“Is that what you think of me? I thought we were on the same page, Noah. I might have been quite pushy but you had the right to say no, instead of talking sh it behind my back” The woman angrily yells but the hurt and pain in his eyes don’t go unnoticed.

gave them their privacy. So, picking up my son once again, I quickly exit the room and tune out the loud voices behind me.

Lucky for me, I have two fathers so after leaving Liam in Alpha Edward’s care, I rush back to the training room.

Who could have thought I would find my mate training with Leo? Unlike with me, Jace is relentless. He is hitting his brother as if Leo is a da mn punching bag. Why can’t he be this way with me? It’s not like I am a delicate doll that is going to break if he hits harder.

“Urgh” Leo groans when his b*dy hits the ground and I chuckle taking his place. My mate hesitates but when I remind him of someone else training me through the mind link, Jace becomes serious and resumes the hard punches and kicks like he did with Leo.

“Wow! I underestimated you” My mate mumbles placing a delicate k*ss on my head. “You did so well” Jace gently smiles as he adorably stares down at me. We’ve been at it and I gave it my all. Blocking every punch and kick and sending him mine as hard as I could. I must say, it’s not as boring as I thought.

“Told you” I try pushing his sweaty b*dy from mine but he tightens his grip around me.” So, will I get a reward or something?” I suggestively whisper and he chuckles, rubbing his nose with mine.

“You just have to ask politely and I will deliver” My mate smirks and I can feel myself blushing like crazy.

“Do you have to flirt in my presence?” The forgotten person in the room reminds us of his presence but my mate doesn’t move an inch. I don’t know if they made up but I can tell Jace is still not Leo’s fan at all.

“I didn’t realize you were still here Leonardo,” Jace says without averting his attention from my face.

“You don’t have to be rude you know” Leo mumbles and my mate snorts as if it should be obvious he doesn’t like his brother.

“I just don’t like you” Jace rudely whispers, and I decide to chime in.

“I will take you. Give me your all” I hastly move from my mate’s arms surprising both of them. Leo must be desperate to be here and I can tell he is trying to amend his ways. We both need training so why not spar with him?

“No, Ana. You are not going close to him” Jace snaps and I sigh shaking my head. He is now overreacting. “I will do it” He pushes me behind him and takes my place.

“Okay, Alpha” I mumble, slowly exiting the room. If they want to kill each other they can go ahead.

“So, how did it go?” I ask my dad at the breakfast table. I didn’t realize how hungry I was until the aroma of sweet coffee hit my nostrils. It’s also because of the much-used energy I have used in that room.

“She left” Noah nonchalantly answers and I pause the toast on my l*ps which I was just about to munch on.

“I think you are being hard on her for nothing. She is not mum, dad. And the fact that Goddess chose her for you means she is worthy. Don’t be one of those who betray the mate bond like that. It hurts Dad” I disapprovingly whisper because I wouldn’t want anyone to experience that.

“You think I don’t know that? The woman I loved for years stabbed me in the back and left me for the dead. So I am sorry if choose to guard my heart and don’t end up half dead in an abandoned stinky cell” Noah angrily grits out and I look away feeling guilty. I almost forgot my mother betrayed him too.

“Let’s just have breakfast, Dad. You know I will support your every decision right? I will always be on your side” I reach for his fisted hand on the table and ease the pressure. He knows better and I should just mind my own business rather than try to tell him what to do and what not to do.

When he calms down, I offer a small smile which he returns with a sigh.

The breakfast is eaten in silence. Despite all the people living in his house, Noah only makes food for three people. Himself, Liam, and I. I wonder when he will start favoring my mate again.

“I signed you up in the royal school. You will learn what you need to know there. From how to be a leader to fighting skills” Dad breaks the silence and I nod before remembering my mate.

“Can Jace come?*

“There is one thing you don’t know about me, honey. I don’t forgive. Each time I see those people in my house, the urge to strangle them overwhelms me. I am only keeping them here because they are your mate’s family. When the old wolf is completely healed, I want them out of my pack. They can choose any other pack they want as long they are not sharing the same air I am breathing” The previous unclenched fist tightly clenches again and Noah noisily slams his fork on the table.

It appears as if my conversation this morning is not in his favor. I would be mad too. If someone challenged me for the throne and took my mate for themselves. I completely understand Dad’s sour mood towards Andrew. He took mum from him and together they faked her death. All the time my dad had been mourning for his dead mate, she was happily enjoying life with her lover.

Then when he finds out that she is alive, they stab him in the back and plot his death. Andrew might have a good heart but my father will always consider him as the man who replaced him.

“I will let them know” I whisper, slowly placing my fork on the table. I think he needs time for himself. “I will go check on Liam”

“Baby, I am sorry” Noah quickly takes my hand and deeply sighs. “I am sorry for shouting at you. You are the last person I want to upset Gia, I didn’t mean to yell, Okay?”

“Trust me, I know. I think you need a long run to ease the pent-up anger” I chuckle improving the mood and he follows suit.

“You are right, I will be out for a while” Noah k*sses my head and takes the back door

out.
