Chapter 122 Strip
‘I didn’t realize that my return to the forest would bequeath me such a beautiful view. I had a feeling that a useless omega like you would tell the truth to Wyatt, so I simply sent a timed message. The only reason you were able to get this picture is because you made Wyatt lock me up.’
Even without seeing her, I could feel the anger radiating in her words. I quickly burrowed into the blanket to hide myself from Arya. My hands began to shake, and my face broke into sweat.
It can’t be. It can’t be that she’s also sending the timed message to Wyatt, can it? Aren’t I dead in such a way?
No wonder. No wonder I felt that her gaze while staring at me when I was leaving the prison with Wyatt was filled with words. It turns out... it turns out that this was here; she was waiting for me.
My lips quivered, and my heart began to thrum against my chest. I shook my head frantically. No. No. Wyatt can’t know. I can’t let Wyatt know. But how?
I bit my lower lip in distress.
Suddenly, my phone vibrated, snapping me out of my chaotic thoughts. I looked down at my phone and began to read the incoming messages seriously.
‘I have been waiting for Wyatt for years, but a cheating slut like you suddenly came out from nowhere to snatch my Wyatt. You don’t deserve my Wyatt at all. It’s quite interesting that you’re cheating on him with Alpha Oswald, Wyatt’s best friend. You reek of shamelessness!’
I bit my lower lip while thinking that she didn’t even get her facts straight because I was not cheating on Wyatt.
If it’s about the kiss, I had nothing to hide but recalling the fragile relationship between the two. I knew how provoked Wyatt would be, and I was afraid that revealing the relationship between the three would make the Alpha and Beta families fall out.
That’s the last thing I’ll want: for the close families to break apart because of me.
I took a deep breath and bit my lower lip while thinking if I should come clean with Wyatt.
It’ll be better for Wyatt to know through me than through a stranger!
Pondering like that, I simply decided to chat with Wyatt, but before I could, my phone vibrated due to an incoming text….
‘Do you enjoy being in Beta Wyatt’s embrace? You think you win by letting Beta Wyatt punish my subordinate? How about I send the picture to him as revenge?’
My eyes lit up upon receiving the incoming message. It seems the phone has been handed over to someone, and the person is willing to talk on terms with me.
I took a deep breath to calm down. As long as the terms aren’t excessive, I’ll fulfill them, as long as the picture doesn’t get revealed to Wyatt.
Before I could send a comment, a video was sent to me.
I clicked on the video immediately, and I discovered that the person had taken the video of Oswald kissing me.
My heart skipped a beat, and a trace of fury overwhelmed me, but upon recalling that I was on the passive side, I knew I could only calm down.
‘Don’t send it.’ I quickly typed and sent
‘Since Beta Wyatt pardoned my subordinate, I decided to give you a second chance. My subordinate has a last wish: she wants to stare at him for the last time at a distance through the weekend. As long as you stay in the hostel for the weekend, I’ll retract sending the video, but if you can’t, I’ll upload it to the whole pack.’
My eyes widened, and my body shook upon seeing the request.
Permitting the girl to stare at Wyatt from a distance, even though it’s quite unacceptable, is not a big problem, but the major problem is staying in the hostel for the weekend.
How do I tell Wyatt that I can’t come home for the weekend? I have no excuse.
‘That. Can you make another request? I can’t fulfill that.’ I bit my lips and typed while staring at my phone nervously.
‘Do you think I need money? All I want is to fulfill my subordinate's last wish. Accept or not. The ball is in your court.’
I bit my lower lip and turned to my right side. I knew I had no choice but to find an excuse not to go to the mansion if I didn’t want the video and picture out there.
‘Fine. Then stick to your promise, and don't try to threaten me with it again.’
‘I won't.’
I inhaled deeply and tossed my phone next to my side. I began to rack my brain, thinking about how to avoid Wyatt for the weekend.
Should I hide in the forest? The forest is basically the first place Wyatt will search as soon as he finds out I'm missing, so that’s not possible.
So what should I do…
“Maia, dinner is ready. Let's eat.” Arya suddenly pulled my blanket off, catching me off-guard. An adorable smile lit up her face.
She clicked her tongue and eyed me with a sympathetic gaze. “Locking the blanket so tightly. Rest. Brother isn't here.” She teased, making me roll my eyes.
I stared at Arya and tried to tell her that I had no appetite, but upon recalling that I hadn’t eaten all day, I bit my lower lip and stood up.
I’m afraid that Arya will end up calling Wyatt to the hostel. “Thank you.”
…..
I couldn't help but think about what to do. The more I thought about how to avoid going to the mansion for the weekend, the more confused I was.
