CHAPTER 48

  Alpha Darrel pov

  I didn't know what came over me and why I was saying too many honest things. Edna looked shocked to hear what I said too.

  "I know we don't have a good relationship, but if you really want to divorce me, we can wait, it's still too early." I was shocked to hear what Edna said to me. Divorce?

  "What are you talking about? I never said I was going to divorce you." Edna looked embarrassed when she heard what I said. We were finally in the pack house. She couldn't say anything else to me. Maybe she thought I was planning on divorcing her because I have been treating her with too much care.

  We both headed into the house and the first person to sit was Luna Becky. I knew she was going to bug me and I'm still upset with her for sending Edna over even though it was for a good cause.

  "Did you get that for me?" She asked and walked closer to me. "Edna, please take this upstairs for me." I said to her and handed the bag to her. My mom looked upset when she sighted Edna.

  Edna walked away and it was just me and my mom,

  "Why did you do that mom? Did I tell you I needed help to get the contract done?" I asked her angrily as we both sat on the couch, my mom didn't look exactly happy to hear what I said to her.

  "I was only looking out for you, don't be an ingrate." She said and picked her glass of wine as usual. "How was it? Was it successful or not?" She asked. I know she would think it was because of her grateful move. I hate to say the truth right now.

  "Yes, it was." I replied to her and just as I imagined it was a bad idea to tell her the truth.

  "I told you sending her there was a good idea, they are business partners with her dad and he already told them a lot about her from my research. "He forgot to tell them she's now married." I said angrily.

  "Was he hitting on her?" Luna Becky asked curiously. If I told her the truth she would be excited so I decided not to tell her the truth.

  "I need to go wash up mom, I had a stressful day at work. I will have dinner faster than the normal time." I said to her and headed upstairs. The moment I got to the room I sighted Edna sitting on the bed with her bags on the bed.

  She didn't say anything to me, I guess we are back to the No speaking era. I walked into the bathroom and took my bath. I really needed to calm my head because I was busy all day.

  The moment I turned on the shower I closed my eyes and let the water calm me down very well. With my eyes closed I recollected the moment Edna walked into my office, she looked so beautiful, that moment I felt like a proud husband.

  I opened my eyes and let out a soft smile. Maybe I should just stop being hard on myself and just allow myself go with the flow.

  I felt like I have been caging my heart all along just so that I don't let it show that I still have feelings for Edna, it was affecting me badly.

  When I was done bathing I walked out of the bathroom and mistakenly bumped into Edna, her hands were on my chest and I grabbed her waist. The tension between both of us arouse, I couldn't control myself anymore. My heartbeat because faster than normal as we looked at each other in the eyes.

  I lowered my head a little and locked lips with her. I wax thinking she will oppose it but surprisingly she submitted to it and we kissed passionately until a knock on the door ruined the moment.

  Edna rushed into the bathroom and i stood on the same spot hating on the person that knocked on the door. I heard the knock again and angrily went to open the door.

  "Alpha Darrel dinner is ready." Lilian said to me with a smile. I couldn't smile back because she just ruined a beautiful moment for me.

  I shut the door angrily without replying to her, and headed to the closet to dress up. I had to leave the room because that is the only way Edna would step out of the bathroom after the loss we both shared.

  After dressing up I stepped out of the room and headed downstairs for dinner. When I got to the dining room I sat down and shortly after my mother joined.

  "Why are you glowing tonight? Is this the result of a good contract?" My mother asked. Little does she know that the reason I was smiling so bright is because I shared a kiss with my wife.

  It's been a while since some time so little as a kiss made me so happy, I can't believe I was happy because of a kiss.

  "You aren't saying anything so I'll take that as a yes." She said to me and started eating. "Where is that thing that forced her way into this family?" I was trying to stop taunting Edna and just be a husband ti her since I could no longer fight my feelings for her, the way my mothers talks about her was beginning to piss me off and I might end up losing it one day.

  "Mom, she's my wife and also a princess, don't let people hear you talking about her like that, it's not a good sight." I said to my mother trying not to make it look like I was supporting Edna because it will only make her more upset.

  "Whatever, here she comes." My mother said, sounding annoyed. She just couldn't swallow her anger. She has hated Edna for a long time and I don't think she's ever going to stop hating her.

  "Mom." I called her trying to tell her to stop. Edna got to the dining and sat down, she was obviously avoiding eye contact with me after what happened upstairs just now.

  "Good evening mom." Edna greeted my mother and started eating, but my mom didn't reply to her as usual. While we were eating there was a perfect decorum in the dining room. Edna didn't say anything and I didn't say anything either. We kept mite until we were done eating. I picked my phone and headed back to the room.

  I can't believe we will be spending the night on the same bed. I sat on the couch and almost immediately Edna walked into the room.

  We still didn't say anything to each other, Edna sat on the bed and continued pressing her phone, I turned to look at her and she looked really serious with her phone.

  I stood up from the couch and walked into the toilet. I looked at my face in the mirror. She's my wife, why should I avoid her after kissing her when we are legally together. It was beginning to look childish the way we were behaving just because we shared a kiss.

  I washed my face and walked out of the toilet. I forgot my phone in the toilet so I had to go back and pick it up. The moment I got back to the room Edna was no longer there. Where did she go? She was here just now.

  I checked around the room she was no where I was about to walk into the second toilet when I heard the flushed sound. She walked out of the toilet and went back to the bed where she was seating.

  "Are we going to keep living like this?" I asked her and she paused walking immediately. It was getting annoying, how do we live like strangers all because we shared a kiss, when we are married. Edna turned to look at me, I could tell she was already tired of living like this as well.

  "We can be friends, we don't have to be in love to be friends." I proposed, Edna looked shocked to hear my proposal.

  While I was waiting to hear what she had to say, she started crying. I was shocked to see her cry.

  "I'm sorry if I said something to upset you." I said to her trying to calm her down. Though I can't remember saying anything that'll make her cry, I had to apologize just in case because she was seriously crying.

  "Why are you crying?" I asked her, she raised her head to look at me while trying to stop herself from crying.

  "Just got a message from home, grandma passed away." Edna said to me. I was relieved she wasn't crying because of me, it is sad news because I'm sure grandma treated her right.

  Edna cried so much that I couldn't help her stop. She kept receiving phone calls all night and I was unable to sleep because I was worried about her.

  "I have to go home," She said to me. I sat up the moment I heard what she said. "What are you saying?" I asked her angrily.
