#2 Chapter 71
Chapter 71.
“And what is happening here?” Alpha Damien Blackhood questioned as he entered the triplets room, only to meet them in an heated conversation with the maids. “What is their relationship with the maids?” He questioned himself.
“Oh dad, you are here. What are you doing here dad?” Annabelle asked foolishly.
“I thought we made a deal to go out together in this afternoon, then why am I sensing the weariness and sluggishness here?” Damien asked them with a slight frown.
“You are done with your job here, please leave and thank you.” Xander told the maids and they both bowed to them all in the room.
“You’re welcome young alphas.” The ladies quickly left.
“Dad, we are not going out with you again, in fact, we don’t want to go out with you forever.” Annabelle said, spreading her hands allover to show how serious she was and Damien stared at her in confusion.
“Not forever Annabelle, but for now till further notice when dad do the requirements.” Xander corrected Annabelle and Damien knew immediately that it was a planned work and he had promised himself that he won’t read their minds anymore, they need some privacy.
“Is this your deal? You planned this right? You successfully turned their backs at me right.” Damien lamented as he accused Katherine.
“You’re right alpha, I used our triplets code and brought them to myself and as you can see, you, mom and me are not in same accord, so it’s fair.” Katherine said nonchalantly.
“What do you guys want from me?” He asked them in frustration. He has not feel so mad in a while and these kids of his have successfully brought out more emotions in him than required.
“Just leave us for now till we think of what we want from you.” Katherine told him.
“Please kids forgive your daddy huh? I know I might have wrong you but forgive me okay?” Damien said with a pathetic face that Xander and Annabelle ran to hug him immediately.Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
“Traitors!” Katherine thought glaring at the both of them.
“I know you both love me, can we go to the outing now?” Damien asked them sweetly.
“No dad, we can’t go.” Annabelle said and gently disengaged from the hug. Inasmuch as she badly wanted to go, she can’t because her siblings also needed her for their plans to be a success and besides, there was still plenty of time to go for outings and vacations, all they needed was their parents peace among themselves.
“They cannot go with you anymore, we want to spend the day with mom and we will be sleeping in her room when it’s night and please alpha, we don’t want your presence there because I know that you will be thinking that you will stay in the room with us, so please, you have taken part of mom’s love in our hearts and we want our mom too. So we will be in her room in the next minute if you excuse us.” Katherine said.
“She is right dad, you need us around but mom needs us more. Look, you’re having a lot of people by your side around here but mom has no one but us. Our mom is beautiful but if she keeps on being lonely, she will become ugly like that woman I saw.” Xander said and the last part of his sentence was filled with distaste.
“Come on dad, we have to start going, it’s more fun with mom than to go outing.” Annabelle missed their days with Luna, all of them did and they were ready to create more moments with her but they thought, “The next moment we will be creating with mom, dad will to be there. We don’t want mom to be scared of him again but rather loves him.”
“If you really want to spend the time with your mom, you are free to go.” Damien said. Though he badly wanted to take them out with him but he didn’t want them to see him as a bad and selfish dad, so he concluded to leave them for their mother.
“Thank you dad.” Annabelle and Xander hugged Damien and they both dashed out of their room, heading to Luna’s room but Katherine stayed behind.
“I know you will think that I am evil and wicked and of course you are right.” Damien told her when he saw that she was still sitting down quietly, not making any attempts to leave her bed.
“You don’t know what I think of you alpha, I see you just the way my siblings do but the only thing tinting your image in my sight is that mom and you are not together like the way we thought it will be and it is all your fault. I stayed behind because I want you to see what I’m talking about, come with me.” Katherine led the way to Luna’s room and Damien followed her like an obedient servant.
“What do you want me to see?” Damien asked her when they got to Luna’s doorstep.
“Hold on.” Katherine gently opened the door and peeped in, she saw how Luna was happily discussing with Xander and Annabelle who were beaming with smiles too. “Here.” She created way for Damien to look.
“What?” He asked her still peeping, he saw nothing different.
“Check very well, do you see the smile on mom’s face?”
“Yes.” Damien replied. Inasmuch as he wanted to deny it, he can’t, it was too glaring.
“Do you see the smiles on Xander and Annabelle’s faces too? Have you ever see that kind of smile on their faces?”
Damien looked and at that time, Luna said something and they three laughed that they rolled on the bed and Damien gently shut the door back. “No, I haven’t.” He replied to Katherine’s question.
“Then, I’m sure you will now understand that I don’t hate you, I only hate what your presence did to our mom, I only hate it that we thought you will bring more smiles on our faces but you rather took our smiles away.” Katherine told Damien sadly and he became weak instantly that he had to support himself with the wall.
“I’m sorry.” He apologized meekly.
“No amount of sorry can right this things and trust me, you don’t want Xander and Annabelle to see things the way I do, they are worse than me, you have to right your wrongs, not to just say sorry.” Katherine stated and walked into the room, leaving Damien outside to his thoughts.
“It’s not my fault, I can’t just help it. I want no one to be close to me, neither do I want anyone to take Marisol’s place in my heart, so, it’s not my fault.” He peeped from the door again to stared at them all, and by then Katherine had joined the crew and she was having a beautiful smile on her face, the type that Damien had not seen before and even Drac was happily wagging it tail.
“This is the type of family I want but I’m sorry, I can’t have it.” He thought and left the door post.
A shadow left the place too immediately Damien left.
