44 Secrets and Lies
Tia.
The breakfast table became quiet when Luke, Caleb, and Alpha Aesop left. Monica had a permanent bitch look on her face, and it was directed at me. Stacy was too worried about her blackmailer to care, and pregnant Kimberly smiled at me while she picked the fruits on her plate.
“How is your holiday home, Tia?” Kimberly finally asked me, and I smiled at her. “It is nice and quiet. Just us,” I said, and she smiled.
“I envy that. Hopefully, Caleb will get over you, and we can move on,” she said with sincerity, and I felt my heart break. I did not like this girl initially. She had taken my crush away from me, and I hated her bitchy behaviour, but I understood her pain. I have never been pregnant before, but if I were, I would want the father of my child to care for me, especially when he is single and we dated. Her case was very different from Elisabeth’s.
“He will. I think he already has,” I told her, and she smiled and shook her head. “Caleb is afraid of Luke; if not, he would have acted out his intentions. He still looks at you the same. The way he looked at you in the academy, the same way he looks at you when you go out together,” she said, tears welling up in her eyes. “He didn’t fancy me then,” I said because I knew he didn’t. “On the contrary, Tia. Caleb had liked you since you were fifteen. Don’t say you do not know. Was that not why you dumped your studies and joined the academy?” Stacy said blandly, “His love was true, but yours was shallow, and that was why you moved on quickly. See you with Luke as if Caleb never happened.” She said, and I could not believe this woman.
“Honestly, Luna Stacy. I can’t believe you. Why shouldn’t I move on? You wanted me out of your son’s life, forced alpha Aesop to purchase me for Luke.” I said, and Kimberly gasped.
“Yes, Kimberly, I was bought for Luke. My parents had no choice but to sell. It was either that or rogue status,” I said to Kimberly. “I had to adjust Luna Stacy, and in doing so, I fell in love. Instead of being miserable, I fell in love, so I do not understand. Maybe if you have left well enough alone, Kimberly will not be pregnant and stuck here unloved.” I said, and I could not finish the sentence because Stacy’s actions had brought me, great love.. “Finish the sentence Tia,” Stacy said, waiting for the other part, so I took a deep breath. “I am also grateful for your action because it gave me true love,” I said, and she laughed.
“That wasn’t what you were going to say, Tia. If I had not intervened, you would have been with Caleb,” She corrected, and I shook my head.
“Caleb and I went to the academy. We spent every day together for four years, and he never asked me out. He never showed he cared. If you hadn’t intervened, I would have ended up with someone else but not Caleb,” I said, and Caleb approached us at that moment.

First, she didn’t want me with her son because I had no money. She antagonised me because Caleb was hung up on me and refused to move on with Kimberly, which made her relationship with Timothy Miles rocky. After everything, I will be Luna
