Chapter 9
Hardin’s POV
The moment those words left his mouth, my hands acted out of impulse, and I threw a heavy punch right at his face, I think I might have broken his nose because he was bleeding.
“Hardin ” Kayla immediately held me back, my body was vibrating with anger, who does this man think he is? How dare he lay
such accusations on me?
“He knows I am telling the truth, that’s why he is so mad” he continued, his attention fixed on Kayla who seemed to be listening. “Kayla this man is a fraud, please come
back to me”
Kayla released her grip on me slowly, even though she was struggling to believe what he said I think a part of her had thought of it, I wish she knew the reason for my actions so she would understand.

“Vincent please leave, you are causing a scene” she managed to say but Vincent was adamant, “I am sorry Hardin, I should have told you about my past, I swear I had cut ties with him_”
“Shhh” I gestured, and in a matter of seconds my lips found hers, I could see the surprise written on her face as I kissed her passionately for the first time, I have been dying to do this for the longest time.
I pulled away after a hot minutes and turned to Vincent who looked as shocked as ever “For your own sake I would advise you to leave immediately, I am sure you know my family but I am not sure you know what I am capable of…” I threatened and he seemed shaken by my threat and he left immediately.
After that, I turned to Kayla who had already gone to change out of her wedding dress. “I am no longer in the mood, let’s go home,” she said as she walked past me.
I knew she was bothered about what

Vincent said and I want to clear things up
but I don’t think here is the right place to do that. Vincent had already caused a
scene.
Our drive home was quiet, Kayla barely said a word to me, the moment we got into the house, she said. “I need an explanation, Hardin!”
“You haven’t touched me since we got married but the moment Vincent accused you of being gay you kissed me…what are you trying to approve? Why didn’t you tell me_”
“You looked really good in that wedding dress” I cut her off with a smile on my face.
“What are you talking about?”
“Do you know I designed that dress myself? And I named it Omega…” I said as I drew her closer to me. “I named it after the girl who saved my life fifteen years ago”
Kayla was still confused so I continued. “She was the most beautiful girl I have ever

Kayla’s face lit up in realization. “You? But you were…you weren’t_”
“I wasn’t the son of Alpha Nicklaus…yes I was adopted…” I said as the memories came rushing back.
My mother was a loyal maid who worked for Alpha Nicklaus, she was loyal to the extent that she drank a poison meant to kill him, thereby saving his life, and in return, he promised to take me in as his son.

“Yes, Kayla… I have loved you since that day… I tried looking for you but I couldn’t find you and when I did it was a little too late”

reason I stayed away from girls because no one was her.
“I was filled with joy when I saw your picture in the list of women I was asked to choose from…I know you might not feel the same for me but please give me a chance to prove my love for you”
“Hardin just shut up and kiss me already,” Kayla said with a smile on her face.
