《The Rejected Mate》18 - Blessed
Advertisement
"Why is he our father , Why is he not with us? , Why is she our cousin and half sister?"
I took a deep breath. I dont know my little boy would be this keen.
"Baby you can't still understand this--"
"I'll better ask it to him"-he said turning his attention towards Archer
"You know kid..it's because , well , us Werewolves has their mates..the one that was given to us by the moon goddess"-Archer started
"And? Who is your mate?"-Marcus asked
"It's your mom"-Marcus nodded
"But well..I have err..a different one I love"-Archer said and the kids just intently listened to him nodding in response
"I married her and have a baby girl with her instead , which is Anna"-Archer said
"So you do not love our momy? And us?"-Marc asked
"No! It's not like that , it's just that..everything's just complicated and hard to explain , when you're big enough , we will explain it to you..okay?"-Archer asked hopefully
"Why are you here just now?"-Marcus asked
"Are you gonna live with us now?"-Marc added
"Well..if you want me to..do you?"-Archer asked
"I want to!"-Marc said raising his hand
"You can , but we don't want her"-Marc said pointing little Anna.
"But she's your little sister"-Archer said stroking Anna's hair
"She is not our sister. She is not momy's baby and she dont look like us. Her eyes are big and brown"-Marcus said
"I like her though"-Marc said
"Boys , Anna is really a nice girl , be nice to her , she doesn't have any playmate before so she will be happy if you will play with her"-I said
"Can I bring her outside? I will play with her!"-Marc said
"Sure , Anna go to your Big bro"-Archer said
"Big bwo?"-Anna asked curiously
"She doesn't even know how to speak letter 'R' "-Marcus said scowling
"This is Marcus and this is Marc , your big brothers"-I said pointing the two
"They wook the same"-Anna said with a frown.
"Yes , because they're twins"-I said and Anna just continue to frown. Marc went towards her and held her hands
"Come on Anna!"-he said and pulled her down the couch
"Marcus go with them , make sure Anna won't fall from the stairs"-I said and Marcus face just twisted as he followed his siblings outside. As soon as we were alone we both sat relieved
"I don't know an interrogation with six year olds were that scary"-Archer said

"My kids are quite keen , you would never know you were talking to a kid"-I said
"But Aveera..why did you hide them from me? You never mentioned we have kids!"-he said
"Archer , I was completely fine raising them alone. I'm already mature enough and never wanted any complications between our life anymore , I just want them to grow and get used of the fact that they don't have a father. I don't want them to know who their father is and demand for his existence , when in reality it is impossible to have him with us..though , this happened now.."-I said
"Aveera , if you only told me..I can manage to be with you , they are also my kids. And here I am trying to have a heir all this time , and I already have one! Not just one , but two in fact"-he said
"Archer , I don't want them involve with the pack and I'm not giving neither of them to you"-I said
"Aveera they are my kids too! I should have a right for them"
"I only want them to live like a normal human being Archer and besides..who would accept them there? They are just illegitimates"-I said
"Everyone will accept them if I say so"
"But still I don't want them there , I love my kids and I won't let neither of them to leave my care"-I said
"You can come there too"
"I know I shouldn't , what will everyone said if you brought us there? When you have your wife and your daughter in the house"
"Baby..don't contradict things okay? This can be better , we can be better let's try it"-he said
"Just fix your relationship with Allisa already and go back and don't involve me in this anymore"-I said
"You can't push me away now , now that I know I have kids with you"-he said.
"This is why I wanted to just keep it away from you"-I hissed
"Aveera , they deserve to have a father. Don't you feel sorry for them? They never had a father , they are not normal like other kids"-he said and I bit my lips. I know they are facing difficulties because of this father-issues..but
"Let's provide them a perfect family like how they deserved it , don't be selfish Aveera"-he said making me gape at him
"Me? Selfish? You just do not know anything Archer. You don't know how it feels to be the unwanted , are you sure you can prevent everyone from judging them? How would they feel if they were outcasted because they're just illegitimate , because even their mom is unfavorable? You won't understand my point cause you never experienced being judged and being unwanted by everyone. No matter how you do , they are favoured with you"-I said

