The Alpha's Four Hidden Heirs (Natalie and Samuel) novel Chapter 73

Cha

NATALIE.

His words sent shivers down my spine and all I want to do in this moment is just fall into his arms and let myself believe everything that he’s saying to me, but I can’t.

He

got close to me and he ran his nose up and down my neck as he sniffed me, he was close that his scent was just clouding my judgement and I didn’t want him to stop because it felt so good.

But I was able to snap out of it.“What a load of crap.” I huffed and started degrading myself out of frustration. “You really think I’m pretty? Look at me.”

“You’re pretty.” He simply says with a smile on his face.

I just put my hands on his chest and started to push him away. “Yeah, right…”

However, in the next second, Samuel quickly and forcefully grabbed my hands planted a kiss on my lips.

I was dumbstruck and tried to retreat, but my back was then planted against the cold wall.

I had nowhere to retreat now.

Our lips collided and it felt like fireworks in my mind and the atmosphere was starting to get pretty steamy and electric. I was trying my best to breathe through all this.

After a while, Samuel finally removed his lips from mine.

I put my fingers on my lips, still not able to comprehend what just happened. But tyen when my mind finally catches up, all I feel is anger. I raised my hand and gave him a hard slap on his cheek.

Slap! A clear slapping sound was heard, which shocked me, I mean I thought about it and the next thing I know, I was doing it.

Knowing Samuel’s skills, he could easily stop my hand or even avoid it if he wanted to, but he didn’t.

With heavy breathing and slightly plumped lips, I said frustratingly, “Alpha Bowers, this is the children’s school! How shameless of you!”

“I just can’t control myself.” Samuel slightly lifted his gaze as it deepened further while speaking in a husky voice, “You’re like a drug. I never thought you could be this addictive. You’re far more attractive compared to any women I’ve met.”

Why does this sound like bullshit?

However, when I saw the passionate emotions in his eyes, I realized that he was speaking the truth.

No, this is just the mate bond talking, he doesn’t really mean it.

I wore the hyper–realistic mask to conceal her identity, so I got used to people hating on me, showing their disgust just because of the mask I was wearing. Samuel, however, never once thought of me as ugly.

Chapter 73

I could then feel my heart trembling. I also felt a certain type of warmth, and that soothing feeling felt reassuring. It was the first time I ever felt that way.

I truly yearned for warmth like this, but I was afraid to be indulgent. I felt like Icarus, flying too close to the sun. I knew that my feelings would be the end of her.

I didn’t know how to reply to that, this was all just too much for me to handle.

I didn’t know how to face Samuel, so I could only panic as I turned and left in a hurry.

It took a long time for me to finally calm herself before walking back to the school to look for Sophia and Franklin.

When I passed by the teacher’s room, I saw Molly carrying a box in her hand as she walked out of the

room.

It looks like Samuel made good on his promise and Molly was asked to leave her post as the art teacher. Molly’s eyes were already red from crying too much, so seeing me now only further increased her rage as she gritted her teeth. “Why! Why did Samuel prioritize you instead of me?”

Hearing that, I suddenly thought of the kiss that Samuel planted on her and started to mumble, “Yeah, why? Is he blind?”

“You-” Molly stomped her feet and continued, “Don’t be too full of yourself! Both Sophia and Franklin’s mother must have been top–notch beauties, so there’s no way you’ll get a chance with Samuel, as well!”

“You think too much. I never thought of anything like that.”

“You-!”

“Don’t be a teacher if you plan to hook up with someone so shamelessly. Instead of lashing out at me, you should take a long, hard look at yourself. I think the world is somewhat fair, so efforts will be given their due recompense. Ask yourself this. What have you done for Samuel? So what if you like him?”

Molly was oozing with jealousy just now, I mean I could sense it, but hearing my words stunned her. She then looked at my eyes and she looked shocked but I couldn’t tell what she was thinking, all of a sudden, the bell goes off and there’s an announcement for the parents to gather in the sports area.

“I hope that you eventually do see the error of your ways, because karma is real.” I say to Molly before I turn around and walk away.

It took me a while but I finally found the sports area.

The previous class had ended. What came next was the family sports activities.

Both Sophia and Franklin went to the changing room excitedly to change into their sportswear, and even Samuel and I had to change as well.

I furrowed my brows and looked at Samuel as he passed me a white tracksuit. “I have to change too?”

“Sophia and Franklin never had the chance to attend these activities with their mother, and I don’t want to see them sad. Do you?” Samuel’s gaze darkened as he said that.

Samuel really knew what my weak spots were.

That was right. I couldn’t bear to see them sad.

I was very fond of both Sophia and Franklin, and I knew why, but a part of me wasn’t just ready to admit it.

but my heart

I didn’t even need to care for them so much since they were not related to me in any way, always melted when someone brought them up.

I then pursed my lips, took the clothes from Samuel and went to the changing room to get dressed.

He may have won this round, but I am only here for the kids and not him.
