BROKEN PROMISES (PART TWO)
1048 Words
“What is it supposed to be, Lake? You weren’t bothered to invite me to the wedding even if I wouldn’t come. No sign of care and feelings from you. I felt bad and horrible. You threw me out like some trash. Then I woke up the next morning and saw a strange lady in the kitchen, right? What does that show me? That you don’t give a f**k. You are the leader of the pack, a celebrity, so you don’t have to listen to me.”
“Aurora.’
“Please leave me alone.’ I ordered and sat down on my bed. “I want to be alone.’
“Stop bringing up unnecessary things.’
“It is unnecessary to me. You got married, go face your new wife.’
“Hey, stop.’
“I’m not stopping, Lake.’
“Why are you this stubborn?’
“I’m not stubborn, Lake. You are the one that is stubborn and so thick-skinned. Not me.’
“I’m sorry to interrupt your conversations, Lake.” She came forward. “Aurora, I’m sorry for coming in like that, and I know you don’t know about me. But please Aurora, don’t blame your uncle for…”
“Who are you to come in between me and Lake, you…”
“Aurora.’ Lake scolded me.
“No, stay out of my matter…”
“Do not talk to my mom like that.’ a girl came out of nowhere and stood in front of Lake’s wife. “I don’t care who you are, but don’t speak to my mom like that.”
“What! Who the hell are you?’
“Aurora.’
I ignored Lake and stood my ground. “Get the f**k out of my room. I don’t know who you are, but don’t come into my home to lecture me.’ I pushed her forcefully to the floor in anger.
She gritted her teeth and almost slapped me, but Lake became the one who got slapped instead as he blocked my path from me getting slapped by her.
The stupid b***h gasped in horror.
“I’m…I’m so sorry, Alpha Lake.’
“Why the hell did you do that, Sandra?’
“Leave this room, Sandra. Now.’ Lake ordered as her eyes welled up in tears and ran out of my room.
“This isn’t how it is done and…”
“Hold on.’ Lake interrupted her. “Let’s leave here.’ he walked out on me with his wife walking after him.
I felt so awful, I didn’t know what to do next.
How could he walk out on me like that, not saying anything to me? Does he think keeping silent about this issue was going to work?
Two weeks have passed, and I have continued avoiding Lake like a plague. Though it hurts my heart to do this to him but I was hurt.
What he did was unforgivable. Other than that, I still love him with all my heart. Maybe he had no choice but to get married to that b***h.
They must have pressured him to be with her by the clan.
And for the good of the people, he had to do what was right.
Yeah and I think so. I shouldn’t blame him because he did the right thing.
To be honest, I was lonely. I have never felt this way in my entire life.
We’ve never quarrelled to this extent of being far apart. It has never happened before.
I think I should reconcile with him and hear him out.
Then, I would know what to say to him and find out the reason he got married to that nasty b***h.
She seems too full of herself and I don’t like her one bit.
I walked downstairs to see if Lake was around and was back from his work.
I saw a figure sitting down with an enormous bottle of champagne in his left hand with his arm resting on his raised up knee while his back was against the wall.
I walked over to the figure and realised it was Lake.
He seemed drunk and passed out for a moment there.
“Lake.’ I called him and moved over to him. I squatted beside him and tapped his shoulder to wake him up.
He reeked of champagne. Or was it alcohol?
“Lake,’ I shook him up. “Get up, you are going to catch a cold. Your back is going to hurt. Will you get up?’ I tried waking him up for a few seconds before he opened his eyes and stared at me.
“Aurora.’ he whispered and sat up properly as he dropped the champagne on the floor. “Are you the one?’ he asked and his eyes felt dizzy.
“Yes, it’s me, Lake. Are you alright?’
He shifted closer to me and cupped my face with both hands.
“Hey, Lake, are you still drunk?” I chuckled at his funny posture and his expression looked so young. It was like he was in his early twenties and breathtaking as well.
“Yes, my love.” He rested his forehead on mine as he kissed my nose. “I want you so much.’ his hands were slowly rubbing my cheeks. “I want you so badly. I want to be inside you and take care of you. I want you to be my Luna. I want you to be my lover.’
“Lake.’ I whispered.
What was he saying to me?
He wants me to be his lover?
“I want to rip off your clothes and take you to my bed. I want to mark you and claim you as mine. I want to announce to the world that you are my Luna. I want to impregnate you to have my child. Do you know what I want to do so much with you? I want to sleep with you. I’ve been waiting for years to get you into my bed. Do you have any idea how long I have waited for this? Aurora, please stop being angry with me. I didn’t intend to get married to her.” He dropped his hands on his folded legs and looked at me for a second before resting his forehead on mine again.
“Lake, what is going on?’
