. If you donât mind wait a little so we can sit and talk and catch up you know? Or are you in a haste?â He asked.
I shook my head. âNo, Iâm not.â
âAlright then. Thatâs good. He replied.
He ordered his cup of coffee and we went to sit.
âAre you married now?â I couldnât help but ask.
âNo. Iâm not.â He replied.
âWhy? You never found a mate or you refused to get married?â questioned.
âWell, I have a mate but Iâm not ready for that letâs not talk about me. Letâs talk about you. You look good honestly. The good type and Iâm sure Alpha Logan would be happy to see you again.

When he mentioned Logan, I was immediately reminded of the fact that we hadnât seen for three weeks simply because I asked for him to give me space.
My anger resurfaced again.
âLogan?â I tried to act like I hadnât seen him and it had been a long time since I heard his name because Raymond seer to not be aware that weâd met from the way he was speaking.
âYes. He hasnât been happy since you left you know.â He said.
âWhat do you mean?â I couldnât help but ask inquisitively.
âItâs not in my place to speakâ He said.
âWhat do you mean by that? If itâs not in your place to speak then why did you begin the conversation? Iâd advise you speak because now that you have started it, Iâd love to get to the end of it.â I smiled, pressing my lips firmly.
âYou know Logan loves you right?â
âEnough to jilt me at the altar and make me an object of ridicule Alright, thatâs true then. He does excruciatingly like me.â I replied.
âNo. Iâm serious. You know he does. For the prince that he was, he went against everything just to be with you his mate, even against his father. Iâm sure you might have thought there was a reason behind it because honestly there was a reason.â He explained.
Logan already said rose reasons to me but it wouldnât be bad to hear from his angle too.

âWhat are you talking about?â I asked.
×××ס

âLogan jilted you at the altar not because he used you or anything but to protect you. He had no choice and to protect you, he decided what was best for you.â He answered.
âFor years he hasnât been himself. He moved out from the parlance and went to get a place for himself. He never for once shared a room with Jade. He has been in pain for years, wishing that he hadnât done what he did.â
If I had heard this for the first time, maybe my reaction would have been different but hearing this from another made me convinced completely. I believed Logan when he told me but now I was fully convinced.
Logan has always loved me and he did what he had to do because of the lies concocted by Jadeâs father.
Now that I thought about it, it made sense. Jade has always been obsessed with Logan. Even before he returned, she considered herself his and was treated like the future Luna of the pack. She wasnât pleased when she knew I was Loganâs mate and when he accepted me, she vowed to make my life a living hell.
She disliked me and she never hid it. She looked for reasons to get me in trouble. Logan had protected me while hurting me. He hurt me to protect me and that thought made my eyes filled with tears.
I fought back the tears that threatened to slip down my cheek.
âI know heâd be happy when he finds out that you are here. He loves you, Isabel. He always has and he always will and if he sees you now, heâd do anything to have your forgiveness and I hope that youâd forgive him.â
âForgive him? Is that a request?â I asked.
âI mean I donât know and I mean you might have another in your life so pardon me for being too quick. I justâ¦â
âItâs fine.â I cut him off.
âThanks for telling me all of that. Now letâs focus on you.â I decided to brush aside the topic.
âFocus on me? What is there about me that could be talked about?â
âOh well, I donât know,â I shrugged. âYou tell me.
âIâm not married. Iâm Loganâs beta and I have a girl Iâm interested in but sheâs not interested in me and she even went as fa
far as denying me when I saw her so thatâs it,â he said and I chuckled.
âWhat? You mean you like someone? Wow.â
âThatâs karma dealing with me for refusing my mate and wanting another,â He chuckled.
âMaybe thatâs it but whatâs wrong with your mate that you donât want her but you want another? Is she from the same pack?â I couldnât help but ask.
âIf itâs the woman I like? Sheâs not from the same pack. She seems like a lone wolf and if itâs my mate, sheâs from the pack. Itâs not like thereâs anything wrong with her but Iâm not just into her and thatâs it,â he explained.
âHmm.â 1 hummed.
âIâm serious thought but itâs fine. I will get over her and itâs just time. Besides I havenât rejected my mate. I just didnât accept her so I donât even know whatâs wrong with me at the same time
âMaybe you should try and get to know your mate. She might turn out to be the best and for the other woman, let her go. You know sometimes the people we want might not be the best option for us,â I advised.

âWhy do I feel you are speaking from experience!â He teased.
âMaybe because I am.â I replied and we both burst into a fit of laughter.
It has always been easy to have a conversation with Raymond. We havenât seen for four years yet the conversation went smoothly.
âAlright then. It was nice seeing you again. Iâm really glad to come across you tonight.â I said to him as so stood up from the
âIt was nice to see you too Isabel.â He said and we shook hands before parting ways.
