Chapter 21: Where's Emma?

"

"Where's Emma? he asked, his voice calm and soft.

"How am I supposed to know, well She's properly in her room, doing her own thing"Mia said with an eyeroll, she was wondering why he always asked of her.

"Aren't you going to rest now that we have finally married? Emma isn't bad, so you should keep your mind at rest as this isn't going to be of any good help if it continues like this" Alpha Nathan tried to persuade her.

"Can I talk about myself? When she comes, you should talk about her" Alpha Nathan relented as he went closer to the bedside.

"Mia, can you please always protect her whenever I am not around? Take her like your younger sister, and everything will be okay" Nathan bent softly, trying to kiss her, but she sprang up angrily.

"Why can't I have a listening ear again, everything Emma? Is she a child that she can't protect herself? What's It about her? she asked angrily.

"I mean no harm Mia, I am saying this because she's a human, and you know some rongues might want to use the opportunity. I trust you that you could do that for me. That's why I am asking you to protect her like a sister and treat her well." Mia stood up on the bed.

"I am done here." She stormed out of the room angrily. She met Emma on her way in, and she wonders what the problem is and tries to follow her, but she stops knowing that she'd get into trouble, so she chooses to speak with Alpha Nathan first. She rushed to his room and was dazed to see his bare chest. He was so handsome that she had even imagined that his chest could make anyone go crazy and wet their pants. But this is not the best time to admire him, she summoned the courage to ask him what the issue was.

"What happened between you and Mia?She looks really angry" she asked, her voice crackling.

"Just having some conversation—I think that's not enough reason for someone to be angry, Nathan said without any hint of regret.

"But at least you should have tried to stop her; you don't even know how to pamper a lady; you are too pompous and arrogant. You know Mia has an anger issue; you shouldn't have gotten her angry and let her leave" she quarreled, her eyes brimming with anger.

"Are you fighting me all because of Mia? That shouldn't be happening, right? You don't even know what happened" Emma nodded a no in reply.

"I can fight and keep beef with you if you don't treat her well; her wellbeing is my priority, she's not just my Co-wife, but I took her like a sister, and all I want is to see her happy always, even if it's mean to sacrifice my happiness. You know how much you mean to her, and fate tends to have its way and maybe ruin all her plans. Maybe you didn't know how much wedding night means to a lady that you couldn't even keep her happy. If you can't settle with her first, please don't talk to me." She was about to go out when he dragged her back and pulled her into a tight hug.

"Why are you so mad at me? You didn't even give me a chance to explain myself. You've said millions of things. Aren't you reserved at all?" She tried to release herself from the hug, but it seems he's not ready to let go.

"Leave me alone and go apologize to her. Seeing her in that situation makes me feel sad, and I should be blamed for it. I was the one who cane between you both. The few times you both came to the office together, I saw how cheerful you both appeared, but everything changed immediately I stepped in. And the guilt that came in between two lovers is hitting me," She cried in his chest, making Nathan feel some guilt. He really needs to put in a lot of patience to be the husband of these two, Beta Bryan was right when he said two women are in double trouble, but he's ready to make this double trouble a double joy for himself.

"I will go and apologize to her, but please don't be mad at me. I never meant to hurt her; it was unintentional. I will do anything I can to bring that smile back to her face tonight. So just stay here and wait while I go and get her." He consoled her, and she nodded her head. He finally released himself from the hug. Alpha Nathan makes her sit on the bed and promises to bring her back. He was about to go out of the room, forgetting he hadn't put on his rope.

"Are you trying to entice the girls in the palace with your chest? Emma shouted with an ooze of jealousy In her voice. Alpha Nathan turned back immediately and went to get his cloth.

"Don't tell me you are jealous, thinking someone will snatch me from you" He teased her before going out of the room.

"No one has the right to see your bare chest except for me and my sister Mia" She blushed.

"Hmmmm" he hums, stepping out.

"Don't forget to he romantic while begging" She shouted after him. Taking a scan of the room, she realized it was a very big room painted white with a touch of red, with different colors of light that gave the room its own beauty. She touched the bed she's sitting on and imagined how much that would cost if she decided to use her salary she's earned for the year. Maybe it won't be able to buy the bed.

"I can always sleep here every day, or my room should be decorated like this. I will be the happiest person on earth." She bounced on the bed as the bed bounced her back. She lay on the bed, sleeping like a queen.
