The Alpha's Four Hidden Heirs (Natalie and Samuel) novel Chapter 26

I was shocked to see him standing there, I mean I was so focused on the kids that I didn’t even notice that he had walked in and he just stood there staring at me.

“How long have you been here?” I ask him.

His lips curled up, and he replied in a deep voice, “Since you started the story about the three little pigs.”

His gaze was so dark and I felt like a prey under his gaze, I couldn’t look him in the eyes so I turned my face away.

If he’s been here since I started telling the story. That means it’s been at least half an hour. Is he really that worried about me hanging out with Franklin and Sophia? Or is it something else entirely?

“Alpha Bowers, there’s no need to distrust me, I like your kids, I really do and that’s why I agreed to read them a bedtime story.” I tell him as I do my best to blink the tears out of my eyes, he really caught me at a bad time.

“I mean I’m going to be here at least once a month to help Sophia with her aphasia and if you don’t trust me ti be around your kids, I don’t know how that’s going to work. This is your home, you’re the Alpha, I wouldn’t he stupid enough to try anything.” I explain to him.

The tears for some reason wouldn’t stop coming down my face and I did my best to wipe them away with my hands. I always get emotional when I think of my children that Yara took away from me and now been hete with Sophia and Franklin, it just made it even more emotional,. that’s why I can’t stop crying.

Also it’s the fact that Franklin and Sophia are the same age and gender of the babies that I lost, no one knows about this except for Theo and that’s because he’s the one helping me. Clayton and Xavier aren’t even aware that they have a brother and a sister.

And of course Samuel chose this moment to be here, I hated being weak in front of him, I didn’t want him to see me like this, it was so embarrassing.

“Stop doing that.” He tells me and I stop rubbing off the tears and look up at him, he has that frown on his face.

“What?” I ask confused, does he mean that I should stop crying? Do my tears bother him? No, that’s not possible.

He sighs and he makes his way over to me. “Stop rubbing your face like that, you are going to hurt yourself.” He tells me and he grabs both of my hands to stop me and then he looks into me eyes. “Your eyes are the most beautiful part of your face, it would be a shame to ruin it.” He

says.

I’m stunned speechless, did he really just say that? He continued staring into my eyes and I into his and that’s when I notice that his eyes might be black, but they aren’t soulless, his eyes have this hypnotic magnet to them, they just suck in.

“I would have asked Gavin to keep an eye on you if I had any suspicions.” He speaks.

“Then why…”

He caressed the corner of my eye with his slender fingers and gently wiped away my tears.

“I’m not good with the children ” He admitted softly. “I wanted to see how you interact with them and understand why they are so attached to you. I mean I never planned on having them, but they’re my kids and I’m just trying to do my best.” He admits.

Being this close to him, it was doing things to me and I couldn’t think straight, Laila was all ready to jump his bones but I couldn’t let that happen. I try to take a step back but he won’t let me, he keeps his hand tight on my waist and moves me forward so I’m flush against his chest with no where to go.

I tried struggling. However, he just held onto me more tightly, I swear this man is so infuriating, who the hell does he think he is, holding on to me like this.

“Alpha Bowers…” I said in a stern tone, but he acts like he didn’t hear me.

“You’re a grown–up, but you’re even worse than Franklin and Sophia. Don’t you know how to wipe away your tears properly?” He asks and his warm and deep voice rang over my head, and before I knew it, I stopped struggling and stayed put. Like I said his voice was hypnotic and then being this close to him, there was his scent, it was like oak or cedar and I couldn’t put my finger on it but I had gotten that scent somewhere before.

He wiped my tears and then he looked into my eyes again and he got a look on his face that I didn’t recognise. He leans down and he runs his nose down my neck and there’s nothing I can do about it, my mind is screaming at me to run but my body isn’t getting the message.

He proceeds to push my hair behind my ear and I knew exactly what he was looking for, it was the mark that he gave me with that silver pin, but he is not going to find anything there.

I have to give it to Alpha Bowers, he is a smart and cautious man, I could tell after he gave me that mark, it meant that he was getting suspicious and I might be wearing my mask, but my scent is the same which was why he sniffed me first.

He looked back at me and I could see the confusion in his eyes because he couldn’t find the mark. He was right about one thing, a mark left behind by silver does leave a scar but I was one step ahead of him, I created a balm that could hide the scar for at least twenty four hours. which means I have to apply it everyday but it had done it’s job.

You might be smart Alpha Bowers but I will always be one step ahead of you.

He let’s go of my waist and takes a step back and I let out a sigh of relief.

After checking on the children one last time, I quickly say my goodbye to Smauel and then I get ready to leave the Bowers residence.

As I was on my way downstairs, I heard the sound of pouring rain outside the house. The rain hit the floor–to–ceiling windows, looking like a curtain of water.

Oh you have got to be kidding me.
