Chapter 308
Alpha 309
My mind seemed to be going back to a flashback.
I did not know what to feel right now. I really thought a lot before buying that bouquet. I wanted to say sorry for what I did to her years ago when she gave me my favorite flower as her first present.
I did not expect her to do the same to me.
It broke my heart.
However, more than me, I felt bad for her. She might have felt like this.
“Dad!”
I heard Aria’s voice. My gaze shifted from Natalia to my daughter, who was sprinting towards
1. me.
I tried to compose myself, not wanting to show my pain to anyone.
As I knelt down, I picked up Aria and held her in my arms. She kissed my cheek and hugged my neck.
I saw my son walking slowly toward me. I gave him a nod, which he acknowledged quietly
He was a very strong boy with a sharp mind. He would be a great Alpha in the future and rule my packs smoothly.
I was making him with my own hands.
Natalia turned to the receptionist, who was talking with other customers.
“We are waiting. Where is your waiter?”
The receptionist stood up again and said,
“I apologize. You both were talking to each other, so I told the waiter to wait. Here he is.”
I turned to the waiter, who was standing on the opposite side of the desk. He hurried toward us and gestured in our direction.
We started to walk as he led us the way.
“Dad, mommy chose the restaurant for us. Isn’t it a beautiful place?” Aria asked.
“Yes, princess.”
I glanced at Natalia, who was a few steps ahead of me, walking while holding Noah’s hand.
I ignored the pain in my heart and followed her steps. We sat at our table and ordered what
Aria and Noah wanted to eat.
I moved the menu toward Natalia. “Order something you like.”
She glanced around while muttering,
“You can order yours. I will order later.”
I was confused about why she was looking here and there. It was as though she was trying to find someone here.
I did not order as I stared at her, waiting for her to order first.
At that time, a voice came from behind, which caught my attention.
“Hi, there, baby.”
I turned my head and saw Max.
He made his way toward Natalia. She stood up and they hugged each other.
My wolf growled inside me as my eyes turned dark from the closeness between the two of them.
When they broke the hug, my eyes shifted to Max’s hand, which was grabbing Natalia’s waist. My hands tightened as I tried too hard to control myself.
At first, this man called her baby, and now he was hugging and touching her in front of me. It was just because of her happiness that I let this man roam around my pack peacefully. Otherwise, I would not give a damn about his healing powers.
Max turned to my children and smiled at them.
“Hi. How are you?”
Despite the fact that it was abundantly clear to me that my children were not pleased to see him, they made a courteous gesture by greeting him and responding to the question that he asked them. 1
When Max finally turned his attention to me, he gave me a slight nod and said,
“Alpha Adrian, it’s been a long time.”
I stared at him without replying. I did not notice the atmosphere being heated by my piercing gaze at him.
All these months, I gave myself time to feel remorse. I was filled with regret. It was enough to make me feel like staying away from my mate.
However, my wolf did not agree with it. He wanted to be with his
lose in front of my rival in love
“You are right. It’s really been a long time,” I replied.
Max took a seat next to Natalia as he said,
“Natalia told me that you were coming here too.”
I shifted my gaze to Natalia, who looked calm. Her eyes were on the menu card.
I realized all these times that she was waiting for Max. His presence among us was something that had been planned in advance.
“I see,” I muttered in response to Max. noveldrama
“By the way, I want to thank you for taking care of Natalia that night. She was really sick that night.”
I understood that she had not told him about healing her wound.
“Just not her health, but I took care of her deadly wound as well,” I said to him.
“Wound? What wound? Was she injured somewhere?” Max asked with a confused face.
I moved my gaze toward Natalia. She immediately looked at me with wide eyes.
I realized she had not allowed him to touch her body. That was why he was unaware of her wound.
A smirk appeared on my lips when I looked at Max and replied,
“Of course. She had a wound very close to her heart. It took me a long time and a lot of strength to heal it.”
