Wyatt Staunton
Third Person’s POV
.
Two days later!!
“I will miss you, Grace!”, Allison said as she hugged her dearly.
“Me too!”, Grace replied with similar emotions. Finally, it was the day when Allison was going to start a new chapter of her life with Alpha Craig, and Grace could wish for nothing but a loving and supporting nature from her husband for her. She was lucky that Zayden was a full package of it.
“Don’t you dare to cry, sweetheart!”, Zayden ordered, on which he received a light slap on his arm for ordering her on these things in front of everyone but thankfully everyone took this normally.
She knew even Zayden was feeling bad on his sister’s departure but he was not letting his emotions overpower him.
Once Allison left, even Sarah reluctantly left the packhouse and Zayden personally made sure of this.
“Where are you going?”, She asked when she saw her husband leaving.
“Important work, sweetheart. I will be back by the time of dinner. And yes, pack your bags, we will be leaving for our home tomorrow morning, okay?”
“Okay.”, She agreed reluctantly, knowing she was going to get bored back in that house again. She didn’t want to go there but she also knew that she cannot whine like a child.
Once Zayden left, Grace spent her remaining time with the children of packhouse, playing various silly games with them and then women of the packhouse, listening to their love stories, and learning more about werewolves. She didn’t realize that it was already 8 PM and she had to pack their bags as well. So, she excused herself and went to her room to pack the bags.
After an hour,
“Phew..Everything is packed.”, She talked with herself and then checked with time. “Zayden should be here by now. No problem, till the time he is here, I will check Allison’s room. What if she would have forgotten to take any of her important things with her.”
Grace entered Allison’s room and found everything properly arranged. She checked the drawers one by one and found nothing important which she could take with herself so that she could give Allison later, once they met.
She then opened the wardrobe and found a lot of Allison’s clothes in them but before Grace would have wondered what she had to do with Allison’s clothes, she found her answer.
‘Grace, these clothes are all new. Please give them to charity.’
Grace smiled and started taking out all of her clothes carefully. Suddenly, a blue diary fell from her blue dress.
‘A diary?’, Grace kept it aside, thinking it's bad manners to read someone else's diary. But then, she was having a hard time resting herself from reading it, wondering what all things and secrets Allison would have hidden in it.
‘Memories 1996-2020’, the front of the diary read.
Nothing could go wrong by reading the diary of the previous year, right?
Excited, she sat on the bed and took the diary on her lap. A smile came on her lips as she thought., she got the key to tease her sister-in-law. She opened the first page and was met with a beautiful photograph of Allison who was sitting near the river or lake and smiling and looking at the sun. Grace smiled just by looking at the picture.
She turned to the next page and was met with a black and white photograph of a family. She immediately recognized Zayden in the photo. There was a man who appeared to be in his early forties, a woman, who appeared to be in her late thirties, a small girl child who looked like five or six, and two boys of almost the same age of fifteen or sixteen.
Grace was not sure but she felt like she had seen this man and the woman, but where?
As for now, she didn’t stress on her mind thinking about that question, she concluded the couple were Zayden’s and Allison’s parents and the little girl was Allison. But who was the other boy? Did Zayden have twins? She wondered after reading the footnote.
‘Mom, dad and my two darling brothers and me.’, Allison had written.
“Two brothers?”, Grace muttered in confusion.
‘I don’t have a brother.’, She recalled Zayden telling her a long time back.
“If he said that he didn't have any brother then why did Ally write this?....or Zayden lied to me?”, Grace asked that question herself but didn’t get any answer.
She quickly flipped the next page to find the truth.
‘If they really have another brother, then there must be some other photos of him. Or maybe that brother is dead, which is why Zayden didn’t tell me anything nor did Ally.’ She thought.
After that, there were a lot of Allison’s photos of different ages, in different types of fancy dresses and in various types of places.
After approx hundreds of pages later, she found a picture in which stood the two brothers, wearing dresses like pirates. They must be teenagers then, she concluded. She recognized Zayden but looking at the other boy closely, she felt as if she had seen him before.
The other boy looked familiar to her, but she couldn’t point a finger at where she had seen him.
Grace again turned approx fifty pages hastily to find more about the other boy and finally, she got that page. There were two different photos of the man instead of one photo having two boys. One was a very recent photo of Zayden that looked like talking to someone on mobile in his three-piece suit and with sunglasses on. Grace had to admit that her husband looked hot like always. Allison had also written his name at the bottom of the page in beautiful handwriting.
Her eyes fell upon the next photograph, which was more like a drawing cum photo, and she was stunned as she saw the grown-up photograph of the other boy. This man was wearing a black tux with a wide smile on his face. He had the dimples on cheeks, dimples that she recognized immediately.
‘He is the one I met in the club. This...this means he knew that I was his brother’s wife from the beginning. If yes, then why was he pretending like he knew nothing?’, She murmured to herself.
Looking down at the page, she was met with the name of Zayden’s other brother.
‘Brother Wyatt’, Was written beautifully.
‘Wyatt! Wyatt Staunton.’ Grace now recalled his name.
