Chapter 0029 I went into the house with the full intention of getting a piece of cake for Aria .
I could tell from her tone that she was annoyed with me and that Id done little to rectify the situation .
Id thought the topic of her having a child might help resolve things , but itd only seemed to push her away from me even further .
A piece of cake wouldnt solve everything , but as a gesture , it couldnt hurt .
She could hopefully see that I was at least making an attempt .
That had to be worth something While I wasnt thrilled to leave her out there alone , in that dress , at least she had my suit coat draped over her shoulders .
With that , she should be covered with enough of my scent to keep other alphas away .
Except perhaps Jasper , who seemed too curious for his own good .
Aria was still my wife .
Until that changed , Jasper should know well enough to stay away .
Perhaps I would have to have a conversation with him about propriety towards his Luna .
As I stood in line for the cake , I seethed .
Every moment away from Aria felt like a missed opportunity .
I should have been using this time to convince her to come back to the home that we had shared the home that was now worse off without her .
Before I could reach the front of the line , my Beta Ben appeared and rushed to my side .
There you are , Alpha .
Ive finally reached our contact at the hospital .
He confirmed that Dr.
A is still in her office , where shes been all evening .
She cant be Aria .
No , she cant , I repeated .
That had to be the truth .

Aria and Dr.
A couldnt be in two places at the same time if they were the same person .
Yet this reality check had me reeling.
I had been so sure .
There were so many similarities between the two .
Even Max felt confused , pacing with agitation inside of my mind .
You are certain ? I asked .
Our contact is taking a photograph , Ben said .
But it will take time to get it over here .
I had no reason to doubt Ben or our contact at the hospital .
Both were sources that I trusted .
Yet … I need that photograph , I said .
Ill have him rush it , Ben said and scurried away .
Finally , I reached the front of the line .
As Arias piece of cake was finally being cut and placed on a plate , one of the nearby phones rang .
My mom , exasperated , yelled , Someone get that .
Ben , who had been on his way to the phone anyway , dutifully picked it up .
Arlas piece of cake in hand , I started to turn back toward the doors to the pool .
Alpha ! Ben called before I could take more than two steps .
I looked back at him , over my shoulder .
Its for you .
Its Sheila .
Immediately my heart sunk .
I had more important matters than dealing with Sheila tonight .
This might have been my last chance to woo Aria again and convince her to give up the divorce .
Id done a poor job of it so far .
I needed more time , more chances .
I was sure I could convince her i just Shes threatening to kill herself , Ben said , frowning .
1/2 +25 BONUS A few people nearby turned to look .
Likely , this was all a ruse by Sheila .
She hadnt wanted me to come out tonight , didnt want me to reconcile withi Aria .
But a suicide threat wasnt something I could simply ignore , especially if it turned out to be true .
I already had so much guilt over Sheila , If I failed her in this as well … I gave Arias cake to someone else in line , and then told Ben , Ill take it in the office .
Dont hang up hear me pick up .
