Hiding His Alpha Twins novel Chapter 16

Catarina’s Pov

"The truth?" Alex looked surprised. "Are you sure that’s what you want?" He stroked my hair affectionately and I nodded. It was for the best. They would find out eventually and I hated the idea of them growing up and hating me for not telling them their true heritage. "They need to know." I sighed and wished it wasn’t so difficult.

"I will be with you every step of the way. I’m just so glad that we have each other now." Alex told me and gave me a hug. I felt so good being in his arms, safe and protected.

"In fact, I want to announce you as my queen at the ball. I am so lucky to have you by my side that I want the world to know." He grinned excitedly.

"Who will be coming?" I asked.

"Alphas and Luna’s from all over, my dearest." He spoke.

"What if he’s there?"

I hated to hear myself ask those words, but I needed to be sure. I could not risk him finding me.

"Rest assured, he will not be attending. He has no invite. My men have already made sure of that." He smirked and I felt relief wash over me.

"I hope you are right." I spoke.

"Besides, you are mine now. Nobody will be taking you from me." He pushed me down and straddled me, pinning my arms down above my head and looking me in the eyes. Oh, goddess how handsome he was. The moon goddess had truly blessed me with this second chance mate. I would be forever grateful to her.

"And you’re mine." I giggled before his lips landed on mine and we started to kiss.

I felt so good with him. It just felt right and everything else was pushed to the back of my mind as I kissed him back.

As our lips parted, a tender smile graced my face, and I gazed deeply into Alex's eyes. The love and devotion that radiated from him gave me strength, reminding me that together we could conquer any obstacle that lay ahead.

"We'll face this challenge, my love," I whispered, my voice filled with determination. "And we'll do it together."
