To those who encouraged me to go for my <b>master’s </b>program, y’all didn’t prepare me for this part (thesis) at all. Thank you so much for reading anding back each day for an update. We’re getting closer to the end and I can’t wait to start another book with you all
Ang’s POV
I removed my lips from Darius before I did something stupid. My body wanted him. No, scratch that, my body craved him but my brain doesn’t. The fact that he lied to <b>me </b>still came back to my head and I had to push him a few inches <b>away </b>from me.
My wolf whined. I sucked in my lower lip as 1 fisted my palm: I wanted to go back and kiss him. <b>The </b>temptation was so hard that I could barely see myself oveing it
“What’s wrong?” He asked so softly. I looked up. He was staring at me with so much passion and worry. My eyes fell to his <b>lips </b><b>and </b>I took a deep fucking breath.
“Nothing. I think I should go back. My mom and Reina <b>are </b>probably <b>waiting</b>.”
<b>“</b>Ang,” he moved closer to <b>me </b>and cupped my chin<b>. </b>“I don’t want you to hide anything from me, alright? If you’re <b>mad </b><b>at </b>me, let me know, if you’re worried about something, tell me,”
“I’m not mad at you. It’s just you lied to me and I can’t seem to let go of that.”
He closed his eyes for a few seconds then opened them to look at me.
“I was an idiot<b>. </b>I should’ve told you she was alive somewhere but my stupidity got the better part of me. I didn’t think that information was necessary since our life was just about us and not our past. Now, I realize my mistake, baby. I’m sorry that I hurt you with my lies,”
His apology was sincere and I understood.
“If you want to take some time out to think things through, that’s fine. Just don’t let go of us,”
He dipped his hand into his right pocket and brought out a beautiful ne, one just like Reina’s.
“Reina has one of these. I told him. I was suddenly overwhelmed with excitement. “<b>She </b>said you gave her.
He frowned a bit which <b>made </b>me bothered. “I did but..” he paused. “We need to talk about Reina<b>, </b>
“What’s wrong!? <b>Is </b>she okay? Did something happen when I was gone?”
He <b>shook </b>his head and smiled. “It’s not a cause for rm. Just something we should talk about”
I watched as he walked around me to settle behind my back. He pushed my hair to the side. I held it in ce so he could wear the ne for me. <b>“</b><b>To </b>beautiful” I mumbled happily.
“I know and at the <b>same </b>time, you can click that button and I’ll be wherever you are at any moment<b>,</b><b>” </b>
I was a bit jealous of Reina when I saw this with her. I thought he didn’t get me one.
He squinted his eyes and stared at me with a hint of yfulness.
“You know <b>you </b>just said that out loud right?”
Exped. “No, I didn’t.”
He shrugged as if he was going to drop the conversation and take me for my word. He raised an eyebrow and I <b>red </b>at him. He held my hand and kissed my clerks softly<b>. </b>
“Let’s talk about Reina, I urged him
If I hadn’t said
something <b>to </b>change the mood, I would’veunched myself at him <b>like </b>a rocket and kissed him terribly.
“Let’s start with thetest one,” he <b>took </b><b>a </b><b>seat </b>and gestured at me to sit beside him but I refused. I took a seat opposite him.
He stared at me, his eyes lingering on my lips, but he didn’t say anything
11:37 AM
“About the ne, I gave it
e it to her when she was still sleeping not when she <b>was </b>awake,”
1 adjusted myself to my seat because of how intense his gaze was “She said you told her how to use the button. Maybe she wasn’t asleep,”
<b>He </b>smirked. “No, baby<b>. </b>She was. Reina can see things,”
What I don’t <b>understand</b>. She can see things like, yes, she’s not blind. We all know that don’t we?” I asked nervously.
“That’s not what I meant, Baby. Our daughter <b>can </b><b>see </b>things that are not known to other people. Things <b>other </b>people cannot see<b>,” </b>
I gasped. “Like ghosts? Spirits!”
“She can see the future or maybe the moment. For instance, she knew you were going to be in danger if you left the pack. She knew I was going to be back the day I was and she knew Mason was back. Also, she knew Brit was in danger even before she was brought back into the pack,”
I sucked in a long breath. I held on to the edge of the chair.
“She <b>can </b>see things,” I repeated,
It <b>didn’t </b>make sense. None of it made sense to me. <b>It </b>wasn’t possible or was it?
“How long have you known?”
“The day you got kidnapped,
I shook my head. “I didn’t know anything. She must’ve had <b>a </b>tough time, wouldn’t she?”
Darius held my hand. That’s why we have to help her. Baby,”
“How are we supposed to help her! <b>She’s </b>a werewolf, do werewolf have that ability?” I was genuinely confused and at the same time ashamed of myself. I did not even know my daughter was going through <b>such </b>a <b>thing </b>and I called myself her mother,
“My mother had the same ability. I think Reina inherited her genes,
“Your mother!”
“Yes. It was hard at first but she found her way around it. All we have to do is find a way to keep this secret till Reina <b>is </b>old enough to understand <b>her </b>ability. We need to protect her and teach her how to keep this secret,
“How many people know about this?
Just you, me and Reina. I don’t know if your mom has <b>an </b>idea of it
“Maybe she does. I’ll ask her. So<b>, </b>how do we protect her, Darius?”
“I don’t know yet but r
I’ll talk to someone without leaving <b>a </b>hint about her identity. Anything to protect her,”
“My poor <b>baby</b>,” I cried
“<b>You </b>don’t have to be worried about Reina She’ll be <b>fine</b><b>. </b>We’ll be fine, I promise,
I opened my eyes and through the tears, <b>I </b>saw him crouching in front of me. I threw my hands around his neck and hugged him
“Thank you for being there for Reina when I couldn’t be,”
“<b>Don’t </b>way that baby,”
I might be mad at you
never got lo,”
but I still i
still have <b>to </b><b>say </b>this. While I was in Ryker’s <b>castle</b><b>, </b>I thought about the many <b>chances </b>I had to tell you <b>how </b>I felt but I
He <b>ced </b>a finger on my lips. “Don’t say it when you’re mad at me.
1 shook my head: I had to get it out of my chest. I didn’t want to keep holding on to my feelings when I couldn’t even function properly without lum beside <b>me</b>. My thoughts are filled with hip-
“I love you, <b>Beast</b><b>, </b>or <b>maybe </b>Gentle Beast,”
Heughed with me. I’m your Beast, baby. I’m whatever you want <b>me </b>to be
