Chapter 460

460 BLEAK MORNING

“After that can we see mommy?” Aiden looked at Emily expectantly.

On the other hand, Emily didn’t understand why Aiden wanted to see Jasmine even after how cold she treated him. He always had this bright and happy expression on his face. He was a softie, even though he was the alpha’s child.

It was hard to see the shadow of his parents on him and that was a great thing. It seemed, he managed to get what little kindness and lovely side from both Liam and Jasmine had. One could say that part was hard to find, knowing how wicked they were.

“Sure.” Emily took his little hand and then led them away from there, she glanced one more time through her shoulder and then chatted lightly with Aiden until they arrived at the dining hall.

Ever since, Emily showed she had value by succeed to be Ariana’s apprentice and her skills was acknowledged by the alpha, she started to grow confidence and her self esteem was not that low like in the past few years, even with glaring scar on her face.

Emily found solace in the company of Eros, as he always told her how much he loved her and would never see her differently.

Somehow, it was not something that they were talking about, but more like a tacit understanding that they would end up together. They were together and it was not like a brother and sister, like they used to in the past.

Emily saw Eros like a man, so did he...

“Can I come to see you some time when you are doing your experiment?” Aiden asked innocently, as he took a mouthful of porridge in front of him.

.....

There were a few people in this dining hall of the house pack and all of them minded their own business, but mostly because they didn’t have anything to do to talk to Emily.

The people in this pack was no longer hostile toward Emily, but they didn’t warm up at her either, which was fine by her because she didn’t need them to start pleasantries talk with her.

“Sure, if your father allows you to come, you can come any time you want,” Emily said softly at him and took a tissue to dab his mouth, but she could see how his expression turned sour.

“Father will not like it,” Aiden replied sadly, he lowered his head because he felt dejected.

Emily knew why the alpha didn’t want him to come and see her and Ariana, because he thought that was not necessary and only wasting time, since he should start to train. After all, he was the first son of the alpha and it went without saying, he would be the next in line for the alpha’s position.

Liam had started to bring him to the training ground now.

“Maybe you can ask him after your training, I don’t think he will mind it, as long as you don’t skip the training,” Emily suggested and this cheered him up a little.

“Yes, I will do that,” Aiden said joyfully and then continue to eat his breakfast again.

Today, Emily would go with Ariana to the nearby city because they ran out of some herbs and would return this afternoon if they could collect everything.

Therefore, after Emily took Aiden to see Jasmine, she needed to go to their meeting point immediately, so they wouldn’t return when it was too dark.

“I don’t think your mother is awake,” Emily said to Aiden, after she asked the guards, who were guarding the alpha’s bedroom.

Emily didn’t understand, why Liam still had this urge to put two guards in front of the bedroom, as if Jasmine would run away. She didn’t think the woman had any desire to escape from this place any longer now.

She was... a little bit out of touch from reality...

???????????????? ???????????????????????????? ???????????????????????? ???????????????????? ???????? ????????????????????-????????????.????????????

Jasmine gave birth to her third child, which she named Kenna, there was a lot of complication, which almost took her life, but Emily and Ariana worked on it together and the two of them managed to save Jasmine and her daughter.

Due to her age and her complication when giving birth to Kenna, Jasmine would be in great danger if she was about to pregnant again, especially because she was no longer young anymore.

Ever since then, Liam rarely visited his bedroom to see Jasmine, the luna looked like an abandoned mistress, a woman that the alpha had forgotten about her existence, but then he let her to stay inside their bedroom, while Liam would occupy different room.

Not only that, despite everything that hinted he was no longer care about her, he still put two guards in front of the bedroom.

“Mommy,” Aiden called Jasmine, as he entered the room, while Emily followed him.

Usually, Jasmine would pretend that she didn’t see him, or she would blatantly ignore him, which made Emily grimaced by Aiden’s effort to see his mother, despite the way she treated him.

“Mommy,” Aiden called her again. “I bring breakfast for you.” He was holding a small bowl of porridge, because he thought the porridge today was delicious and he wanted her to try it.

However, it was not Jasmine, who woke up, but it was Kenna. The little girl, who just turned five years last months, rubbed her sleepy face. She was sleeping with Jasmine, because she insisted to have her daughter with her.

It was only Kenna that she cared, while for the twin, Jasmine didn’t think they even existed.

“Mommy is still sleeping,” Kenna said, she yawned and then curled her body under the blanket again, but the smell of porridge opened her eyes, as she blinked in curiosity.

Kenna and Aiden were in good term and used to play together, usually when Jasmine ignored him completely, he would play with Kenna instead.

But, because Liam took him to the training ground already, the little boy had a little time to play with his sister.

Emily was still curious about why he didn’t close with his twin. She rarely saw them together if it was not for formal occasion, where they should be seen together.

Meanwhile, Kenna would be left behind, because Liam hated her with passion and Emily could understand why. It was not a secret anymore for certain people that Kenna was not his daughter.

However, for other people, the reason was simply because the alpha preferred his boy rather than his girls, which was common for them.

“I will leave you here, okay?” Emily said softly to Aiden, as the little boy brought the porridge over for Kenna.

“Okay,” he said happily.

Before Emily left, she glanced at Jasmine, who was still sleeping. She spent most of her time to sleep. Sometime, she would forget to eat and bathe...

============================

The sleet last night had over, but now the sky was still dark, even though at this hour sun should have peeked through the horizon, which made the room felt so cold than usual.

However, it didn’t trouble Zuri, because she had Chaos’s arms wrapped around her body, as both of them laid down on the bed.

Chaos was still fast asleep and seemingly wouldn’t wake up for another hour, as he came very late last night, from where he went with Knox.

Gingerly, Zuri turned her body around to look at his face. He looked exactly like the man that she met twenty one years ago. In this life, they managed to stay together this far and there was nothing that made Zuri felt relieved to wake up by his side like this.

The gloomy sky didn’t make her feeling down at all. To be honest, Zuri like this weather. The dark sky, the cold atmosphere and also the warm from the man that she loved.

Zuri snuggled closer to him.

There were a lot of things that happened in the past six years, but the fact that they were still together right now put her at ease. They would take everything that came to their way one by one, until there was nothing thrown at them and they finally could live the way they wanted.

However, it was still a question about why Aaron didn’t make any trouble for the last three years, even the Ahega’s cocoons are no longer developing, although they couldn’t be cleaned completely from the tree of life’s trunk, but that was a relief, because the effect of it was massive, since people around that island would act more aggressive than usual.

That was because of the tree of life was affected.

Yet, though they didn’t say out loud, but this was a silence before storm. They knew Aaron was doing something right now in his silence.

Zuri pushed herself up and then kissed Chaos’s chin, but the man was still fast asleep, was not even aware of what she did.

=======================

“Morning,” Zuri greeted Darius, who was eating his breakfast, as he lifted his head to see her walked into the kitchen and prepared her own meal.

“You look awful,” Darius said.

“That’s an insult if coming from you,” Zuri retorted, but didn’t care much about his opinion.

Darius was not a bad person once you knew him better, but he was still a nuisance sometime, with his obsession to raid the shadow moon pack and how he tried his best to make Zuri take revenge on Liam, knowing they had the same hostile feeling against that alpha of that pack.
