Chapter 26

Isabella's POV

I got out of bed and headed to the bathroom for a bath. When I was done, I came to the room and dried myself up. I was stark naked as I lived about.

I dried my hair and I put on a clean pair of underwear. I looked at the bed, Damien was still deep in sleep. Even when unconscious, his expression was as cold as ice.

I slipped on a red gown that was very tight fitting, a couple of jewellery and a pair of black high heels. I grabbed my purse and then I walked out of the room.

I entered my car and I drove off. My destination was a restaurant in the middle of town. I had to meet with my spy there. I had sent someone to watch over the situation at Asher's place and he had contacted me yesterday that he had news.

I arrived at the restaurant after a thirty-minute drive. I parked at the side of the road and I picked up my phone. The phone rang for a bit before it was answered,

“I'm at the restaurant,” I said simply and I cut the call. He would be a fool to have ever thought that a queen such as I would ever want to have a meal with a common spy.

A few minutes later, the said soy frantically arrived at my car and I unlocked the door for him to enter.

His name was….. I can't remember but he had black hair and blue eyes, a pretty common look. I could see it from the moment he entered the car, that disgusting fawning smile.

Don't get me wrong, I loved being fawned over and I loved seeing men scrambling to please me but what I hate is seeing irrelevant and mediocre people do it.

I cleared my throat after a while, the idiot had just been staring at me for a while without speaking and the silence was deafening.

“Oh… uhmm… sorry ma'am.” He stammered. I rolled my eyes in irritation.

“What's the news?” I snapped at him but he just chuckled. The fool didn't even seem to notice at all and it made me even angrier.

“The alpha's lady was rushed to the hospital, I suspect she's about to give birth.”

Amelia was about to give birth? This was good news, finally, we can know who the actual father of the child is. I immediately started the car,

“Lead the way,” I said as I drove.

We arrived at the hospital a few minutes later. I sent the spy off as I walked into the hospital. I asked the nurse for directions, claiming I was her family.

Tch, like anyone would want to be her family. I walked towards the room and when I got there, I entered.

I saw the children in their cradle, my eyes widening in pleasant surprise. I wasn't surprised at the fact that Amelia gave birth to a pair of twins but due to the twins themselves.

Piercing silver eyes that bore into one's soul, there was no doubt that they were Damien's children. I wonder what would happen when he found out but for now, I had other business to take care of.

I looked towards Amelia, she was crying and she hadn't noticed me. I smiled, it seemed like she wasn't dumb enough to believe that she could continue fooling Asher that the child was his and I was sure that Asher wasn't foolish enough to not have realised that by now.

After all, we both grew up with someone who had an identical pair of eyes. It was unmistakable that these were Damiens twins.

I quietly left the room and I began to head back out but as I approached the door, I met Asher. I felt a weird feeling inside and I couldn't help but be annoyed. Even now, after being rejected by him, I still have feelings.

“Isabella, what are you doing here?” He asked me coldly.

“Really? Not even a greeting?” I teased but he just continued to stare at me. I was angry, it was obvious that he still loved Amelia from how he looked at me and it made me furious.

She lied to him and now the children that he thought were supposed to be his were for another man and yet he was okay with that.

“You know right?”

“And how's that your business?”

“She lied to you! She cheated on you!!” I yelled but he just kept looking at me with a placid face.

My chest was heaving and I was furious. I looked around and all attention was on me, I clicked my tongue and stormed out of the hospital, getting into my car and driving back to Damien's castle.

I arrived at the castle and I stopped the car. I stayed in for a bit to calm myself down. I couldn't even describe how mad I was, I so wanted to slap that look off of Asher's face.

Suddenly, I had an idea and an evil smile bloomed on my face. I wondered how Damien would react if he found out he had a pair of twins with Asher. I couldn't wait to see Asher's face when Damien took away the twins and destroyed his silly plans of playing dad.

I got out of the car and walked into the castle, heading straight for Damien's room. When I entered the room, he wasn't there but I knew where he would be.

I dropped my purse and I walked towards the garden and just like I expected, I found Damien standing there, staring at the flowers.

He had been doing this ever since I arrived. His expression was always cold and placid and at times I was afraid his face had frozen.

As I approached him, he looked up at me and I smiled a bit. I sat beside him and I held his arms close. I sighed, trying to pay it as casually as possible,

“You wouldn't believe what I found out today,” I began. I didn't expect him to look at me and he didn't, but I knew he was listening,

“Amelia just gave birth to a pair of twins,” I said and I felt his body jerk.

Damien looked at me and my eyes widened in shock. Maybe telling him about the twins wasn't such a good idea.
