Chapter 160: He Found Her
[Rose’s P.O.V.]
I was in my bedroom, in pain, when the doorbell rang. Since this morning, my little wolf has been very active in my stomach, especially in the last few seconds before the doorbell rang. He had kicked me a few times with unprecedented strength and it left my heart, lungs, and spleen feeling as if they had been punched by his fist. I was feeling quite upset and uncomfortable. Why was he doing this to me today?
Then I hear the sound of an argument in the living room. As soon as I walk out of the room, I saw Susanna falling with Edward standing next to her. I didn’t know what happened between them but I had no choice but to flick Edward away.
When I finally looked at him properly, I froze. I had no idea why he was here or how he had found me?
I watched him get up from the sofa but his deep gaze never left mine. His dark brown eyes were filled with guilt and pain. I could feel a strong spark between us even though I had cut off the connection with him. I was bewildered.
“Rose.”
His voice trembled when he said my name. He wanted to come to me but I pushed him back with my ability.
“Baby, I’m not here to hurt you.”
He stood up again and tried to walk into me. I somehow realized that he wasn’t lying. I could see his thoughts again.
“Alpha, how did you find us?” asked Susanna to him. A hint of doubt appeared on his face but he quickly recovered.
“That’s not important. I’m here to find my mate and my child.”
Edward looked straight at me as he spoke. When he called me his mate just a moment ago, my heart started racing. I longed for his scent, his embrace, his everything. I missed him too much. I struggled in my thoughts, but outwardly, I simply stared at him.
“Dearest, I have so much to say to you, but right now, I just want you to know that you don’t have to be afraid anymore because the Alpha who hurt you wasn’t me. It was just a d*mned b*stard who had been disguised as me with black magic. I will never do anything to hurt you, ever.”
Oh, my God, it was his same deep, magnetic, and strong voice. And he called me dearest – it had been too long since I had heard him call me that.
“Rose, I know it’s you because I can sense the connection between us. I don’t know how because I know you had cut off the day you left the pack. I had felt an unprecedented pain and I almost died because of it. But I still repented for not returning to the pack earlier. I had caused you to suffer so much pain and torture.”
“What? My rejection almost killed you?”
“My dearest, everything is fine now. I have already grasped the masterminds behind all of this, including my car accident, the accusation against you, and all the other bad things that had happened. They will be punished beyond their imagination. My angel, can I see you as you are?
“No! Prove to me that you are the real Edward and not just another imposter!” I tried my best to control my emotions and hormones, but tears were already welling up in my eyes.
“How do you need me to prove it? Would you like to meet Champion?”
“It’s not convenient here. Just answer some of my questions.”
“Anything.”
“When is my birthday?”
“July 15th. How could I forget?”
“What’s my favorite color?”
“Pink. No doubt about it.”
“When did we first meet?”
“You were beaten black and blue by a group of wh*res near the laundry room of New Moon Pack. The leader of the wh*res will receive the punishment she deserves later.”
‘Sarah is involved in all this?’ But I still didn’t stop asking questions.
“What are my parents’ names?”
“Alpha Austin and Luna Nancy, great people.”
“Who was the one who custom-made my dress at my Luna ceremony?”
“Good question, Gabriel and his partner, the French couple. They have been making custom-made clothes for our family for generations,” said Edward.
“What nickname did I give you eight years ago?”
“Popeye, my dearest, I am your Popeye. And at that time, I promised you that I would let you play with the huge Nutcracker in my house once I came back to find you. I swear that I will never lose you again. I am willing to make it up to you for the rest of my life.”
