CHAPTER 22
MONTANA'S POV
I had no idea why I was feeling hurt but I was feeling like my kids now preferred their precious Alpha Lincoln to me.
Yes yes, I am happy that they are so happy and they will get to experience a father figure in their life for a few months, but what about me? I'm I so easily, ignored, forgotten, replaced, and uncared for? What about me?
Everyone seems to be finding someone they love and care for but no one seems to find me. It is just like I put so much effort and I am still worthless and of no value.
I know I should not be upset with my kids cause they are just children but still I could not stop having that feeling that I was being replaced, especially by the man I wanted to give me attention.
It was like they were now on his side and not mine, "Arghhhh", I slammed my bedroom door and sat on the bed, "What is wrong with me?", I asked myself, rubbing my face.
It is like I have people around me but still, I am so lonely.
"Ughh who the hell is it again", I groaned as I heard knocks on my door, I opened it to see Alpha Lincoln.
I stood straight and averted his gaze, "Alpha."
"The kids wanted to know if you are okay. They feel like you were a bit sad", he said to me.
"Well why did they not come to check on me themselves", I eyed the ground and whispered.
"What did you say?", Lincoln asked.
Oh Moon Goddess, I had not realized I thought that aloud, "Nothing Alpha, please let them know that they do not need to worry about me and I am fine."
I know I may be petty but whatever. They should stick to their Alpha Lincoln.
Alpha Lincoln hummed.
"If there is nothing else Alpha, can I go to bed?", I asked him, being respectful, as I began shutting the door but he put his hand out to stop me.
"I just wanted to apologize for earlier today, I never intended to leave you there for a long so I do hope you accept my apology, I apologize Montana", And after he said that he left.
"WHAT JUST HAPPENED??!! AND WHY DID HE LEAVE SO FAST", I put my head out and peeped, watching his back. He could not even wait for me to respond.
But still, my heart started beating, his apology sounded sincere and maybe I could let this slide since he apologized and sounded a bit worried. I hope I was not exaggerating about the worried part but who cares?
I laid down on the bed, smiling softly as I remembered his apology over and over and over and over again. For a guy like him, I am sure that was hard for him to say but he still did it for me. Is that a sign?
A knock came again on my door, and I rushed to open up, thinking maybe he had forgotten to tell me something but to my surprise it was Victoria and well I was still happy to see her as we hugged each other, "Are you really okay?? You do not look okay to me", She started asking and inquiring, "I know something is going on, tell me, I will talk to Lincoln and-",
"And what Victoria?", I chuckled, "I am sure you already spoke to him and by the looks of things, I do not think it went well on the speaking about my part."
"Well, that's true", then she brought out some snacks from the bag she carried, "I could not let you sulk all by yourself my babbyyyyy", Victoria squealed and I laughed wholeheartedly, she was something else.
"I am not going to sulk, before you even came in, I was about to get into my delulu mode for real. Alpha Lincoln came and he apologized to me about earlier and-", Victoria did not even let me finish as she squealed again.
"He apologized????!!!",
"Yes he did", I smiled at her, "So I guess it is okay now."
"Well that is greatt but still we got snacks and ice cream!!!!", Victoria exclaimed and I also joined her in being happy, forgetting about my worries.
We set up my laptop and played a movie while munching on our junk. It was funnn, like a girl's movie night. She even slept before me and I cleaned up everything, making her comfortable in her position as I lay there too.
Most times, having someone who can make you forget about your worries and pain, was a blessing. She was my best friend, my blessing.
I smiled once more before sleeping off.
The next morning, I woke up again with knocks and yells from my kids, "Mummmyyy, open up", and then when I heard Zane's voice, I snarled softly and eyed the door. I was not going to open the door for them.
When I even noticed the door was locked, I rushed to it and locked it, "Mum??", and who I'm guessing is Zendaya twisted the knob to open the door but now it was locked. Served them right, "Mum did you lock the door? Mummy?", nope I decided not to be moved by that tone where they are sad.
But where is Victoria? I checked around. I guess she might have left early.
And then I saw a note that said, "Sorry Bestieee, I had some urgent work to do and I had to rush to do it, you seemed really tired and so I did not want to wake you. Love yaaa mwahh", as I finished reading the note, I smiled.
Another new day. What plans do I have now?
I did my morning routine, dressed in something comfy cause I will probably be staying indoors or around the pack today.
The knocks from my kids on my room door still came but soon enough I heard nothing, I guess they were tired and left. Good and Better for them. Hmph!
