Chapter 149

Four days have passed since Tatum came bearing gifts but everyday for those four days, Leia finds herself staring at the house opposite her whenever she comes out from or goes into her house, wondering when he's going to spring up on her again but fortunately he has never shown up. She really doesn't want to see him again and hopes he will take the hint and stay away from her and their child, no. Her child.

"Mama, why can't I go with you?" Amara asks Leila as Leila touches her face with some light makeup at her dresser.

It's the first day of her mother's case in court and she cannot take Amara with her. Three days ago, her mother was moved from house arrest and placed under custody.

She wants to think Tatum has nothing to do with it but then, it's his pack that has accused an innocent woman of murdering her mate and husband.

"Because....kids are not allowed where we are going," Kelvin answers from behind Leila, sitting on her bed and going through his files.

Amara frowns. "Well, can I go to the playground?"

Leila pauses, dropping her brush on the dresser and she turns to Amara fully. It's the umpteenth time that Amara is mentioning going to the playground, specifically so she can see Tatum and she feels very uncomfortable with the idea. "Your Aunty Amanda is on her way here, you guys can have all the fun you want, you miss her, don't you?" She says with a patronising smile.

"Cool," Amara replies, "Aunty Amanda will take me to the playground. I know Uncle Alpha will be there, the three of us will have fun and I haven't thanked him for my doll house."
