#Chapter 118: A Choice to Make

Moana

The morning after I finally revealed the truth about my lineage to Edrick, I thought that everything would finally be okay. I thought that maybe, we could finally be together without any issues now that he knew that I was a werewolf; or, at the very least, I thought that his family would hate me a little less.

But as it turned out, things rarely ever happened so easily.

I had spent the past two nights sleeping in Edrick’s room again. It seemed that our sleeping arrangement went back to the way it was before — only now, there were fewer barriers between us. When I woke up, the curtains were open to allow sunshine to come in. Edrick was already gone for work, so I laid in bed for a few minutes and looked at my phone while I woke up.

However, my eyes shot wide open when I saw the headline of an article with a picture of Edrick and I going into the hospital from the day that I was attacked by the rogues. Neither of us were wearing masks. As I read the headline, I felt my heart sink.

“WERECORP CEO SEEN WITH MYSTERY WOMAN ONCE MORE,” the headline read. Below it was an entire article of speculation on who I was and why I was going to the hospital with Edrick. Finally, at the end, the article seemed to hit the nail on the head: that I was the mother of an illegitimate child, and that Edrick was the father.

But that wasn’t all. If that had been it, I would have been able to move on. Instead, there was a second article; this time, the article had a photograph of Edrick and Kelly together. It wasn’t a paparazzi photo like the first one, but rather a family photo that appeared as though it had been taken at least a year or two prior. The article headline read: “WERECORP CEO, EDRICK MORGAN, ENGAGED?”
