Keira POV.
I wasn’t taking any more of their words and whispers, I couldn’t take it anymore, he’s my mate, I’m not giving him up. Like it or not he’s mine, after the funeral, I held his hand and walked back to the house with him. He kept eyeing me like he wants to say something, or maybe ask something, I didn’t push him or say anything until we made it home.
We went upstairs to my room, he was still worried, messing with his shirt, I let him sit on the bed and went back downstairs, I had some work to do but I’ll be back later.
“Kei… mama where you going?” he asks in a whimpering voice, he sounded sad that I’m leaving him.
“I’ll be back in a bit little one, try to rest” I reply going down to my office, Faith joined me soon, she took a seat on my desk and turned to me.
“What’s wrong with you girl?” Faith asks. I just shake my head at her, I’m exhausted, I might be a cold-hearted bitch but I get tired from all this. I’m exhausted, I want to just get upstairs, cuddle with Sammy and sleep, but I can’t do that yet, I have to finish all the paperwork in my office.
“Troubles in heaven?” Faith asks.
“No” I reply coldly
“Don’t give me the cold treatment, the little one giving you hard time?” she asks.
“No, it’s nothing Faith let it go” I say to her before throwing her out so I can finish my work.
My work took too long, by the time I made it upstairs I was sure the little one would be asleep, I went inside the room slowly not to wake him. My baby wasn’t asleep, he was sitting on the bed, still dressed fully awake and on the phone, I heard him mumble few words before going in.
“Sammy, who are you talk to?” I ask in a firm voice, it’s the second time I catch him talking on the phone with someone and he wouldn’t tell me whom. He ended the call right away hiding his phone away, but I wasn’t letting it go this time.
“No one” he says hiding the phone.
“Samuel” I say in a growl, my wolf is on the verge of going crazy, Sammy lying to me isn’t helping right now.
“No one, I wanna sweep” he says trying to get under the sheets still dressed.
“Come here” I say getting over the bed and pulling his phone away from him, he started to fight and try to take it back from me.
“Samuel, who were you talking to this late?” I ask trying my best to hold back my beast, my possessive beast who wants to mark Sammy as theirs, jealousy is a big monster.
“No one…” he says but his words were cut by the ringing of his phone, I answered the phone making him jump wanting it back.
“Sammy why the hell did you close the line? Are you okay?” a male voice asks.
“who’s this?” I ask through gritted teeth.
“This is Alvin, alpha Keira?” he asks, he’s been talking to his brother the whole time, why is he hiding it from me!
“Yes” I answer before the phone was pulled from me by Sammy.
“Tawk to you later” he says ending the call right away.
“Sammy explain” I ask him hurt, why is he hiding things from me, even simple things. He just shrugs looking down, I was extremely pissed now. I wasn’t mad or angry, I was hurt, even my mate doesn’t want me, I’m just tired.
I let Sammy be and move to the bathroom, getting ready for bed, he looks at me like a sad lost puppy, he saw me get under the sheets and close my eyes. I don’t remember crying since so long, I didn’t cry when my parents died, I cried later that night when I was alone, but tonight I feel like crying.
Sammy got up and out of the bed, he went and got ready, while he was busy in the bathroom, I wiped my tears away and closed my eyes pretending to be asleep.
“Mama” I hear his voice says before slipping on his side of the bed, he tries to get closer to me before nudging me slowly.
“Yes Sammy?” I reply keeping my eyes closed.
“I accept you as mine and me as yours” he says making my heart skip a beat, he just accepted me as his mate. This time I do let my tears run freely down my face, I jump up from the bed hugging the little guy, I just forgot all my tiredness, bad mood, jealousy, all was forgotten.
