Replacement Bride for the Alpha of the North - Chapter 174

Chapter 174: WE SHOULD SPEND MORE TIME
The ships had been here for three days, they only waited a perfect opportunity to dock at the harbor and alpha Tony’s impulsiveness handed that said opportunity in a silver platter.

“I only one woman.”

“Dawn, isn’t it?” Archie arched his brows at him. “You can have any woman, but you only wanted her.”

“She is my destined mate. She is mine.”

“You must have gone into insanity by now.”

“Probably.”

It was pathetic of Blake, because he was the epitome of someone, who only learned the value of something when they lost it and right now, Blake had to take a long, arduous journey to get back what initially belonged to him.

“Do you know that Dawn’s mother hailed from the west?”

Blake turned his head, he had never heard this information before. “From the west?” The previous luna died when he was little and there were not many stories about her, more so, people were not really curious about her background, since she didn’t interact much with the pack member, Dawn must have taken after her.

“The west?” Archie replied happily because Blake didn’t know this information. “She was a spy, but turned out to be a traitor because she met her destined mate there.” He guffawed loudly when he said the next word. “That must be her karma for betraying our sect that her mate that she loved so much, someone that she sacrificed everything for, betrayed her.”

This was a shocking revelation for Blake.

Rye and Lucia’s face were unreadable as they listened to their conversation and watched as the ships drew near.

“Do you believe in karma, Blake?” Archie asked, his eyes looked at him intently.

The storm made it hard for the ships to drop the anchor. It took them close to two hours for them to leave the ships and Archie welcomed them with opened arms.

Thankfully, the storm stopped in the morning and the sky was so clear, as if the heavy rains and thunder last night had never happened.

Baby Zade woke up so early, because he was hungry, thus Yara didn’t have another choice, but to wake Dawn up and informed her.

Dawn woke up and found Zenith was still sleeping, she didn’t know when he returned, because last night he had something to discuss with Zander, but from the look of it, he must have only slept for a few hours.

Thus, Dawn got off the bed carefully and then went to the room next to hers to find Zade was crying and saw his beautiful blue eyes.

“Oh, you have your father’s eyes!” Dawn looked at her baby happily, as she caressed his chubby cheeks and started breastfeeding him, sitting down on the couch there.

Zade was sleeping when she returned and Zenith didn’t say anything about their baby’s eyes, thus only now she could see them.

“You are so beautiful, Zade,” Dawn cooed.

The baby made noises as he latched onto her, as if he wanted to talk something to her. Sometime, he would stop and babble something incoherently and then continued again.

Dawn was not sure if another baby was like this, but Zade was very cute when he did that. She felt like she could stare at her son for a whole day.

Just like Zenith, she was not presence in the first year of her child’s life too in her previous life. She was robbed from the opportunity to breastfeed him, to watch his first step and all the milestones, therefore, Dawn didn’t want to miss this one.

Dawn didn’t realize how long she had been there, until her stomach was growling. She was hungry. Breastfeeding caused her to eat more than usual.

But to her surprised, Zenith entered the nursery room with a few maids, who brought their breakfasts.

“I know you are hungry,” Zenith said, as he kissed her forehead and took Zade from her arms.

“You got the hang of it already?” Dawn was surprised.

“I think he barely tolerates me,” Zenith replied, because Zade pursed his lips when he was taken away from his mother’s embrace. “Your mother needs to eat too,” he said to his son, as if he could understand him and this made Dawn laughed.

Later that afternoon, Dawn finally let Tony to hold Zade. This must be the first time they met and the alpha’s eyes turned red, he was holding back tears when the little baby settled in his arms.

“Hello, Zade. This is your grandfather…” Tony said, as the baby wriggled in his arms. “He has your lips and nose.” He noted. “He is so small…”

Emily would cry if she saw this moment, because not not even once Tony would look at his son this way. It got even worse when he thought Emily was not his daughter.

“Your eyes are so beautiful…” Tony muttered to himself, he was mesmerized by the baby, especially when Zade started to make noises.

Once again, it hit him so hard what he had lost because of his impulsiveness.

Meanwhile, at the same time, Zaya faced her predicament. Zander and Zenith had tried their best to get rid all the possibility for king Rowan to encounter Zaya, but the king from Marca El was persistent. He found a way to find her in the infirmary, as she stayed there with Celine.

“Are you avoiding me?” King Rowan asked when Zaya walked out of the tent. They still had a few warriors, who was poisoned and was not able to shift, but thanked to Dawn, they could produce the antidote and this was no longer a pressing issue.

“I will not dare to do that,” Zaya replied, but she hastened her steps to avoid him.

“So, you will not mind to have a lunch with me?” King Rowan smiled when Zaya gave him a look. “Did your king brother told you about my marriage proposal?”

“I will not be wed off to a stranger.”

“We should spend time more, then.” King Rowan concluded.
