A genuine man
Third Person’s POV
.
Immediately realization hit her like a train when she realized that she was the one who had called them to meet at their parent’s house. “Oh my god! Gia, Gina! You too got trapped in all this drama? Oh no! It’s all my fault! Now, Wyatt will try to hurt you too!”, She muttered in panic, noticing both of her sisters in her room. Everything happened so suddenly when she ran toward the washroom that she could smell her sister’s scent.
“Are you pregnant?”, Gia asked in shock.
Gina who was hearing her babbling narrowed her eyes and pondered about what she just spoke.
‘Hurt you too!’
But before Gina could have asked about it, Grace answered the question which Gia asked. “Yes. I am pregnant.”
Gia tightened her jaw in frustration and anger. “With that dog’s child?”, She asked again, her eyes focused on her belly.
“GIAA”, Grace raised her voice and glared at her younger sister. She hated how she insulted Zayden by calling the dog while insulting her by asking such a question. “Isn’t it obvious? What do you think I am?”, She replied, offended by her question.
“I am sorry.”, Gia whispered, knowing she shouldn’t have asked this question. She was indirectly questioning her character. “Does Zayden know about this child?”
Grace narrowed her eyes but still answered.
“No. I was about to tell him before all this happened.”
“That’s the best thing that ever happened.”
“What do you mean, Gia?”
“He will now mark his real mate as his Luna and then, we will convert you into a vampire when you will be dying because of the pain of rejection. And then…”
“Are you even hearing yourself? Zayden is mine and there is no way I am going to let him mark another woman. Not until I am alive. And I don’t need any life if Zayden is not there in it.”
“But...But didn’t you want to be free from him? Didn’t you want to be free of this forced marriage?”
“Gia! That situation was different. I never shared this with you guys but the truth is that I used to hate him. But not anymore. I like him...no, I love him! I am in love with him.”
“Grace! I think now you are not in your senses. He really has done something to you! He isn’t the right man for you. Okay, fine. For one moment, I can aside his real identity but you can’t change the fact that he is a criminal. Plus, this child that you are carrying, do you want your child to bear a criminal’s name as its father? People will laugh at your child as well as you. So, my sister, try to think deeper into this. Please, think rationally.”
That long speech made her speechless. The words about how her child will regard its father being a criminal scared her. She didn’t want it. She didn’t want her child to face this fate.
“You are right. I will talk to Zay about this once everything gets fine. He will surely understand.”
“What? You still want to be with him? He is…”, before she could continue, Grace, interrupted her.
“I know who he is, Gia! Don’t repeat again and again. And he didn’t become like this by choice. It is a miracle that he survived his childhood. You don’t know anything about his struggles. So, please don’t judge the book by its cover!”
Gia was speechless for a while. But then she regained her voice and tried to convince her again. “Grace! You don’t understand…”
“I understand everything, now. It’s you who have to understand the severity of the situation. We are trapped in our own house and we have to find a way to escape from here.
“Did he hurt you, Grace?”, Gina, her other sister, asked in a serious tone, observing her red cheek.
But Grace quickly dodged off her question by asking another question. “I don’t understand Wyatt’s motive behind trapping you both here! What is his reason to do so?”
She thought more about it.
Gina looked at Gia and signaled her to speak the truth. The truth is that she informed Wyatt about everything and even invited him to their house, to trap Grace from doing anything stupid. Also, she had further planned to convert Grace as a vampire so that she could choose Paul as her second chance mate.
Gina had warned Gia about everything but she listened to her. Now, she was just hoping that Grace would forgive them for their mistakes.
“Grace, we are not trapped. Nor are you.”, Gia finally mustered all the courage and said the truth.
“What? Then why are we here in this room and that jerk and his men have guarded our home? It sure isn’t a picnic!”
“We….especially I...I am with him.”
Silence!!!
“What?”, Grace whispered. not believing her words.
“I am helping Wyatt in getting his revenge from Zayden. I am trying to give you a life that you deserve, Grace! You deserve much better than that dog.”
This time, Grace couldn’t hold herself and slapped Gia as hard as she could. This time, her wolf was not at the surface but her human form was angry. “He is the man whom I love, Gia. So, better you call his name with respect. And if you are not able to understand my words then I am repeating it again. I love him! I can’t believe you are actually involved in this shit. How..how could you! You are my sister, I fought with Zayden for maintaining contact with you, even though he didn’t want me to keep any relation with vampires. But what did you both do? You both tried to ruin my happiness? I thought we were sisters...the one on whom I can rely forever. The one who would never hurt me. But you betrayed your own sister! I….”, Grace couldn’t speak anymore. Her heart was aching. Last night, she almost lost her husband and today, she lost her sisters. “Why did you do this?”
“I know what Zayden did with Sarah last night. So, I wanted to keep you away from him. Because just like other men, he is the same! They jump from one woman to another as soon as they get bored with the earlier one.”
“You’re really out of mind! If that’s what you think about men, then I doubt you met a genuine man! A man loves just once in life and he never gives into lust. Zayden is one of them. It would surprise you, that even being surrounded by his dirty business, I was his first, in all respects.”, She said proudly. Well, for her it was something to be proud of!
“Grace…”, Gia’s hand touched her shoulder and she immediately repulsed that touch.
“DON’T TOUCH ME!”, She shouted...really shouted. She was angry, and...hurt. “Get out you both. And don't ever show your face again. From this moment on, I don’t know you both and you both are nothing to me but strangers. Og, let me rephrase, you are a betrayer. I wish no one gets sisters like you both. I LOVE ZAYDEN. And even if I don’t survive this fight, I will still love him. I will always love him.”
There was a moment of silence. Both the sisters were too shocked after hearing her, while Grace’s heart was in too much pain to say more. She never thought that she would say something like this.
“I hate you both. I hate you for what you've done.”
More silence.
“Please , leave. I want to be alone.”, Grace ordered as more tears left her eyes.
“We are not leaving, Grace. But you are.”, Gina said, realizing her mistake. She was against Gia’s plan but didn’t do anything to stop her. But now, she would do what seemed right. She had the power of teleportation. She opened the portal in front of Grace and at the same time, Wyatt entered the room, as he had already read Gina’s mind.
