Chapter 472
462-Never Losing Trust.
We all sat defeatedly, watching her devour everything from the kitchen as if she hadn't eaten in days.
"Her father is a gamma and works at the weapon department for the alpha kings," I told Colt, watching her with my eagle eyes
from afar.
"Hmm, something seems off about her," Colt commented.
"I know it is because she is taking over the role of Gwen. We were skeptical about her in the beginning as well," I said, and
pouted sadly.
"Well, she made me realize how wrong we were to question and give Gwen a hard time. Gwen seems like an angel in front of
this witch," Colt hissed.
We have established one thinning in these few hours.
None of us liked Shiloh.Some even suggested we kick her out and let her be, but it was Reign who told us something was up.I
also didn’t want her to go out, because whatever Zane wanted from her seemed like a plan against us.
"Are you upset with Akin?" Colt asked after briefly staring at his cellphone’s screen. I rolled my eyes at him and then raised my
eyebrow.
"He messaged you to ask me that?" I asked Colt, who gulped. I turned around and saw Akin in the living room, watching us from
the door.
"Go talk to him," Colt suggested.
"I will.It is not like he had a choice.He tried to reject her, but it didn’t work either," I said to Colt before parting ways with him to
speak to Akin.
Helel insisted that one of us should keep watching Shiloh.
If they wanted something from Shiloh, they would return.
While Colt stayed behind, I walked out of the kitchen and met up with Akin, who raised his hand for me.I held his hand and
ended up in his arms, hugging him tightly.
"I am not mad at you," I answered his question that he wanted Colt to ask me.
“I don’t want to lose you, okay?"
Akin mumbled, rubbing my back.
"Something doesn’t make any sense," Akin broke the hug so that he could look me in the eye and explain a few things to me.
"Isn't the mate bond supposed to make us feel good?"
He asked, and I nodded, "Like, it is supposed to make us fall for someone, but why is it that I have never hated anyone more
than I hate Shiloh?"
He stroked his chin dramatically, making me slap his chest playfully.
"I know you are not---falling for her, so stop trying.However---," I paused and took a huge breath.
"What if this is what the Moon Goddess wants? I mean---obviously she gave you two mates, like she gave me many mates. I
was allowed to---" I paused as he shook his head.
"You never cheated on any of us.So stop making it like that.As for what the moon goddess wants, she just gives us mates.It is up
to us to decide which one we want to stay with.And I want you.Apart from me feeling a mate bond with that girl in the kitchen, I
am still feeling my mate bond with you, stronger than ever," he cupped my face in his hands and crashed his lips against mine.
My body shivered, as if it was going to be a hard time trying to work things out when this girl was such a bitch to everyone.
"Uh!"
As expected, Shiloh’s loud sigh made us separate and turn our heads to her.She had a very blunt and bitter look on her face as
she stood in front of us with a plate full of cookies.
"Can you two love birds step aside? Some of us have to be in the living room," she muttered while giving a bitter headshake.
Before Akin could comment on something out of anger, I gently held his arm and silenced him.We stepped aside to let her pass,
and that’s when we watched someone else enter the mansion.
It was a black-haired, brown-eyed guy with a box of cookies and a latte in his hands.His glasses made him look so adorably
innocent.
"Awe!" I don’t know why, but that was my first reaction until Akin pinched my butt and eyed me to stop.
"Hi, Iam Omega Jay Miles," the boy had a very soothing voice when he introduced himself to us.
"Alpha King Akin!"
The boy was quick enough to show respect as he bowed down to him.
"Don't be a tucking spineless weirdo—that man over there is my fated mate.Have some spine and show attitude—at least
jealousy!"
Shiloh yelled from the inside of the living room, "And you spent so much time bringing me cookies that I made my own.Now
throw yours in the trash can."
The way she treated me was mind- boggling.
Jay silently stood there, looking embarrassed and confused.
"But you have a mate," Jay asked in his softest tone, giving me a little head bow to greet me.
"And she is the only mate I want.You can keep up with that crazy lady; I cannot,"
Akin commented, fuming at this point.I have never watched him be so uncomfortable around anyone as he was around Shiloh.
"She is not usually that bad.I don’t know what happened to her for a few days,"
Jay was quick enough to defend her in his calmest voice.
"Tha---," as Akin attempted to comment about her again for all the right reasons, I gently squeezed his butt this time.
"Why don't you go join her? We will be there in a minute, okay?" I told the boy, who gave me a big smile and, before walking
away, offered me the cookie box.
"I make the best cookies," he said sweetly. I accepted the box and watched him wander away.
"What was that awww we all about?"
Akin made me turn to face him and hear him complain, "And why did you pinch my butt?"
He complained playfully, showing false anger.
"Oh, I thought that was our secret code to let the other know we are now crossing the boundary," I said, giving him a blunt look.
He secretly scratched his neck, as he understood.
No matter how hard we tried to make it seem like everything was normal and that we were not worried, the truth of the matter
was that we were worried.
