“To your mate. | can’t be your center when she’s there,” My voice was low. My body was hot at our immediacy.

“| don’t love her... Not even a little bit,”

| was speechless. His words were dangerous, and they clutched in my head. They were on replay. | don’t love her, not even a little bit. What was he playing at? | observed his face, but it screamed sincerity.

circled his arms around my waist, pulling me closer to him. He kissed my cheek,

“You good?” He asked and glared at Ellis. Ellis’ gaze was raw and only concentrated on me. | looked everywhere but at him. | sucked in a breath and nodded.

“I'm good,” | answered. | moved from David as my body was slightly quivering now. The tension between the two alphas was discernible in the room. | focused on the kids, talking about what they saw here, but they got bored.

‘Go without me,” | smiled slightly. He was disappointed but nodded curtly. The twins didn’t seem to miss me so much. They were eager to leave. Ellis looked at me once, before leaving my office space.

“What the f u ck did he say to you?” David snapped, his crawls digging into my flesh in anger.

Oh my F uck, is this going to end!”

| was caught off guard by how rough he was, but only for a second.

‘Just who the f uck do you think you are speaking to me in that manner?” | retorted, propelling his hand away from my waist. | was sure it would leave a red mark.

He froze and stepped back from me. He turned his back and looked at me again.

I'm sorry for my tone. That man makes me sore. Love, you called me his name,” Oh, so he was using that now. | stared at him sharply

Get out,” | ordered. It was an alpha’s order. | held his gaze, my eyes

| was grateful that my kids insisted that David take him to his office, leaving Love and me alone. | told her | didn’t love Charlotte.

“Daddy, | want a lime and cheesecake flavored ice cream with a lot of toppings,” Solara said. We were in the car, going to get ice cream. Love was strict with their diet. She didn’t let them indulge as | did. | couldn’t say no to them.

| smiled at her, and she smiled back.

“And you, Cay?” | asked.

Jike vanilla,” he said.

Just vanilla?”
