His Mate, His Girlfriend by Sunshine Princess

Chapter 55

Brooding
Ellis has been surprising me. I honestly thought the thrill of fatherhood would wear off, but it didn’t. He visited the kids when he could. He did school drop-offs and had meals with them. He took over Luis’ responsibilities in their lives, and now my brooding best friend was jealous.
He even replaced my name with his on the pick and drop-off board at their school. I’m surprised the pa para zzi haven’t published anything yet,” Luis pouted. We were eating breakfast at our restaurant. CC had the press in her pockets. That woman had so much power in the city, and no one would dare publish what she didn’t allow.
I’m sorry you’re feeling left out, baby,” I cooed.
” How dare he?!” Luis slammed his palm against the glass table, and
the customers in the restaurant glanced our way in worry. He was being dramatic about this whole thing. ” He thinks he can waltz in after five years and be the father of the year!”

Well, they live with you and not him,” I said. I was being extra gentle today because I knew he’d been stressing, especially now that his inner Lycan, Loki, was calling out to the woman he had a one-n stand with. He’d been looking for her, but she just vanished.
For how long, with how things are moving, they’ll just be spendi nights at his place,” he scoffed.
‘No, that won’t happen. Do you think I’d let my children near that viper, Charlotte?” I said. He knitted his eyebrows together in confusion.
“You don’t know,”
Know what?” I asked.
Charlotte doesn’t stay with Ellis, hun. The two live completely separate lives,” he informed me, and my heart pounded against my chest. Ellis didn’t reside with his mate? But why?
‘Because he doesn’t love her,’ My lycan, Vee, was quick to answer. She was giddy and eager like a child in a candy store. I must admit I felt a sudden way to hear this news. Was thrilled too? 2

How do you know that?” I asked.
‘I know everything about people around the twins- Which is Ellis, now
he’s my business,” he said casually. A smile curled on my lips.
11
Oh, you little – Sly woman. You’re excited about this,” he angled his head, pointing at me with his index slender finger.
‘No, I’m not. I have a boyfriend, and my CEO’s personal life is none of my business,” I expressed, heat creeping to my cheeks. I had no choice but to cover my cheeks with my hand. Luis smirked at me.
F uck, I hated that he knew me so well.

Stop giving me those eyes,” I groaned,
What eyes?” he smiled, giving me knowing eyes.
“The goofy smirk, and all,”
။
‘Oh, Love. Ellis, David…. Girl, you’re in trouble,” he was having to much fun.
“I’m with David, and I’m meeting his parents soon,” I informed quickly before his mind went somewhere else.
“Isn’t it a little early to meet the parents?” he questioned.

No, we are taking it slow, and this is the next natural thing,”
Have you f ucked him yet?” he asked, smirking at me. I drew in a breath and expelled.

Not yet,”
But you are attracted to him, right?”
Of course. He’s hot but whenever we start I just can’t,” I confessed. I could see David was injured every time I withdrew from him, but I couldn’t help it. Fear enveloped me, and I started to shake. It was just like how it happened in New York with Michael.
Maybe like me, your body just wants one person,”
“No. I will have to be with David sooner or later,” I firmed. It isn’t him you want to be with, it’s Ellis. A small voice inside me spoke. I changed the topic and asked about his business since he couldn’t get his nose out of mine.

How is the search for the mystery enchanting woman going?”
Search? Why would I search for her?” he played dumb, drinking his
coffee.
“I know you’re searching for her. I heard your phone call last night with a man asking about the ‘ Witch’,” I informed him. He sighed in
defeat,

“It was the man who owns the club we met,”
“What will you do when you see her again? Thank her for the b of your life?” I chuckled.
“I don’t know. Maybe if I see her, Loki will be pleased, and final can move on from that witch,” he was annoyed. I smiled at him a was brooding. Luis didn’t know it yet but he would fall hard for woman. Call it women’s intuition.
“So any leads on her whereabouts?”
#1
No, leads. This is the first time I’ve been unable to locate someon Da mn,”
I went to the office after my breakfast with Luis. He didn’t want me to leave, but I had so much work to do today. I focused on my job. I tried not to think about Ellis, but It’s all I did. His relationship with Charlotte was so complex. Why didn’t they stay together? Why didn’t they mark each other yet?
Ellis was the kind of man who loved loudly. His way of love was physical touch, but whenever I saw them together, they were distant. Not only by proximity but emotions.
I threw my pen against the wall in frustration. I was giving my ex, and his mate too much thought.
The door opened, and David walked in. He wore a smile on his lips.
Vee wasn’t too pleased to see him, and she snickered something
unintelligent. I put her, on time-out.
“You’re brooding,” David said softly. He took steps towards my desk.
Ellis, we -” I bit my tongue hard after that name escaped escaped my lips. David stopped in his tracks, his eyes were ferocious.

You’re brooding,” David said softly. He took steps towards my desk.
Ellis, we -” I bit my tongue hard after that name escaped escaped my
lips. David stopped in his tracks, his eyes were ferocious.
Ellis?” he scoffed, crossing his arms against my chest. I went to him instantly, holding his arms.
I’m sorry,” I apologized for calling him Ellis. David was heaving.
“I was thinking about him because of the kids, and his name left my lips,” I was rumbling my words now. I inhaled and said sincerely.
I’m so sorry, babe,” I said, kissing his lips to soothe him. He didn’t kiss me back. He pulled away from me.

‘I understand,” he said quietly. He was hurt. We stayed silent for a
few minutes.
David raised his fingers, caressed my jaw softly, and kissed my forehead. He escorted me back to my seat, and he sat on top of my
desk. We were close.
“I wanted to talk to you about something, but I don’t know if I now,” he told me.
“No, please tell me,” I encouraged.

It’s a business proposal. Can we do it tomorrow over dinner?” he asked, and I raised my eyebrows.

Business. Should I worry?”

No, my love. Not at all,” he smiled warmly at me, kissing my hand
still worried a bit. I understood he hated working under Ellis.

Okay. When?”
Tomorrow?” Tomorrow was Saturday, and we were to go to CC’s manor for brunch.
No. I can’t. CC invited us to her home,” I informed him. He had a faraway look in his eyes. I held his hand, and his gaze traveled back
to me.
Are you going?”
“Yes, I couldn’t deny Christina Carter. She properly wants to meet the
