BOUGHT BY THE RUTHLESS ALPHA novel Chapter 85

 
Sienna’s P.O.V

I looked at his appearance with a strange look on my face. Why is he dressed oddly? That was when that scent hit me. He doesn’t smell like my Ala… I mean Alan. He smells completely different from him. I can smell cinnamon and chocolate in the air.
 
  He smells like my favourite. I looked at him again and saw that he already stopped walking. He was also looking back at me with a similar strange look on his face. I gasped as his eyes changed colours revealing the beautiful silver eyes of his wolf.
 
  Then he growled and called out, “Mate!” My feet were rooted to the ground and I couldn’t move. I heard that faint whisper in my head again. It’s my wolf. She was chanting that familiar word, “Mate! Mate!”
  Jake stared at the both of us in utter silence.
 
 
 Meanwhile in the master’s bedroom~
 
  “Yes, mum… I know. I know. What I did was wrong? I shouldn’t have kept her away from you. I am sorry. I promise once she wakes up, I’ll bring her to you,” William said with a sullen look as he held his phone tightly.
 
  Apparently, he called his mother and of course, she scolded him and is even still scolding him.
 
  “Oh… Mom, do you want to talk to him?” William asked as he stared at Alan who was sitting on the edge of the bed. He was checking Bridget’s pulse.
 
  William frowned a little when his mother sniffled over the phone. Since Alan appeared busy, he put the phone on the loudspeaker so everyone in the room can hear her.
 
  Her voice came through the phone, “Joe… Is that you?,” She asked tearfully. It’s obvious that she already started crying from the way her voice sounded over the phone.
 
  Alan looked at William with a puzzled look. Who is Joe? His name is Alan so why is his aunt saying, Joe? But he still answered, “Aunt… It’s Alan, not Joe. I am…”
 
  She cuts him off as she cried out happily, “Of course it’s you! My little Joe. Don’t you remember when I used to call you Joe when you were little? Of course… Of course, you are all grown now. My baby is all grown now… Where is Jace? I want to talk to him also.”
 
  William sighed helplessly as he listened to his mom crying and laughing happily. He answered this time and said,” I asked someone to call him.”
 
  He involuntarily gulped at the fact that if his mother finds out that he actually held her long-lost nephew captive, he is sure he won’t survive.
 
  “Willy,” His mom said. He arched an eyebrow when he held that. She rarely calls him that unless she wants to acquire something from him. So he just kept quiet and didn’t reply.
 
  What she said next confirmed his suspicion, “Willy… Are you sure I can’t come over now? It’s not too late you know? It’s just noon. I really want to see my nephews and my daughter-in-law”
 
  William shook his head and said, “Mom, I already promised you. Once Bridget recovers, we will all come over to visit you.” He could already imagine her sad expression when he said that.
 
  Just then, the door opened. William and Alan looked up. Jake, Jace and Sienna entered the room. Alan’s eyes clashed with Sienna’s for just a minute before she looked away.
 
  She is still angry at him. He can feel it. He thought that perhaps once everything gets settled, he will apologize to her. He looked down and missed an important detail.
 
  But William surely noticed cause he looked down at Jake and Sienna's conjoined hands. He arched an eyebrow, wondering what is going on.
 
  “Is that Jace?” His mother suddenly asked and he remembered that he still hasn’t disconnected the call. But how did she know?
 
  “Yes. Good day ma’am,” Jace answered casually while William was observing. He was trying to figure out the difference between Alan and Jace but there was absolutely no difference. They look alike just like peas in a bud.
 
  “Silly boy, can’t you call me aunt? How have you been honey? I remember that you have always been calm and collected. A complete opposite of my little Joe who was always causing mischief everywhere,” She said and the room roared with laughter.
 
  Alan looked embarrassed. He immediately tried to protest, “Aunt! I am not like that anymore. I was just younger then. Now I’m all grown up.”
 
   Jace gave him a conservative look and muttered, “Yeah, I can see that. You don’t have six-packs though cause you spend most time eating junk instead of working out with me. I wonder why you aren’t fat after all the junk you consume.”
 
  The room roared with laughter again. That sweet sound… It’s so refreshing. Everywhere has been depressing after what happened to Bridget.
 
  That was when Jace dropped the bombshell. He pulled Sienna forward and wrapped his hands around her. She blushed and Alan frowned.
 
  “Aunt, have you met my mate? Her name is Sienna… A pretty name for a beauty like her,” Jake said, making her blush even more.
 
  A hush fell upon the room as everyone looked at each other with mixed expressions. William's face broke into a smile as he stared at the two. Jake was expressionless cause he already knows. Meanwhile, Alan was dumbstruck… What!!?
 
  “Sienna? Is that the same Sienna I know? Honey, is that you?” William's mother asked over the phone with an excitement-laced voice.
 
  “Hello aunt, how have you been?” Sienna asked with a huge smile. William's mother gasped before saying, “It’s really you. Aunt is upset with you.”
 
  “Why is that?”
 
   “You didn’t come to visit as you promised to,” She answered Sienna’s question.
 
  Before anyone else could say anything, Alan stood up abruptly and chirped into the discussion. His words were actually directed at Jace and Sienna.
 
  “This can’t be! She is my mate. How is she yours too?” He dropped the second bombshell and another wave of silence fell upon the room.