"Baby , it is not what I mean.."
"You just told me I'm being selfish , you never know how I wanted to provide my kids everything I could in their life , you never know cause you just pop in their life all of the sudden"-I said and he looked at me hurt
"I might sound selfish for trying to prohibit them having a father , but I just don't want them to get hurt anymore. To know that they actually have a father , but they are not a priority at all because their father has his other family"-I said.
"Baby..I'm sorry"-he said and went towards me , he pull me up and encased me inside his arms.
"Please stop crying.."-he said. And I never know I was already shredding tears if he did not say it. I sobbed. He think I was cool with everything? I am so anxious all this time. I felt so work up with everything that is happening here..I'm trying to weigh things , I never know a one word from him , 'selfish' would make me break down. I kept on crying while he murmured his sorries to me caressing my back with his hands.
"I'm so sorry. Please stop crying now.."-he said and kissed the top of my head
"You're such a jerk"-I said punching his chest
"I know..I'm always a jerk towards you , I never did any good decisions when it comes to us"-he said with a sigh. I was left hiccuping as my cries started to die down. I never cried like that for so long.
"Let's not just think about those things for now. I wanted to take everything slowly , I wanted to Be a good father for them first and let them decide afterwards.."-he said raising my gaze towards him. I sniff and he wipe my cheeks with his hand.
"I felt terrible..you never shed tears easily , I felt terrible for judging you as a mother so suddenly , please forgive me about that..but your braking down is just a proof of how you are truly a good mother"-he said and lean towards me giving me a passionate kiss on my lips. It wasn't a kiss who demands a respond. It was brief and sweet. After he kissed me , he lean his forehead towards mine , cupping my cheeks.
"Hm.. What if.. Let's talk about other things.. About how was your pregnancy , how do you know your pregnant and so on?"-he said changing the subject
"Shall we?"-I asked almost in a hoarse voice
"Yes we will , I wanted to know everything"-he said. And with that we spend our whole afternoon just talking things about my life here when I knew I was pregnant. And in the end of discussion he felt terrible for me , for what I've experienced , for not being there , for not witnessing the development of our kids.
"I'm sure it was so good to witness their every firsts..even in Anna , I never witnessed it. I felt like a terrible father.."-he said full of disappointment and sorrow , I was about to respond at him when the door burst open. And the kids went in.
"Oh my god , what happened to you guys?"-I asked seeing their dirty clothes and sweaty figures
"We played on the park!"-Marc said
"We pway swides! And we pway to the othew kids and we pway game of tug!"-Anna said giggling
"That must be fun!"-I said beaming at them.
"Anna is such a handful"-Marcus complained patting himself
"Let's go home mom! I want to take a bath!"-Marc said
"Let's go home!"-Anna seconded
"Can we bring Anna at home?"-Marc asked
"Can we stay in your house? The kids became close now"-Archer said smiling
"Yeah! Daddy should come home with us too! Right Marcus?"-Marc said nudging his twin
"Yeah , he can come with us"-Marcus said. Archer gave me a big smile. Just a little approval from his kids and he seems so ecstatic about it.
"Fine let's go home"-I said and the kids cheers. We started to fill out the office , Archer and Anna took their clothes from their penthouse first before we continue our ride towards home. I am driving while Archer was at the shot gun seat and the kids with nanny Gabriela is behind. I glanced towards Archer when he held my unoccupied hand.
"I felt overwhelmed , they accepted me and Anna easily"-he said
"It can happen , oh by the way , I have a documentary with their every firsts in my photo album and camcorder"-I said
"That'll be nice , I want to watch it"-he said
"We are doing that"-I said smiling and looking forward at the street
"Aveera.."-I glanced towards Archer when he spoke again
"Thank you..for not giving up on them , for choosing to raise them even how hard it is for you"-he said and I just smiled. I would never think of aborting my children. Never..

Pawns of God
Five Lines PitchJoin Mark in his fight against a God and change the game's destiny! Delve into a slow-paced story focused on the progression of the main party and the development of the world. Mark himself will be narrating his life inside the game, and to a much lesser extend outside. Guild building, economy, and strategy are the central pieces of the novel. Mark is not overpowered, he will have to build his own power through action-packed battles, trials, traumas, love, and death. Accompany him, the healer and the strategist, an agent of chaos, in the adventure of his life. Without further preamble, I will let Mark take the mic. SynopsisHi! My name is Mark. This is my story, my life as I live it day after day. I’m in my thirties, and there’s nothing I love more than playing online games. I’ve just joined the action on the newest VRMMO game, Pawns of God. An immersive experience you can play while sleeping. Of course, as a game that takes pride in its long development and technological advances, everything inside seems and feels real. Beware, this is not a game-turns-real story. I love my own world and I would detest being summoned into another one. If that ever happens, I’ll just quickly take my life and be done with it. I play with my friends, in a party of 5. We have taken several roles, but lately, I've come to love being a healer. It's my secret ambition to someday be the shotcaller. I am not overpowered. If there is any bug or exploit in the game, they are yet to be discovered. Anyhow, for a game of this scale, the company is pouring all of its resources into test servers, QA, and beta tests. I don’t expect to find any, so I’ll be playing the game just like any other person. I must say, though, I am easily distracted, as you will immediately notice once you start. I'm working on it, I promise to improve! I am no hero. Being in my 30s, my heart is too old for this shit. I wouldn’t mind being one, of course. Who hasn’t dreamt of it? Either way, I’m not doing any grand quest to save the world. Whatever the game throws to their users, I’ll be there to experience it. Most of my life, at least the interesting parts that I’ll be narrating, happen inside the game itself. Rarely, there will be some IRL (In Real Life) chapters. You’ll understand, however, that as a freelance software developer, there is not much I can entertain you with when outside the game. Did I say I love games? Well, I’m also a fan of LitRPG literature. You know, journeys of magic, relationships, personal development, items, skills, discovery… In the spirit of not overwhelming my public, I’ll condense each chapter into circa 1500 words. You might have noticed some tags over this story, let me elaborate. I like to swear. I’m not shy when it comes to cursing my enemies, friends, or even myself. When there’s blood, I tell it as I see it. And… it hurts to admit it, but I’m not a casanova. Of course, this doesn’t mean that I won’t ever find love. So, in case I do end up finding it, let’s keep my sexual options open. As for traumas, none yet, but the future is vast and unknown.
