Chapter 16

Alaria:

“Care to explain what the fuck you’re trying to do around my husband?” Katherine asked, catching my attention as I walked out of the kids play room.

I turned to look at the woman and a cold smile formed on my lips.

“Well, you can ask your husband. As you may know, he has been the one roaming around, following me wherever I go. If it were up to me, I would be anywhere but in the same room with your husband,” I said, crossing my arms over my chest as I looked the woman dead in the eye.

“Why did you come? If you knew that you had a son…”

“I believe that you met my brother. And I think that you of all people should be well aware that he is a new Alpha, and that means that as his sister, and the only living heir of the family; I am deemed to come and be there for him.” I said, and she shook her head. Her eyes met mine and I could tell that my words have triggered her. The anger could be seen in her eyes and I could see her jealousy despite her trying to mask it.

“Tell him that you don’t want to stay.” She said, and I laughed, shaking my head at her.

“Sweet love, I do NOT want to stay. It is your husband that is forcing me to. And I do not expect you to think that I will be leaving my son alone with you. Mind you, you don’t seem to like the perfect mother to your own son, I wouldn’t risk leaving mine with you.” She frowned at my words and I nodded at the door behind her. “Ladies, how are you?”

Katherine straightened, and I knew that she had caught her ‘friends” scents. It was one thing for her to be crossing limits with me, but it was another for her to be seen being jealous of me in front of the other women. With the figure and reputation that she had, I knew that all the ladies refused to have their husbands. around her. Some would even keep a very close eye on their men in fear of her.

“Alaria, we didn’t know that you were here.” One of the women, Yildez, said, smiling at me. I smiled and walked toward her, hugging her before flying a hello. kiss to her. The rest of the women, Bianca, Endar, and Jasmine did the same. I smiled at all of them before taking a step back.

“We heard that your father passed away. We didn’t see you at the funeral.” Bianca said, and I looked away. “I am sorry for your loss.”

“Don’t be,” Katherine said, and the ladies looked at her. “The woman was disowned. by her father. It is the reason why she didn’t come to the funeral. She knew that she wasn’t welcome and you know, she chose to spare herself the embarrassment of being kicked out.”

“You really do enjoy rubbing salt on a wound, don’t you, Katherine?” I asked, looking at the woman.

The ladies who stood shook their heads at her, and I took a deep breath.

“It is true, isn’t it? You were kicked out of the house and told to never approach.”

“Because I chose not to want you to by husband’s mistress. You know, you were that for so long that I did not want you to keep suffering the same fate, reputation, and embarrassment.” I said, watching as the girls laughed. Katherine’s face turned. red and she shook her head before walking past them, heading toward the door, leaving me with the women.

“Do not mind her. The woman is a gold–digger in every single way. I don’t even. know what Enzo saw in her, but then again, men don’t realize what they lose until they’ve already lost them.” Endar said, and I smiled, shaking my head at the Women.

“Now, now, ladies, we do not talk about private home matters. They do not concern me, and I do intend to involve myself between the pair.” I said, shaking my head. “I’ve had enough of their bullshit to last me a hundred years,”

All the girls laughed before they nodded at the kids‘ park, shaking their heads in question.

“Last I remembered, you had no child? What brings you here?” Bianca asked, and I smiled.

“I accepted the divorce because I was with child.” I said, nodding at Ashton. The girls gasped, and Yildez covered her mouth.

“Alaria, you could have told us to help you. We would have been more than glad to BGB|

“A mother has to make her sacrifices for her children, right?” I asked, and the girls nodded. “Please do excuse me, I need to speak to Enzo about the details of our son.”

“Enzo knows of him?” Bianca asked.

“Alaria, you have more tea to spill to us than anyone else does.” Endar said, and I laughed, shaking my head at them. “We really need to sit for a cup of coffee. We have a lot to talk about, and I think that we are going to end up with the tea of the year. You know, with you coming with a son, Katherine is going to end up having a lot more competition than she would like.”

“I am not here for that, ladies.” I said, and Yildez shook her head.

“Well, we still are here to support when things turn to that. And believe me, they are going to end up going as so.” Yildez said, shrugging her shoulders. I smiled and nodded in response before looking at the door, silently dismissing myself from them.

“I’ll see you girls around. And I am sure that we are going to have a lot to talk about…
