Taking Alpha's Twins Away After Divorce by AlisTae

Chapter 48 The living room descended into an enveloping silence, the atmosphere dense with words that were not uttered and conflicts that had not been resolved.

'Didn't Delta Julian tellthat Adrian did not cto the pack house often? Then why is he here? I thought. After what seemed like an eternity, Auntie Grace's voice broke the silence.

"Adrian." Adrian moved up to the couches and sat down on one of them.

My attempt was to ignore him. During the tthat I was listening to their conversation, I looked down at my lap.

"Did you chere to check on me? Because you don't usually cto the pack house. The only twe get to see your face is when there is a pack meeting that takes place in the pack house for any reasor "What do you mean? Would it be necessary forto have a purpose to cto my pack house? Doesn't the pack house serve as the residence of the leader of the pack?" Adrian asked with a bored tone.

I almost scoffed at him loudly, but I controlled myself. I did not understand why he was so arrogant! It did nothing but increase my hatred for him.

"Adrian, Natalia is kind enough to agree to help us in dealing with the illness of your father. We asked her to stay with us for a week," his mother spoke out, her words carefully chosen. "We appreciated her willingness to do so." +19 BONUS Adrian raised an eyebrow. "Stay here?" Now, I was absolutely convinced that he did not know anything about it. I decided that if he said anything to insultagain, I would return to the hotel room right now. "You did not even think to ask for my permission and let a member of another pack stay in this pack house?" Adrian asked his parents.

I got to my feet and said to his parents, "Uncle, Auntie, please forgive me. I can't stay here. Considering that the head Alpha does not wantto be here, then how can I stay?" I smiled at them, but in my head, I was cursing Adrian.

"You will not go anywhere. You will stay here with us. It's not just his pack house," his father said to me. He assumed that Adrian would not agree with it.

"We requested her to stay here with us, Adrian. Your father is sick. Don't argue with him," his mother told him with a cold tone.

I glanced at her. She looked like the old Luna that I used to see five years ago.

Adrian shook his head. "Stop behaving as if I care about her staying here. My question was simply about how you arrived at a choice without consulting me." Once they heard him his parents appeared to be at ease.

"She is my guest, one of my trusted people. My pack doesn't have any danger from her; that's why I didn't ask you about her stay." Uncle Lucas replied to Adrian.

+15 BONUS Auntie Grace stood up and held my hand. "Don't mind my son's nonsense. He is always like this. Who can know him better than you?" I glanced at Adrian. He was sitting on the couch like a king. His eyes were fixed on his father. But he was listening to us.

"You are right, Auntie. I know him really well." I uttered it with bitterness in my heart.

He sneered after hearing me. He turned his head to look at me.

"Yeah, I am also aware of how she is. I really wish I could tell you both about it. But one of you is on the edge of losing himself; he can't take the heartbroken," he muttered while losing his tie.

I was startled that he would tell them about my children. I did not want that. So, I attempted to escape from this situation.

"Uncle, Auntie, goodnight." Saying that, I walked to the staircase. As soon as I reached the upper floor, I made my way straight to my room. I assumed that after meeting with his parents, Adrian would go back to his own company's apartn As I entered my room, I let out a sigh and shut the door behind 1. me.

"Just one week," I told myself.

I went to sit on the bed and call my babies. The moment they received the video call, I waved at them.

Seeing them after the whole day, I felt emotional.

"My babies, what are you doing?" I asked them.

3/5 +15 BONUS They were not talking to me, which madeworried.

"What happened? Don't you want to talk to your mom?" Noah and Aria were both sitting on the bed. They looked upset. In response to my question, they shook their heads.

"Why?" "Mom, you lied to us. You said you would return tomorrow. But Grandpa has told us that you will cback after a week," Noah stated with a gloomy face.

"Noah, my baby. Don't get mad at Mommy. She tried to return, but something cup.

33 I shifted my attention to Aria, who was holding a doll. Her eyes were focused on the doll, tellingthat she did not want to see 1. me.

How could I tell them that I was with their father's parents? Their grandfather was sick, and I was trying to comfort him.

I felt guilty for keeping them apart from their grandparents However, I could not lose them. Their father was a cruel man. J could not take any risk by revealing their identity.

"Mom is saying sorry. Look at me." I held my earlobes and asked for an apology from my kids. They almost cried just by looking at me.

"Just a few days. Lam going to return very soon. I promise." I gave them my word.

I talked to them for stime. I told them to go to sleep, and then I hung up the phone when I saw it was late at night.

+15 BONUS I let out a yawn, and I felt sleepy. I was getting ready to lay on the bed. However, I felt thirsty.

There was not a single glass of water in the room when I looked around.

So I got up and left my room. I realized all the lights were off outside my room. When cto the passageway, I noticed a few dim lights there.

I started to walk to the staircase when I saw a maid. I requested an I requested an glass of water, and she assuredthat she would bring water to my room. I thanked the maid and turned around to walk back to my room.

While heading to my room, I heard the sound of footsteps in the darkness. My steps halted.

Almost instantly, I spun around to look at it.

My eyes widened when I found a dark silhouette standing behind 1. me.

The sight of a pair of red eyes staring atcausedto let out a gasp.
