Chapter 88 Get the hell out of here ! I commanded her .
Damn it .
How did things get this messy ? A naked , showering Beverly is not what I expected to see .
O okay .
Hold on … I could hear the worry in her voice .
I mustve looked like a man possessed .
When her eyes flickered in fear , something tightened in my chest .
Damn it .
She brushed her nose in a calming gesture , one that reminded me of only one person .
} ] Chesca , my late wife .
Beverly looked so much like her .
Maybe she had something done to her face , or maybe she just naturally resembled her .
Even the habits were the same .
It was disturbing but I crave for it , reason why I made her my gamma .
Shes soft and acting fine before when she came back from London but now … I can see changes in her .
Or maybe Im too stressed these past few days , shes taking the fallout ? I took a deep breath .
I had braced myself for Hestia , after all the chaos she put me through .
But instead , I got Beverly .
And now , without patience to spare , guilt gnawed at me .
Because the fear I saw on Beverlys face reminded me too much of Chesca .
If only shes here .
If only shes alive ….
} I sighed .
Leave this room , I said as calmly as I could , looking away.

But all the rooms arent prepared yet .
Then sleep with Lorde .
Hed be happy to have you .
} But- No buts , Beverly , I said firmly , repeating her name to remind myself who she was .
You know why Im letting this go , dont you ? But youre not her .
} Moments later , I heard the door shut .
I walked straight into a cold shower to calm down .
There were too many things weighing on me today , but Hestia topped the list .
That damn woman .
How is it that I can reject every woman who throws herself at me , yet my own wife is the one who gives me the biggest headache ?! I lay on the bed , trying to get a hold of myself .
There was nothing I could do now but wait .
If she came back soon , Id mock her for failing to scare me .
If she took a week , Id throw it in her face .
She could not survive without me and our son .
At some point , I drifted off .
I didnt realize it until a loud clap of thunder and a banging on my door pulled me back to consciousness .
I rushed to the door and saw the maid standing there .
} Alpha , Sir Lorde is at it again .
I dont think Miss Rhode can handle him .
} I ran to my sons room .
The floor was a mess , but what set me off was the sight of him pinned on the bed like a wild animal , with Beverly trying to restrain him .
Shut up .
I am not your enemy , damn it ! she cried .
} What the hell are you doing to my son ? I bellowed .
I pulled her off him and immediately checked on Lorde .

} No ! Dont touch me ! Ill kill you ! Dont lay a finger on me ! he screamed , crying hysterically .
Its Daddy , son .
No one will hurt you , I said , my voice cracking .
Calm down , please .
His face was twisted in pain , terror , and rage .
He shook his head again and again , pushing me away , refusing to recognize me .
Mommy .
Please .
Save me , Mommy , he sobbed and gasped for breath .
My chest ached .
My eyes stung .
He was breaking down .
I didnt know why he was like that , Lucian .
He screamed , then attacked me .
I was trying to calm him- By pinning him like hes some wild beast ? I snapped , furious .
Then I turned to my son , wiping the sweat from his forehead .
Shh , Lucian .
Daddys here .
Ill protect you , just like Mommy used to .
} I stayed with him for hours until he finally settled .
He begged me not to leave , so I slept beside him .
I couldnt wake up the next morning .
My body was too tired , too drained .
I wanted to stay asleep forever .
But I was shaken awake .

} Daddy ! he said , tapping my shoulder .
Lorde , ask your aunt to make you breakfast .
Im still sleepy , I muttered , weak .
Shes not here .
And why should I ask her ? he snapped .
You promised me last night .
You said Mommy would be here when I woke up .
Where is she , huh ? Did you lie ? I sat up , startled .
I never promised that .
How could I promise something I wasnt sure of ? } I held my head and looked at his small frame .
You know your Mommys acting like a child , right ? But shell come back soon , son , I said , getting out of bed .
Yeah? Is that why shes with someone else now ? { He tossed a tablet at me .
I caught it just in time .
I looked at the screen , and all the blood drained from my face .
] There .
Is she really planning to leave us ? Why is she with a man who already has a kid ? Maybe shes building a new family .
He pointed at the child in the photo .
I shook my head .
This wasnt real .
Hestia wouldnt do this .

This had to be another one of her tricks to get me on my knees .
It had to be .
Otherwise , I swear , Id tear that man apart right in front of her for stealing her from us .
