Chapter 84
She looks at me closely as she tells me the story of my life apparently. "Enough of the disturbances, the car will be here soon. So, Bella as I was saying, your kindness couldn't have been taken more advantage of and not just by me. I am going to leave you as you let that sink in."
She walks away swaying her hips like it the dawning of the world and it is in her hands. Taking from her plan she might just as well feel so. She found a weak spot and went ahead and jabbed it. It was cleaver I shouldn't lie, but Aiden said to trust him. He might have something brewing.
But she did say something about thinking about what she said. She said that my kindness was taken advantage of not just by her. what did she mean.
"What do you mean?" I ask before she got to the other side. She pauses mid stride, turns about and faces me with a devilish smile on her.
"I was waiting for your interest to peak. This story is too interesting not to be interested. It all starts from the day you let me in to your lovely home, nice place if I may say. I see you did a little to add in your touch. It's nice, makes it feel more homey. But that is not my intention to make it look homey. It is the house of an Alpha and a Luna after all." She exhausts.
"You see, I as the new Luna wouldn't want to live surrounded by things that are going to remind my husband of the mistake he made trying to infuriate me. So I will have the furniture burned and the house remodeled." The audacity this woman had was admirable, but this was insanity too. How come she couldn't understand that when a person didn't like you they didn't like you.
She even had to get to the point that she used blackmail to achieve her wants, now this wasn't something to admire. If I had seen it earlier then I would have put her in a psych ward myself. She is definitely a threat to society and all things living.
"But I am not here to talk design plans with you." She continues interrupting my train of thought to a deep abyss. "What I was talking about is how your house held a lovely space for a rekindle. She is in my face now trying to read my reaction.
Rekindle. She said. With who? We were three by the time weren't we? I ask myself. Indeed we were. I give myself the obvious. But Aiden told me that he was done with her, it made logical sense. He dated her longer and decided to marry me, a person he barely knew. If he had anything for her then he wouldn't have been so quick to dismiss her. the way he looked at her or didn't look at her was all the proof I needed to know that worrying about such stuff was bothersome for no reason.
If at all her delusional personality had to tell me anything it was that that her imagination was of all sorts. She might have imagined it all, the ‘rekindle'.
I steal a glance at Aiden to see his reaction to all this nonsense that was starting to qualify as a joke the media puts you through then later on announce that it was a joke and you are on TV. Left there humiliated in front of an infinity number that you could not have contemplated was watching you and were so amused about your humiliated self.
In some weird way, that thought seemed highly likely to me that I did a quick take of the place before I even get to watch Aiden's face. I look round in a quick glance trying to find something out of the ordinary.
There weren't any wires hidden in the leaves, no lurking shadows in the distance not even a rustle in the bush. If this was indeed a television setting then I was impressed at how careful they are. But if it was anything they can never hide is the mic they attach to a person for better audio. They might be able to hide it from the eyes of the camera but they couldn't possibly hide it from a person on set.
I look at her, as close as she was I had to make sure she did not notice my eyes stray from her gaze all over her body trying to look for wires or something.
"I see you are trying to look for an escape route. But the only way out of this place is the way you came in from, you know this. You shouldn't be worried if you think I am going to kill you, I am not allowed to so you can rest easy and know that you are coming out of this place a single mother. Hope you don't struggle too much." She just liked it when she tormented me.
"But look, I got off track again." She continues even when her so called guest didn't reply to her insane ways. "look here Bella, if you are that slow then I will tell you myself than waiting for you to catch up. Your sweet husband and I were having an affair right under your pregnant nose."
"Don't listen to her!" Aiden screams. I look at him and his expression just says it all. He was furious.
"Oh Aiden, don't be such a bad sport. I would really like her to listen to the story. I would like to share happiest times I have spent with you. Mostly this one where your pregnant wife was sitting at home and you and I were busy."
What! What did I just hear? Was this really true what she was saying? If it wasn't then why was Aiden so worried about me listening to lies as we waited for our pups.