My life had simply been revolving around Wyatt ever since I stepped into the pack. There's no lie I would spin that Wyatt won't find it amiss.
But thinking about the picture and video, I bit my lower lip in determination. I can't let it be revealed to the pack.
“Aren't you going home to meet brother?” Arya suddenly leaned forward and whispered next to me, jolting me out of my reverie. The class had just ended, and most of the students had left the class in preparation for the weekend.
I shook my head quickly. “The top students are holding tutorials to help with our studies. I find myself lacking in some of them, so I'll be attending them. Wyatt had warned that I couldn't fail.” I quickly spin out a white lie while trying to make my expression as calm as possible.
Arya sighed in distress and patted my shoulder as if to console me, obviously falling for my lie. “It's not easy for the beta’s wife,” she said, and I nodded pitifully in reply.
“I'm leaving then,” Arya announced to me and waved her hands before leaving the class.
I sighed in relief and laid my head on the table dejectedly.
Of course, I have no intention to attend any class. I just wanted to avoid going home for the weekend.
Buzz
The sudden vibration of my phone attracted my attention.
I quickly picked up my phone to discover that Wyatt was the sender.
‘Where are you?’
My heart skipped a beat, and my fingers shook in fright, but I quickly bit my lower lip to suppress my nervousness.
I inhaled and simply began to type. ‘I want to attend tutorials today to make up for my studies.’
‘Pick you tomorrow?’
‘Yes.’
I sighed and fell back onto the chair dejectedly. My heart seemed to clench with pain, making it very uncomfortable.
I missed him a lot. I really do, but just this one time. Wyatt, I'm so sorry.
Tears pooled in my eyes, and my lips quivered.
Feeling Maia attempting to say a word of comfort, I simply blocked her like I've been doing ever since I received the message from the unknown number three days ago.
I stared at the distance absentmindedly and refused to let the tears spill past my eyes. Recalling all I had gone through in the red flame pack, I felt a sense of fury overwhelm me. That's right, I'm not the type to cry pathetically. I'll be fine.
I'm just making a sacrifice. Just a sacrifice to prevent trouble from ensuing. If I simply miss Wyatt too much, I could call him.
Thinking like this, I calmed down, picked up my bag, and left the class for the hostel.
The school compound was very quiet, helping me calm down. I guess I'm just one of the few students left in the school compound.
I lay on my bed and stared at the distance. I unblocked Maia and stared at the wall remorsefully. “Maia, I'm sorry…”
BANG!!!
The sudden kick at my door made me jump slightly. My heart skipped a beat due to the sudden noise.
My lips parted to say a word, but I smacked my lips together fearfully upon making contact with a cold-looking Wyatt. “Hub. Hubby?”
“Your tutorial ended?” Wyatt’s black eyes were very piercing, and his voice sounded very dangerous to the ear, making me shiver.
My eyes darted around in nervousness, and my heart began to thrum in nervousness. What was Wyatt doing here? How did he know I wasn't in the class? Didn't he leave? “I… I...”
Due to my nervousness, I found myself unable to say a word. Tears pooled in my eyes, and my body began to shiver.
“Cat got your tongue?” Wyatt sneered at me coldly; his voice was freezing, and his eyes were particularly glaring. It felt as if I'd been thrown into an ice stellar by Wyatt’s freezing gaze.
My heart skipped a bit. Wyatt seems really angry this time. I have never seen Wyatt so infuriated before, and I fear that it won't bear well for me.
I whimpered fearfully.
“Daring! Planning to avoid me for the weekend?” Wyatt scoffed coldly and suddenly tossed his phone at me.
My eyes widened, and I gulped in fright. How. How did Wyatt know about my plan to avoid him for the weekend? Wasn’t. Didn’t
I caught Wyatt’s incoming phone reflexively and went through it under Wyatt’s gaze.
Upon seeing the video and picture of Oswald and me, my body trembled. It felt as if I'd been dealt a huge blow.
My hands trembled. Didn't that person promise to hide it from Wyatt? How come? How come Wyatt had the kiss video of Oswald and me on his phone? Did he trick me?
My face paled, and my body trembled. “Wyatt, it isn't what you think. I. I'm not…”
“Strip!” Wyatt interjected in a cold voice, his face laced with gloom.
Immediately, he locked the hostel door and tossed the key into his trouser pocket.
His hand made its way to his buttons, and he simply began to unbutton them.
My heart skipped a beat, and my eyes pooled with tears. I scurried off the bed and stared at Wyatt with tears in my eyes, wanting to explain that it wasn’t as he thought and that there was nothing between Oswald and me. “Hubby…”
“Did you recall what I told you? When next you hide from me, I'll fuck you to death.”
