2. Why is she treated like that?*
All the pupils moved at the one and only breathtaking face while the owner of it strode toward the two royally dressed men in the corner with his nameplate on the airport. “Emmett, My son!” He was engulfed in a tight hug by his father without so much as expressions of love entertaining his face.
Twelve years matter, more when your son is an ass who frequently gets you in the bad list of the people. And when you have to send him away to another country for schooling, you stay in a guilty conscience for only the people you know your spoiled brat is going to stay with.
“Dad! I missed you." Emmett said. "And… you look old.” Alpha Hawkins let out a chuckle amidst his moistened peepers as he monitored his son.
He has changed for real bad. Bad for the women, to be honest! He was no more the chubby cute Emmett with adorable cheeks. Rather he has now transformed into a handsome man with perfect jawline, wooing Grey eyes, soft short hair suiting his personality and above all— a yummy body with salient features that cannot be hidden under the white shirt he wore.
It instead highlighted his glorious features, those eminent eight pack abs making the passing by women drool over them. Emmett enjoyed the attention they showered him with as he blew some air from his mouth.
“You need not remind me, son. I know I am old now and that is what brings you here.” His father replied.
Emmett smiled with a smirk and raised his collars like he was praised when it was just a mere remark.
His eyes travelled everywhere amusingly while he relished the memories of his childhood. Twelve years is not a small period, a lot of things including Emmett himself have changed severely.
“Gosh, dad isn’t that the same old park where I had broken Roman and his friends’ teeth in a fight!” He squealed, enjoying the moment shooting gazes over the outside scenario from the window of his car.
It was Jasper, Roman’s father who chuckled, answering him, “Yes, that is the same park, Emmett.” Emmett looked at the passing by area silently remembering the old memories. This has been another important part of his childhood.
“By the way Jasper, how is your son? Is he the same old b***h or has he changed any bit!” Alpha Hawkins and Jasper were caught off guard over his statement.
He directly called the beta by his name bewildering not only his father alone but Jasper himself. “If yes then I am sorry to say, I will have to elect my own beta. I cannot work with a person who has been my enemy someday. And honestly, I have already decided to make a whole lot of changes in the rules and regulations after today.” There was silence in the car, none of the two could speak anything ahead as his finishing sentence was enough to give them worry!
The remaining ride to the pack house was filled up with only and only with Emmett’s remarks of amusement while the other two along with the driver sat silently. It was not because they did not want to speak but because he did not let anyone speak. Every time they uttered anything, Emmett stared at them perplexed as though thinking something against them. As though their thoughts contradicted him.
Over the end of the ride, when Emmett finally shut his mouth sitting his ass on the seat while scrolling through his phone, alpha Hawkins and Jasper shared a look of worry and helplessness. “Hawkins, your son did not change even a bit! Are you sure that you want him to be the alpha now only? Think wisely. His words don’t give me a positive vibe” Alpha had to nod in agreement over his thoughts.
The way Emmett already started dominating the two of them before becoming an alpha, he has started to show his dominance beforehand. He can feel him already behaving like an alpha.
They wondered what he would do after taking the oath.
“I can feel you Jasper, my son is the same old cruel Emmett who will not give another thought before killing anyone— but on a serious note, it is now time for him to take his position. We very well know what he is capable of, and if we delay his coronation then he'd anyway get the throne. So let's keep our thoughts aside and let the young leaders rule. I do get a positive feeling too!” That was the end of the discussion.
No sooner had they erected their backs, sighing conqueringly with tired yawn, they heard Emmett speak, “I don’t know what exactly you discussed over your link but I can assure you I will be the best alpha. I agree there is no way I am going to change. Regardless of that, I assure you I will bring about good changes in our pack which will only be for the betterment of our kind. Don’t be overwhelmed, I will not kill anyone unless I feel it is necessary to!” Alpha and his old beta felt proud of his words.
They cannot be any more grateful to him. Their chests swell up in pride listening to his heart winning words alas, little idea did they have that whatever the young going to be alpha assured them for— was all fake, and he did not mean any word he spoke!
The pack house was still running hastily with everyone moving here and there notwithstanding, it was not any more littered with stuff. Surprisingly, everything was done almost as perfectly as possible except for the flowering that was to be done outside the gate for the welcome of the Alpha’s son.
Roman happily adored the decoration feeling light headed. “I finally did it! You are great, Roman. You deserve to be the beta. Dad will surely be proud of you for doing the work within the limited time.” So ungrateful of him! He actually praised himself for the work that was done by Caroline .
The poor soul heard his muttering, still she did not counter him. If there had been anybody else in her spot then surely they would have demanded for the credit albeit, she did not even utter a word. Instead she went to complete final touch of her work that was left.
It was still a big question mark as in why was she doing it???
Her palms have reddened whilst handling the roses. The thorns pricked her skin and blood oozed out of it yet her hand did not stop working at all. She was on the last pillar, pinning the garlands of flowers when, “Hey Caroline, you can leave it. I will continue what's left. You must be tired. Please go back to your cabinet, I will see the remaining work.” Roman said as he approached her.
Caroline was about to say something when they heard hasty steps storming inside the hall.
“The alpha is here!!!!” and a servant came rushing inside thus increasing everyone’s anxiety, and interrupting their conversation in the manner.
Her dovy eyes came back to Roman's face and scanned his thankless expression as he quickly pushed her backward with his rough hands toward the corridor which led to the back door. “Come on move move Caroline, go back before they come. Be quick.”
Even though she felt bad about his gesture, she just smiled lightly and made her way to the corridor leading to the back door of the Pack house.
She was being rushed out before the Alpha’s arrival, why?
