Chapter 64
“I’m sure she’s alright Christie whispered to me for what felt like the the thirtieth time in the last half an hour,
But just like the first time that she had said the comforting words to me, they had absolutely no effect on me. I was restless mess and the nerves that were bubbling in my stomach. reatened to create a hole within it
I took my bottom lips into my mouth and began worrying it. Ad habit I had when I was extremely nervous and even scared.
Jessy had not been away from me for that long, but I couldn’t get myself to concentrate on anything else, except the fact that my baby was not by my side and anything could be happening to her right now.
The entire situation that surrounded the missing picture was messy but I knew that something had happened to my baby while I was away the previous night and guilt ate at my stomach
Sighing heavily. I moved from the stool that I was currently perched on and proceeded to move out of the kitchen, ignoring Christie’s question of where I was going.
I needed to be close to her. I know that the Alpha had instructed me to wait downstairs but I just couldn’t anymore. Maybe if I were closer to my daughter, even if I had to stand outside his office, then I would feel better and my stomach could stop threatening to offload it’s contents.
The moment I got out of the kitchen, two familiar scents hit met once and it stopped me completely in my tracks.
Jessy and the Alpha were supposed to be upstairs, in his office.
How come I could scent them in the living area? I moved in the direction just in time to see Jessy wrap her arms around
him
It felt like I couldn’t breathe and even from my position I could see the Alpha stiffen in his spot, before his arms slowly wrapped around her in a hug
The sight before me was unlike anything that I had ever experienced before and as a result when the slight gasp escaped from my lips, it surprised even myself.
The moment the hug broke, Jessy bounced over to where I was stood and her new attitude stunned me. She offered me a small smile and although I could see some tears shining in her eyes she looked happier than she had been all through the day and the realization caused me to return an even bigger smil
“Hungee mommy.” Jessy called out to me and I nodded my head in response.
Throwing one last look at the Alpha before turning around to exit the room with Jessy in tow. The kitchen was completely empty when we walked into it and I was thankful for that, it gave me the chance to think without distractions.
“What do you want to eat babe?” I asked her softly.
“Omee.”
I nodded my head in understanding. No matter how much I tried in the past, Jessy just never seemed to get the pronunciation of oatmeal right
Some times she would do better and actually pronounce the meal part of the word but other times, like right now, she would just pronounce whatever she felt like.

Chapter 64
G
It’s not like I had given up on trying to correct her but my mind was clouded up with so many lights that I was beginning to loose foc
Once we were inside the kitchen and I began to make Jessy oatmeal, I let my thoughts run again.
The image I had just witnessed of Jessy and the Alpha was ingraded into my mind forever. My chest was still burning even when the entire thing had happened more than thirty minutes ligo
“Freya?” I turned my head to the door way and I was met with Zor’s frame leaning against the door. She had a weird look on her face and it unsettled me.
“Are you okay?” I asked and Zoe nodded her head in response but she moved fully into the room, looking straight to Jessy with what looked like hurt shining in her eyes.
Jessy had her head bowed but even from my position I could see my daughters lips wobbling as though she were trying hard
not to cry.
“Jessy. What’s the problem?” Zoe asked and Jessy flinched a little before shaking her head softly.
Jessy looked in my direction and I immediately recognized the look in her eyes. It was the look she gave me when she wanted me to help her with something. I didn’t know what it was this time but all I knew was that Zoe was making my child uncomfortable.
“Is everything alright?” I asked Zoe.
Yes, it is. I just have a feeling Jessy hates me and I’m not sure why.” Zoe responded with a certain sadness to her tone and a sigh in her words.
I squinted my eyes in confusion.
