Chapter 33
Chapter 33:
“Why don’t you think this through again? I really think this could be a bad idea and put us in an uncomfortable position in the future,” I said, looking puzzled.
“They’re now business partners with Christian and are also major shareholders, as you heard. Even if you get Christian, you might not get his full attention or love. He’ll always see that cursed girl every day, and you will end up with no place in his heart.”
“Have you thought about that? And have you considered that you’ll always be beneath that cursed girl? As it stands, Mr. Mico is supporting us, and they are in a position of power. You might end up taking from them instead of giving to them,” I said.
“What do we do then? Should we just get her out of the picture like we did five years ago?” she asked cautiously.
“We’ll have to think about it, but whatever the plan is, we need to be careful. We can’t afford to lose everything we’ve worked for,” I said.
“Alright, Mom,” she said, walking away but suddenly stopping as though she remembered something.
“I think we should do something about Adrian,” she added.
“What did he do?” I asked, curious.
“I think he tried to…”
“Let’s talk about this another time,” I interrupted. “I’m really exhausted, and I need a good rest. Another day would be best for this discussion.” I dismissed her.
I wasn’t in the best mood tonight. I appreciated that Mr. Mico offered to help, but he had to bring that cursed girl into his pack. Now, she’s slowly trying to find her way into my son’s life, just like she did in the past. I will do whatever it takes to stop her from being with my son or marrying Mr. Mico’s son. She will never be Luna, not under my watch.
Christian’s POV

“My son Tristan would be getting married to Emily right here…” Mr. Mico said, causing me to widen my eyes in surprise, though he was smiling about his so-called news.
I never saw this coming. Accepting to save my company from ruin is good news, but it would cost me my own mate. How is that even a good thing? Amira belongs to my pack, and she is my mate. Why would anyone take that privilege from me? Mr. Mico is like a father to me, but what do I do about this? I still love Amira, and every fiber of my being longs for her. My body aches for her, and my heart won’t stop yearning for her love. But after suffering for five years, the next piece of news I receive is about marriage? I can’t accept this. I would rather refuse the offer and take her back than accept it and lose her to another man.
“But…”
“That’s good news! I’m so happy for you both, and I can’t wait to see you two married. I can already picture how beautiful your children would be,” Sheela said, interrupting me.
“I’m so happy for you, Mr. Mico. You got your son a beautiful woman to marry.”
“I should have done this earlier, but then again, it’s better late than never…” my mom said, maintaining her smile.
“This is Sheela, my son’s future mate,” Mr. Mico introduced. “He is a family friend and like a father to Christian.”
“Are you?” Emily said with a tone of mockery.
