CHAPTER 87
MONTANA'S POV
I sang softly and quietly as I reached inside the mansion. I think I am feeling quite sleepy.
Furthermore, I yawned, rubbing my face.
"How was your outing?"
I got startled when Lincoln came out of nowhere and whispered that question in my ear.
I rolled my eyes, "what is it to you?"
"It is not wrong to want to know where my wife has been. Is it?", he asked with a raised brow.
"Since when am I your wife?"
"Since we got married, contract or no contract, you are still my wife and mate."
I stopped and turned to face him, "I thought you did not want me?"
"You thought wrong, wifey."
I was going to smile, but I bit my tongue hard. More pain, no smiling.
"Sorry, a sec," he said as he went quiet. It seemed like a message was being sent to him, through the mind link.
I had no desire to wait and turned to leave, but I was pulled back.
"What is it?", I asked tiredly, "I believe you have something to do and I, on the other hand, is very sleepy and need a nap."
"I shall let you get your nap then", He came close, brushed my hair off my face and kissed my forehead softly, "Sleep well love."
What was he trying to do?
Yet again I wanted to say something, but he did not let me as he was soon out of sight.
Unbelievable.
Steals my breath away and disappears, not giving me a chance to process anything.
A few weeks have passed and so far, things have been going very well between Lincoln and me. His whole wanting my attention and getting nervous was adorable.
I never knew a man like himself could be that nervous and cute, although I think that only happens to me.
I love it, makes me feel more special. Although I am still making it hard for him because that is how he made it hard for me, but I have forgiven him.
Just want to make him suffer a little before I let him know that I still have something for him, I still love him.
And on the other hand, for Finn, I think we are also good, but he has been acting a bit weird lately and being around him sometimes now makes me feel uncomfortable.
Like when we went out to see a movie and next thing his hand was on my thighs, I turned and looked at him, but he pretended like he did not know what had happened, "Finn?"
I literally have no idea, how his hands got there.
"Yes?", he answered, "Do you like it?"
I was stunned to even speak.
"The movie? Yes," I answered, "But your hands where they should not be, doing what they should not do? No, I do not like it."
I got up immediately. This was the height of it. He had been doing this a lot lately, and I was done feeling bad.
Because I would feel guilty and then ignore all his advances, making excuses for him like he just wanted closure to heal and forget or kill his feelings for me.
But I suppose he is taking advantage of my good heart and going in for more, it was getting really annoying.
I am just so tired of feeling bad and explaining to him why we cannot be an item. And every time, he keeps saying he understands and will respect my decision, but does the complete opposite.
It is like he says what I want to hear at that time and does whatever he wishes to do later.
I was done.
I got up and left the cinema, he can watch his movie by himself.
"Montana!", I heard him calling out to me, but I did not stop.
I rushed to my ride which was already waiting for me, quickly got in and left.
Next thing, my phone started ringing, but I did not pick. I even had to switch off my phone throughout that night because Finn did not just stop calling.
Even after I answered one of the calls and told him I would rather not speak to him at the moment, then ended it right after. He still kept calling and gosh, so annoying and frustrating.
Even the next day, same thing, until the extent he came to the pack to look for me.
Lincoln was actually the one who stopped him because he knew I did not want to speak to Finn, the way I was acting and all that, "She us a bit occupied with me right now, maybe later you guys can plan or something like you always do."
"I want to see her now please, it is very important", Finn pushed on. I could hear them from where I hid in the lobby.
"Alpha Finn, I suggest you respect my decision and leave at once. My wife would reach out to you when she can", Lincoln finally said.
I bet it was satisfying for Lincoln, and he had always wanted to do that. If it were before, I would not want Lincoln speaking to Finn like that as Finn is my friend, but right now, I am loving the way Lincoln spoke to him.
"Alright", Finn nodded and finally left.
Since that day, until now, I have not gotten a text or call from Finn. I was so grateful about that, but I always felt like someone was watching me.
Both inside and outside the pack. It was like someone was close, but anytime I turned back, no one was there.
I did not want Finn and I to end this way, but I guess it was the right thing to give him some space before things gets out of hands, plus, I did not want to make things worse.
Until one faithful night when I heard a scream.
I burst out of my room door, on the very familiar voice that screamed.
Lincoln also coming out of his, Victoria too.
"What happened?", I asked, running over to the twin's room, where they were already gathered.
I could feel it, that sad feeling it lingered all around, "Let me through," I said to Victoria, pushing through and entering inside the room.
Blood…So much Blood, it was Zendaya's blood, on her bed, the floor, signs of her struggling, "Where is she?", I tried to calm myself down, but it was not working.
I screamed loudly out of pain and fear, most especially fear,
"WHERE IS MY DAUGHTER????!!!!"
