Hey, | am looking for your mother. Have you seen her?” he asked.

Cousins

Love

| was nervous to go to the charity gala with Ellis because | knew the headlines that would follow the following morning if they saw us together. However, with encouragement from Luis, | did.

Ellis looked breathtaking in a tuxedo and a bowtie. | could tell he was excited to go with me to the gala. He kept staring at me with deep love in the car, happiness radiating off him.

Arriving at the gala and being hounded by reporters brought back fun memories for me.

Our arms were linked as we greeted and discussed with the guests.

| excused myself from Ellis when | spotted my cousins, Erickson, and Chadwick in the crowd. They were my aunty Arya’s children. They weren’t her biological children, but she raised them since they were born. They are triplets, but their sister, Rosa, whom we call Rose, married her childhood lover, Alpha Ajax Yang, so she was staying in his pack.

Women were crowding them, and they were flirting with all of them. | rolled my eyes. | approached the two mischievous alphas, and they beamed when they saw me.

“4

(1)

Cousin,” they said, each one kissing my cheek.

“Hey, you two,”

With one hand gesture from Erickson, the ladies surrounding them left, not without giving me a deadly glare first.

Didn’t they hear you call me cousin?” | facepalmed.

“|

‘They are obsessed. They can’t help it,” My cousins were so co cky. We exchanged pleasantries, and | was glad they were doing alright.

Aunty Arya told me you found your mate. Congratulations. Where is she?” | said excitedly. They shared a glance.

“Well, she kinda ran away from us,” Erickson said like it didn’t matter.

| saw an emotion of hurt on Chadwick's face.

But why?”

“Well, she couldn’t decide whom she wanted between us, so she ran,”

Erickson said.

Erick! You made her choose?” | asked incredulously.

We couldn’t share her,” They said, glaring at each other.

But you share everything! Why not the person the moon goddess blessed you with?” | asked. | was angry at them.

“| don’t think we could share a mate... She’s too precious,” They were too casual about this which made me angry.

“You gave her an impossible choice, and the poor girl left,”

“4

She didn’t leave willingly actually. This f ucking as shat banished her from the pack,” Chadwick hissed. | gasped.

“What?”

| already apologized about that. We should move on and find her,” Erickson sighed, rolling his eyes. | was about to open my mouth to speak when someone stood close to me. The air on my neck bristled, and my skin crawled as | turned my neck to look at the man. Maleck.

He had a smile on his lips as he stared at me. | faked my own and moved closer to my cousin. They saw how uncomfortable | was and put me between them, glaring at Maleck.

Maleck,” | said.

‘Love. | spotted you and wanted to say hi. | missed you,” | gaped at the audacity of this man. Did he miss me? Since when are we close

for him to miss me?

“Oh,” is all that left my mouth.

“Buddy, leave. We are having an important discussion,” Erickson growled, his eyes flashing. Yep, he’s a Jones alright. Maleck narrowed his eyes at him and smiled before extending his hand to Erickson, but Erickson didn’t shake his hand. He placed his

hand back to his side.

“I'm sorry. When Love is near me, | don’t notice many people around,”

Maleck chuckled, but no one laughed with him.

“Now, you notice us. Leave,” Chadwick growled.

“Love, can | talk to you in private? It's important,” he said, but | shook my head. | didn’t want to be in a secluded area with Maleck.

“I'm busy, Maleck,” | said politely.

He nodded, ” Next time then,”

We watched him walk away. My cousins frowned.

“| don’t like him,” Chadwick bristled, and | nodded in agreement.

“He likes you a little too much, Love,” Erickson said. Maleck’s sudden likeness of me was mysterious.

He sees how his cousin wants you, and now he does too. He

competes with Ellis,’ Vee told me. Indeed.

It's nauseating,’

Just stay away from that man,’ Oh planned to.

“Is that Ellis Carter? “ Chadwick asked. | turned my head to my left. Ellis and CC were talking to an older man.

“| heard he found his mate. Are you alright, Love?” They gave me sympathetic looks. | growled inwardly at the thought of Charlotte. It was a good thing she missed the event otherwise I'd lose it and f ucking slap her when she does as much as breathe.

“I'm alright. | came with him,” | informed them, and their eyes widened.

Da mn. | have no doubt you two are mates, and the moon mother

made a mistake,” Chadwick said. Ellis walked towards us and went to my side.

His hand was gently placed on my lower back. My cousins exchanged a glance before forcing smiles on their faces. Yeah, my family will never see him the same,

Ellis, it's been a while,” Chadwick gritted his teeth.

“Last | heard, you dumped my cousin and ran off with your mate. But

Enough, you two,” | interrupted quickly as | felt Ellis’ body started to

react.

“We are still in the city. Love. I'll come to see my nephew and niece before we leave,” Chadwick said with a smile. “4

Excuse us,” Erickson said with a tight-lipped smile.

‘They all don’t like me,” Ellis sighed, looking in the direction they

went.

No, they don’t,” | said. He opened his mouth to say something but stopped. His eyes went over my shoulder, and | followed his gaze.This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
