Contracted to the wrong Alpha
Chapter 113
Lilia’s Pov
I didn’t want Lex to leave for anywhere, I didn’t care if I was being clingy or worse than what anyone would describe me at the moment. I just didn’t want him to go to the woods or undergo another argument with his father when the unexpected happened.
My Uncle visited and I couldn’t be more relieved!
It made me remember Melody whom I had stupidly left after my hot run for survival. She was schooling over there so I’m sure it would be fine, I’ll make a call later.
Lex, who has suggested a lot to keep me busy, felt satisfied at my uncle’s presence and kissed my head.
“I’ll be back tomorrow, I need to catch up on some things in the company.” He said and I smiled at him, nodding excitedly.
“Promise me, you won’t kill Axel with ice cream Lilia.” He begged and I giggled.
“I won’t Lex, don’t let me say silly things please.”
“I love you flower.” He whispered and I chuckled, giving a quick kiss on his lips.
“I love you too.”
“Does the Alpha attend concerts, Lilia? You’ve missed a lot in the last two seasons, tell him to come with us this time around, we’ll wear matching outfits, light candles, and sing along with three different boys’ bands!” Ionna screamed in excitement and Lex made a cringe face, staring at my uncle.
“Is that what you let her do? She’ll get obsessed!”
“She’s already obsessed, a day without Stray, BTS, or Seventeen is hell I’m my home.” My uncle confessed as if in pain and I giggled, knowing I spoiled her.
Tessy and I were the origin of this addiction and when my cousin comes to visit, she’ll sneak into my room at night to sing and yell while watching their videos.
“You’re unlucky then ”
“No Alpha, Lilia is wild. You just haven’t seen that side yet. We’ll see you later then.” He bade Alex who stared at me again before exiting the room.
“How are you Lilia, you don’t know how worried I was. I died and resurrected the day they kidnapped me, I discovered that It was my wife who ratted us out when they came looking around for you in each neighborhood.”
“I had a feeling she did, I was smart enough to escape before they could get to me and a little girl from the streets saved my life by using social media.”
I sighed in relief and he nodded in relief too. “Where’s your wife?” I asked curiously.
“I Filed for a divorce the moment I was freed. Your presence made me discover that she wasn’t good for me or my children. I’ll be fine Lilia, don’t worry. I think you should fill this uncle of yours with what transpired between you and the Alpha so quickly, I’m glad you’re glowing.”
I shook my head and took him and stood up, “That’s girly talk Uncle, not for you. Let me get you all something cold to drink, I’m craving Ice cream already.”
As If I was being exposed and eavesdropping, a maid came in immediately and stopped me.
“I’ll get it, Luna, just tell me what you want.” She smiled at me and I frowned. My frown escalated real quickly into anger as I recalled her Instantly as one of the maids who had bashed me and let me pick up the spoon from the floor to eat and praise Seraphina.
“What did you just call me?” I asked and she swallowed hard.
“L.. Luna?”
“You’re not sure?”
“Luna..” she stated boldly this time and I nodded in satisfaction. ” I called you Luna.”
“Wow! That’s interesting but I need you to do something for me, I’m very allergic to hypocrisy and a disgusting attitude. I need you to fetch out all the maids that have served me during the rogue test. It’s important I separated them, don’t you think so?” I asked and she swallowed hard with a nod.
“Good, now do that, and let me serve my uncle. Don’t worry, I’ll be fine!” I stated coldly and she broke down in a sob which had nothing to do with my business.
In no time, I brought the cool drinks to serve my cousins and Uncle.
“Can I get a napkin Lilia, I’ve spilled the drink.” My fifteen-year-old cousin pleaded and I smiled, going back to get a napkin while I opened my ice cream to savor it.
“We saw a beautiful but scary lady outside while we came inside Lilia, she spoke to Dad,”
Ionna told me but her father snapped at her with a very fierce growl.
“Shut up Ionna, you shouldn’t interfere with the adult’s issue.”
I scooped a large amount of the ice cream and ate while I just shrugged. It could be a random lady and Ionna can be very inquisitive.
“I’m sorry Dad, I just didn’t like her eyes and the way looked at us.” Now that piqued my interest, I watched how my uncle shifted uncomfortably in his seat.
“Who is she, uncle?”
He chuckled nervously and waved his hands. “It’s nothing, one of the pack members who seems to know me was trying to greet me.”
“That wasn’t a greet, it was a threat,” Ian added and I stood upright, feeling uncomfortable. Did my uncle have enemies here?
“What’s she like Ian, I don’t think your dad has any enemies around.”
“It’s nothing Lilia, you know how inquisitive your cousins can be. It’s just-”
My cousins were not having it with their father because they cut him off instantly.
“She emitted bad energy dad, we don’t like her and we hope you avoid her! We didn’t go in as you had ordered, we peeped. We just couldn’t hear a thing she was saying, just avoid her okay.” Ionna said, sipping her juice and smiling but my uncle was overreacting.
He froze midway and the doorbell rang at that moment, distracting everyone.
“You don’t have to be mad at them uncle, they won’t be so inquisitive next time.” I chuckled and stood up to attend to the person despite the maids.
“Please don’t take your Ice cream Lilia, I want to have a taste by stealing it,” Ian whined and her sister nodded as if it was planned.
“Yes, yours would be sweeter because you added some powdery flavor to it. Isn’t it Dad? You said it’s for ice cream.” I froze at that moment and stared at my uncle whose reaction was slowly connecting the dots.
“Powder flavor?” I almost choked and he didn’t say a word, nor looked at me until I pushed the plate of ice to the kids and he kicked it off with a very mighty strength sending the ice to the ground as it melted.
My eyes widened, reality hit me so hard and it was too late as the kid’s words replayed in my brain.
“Tell me Ionna, that lady Dad was talking to…does she have light brunette hair?”
She slowly nodded, totally confused at what was going on.
“She has a bright hazel eye too.”
Oh my goodness! Seraphina!
I looked at my uncle who swallowed nervously and stood up.
“What did you put in my Ice Cream Uncle Pedro?” I gasped and suddenly felt a sharp pain slice through my stomach in dread.
“Tell me, did that powder come from Seraphina? Did you just poison me?” I yelled in tears, I couldn’t believe the betrayal and lies on my face and he swallowed.
“She’s a witch Lilia and she threatened the lives of my children. I couldn’t tame that risk!”
” How could you?” I fell to the ground and whispered. “How would…ah!”
“You’ll be fine, it’s only going to flush your baby out soon and you’ll be alive. You can have another one Lilia but I can’t have mine. I’m sorry!” He blabbed, sending the children away and I shook my head.
My baby!
Not again, not again, please.
This is Lex’s happiness, I can’t let this happen.
“Doctor, someone should call the doctor please.” I wanted to yell but it only came out as Whispers.
“Oh my goodness, Lilia!” I heard my mum’s scream as she rushed to me.
“Why are you standing there like a moron Pedro, my daughter is in pain!” She cried and I groaned.
“You came Mum?”
“Yes sweetheart, I did. I’m sorry my love. I should have thought of what you wanted.”
“Mum, take me to the hospital now or I’ll lose the baby,” I told her and she turned to Pedro.
“You’re a doctor, do something!” She yelled and I clutched her clothes.
“Except you want me to die, then you’ll let him touch me. Be fast mun, please take me anywhere!”
“Tyson!! Come right now or if anything happens to my daughter, it’s damn over between us.” She yelled my father had never fasted at that moment, taking me up from the floor and taking me away from the Mansion.
