Their Secret Obsession by Pippa Moon

Chapter 0213

Lottie POV

"I am still not ruling anything out." Sage growled as she simmered down to listen to Kane as he explained how he thought making people believe he and Knox had cheated on me was a good idea, but he made it very clear it was not because they wanted to, but because Connie, for all intents and purposes was apparently their 'mate' too.

"I feel sick." I grumbled, "And it's not morning sickness either." I added as I fought the urge to vomit at the idea of her anywhere either of them.

"And people will buy this crap? Because only yesterday you were showing me off at the damn ball, proclaiming there was no one else for you!" I questioned, rolling my bottom lip to keep the tears I felt bubbling inside.

"After the scene Havoc caused, I am not sure people will remember much of our declaration, just the events that followed." Kane offered as he gave Knox an uneasy shrug. "Sorry buddy, but it is true."

"I will remember it, she looked beautiful. I will never forget the way you looked in Ma's dress, the blush on your cheeks and the fulfilment hiding behind your nervous smile. Neither will I forget the feeling of pride, seeing you on my arm." Knox whispered, and despite the anger I felt towards them both right now, a smile curled the corner of my lips.

"Well, we will have to make sure they do forget and believe us." Kane sighed, his face twisting with pain as he looked at his brother, who dropped his eyes. Seeing the pain in Knox's face mirroring his brothers, I knew this plan sucked for me, but it was clearly no picnic for them either.

"OK, so say this goes ahead, and you manage to not only fool Connie but also the pack, your parents and my Brother.. You manage to make them think that I have been discarded because you have both found another mate. One that you want more..." I started to say, but paused to hold my hand up to Kane, who was about to talk. Twisting my lips to keep my voice even, I continued slowly.
