Chapter 59

Ana

It’s been the second day of nursing Dad and so far, he is spotting changes. I am feeling a lot better myself and Jace too. I can feel my wolf recovering but not yet fully. The wounds and the pain I had is no longer there and this is hope for me.

Maybe tomorrow or the day after that, I will be able to start training.

On the other hand, Alpha hasn’t appeared since he overheard our little talk with Jace. Jace is not left out either, he is distressed and spends most of his time time in bed brooding.

To make sure everything goes back to normal, I have decided to go to Alpha’s house to talk to him. It will be also a good chance for me to see my son.

“Will you be, okay?” I ask my mate, gently patting his head.

“Yes, I will be up in a bit” Jace mutters turning to the other side, away from me and I sigh getting up. I have been trying to cheer him up from yesterday but it’s pointless. He keeps pushing me away.

I enter my dad’s room and sigh in relief as I watch him sleep. His wounds are healing up and his heartbeat is back to normal again, which is a relief. It’s just a matter of time before he opens his eyes.

I k*ss my father’s forehead and walk out of the room. The witch whose name is Kyle is already waiting for me at the front door and I adjust my hoodie to cover my head.

“I am going to cast a spell and we will teleport to Alpha Edwards house” He holds my hand and I nod thinking it’s cool. And here I thought we would be walking there.

“Okay, I am ready” I eagerly whisper, and he chuckles at my impatient face. If I were born a witch, I would be untouchable.

Minutes or seconds later, we appear in our living room. It was just a blur and I didn’t get time to enjoy the ride. It’s been long since I was here and I can’t help but feel nostalgic. This house was once a happy home. There was always laughter and happy chatters before everything crumpled and it’s still crumbling. It only took one wrong move and the once-happy family is no more.

“Take your time,” Kyle says easing himself onto one of the couches and I nod trudging toward the stairs. My sense of smell is back, so I follow the only scents in the house and they lead me to the master bedroom.

At eight in the morning, Alpha Edward and my son are still in bed. The window curtains are drawn so there is enough light in the room to spot the two figures on the bed. I quickly rush over in relief when I lay my eyes on my son.

He is fine. My baby will be the strongest child I will ever know. I slowly lie beside him and run my fingers through his hair as I frequently k*ss his head. I missed him so much.

“Ana?” Alpha groggily whispers, opening his eyes and he frantically looks around before glancing back at

“Did I wake you?” I whisper back and he shakes his head sitting up and pulls the covers down his waist. “No honey, It’s late morning anyway. Where is Jace?” He eagerly asks. Staring into his sad eyes, I feel pity because he doesn’t deserve this.

“That is why I am here, Dad. He thinks you are mad at him and he keeps blaming himself for hurting you. He hasn’t left the bed since you left, and It’s making me worried” Dad sighs and holds his cheek looking deep in thought.

“I have known that for a while. When I found out what my mate had been doing behind my back, I started investigating her, and I found so much dirt including the fact that the son I have loved so much all my life, wasn’t mine”

“He is my pride, Ana. He always was. Every time I see him I feel content in my heart. He is a good boy, and Goddess knows what he means to me. We have come too far and I don’t understand why I have to be

the one on the losing end” His voice breaks and when I see a tear drop from his left eye, I quickly move to his side and embrace him.

“First, it was you dear. But even though you left, you were mated to my son and I still had you as my daughter. But now that son isn’t mine anymore, this baby isn’t my grandchild anymore and you are not my little girl anymore. Tell me what I should do Ana. Why am I being punished and for what mistake? Dad looks at me and I hastily wipe away his tears. I don’t know what to tell him that will ease his pain. He is a good man and doesn’t deserve these tears.

“That’s not true Dad. We love you just as much. We have no control over what happens in our lives but some things will never change. You brought me up as your daughter and the love and care you gave me, will never be erased in my heart. The love I have for you doesn’t compare to what I feel for Noah because I have loved you for a long time”

“The reason why Jace is distressed is because he feels guilty you are hurting. He doesn’t wish to replace you because you are the best dad he ever had. He is staying in that bed because he fears if he wakes up, he will face the reality of you hating him. Jace deeply loves you. Liam is comfortable around you because he loves you. Please, stop stressing over things we can’t control, and let’s just be happy together I coo k*ssing his cheek. Blood relations don’t matter. What matters is that we have always been here for each other for so long.

The man has looks and since wolves age slower, he will still find love out there if he wants. The same goes for Noah. Just because our partners are undeserving doesn’t mean we have to punish ourselves all our lives.

“We need to get out of here. The queen’s entourage just entered the pack” Kyle barges into the room startling us.

“What happened? Why is she here?” I get up and quickly pick up my son. There is no way I am living him

for her.

“Maybe she is becoming suspicious. I told you it would only worsen” Dad rushes to the closet and within minutes, he comes out with another duffel bag.

“This is Liam’s stuff. Keep yourselves safe”

Heavy thuds on the ground from outside reach our ears and when the front doors forcefully open, Kyle grabs our hands and chants the same words from earlier.
