Chapter 84 KAIDEN STIRLING I smiled for the umpteenth time as I thought of Freda’s words. ‘He’s just a friend’. I laughed as I swirled in my chair. Fredal hadn’t hooked up with anyone since she rejected me. But the fact that she wasn’t interested in the man didn’t mean he wasn’t interested in her. I saw the way he looked at her. That wasn’t the way a friend looked at another friend. I clenched my jaw as my mood immediately soured. Coming to a decision, I called one of my guards over. “Keep a close eye on Freda and her…new friend. I want you to report every single thing to me, and make sure you do it discreetly. They mustn’t be aware. Understood?” “Yes, Alpha” he stated and bowed and left. It was clear that new friend of hers couldn’t be trusted. I would never be at ease with the thought that he stayed in the same place as Freda. I I pushed the unpleasant thoughts behind me as I was beginning to seeth in anger and…..jealousy. I remembered the way Freda smiled brightly at him. She never smiled that way when she was with me. But then I’d never really given her a reason to smile. I ignored my thoughts as I tried to focus on work, but I couldn’t… concentrate. I finally gave up on working and I checked the time. Working hours were over. I sighed and grabbed my bag and headed home to face the biggest mistake of my life. 0.00% I walked into the house and Harper rushed to meet me. She had probably been waiting at the door. I laughed at the thought. She was the only reason i didn’t loathe coming home after work so much.. “Daddy you’re back” she gushed out excitedly as she hugged. me. “Yes, sweetheart, you’re daddy is back”. I crouched down to her eye level and rubbed her hair affectionately and she smiled so brightly. “How was your day?” I asked as I carried her into the house. “It was great, I did a lot of things”. I smiled as I dropped her on the couch close to her toys she had sprawled all over the floor. NôvelDrama.Org owns all content.
“That’s good” I replied heartily and I glanced at Safiya who was seating opposite Harper with a blank expression on her face. She didn’t even offer any greetings to her husband who was home after a long day. Not like I expected her to anyway, I didn’t regard her either. Two people could play this game. “Sweetheart, daddy needs to shower, when I’m done we would catch up about all you’ve done today. Okay?” “Okay daddy” she replied smiling. If she noticed the strange relationship between myself and Safiya she didn’t mention it. She was also angry with her mother. I sighed deeply and headed towards the direction of my room. Just as I turned, Safiya stopped me. “Kaiden we need to talk”. I sighed in frustration. I turned around. “What?” I spat harshly. Safiya looked a bit pale and she had lost weight a little but I couldn’t care less. I already knew what was bothering her and I wasn’t about to find a 1924.79% souson for it. Just as I thought her next words confirmed it. am not apoloosing to Freda’ she stated with such confidence Talmost laughed. I glanced at Harper hoping st wasn’t going to witness another argument between her parents but she was too focused in her dolls to care Good Okay you shoveled as looked at Safiya with a bored epressor Kelly Youre going to support me?” She asked happy as her shoulders relaxed a little. I nodded. “Just get ready to get arrested by the pack police, just know I’m not going to meddle with it. Color drained from her face once again. If she thought I was going to support her,then she was so She had gone too far, she had hurt all of us. I could have even overlooked what she did to me when she went around spreading rumors that I was a woman beater, but she had to drag Freda into it and make her kneel in front of the pack council for a crime she didn’t commit just because of her jealousy So someone call me a devil for deciding not to support my wife who was bent on making my life hell. She had crossed her limits this time, she should be ready to face the consequences. I turned to head to my room when Safiya screamed out gaining the attention of Harper. I glared at
her. “Control yourself woman, unless you want to sleep outside for the night” I warned in my Alpha tone. I was fed up of her tantrums. All I wanted was a home I could come back to in peace. “Oh, so you’re going to throw me out because of Freda? You’re going to take Freda’s side instead of your wife who is pregnant? 1 m How many of you!” She scoffed and I groaned as I rubbed my temples in frustration. If she thought she was going to blackmail me with my child then she was clearly fighting a lost cause, Just as I was about to speak she cut me off. “You know” she drawled out as she picked at imaginary dirt in her fingers. “Rumors have been flying around that Freda brought a man home. I even saw them together earlier today. They looked soo good together. She stated. “I wonder what people would say about her rejecting her mate and going for another man. But again, it’s not like you did any better either. I clenched my jaw. I knew this game she was playing. She wanted to rille me up so I would turn against Freda and come to her side. She wanted to hurt me by saying it. But I wasn’t going to stoop to her level I smirked and turned towards her as I looked directly into her eyes. “You would have to try harder”, Safiya I drawled. “Because I know more about that man than you do”.
