Ran Away Pregnant Came Back Alpha Heiress Novel

Chapter 213 +25 Bonus Chapter 213 SIX YEARS LATER... Amelia's POV Mom knocked on my bedroom door just as I was finishing up putting my makeup on. She smiled at me with a motherly fondness, but there was a tightness in her eyes today that was usually absent. Everyone wanted today to go well. "He's here," she said. "Are you almost ready?" "Almost," I said, as I took one last look in the mirror. In the past six years, since an attack on me had rendered me with amnesia, my physical appearance had been slowly changing.

My hair was getting lighter, like Lillian's, and my eyes were more blue than brown now. I'd been told the changes were normal after the manifestation of my wolf, which apparently had only happened during my attack. I couldn't remember, and I still hadn't met my wolf. Perhaps she had only appeared to save my life and then was gone again, but I didn't even really feel her inside of me anymore. It was almost as if she was hiding from me. But then, maybe I was being needlessly paranoid. It was just, sometimes, things would happen that wouldn't add up quite right.

Sometimes Jake or my parents would say things that didn't feel like they were entirely correct, but without my memory I couldn't counter it with any kind of real evidence. It was just a feeling. Like now, with my wolf. I had a feeling she was hiding from me, but saying that aloud made me feel foolish, so I kept it to myself. "You look beautiful," Mom said, smiling at me from the doorway to my bathroom, where I was just setting down my mascara. "I'm sure Ian will be very impressed." Ian was a high-ranking werewolf from another pack.

Jake had been trying to set us up for months, firmly believing that we might be fated mates. Mom and Dad knew him too, and said as much. I'd avoided a blind date for months, but with the added pressure from Mom and Dad, I knew I couldn't avoid it forever. Today was the day. I still didn't know what I had done to displease my family in the past, that had led to our separation and my removal from all the pictures and mementos. In the past six years, my family had made major steps to fix everything, taking new pictures that included me, and making sure we created a lot of new memories together.

It was great. The past six years had been wonderful. But... Maybe I was ungrateful, but I still felt like something was missing. And it wasn't just my wolf. For now though, as I did every other time those kinds of invasive thoughts entered my mind, I pushed them away to focus on the here and now. At this particular moment, that meant doing my best to make a good impression with Ian. I desperately want to please my family, who have so many hopes riding on this. 1/2 +25 Bonus "Thanks, Mom," I said, and stepped out of the room with her.

Together, we walked out of the room and then down the stairs. There was a man standing with Jake and Dad in the foyer. He looked decent in a dark suit, his hair short and his face recently shaved. He saw me before my brother and father did, his brown eyes finding me down the hallway as I moved closer with Mom at my side. He gasped lightly, his eyes going a little round. I held my own breath, waiting for the flex of feeling I had been told would indicate a fated connection. I wasn't unaffected exactly. Ian was a handsome man, and when he smiled at me, I found myself smiling back.

But would I say meeting him moved the heavens and earth? No. I couldn't even pretend that was the case. Short of the thrill of making eye contact with a handsome man, which I had done and felt before, I did not feel anything particularly groundbreaking at this meeting. Perhaps we needed to touch for the spark to ignite? "Annette, there you are," Jake said and waved me forward. I moved to him. "Meet Ian." Comments Support Share 2/2 Chores 214 +25 Bonus Joseph King
