Chapter 3

However, she says nothing and turns. She is not going to let this bitter women come between her and her best friend. They are Carmela's friends, and they are picking on her on purpose because Carmela sacrificed herself for her. She has no position to defend herself.

As she heads for the bathroom to get a mob, Edna shrieks behind her: "Who are you leaving this mess to?! Get the shards first! It could hurt someone, jeez!"

Leila nods and kneels to pick up the bigger ones with panicking hands, and it is at this moment, the door opens after a short knock, and Leila looks up with the shards cupped in her palm, only to meet the Alpha's cold eyes. "What are you doing?" He notices Leila and instantly, a frown crawls onto his handsome face.

"Alpha!" Carmela jumps off the bed and runs to the Alpha, throwing her arms around his neck like when they were kids, "Can I please, please leave the hospital now? Pleaseeee."

Her cute tone got a light laugh out of the Alpha and he pats her on her waist to get her off.

"Twenty now, and you are still acting like a little girl."

"You should know.....you are the one who spoiled me-ouch!" Carmela's big smile is replaced by a sudden frown as she lifts her foot in pain.

"Careful!" Alpha Tatum picks her up into his arms, noticing the shards left on the floor. His unfriendly eyes glances around and lands on Leila.

Her heart shrinks in fear and she speeds up the picking, using her palm to wipe the floor in case she missed any, leaving several cuts which hurt her but not as much as seeing her husband carrying another woman in his arms. "What happened?!" The Alpha demands again, still at Leila this time when she is secretly checking her hands.

"It's not her fault..." Carmela pulls Alpha Tatum's sleeve timidly. And at her words, the Alpha narrows his eyes, understanding that Leila is the one who broke the cup.
