Accidentally Pregnant By My Alpha Best friends (Madeline) novel Chapter 101

101–Our Weird Relationship

Madeline:

I had gone out for a short walk after the kids were put to bed. They hadn’t met Sawyer because we’d spent nearly the entire day with the council. I wasn’t even sure if they knew their father was here.

After we returned from the council and the kids were asleep, we ate dinner in silence. Then I decided to step out for some air. On my way back, I saw Elgin leaving the guesthouse mansion, walking straight toward me. I slowed down immediately, his expression made it clear he wanted to talk.

“You haven’t fallen asleep?” I asked.

Tired after everything that had happened, I’d promised myself not to get caught up in my little dramas with these alphas anymore. I just wanted to exist and focus on finding a cure for the sickness. The problem was, I wasn’t doing it to go back home anymore, this was home now.

“So that’s the big guy, huh? Sawyer,” he said, his tone mocking.

I noticed the way his nose scrunched as he looked toward the guesthouse and realized he was trying to provoke me.

“What’s up with you? Why are you being so sassy?” I asked, confused by his behavior.

“Well, guess what? While you were out taking a walk, your husband was fucking someone else in the house. And since you’re out here and the babysitter’s the only one inside, I’m guessing they’re having an affair,” Elgin said, resting his hands on his hips.

For a moment, I just stood there, stunned. Then I blinked a few times and leaned forward, making sure I’d heard him correctly.

“Say that again. My husband is what?” I asked.

“Your husband is cheating on you.”

As soon as he repeated it, his gaze shifted behind me.

From the woods emerged my husband, still in his suit, looking fresh, but he’d clearly heard the accusation.

“I’m sorry, what, Alpha Elgin?” Sawyer asked in his velvety voice, his hands tucked into his pockets as he positioned himself between us.

“I think he saw something and thought it was you,” I said quickly.

“I” Elgin cleared his throat. “I mean, I t–hought– I tho–ught it was you. I’m really sorry. It’s just that she used to be my friend, so I got a little protective.”

As soon as he said it, my heart skipped a beat.

From the way my eyes widened, I knew Elgin realized he’d said something he shouldn’t have.

“You guys used to be friends?” Sawyer asked, tilting his head.

The awkwardness that followed was unbearable.

“Yeah, we used to be. Why?” I replied, trying to sound casual.

And then another one appeared, the last person I wanted to overhear.

“She hasn’t told you?” Baxter asked as he approached, towering over all of us.

“No, I didn’t know she had alpha friends,” Sawyer said.

The look he gave me made it clear to the men now that they had caused me a serious problem.

“It wasn’t much of a friendship,” Elgin intervened, “We just used to hang out, with a bunch of other people.”

Elgin immediately jumped in, trying to smooth things over, stumbling through his words to protect us.

But Baxter simply stood there, looking entirely unbothered.

“It’s alright. You don’t have to explain yourself. It was in the past.”

Sawyer wrapped his arm around me, pulling me closer against his chest. I almost bumped into him.

“Besides, I guess that’s why you were so worried about her. Don’t worry, I’m not a cheater,” Sawyer remarked, his voice full of confidence.

“Well, you guys were coming out for a walk,” Sawyer continued.

Even knowing the others were alphas, he spoke to them as if he’d known them for years.

There was no trace of insecurity in his manner, only layers upon layers of secrets.

After all, the human world moved at the flick of his pinky finger.

“Yeah, you guys were heading back?” Elgin asked, while Baxter stayed quiet,

“Yeah, we got really tired. I mean, it’s not like I have a wolf or something,” Sawyer replied in a deep, sassy tone.

I laughed lightly to make it seem like a joke.

“Good night,” I said quickly, wrapping my arm around Sawyer’s and leading him back to the mansion.

Once inside, with the door shut behind us, I pulled off my sweater and threw it onto the couch before turning to face him.

“Seriously? So you came here not for me, but for Nina?” I demanded, my fists clenched.

Sawyer rolled his eyes.

“I wasn’t fucking her. I just kissed her. There’s a difference.” The way he said it and the way he began taking off his coat, made me swallow my anger.

“Come on, you never had a problem with it before,” he commented, sitting down and pouring himself a glass of

wine.

“You’re right, but I don’t want them to know about the dynamics of our relationship,” I replied.

It was hard to admit that he had a mistress, and that same mistress was my nanny and my assistant
