Chapter 0009
“She’s a liar and a troublemaker. Throw her out immediately,” he calls to nearby staff members. They nod and begin to walk at me, hands outstretched and ready to grab me.
I look between him and Lily. I nod and let out a breathy chuckle. Ah…so he must be Lily’s fiancé…the Alpha King, Sebastian. How fitting.
“Dear Healer M,” I begin. The employees stop in their tracks once I speak. “My pack and I are in desperate need of your help. Our medicine is failing, and we don’t know what to do. We need your talent and skill in medicine to help us. We can offer you a hefty commission. Five million dollars in exchange for your help. Please. We need
“Y–you’re Healer M?” Lily stammers. I feign a hurt expression, placing my hands over my heart.
“I came like you asked, dear sister. I wanted to help…but with an attitude like that, I suppose I’ll leave instead,” I sigh heavily, matching her dramatics. I go to walk past them, but Lily stops me.
Lily turns to Sebastian and puts on a fake smile on her face. She turns back to me, pulling me into a hug. Her fingernails dig into my skin, and I have to push her off of me before she draws blood.
“Miranda! You just have no idea how much I’ve missed you! I’ve been worried sick about you all these years! Seeing you here makes me so happy!” She exclaims.
Her demeanor has completely changed. Instead of looking like she wants to skin me alive, Lily looks like she wants to offer me a feast in honor of my return.
“If I were dead….you’d be even happier than you are now.” Ishoot her a scornful look. She flinches, her eyes flickering to Sebastian before they land on me again. I hide a smirk from them. “My price has doubled.”
“You’re robbing me!” Lily shrieks. She turns to Sebastian for help. His eyes have never left me. Curious.
“Fine. Your new price is approved.” Sebastian’s sends chills down my spine. How could he agree so easily? “It seems like you’re nothing more than a greedy opportunist
“And you, Alpha King? With Lily, of all people?” I smirk and chuckle, “One would think your judgment is impaired ”
I walk towards the office door. Before I step through, I turn to look at Lily and sarcastically say, “Thank you.”
Sebastian’s angry gaze burns into mine when our eyes meet I nod my head at him, the smirk remaining on my face, as I can feel the heat from his anger linger on my body
The air outside the building cools me down, but the weight feel in my chest remains. I rub at the tension, unable to get it to go away. I sigh as I reach the other side of the road.
My head lifts, and I’m greeted by the sight of my two beautiful children. They smile and run towards me. I kneel, arms wide, and engulf them in my arms, squeezing them.
The tension in my chest disappears as they welcome me, their giggles and smiles taking away all of the angst I feel in my body. I pull away from them ever so slightly and smile, pushing the hair out of their faces.
“How are my babies doing? Did you have fun with Anna?” Task. They nod in excitement. Their moods are Infectious, and I can feel the anger and irritation leave my body.
“Mommy? Can I tell you something?” Noah asks. I turn to him and nod. Ella peels away from me, going back to
Anna
“What i
“What is it, my love?” I ask, holding onto him. He looks around and leans in to whisper in my ear.
