Babe, relax and breathe,” Slowly, he did as | instructed.
Who is here, Sweetie? | thought you were being chased by a ghost!” ‘Ghost? | wish!” he scoffed.
“Luis, are you alright?” Ellis asked him. Luis only noticed him now and glared at him. He ignored the alpha and breathed through his nose,
making Ellis grimace.
“The witch, babe. The f ucking seductress witch is here,” he said. | was trying to hide my excitement. Finally, a name and a face for a woman who stole my best friend’s heart. | was so keen to see her. “Witch? There no witches in this pack,” Ellis said.
|
Not a literal witch. I'll tell you later,” | told him, and he nodded.
‘Breath in, Luis. Where is she?” | asked.
“I don’t know, but | can smell her. She smells like c oconut and — and honey,”

‘Should we follow the scent?” | asked. He shook his head.
No, stay here. | will,” he said and walked away.
“Awitch?” Ellis asked with a frown. | sighed and turned to him. Awoman he had a one stand with,” he said.
“| thought he was g ay,” Ellis frowned cutely. | see where my children got it from.
“I

chuckled. A low growl reverberated from Ellis’ chest, and he covered it with a chuckle. He was f ucking jealous. | smirked and opened my mouth to tease him, just as two people | didn’t expect entered the house. David and Charlotte.
Hello,” they smiled and waved at us. Just like that, reality came in, and | moved away from my ex-boyfriend whom | had ambiguous feelings for. The two made their way toward us as though they were close friends. The smiles on their faces shine. Your mate,” Charlotte said
Baby, why wasn’t | told about this? I’m hurt. Linking her arm to Ellis, a snarl left my lips. | hated seeing her close to Ellis. | had no time to ponder my emotions when | felt an arm circle my waist and a kiss placed on my lips.
Hi, babe, you look beautiful. Isn’t my girlfriend gorgeous,” David turned to Ellis with a smirk, showing me off to him. | felt like some prize, and | didn’t like that. | pulled away from him.
| could smell the faint scent of alcohol on his breath.
What are you doing here?” | asked, my voice cold but quiet.
“We agreed I'd come with you, remember,” he said with his

characteristic smile.
That was before what happened in the office,” | hissed, and all color drained from his face. He stared at me with sorry eyes, and a whimper left his lips.
11
I'm sorry about that, baby,”
What did he do?” Ellis’ voice was detrimental, shrugging Charlotte
off him. He had a frightening expression on his face.

‘Don’t meddle in their affairs, my love,” Charlotte weakly reached her
ar
to Ellis, but his stare alone made her retract.
The tension in the room was high. We all snapped our eyes to CC when she approached.
She pointed her finger at Charlotte.
"

What are you doing in my house?” the way she said it made seem
like she abhorred her. Her expression was stone cold. Charlotte
looked to her mate for help, but Ellis gaze was on David.
Well, Well. CC. | heard that the twins were coming to the manor, and
| wanted to be there for it. It is a joyful occasion for the family,” Charlotte quivered as she explained her reason for being here. CC sighed and glared at her.
11
You know how | feel about you- | don’t like you and you’re unwanted here,” | almost gasped at CC’s scathing words. Charlotte was humiliated, and not even Ellis defended her. CC wasn’t one to hide her true feelings, but saying that in the presence of everyone was a little...
‘Oh, admit it. It's satisfying to see her get embarrassed by CC,’ a

Alittle,’ | admitted to Vee. What was more gratifying was the distance Ellis kept from her. It dawned on me. He truly didn’t love h and she was forcing herself on him and his family. Ellis was tellin me the truth when he said he didn’t love her. A small smile curled on my lips.

Wipe it off, he’s staring,’ Vee said. My eyes locked with Ellis, and he had a knowing stare in his eyes. F uck. Does he know | was thinking about him? | was red and looked away.
David Kofflin,” CC’s tone was ominous. Her gaze showed hate for David. David smiled warily but maintained a poker face. Lady Christina Carter, thank you for inviting us-”
‘l extended no invitation to you,” she interrupted him sharply. “I
wanted to see my grandkids and their mother, Love,”
11
Well, if you don’t know, Love and are together now. She asked me to come for emotional support. This family hasn’t been too good to her,” he said, glancing at Ellis. | glanced at him with venom eyes. How dare he speak on my issue with Ellis?
“|
Stop. It isn’t why we are here,” | told David calmly. Why was David being insufferable? Was he always aggravating? | wondered. CC glanced at Ellis with concern, | could tell they were mind-linking.
Whatever they discussed privately, CC sighed, and wore a gentle smile,

Looks like I'll deal with these unwanted guests,” she smiled tightly.
The chef announced that the food was ready, and CC nodded.
Well, Let’s all go to the outdoor garden and-”
“Hello, Family,” We all turned to the main entrance, and my eyes
widened at the man standing there. Both Ellis and CC growled. They were fuming in anger. Well, looks like today was the day for unwanted guests indeed.
