After a one-night stand I had three kids novel Chapter 193

Chapter 193

It’s almost midnight when I finish going through the reports as I scan them onto my holotable. I save everything and then make sure the files are there. I place my hands on the edges of the table so I can stretch and release the tension in my lower back. I take a moment to enjoy the silence around me because I know that it’s going to be a while until I get a calm moment like this.

Today’s events play in my head, and the weight of it finally hits me. All those people died for the stupidest reason. That woman deserves to be in prison for what she did. However, the laws are more than clear. And I think enough people have died already. Not to mention that I would have to take over a city if I killed her, and that’s the last thing I need.

“Hey,”

I straighten up and look back at Knight. He’s holding a glass and a plate.

“Hey,” I say, and start shutting everything down. “I was just about to go to bed.”

“Okay,” he says, and sets a glass of orange juice and a sandwich in front of me.

“Thanks,” I sigh, and take a piece.

He cuts them down the middle. Vertically to create two rectangles. He did it for the twins once, and now they refuse to eat the ones that are cut like rectangles. I take a bite and sit on the gaming chair. These are amazing. He was very generous with what went into them.

“Are you finished?”

“Yeah, it was a mess,” I nod. “Some of them took pictures.”

“It could have waited,”

“You’re right,” I agree, and take a drink from the glass.

The tension is thick as he pulls one of the spare chairs over to sit by me. I make it awkward by continuing to eat without looking over at him. When I’m done, I place the glass on top of the plate and stand to go to the room. When I get to the door, he stops me by putting his hand on the door while he presses his body against mine.

“We’re going to work this out now, or we’re going to have a rough day tomorrow,” he whispers in my ear.

For once, Midnight doesn’t go out of her way to betray me when it comes to her mate. She’s equally upset. I side–step him and move my desk because if I have to sit in the gaming chair any longer, I’m going to slam my face on the holo table. Mr. Knightly brought what he believes is the best chair for all–day alpha paperwork. I don’t want to admit it’s a fact because it doesn’t have wheels, so I can move it to the table in the middle of the room.

“How do you suggest we move past this?” I ask him.

“You’re never going to see her again. I sent her to New York with her team so she can help with the new establishment on neutral grounds there.”

“Great,” I shrug.

“I didn’t mean to make you feel the way you did. I didn’t think it would matter. I don’t give a fuck about what she does outside of us. I just wanted you to have the best shadow I could find. I can’t have Vy shadowing you because she’s a luna now.”

“You should have listened to me the first time I told you to get rid of her. What the hell was she doing here? Why the fuck did she think she could talk to me the way she did?” I demand.

“I’ve seen the way you snap when someone talks over you. Earlier, with Tec wasn’t the first time. Amy is a rogue alpha. We tend to be a lot more sensitive when someone is talking down to us.”

“I have never talked down on anyone who’didn’t deserve it. I match people’s energy, Knight. Your little friend disrespected the omegas who handle our food. When I tried to get to know her better, she gave me really fucking rude answers.

Chapter 193

“I turned back and brought her back to you without letting Midnight do her thing, and believe me when I say she was the one who immediately knew that you had fucked her. She wanted to eat her before we even left the house.

“You saw the violent reaction she had today. That hurt. It hurt a lot. It’s not easy to hold her back when she’s excited on a good day, much less when she’s as angry as she was today. Your did that to us. It could have hurt the baby. I could have hurt someone taking refuge in the packhouse.

“On top of that, everyone in the pack house saw what was happening. You humiliated me in front of the people we’re supposed to be leading I’m sorry, I’m supposed to be leading. And you have the audacity to be upset with me over an ex–boyfriend?”

“I’m sorry. I don’t know what else to say,” he says gently. “I fucked up.”

“Yeah, and so that you learn not to do it again, I’m not going to drop this the way I do everything else. You handled this situation poorly, and I’m not going to let it go that easily. I need some space from you for now. I need to process the fact that I am responsible for all the people who died because! took someone’s advice and let that sick fuck go. If you’re not here to assist me with that, please return to the guest room.”
