Two days later…

I was issued a notice that my car had stayed too long across the road and need to be moved.

I didn’t know where else I could pack my car which was already faulty and could function without thorough fixing. This morning I went to work and came back with my son only to find out that my car was nowhere to be found.

Later on I received a message from the inspection office that it was parked at a less busy area and I should make plans of taking it out from the spot they had kept it to a better place or else it would be crushed.

That was the law. Any car that was wrongly packed after a first warning would be crushed and the owner would pay a fine too.

Now, my car which also served as my house was moved to Kleine street. Tear began to drop from my eyes. This was not the life I wanted for me and my son and as much as I try to make a living as a rogue, it wasn’t working.

Walking along the road innyear, a black Lamborghini drive slowly by my side and I hoped it was not someone who would still my child away from me.

Down here in the Surb where Rogues live it is very common for Children to be snatched from their mothers all in the name of giving them a better life.

I cursed the stupid rules that are placed on Rogues. We look like non living beings to other wolves who belong to packs.

“Hello ma’am.” The voice from the car said. It was Philip. How do I always have to cross his path?

“Hello Philip.”

“I’m sorry I didn’t get your name, that’s why I called you ma’am.” He said still driving slowly according to my pace.

“I’m Ember.” I lied. I decided to change my name to the nice name my mom gave to me while I was a baby. She said it was because of my eye color.

“Ember! Nice babe where are you headed, I could drop you off.”

This was the time to tell the truth, this was my chance of meeting Logan and letting him know about his son.

“I don’t have a place to stay.” I said, my face looking at the ground.

“Ohh, I thought you lived somewhere at the neighborhood I dropped you?”

“ No, I lived in my car.” I said as I began crying.

He stopped the car and walked to where I was standing.

“Don’t worry, you can come with me to my home. I’m sure you’ll like it there.” He offered.

This was not the time to say No, so i nodded and he opened the door of the car for me to get him trying to make sure Lucian doesn’t bruise himself.

What a gentleman I thought to myself.

This car was different from the one one he drove the other day. So he wasn’t just a beta but also a rich man?

“Thank you.” I said.

“No need to thank me Ember. Tell me something where are you from?” He asked.

I froze after the question. Could it be he knows me or maybe my father?

“I’m a rogue.” I replied.

“I know you’re a rogue but your Aura is strong.” He said.

“Well, I don’t know about that.” I answered and faced the window.

Back at home, I was also told about how strong my Aura was that I hoped my wolf would be big enough to match my Aura.

Destined to be an Alpha even though things went the wrong lane, I was still grateful my Aura was there. There’s really nothing I can do to stop people from noticing it can I??

“We are here.”

Right in front of me is a mansion so big that it could be mistaken for a five star hotel but yet it belonged to one single man.

“It’s so big.” I said in amazement.

“Yes it is. Don’t just admire the outside, come in.” He said and made to carry Lucian who was also staring at the house and sucking his thumb.

“You’re a very strong boy with an Alpha aura.” Philip said. I couldn’t say a thing but smiled. He sure has the Aura just like his dad.

We got into the house and Philip made it his duty to show me around the house. I was so glad when I was shown the library.

I remembered when I and my little sis would sneak to the library when dad and mom were asleep to read some romance novels.

I missed home.

“Have a seat Ember, let me make something for you to eat.” He said while handing Lucian back to me.

Maybe this was the beginning of good things for me, I said to myself.

Philip brought a bottle of milk for Lucian and a plate of spaghetti and meatballs for me.

It has been long I ate such meal so I tried as much as I could to eat slowly so I don’t embarrass myself.

Few minutes into eating, I heard a voice calling for Philip and not long I saw who it was.

Right in front of me was the father of my child and beside him was a lady who had used a lot of makeup to decorate herself.

“Babe, I can’t wait to have you.” Were his words to her.

And my breathing stopped. Just few weeks, I got to gather the fact that he was my mate but here he was with another lady.

I thought of leaving with my son. Logan looked like was better off without us.
