Chapter 70
Kodak’s POV
It had
d been a white since I last con
cooked, but this time. I was determined to do it for Lovette.
Considering her condition. I decided to make an Avocado and potato salad with eggs to provide her with the necessary nutrients and satisfaction.
I couldn’t risk neglecting her needs, especially with our high libidos as Alphas. Her constant fatigue made me want to ensure our intimacy wouldn’t. affect her negatively.
“Alpha, we have maids, why are you cooking?” Cassius asked, sounding concemed. I smiled at him reassuringly.
“Don’t worry, I’m cooking for Love alone,” I replied, he looked like he wanted to say something but
but my mother’s presence stopped him and he quickly existed the kitchen.
“Son, what are you up tot Mom inquired. After explaining my intentions, she suggested, “add some tuna and olive oil
for extra flavor.
After following her advice, I ended up with a delicious salad that I knew Lovette would enjoy. Mom’s excitement was contagious, and I could tell she was happy because I was happy.
Kody, I urge you to reconsider your original plan. Mom started, but 1 interrupted her, already knowing what she wanted to say.
“Don’t worry, Mom, our marriage is genuine. We both agreed to it,” I assured her.
Her joy matched mine, and she embraced me tightly, expressing her approval. “You made a wise decision, and I know you won’t regret it.”
As I stored the salad in the fridge, I shared my concerns with her. “But mom, there’s a problem”
Her expression turned somber, and before she could inquire further, my father showed up and asked, “What’s the issue, son
“Lovette is hungry, and I need to take this food to her.” I signaled at the salad I kept in the fridge to cool a little before remembering. “Oh, and i should also prepare a glass of orange juice,” I added.
While quickly preparing the orange juice, I disclosed the betrayal 1 had faced within the pack. “Someone betrayed me and provided a semen sample to Zeeva. She claims to be pregnant with my child.”
“What?” Both my parents exclaimed in anger, and I felt relieved to share the burden with them. They were my parents and should bear it with me
“Was that her reason for coming here earlier?” Dad asked. I nodded as I plated the salad and poured the juice into a jar. Then I added some toast to
“Yes, Dad. But as I leave you both with the r
responsibility of thinking of a solution,
1, I have to feed my wife, so let’s chat later.”
Quickly, I retrieved the salad from the fridge. Hastening up the stairs, I ignored my mother’s voice as she kept calling after me. But reaching the bedroom. I knew I was late because Lovette was already asleep.
I placed the salad and orange juice in her tabletop fridge, leaving only the toast covered on the plate.
Looking at how soundly she looked in her sleep, I regretted not taking her offer the moment she asked for it but that would be mean in her condition.
Thinking about completing the conversation with my parents, I barely made it to the door before my phone rang.
It was our ware house nunager in the human world, and I was beginning to wonder if I should cogree my parents into taking up those businesses apain. But knowing them, it would only be after Lovelle gave birth.
“Mr. Haster, the containers have been seized, so we have not been able to receive the shipment.”
This was definitely not the kind of news I was waiting to hear. Afterall that was going on in one day, I was gready upset.
“What the heck are you talking about?” I sounded angrier than I wanted, but who could blame me? This might revolve around one of our business spponents, and with everything going on at the pack, I was not ready to make another trip just yet.
“Their lady boss it on your being present to sign before the container is cleared,” he revealed. I
“Why don’t you si

His response was not encouraging, and my phone was already beeping. Moving it from my ear a little to view the caller ID. It was Ken.

Chapter 70
Mr. Baxter, that’s not possible because your father documented that only the CEO’s signature should clear the goods,” my warehouse manager
ported. I was overwhelmed.
The container arrived earlier than expected, but the conditions were appalling. My father must have imposed these conditions to prevent orruption, but they were now hindering me.
Do me a favor and let me talk to her,” I requested.
Okay,” he replied, but the call was not ended. Despite Ken’s persistent calls, I wanted to resolve this issue before anything else arose.
Hello, Mr. Baxter, I’m Pearl, a smooth female voice greeted me on the line. It sounded familiar, though it had been years since I visited the human world.
Hello, Pearl, I am expecting about five more containers and am currently tied up with urgent matters. Can my manager sign on my behalf? I assure you I will be there to clear the rest myself when it arrives.
There was a pause before she responded, “I will need a formal letter or email from you.”
“Great. I will send it immediately just provide your email address to my warehouse manager,” I informed her. She replied, “Alright. I look forward to your email but still hope to see you in person next time. I promptly ended the call after a firm response.
Sure, you will. I muttered.
As I was about to call Dr. Ken, I heard someone clearing their throat and knew it was Lovette. Turning to her, I asked softly, “You’re awake. Are you hungry?”
She nodded, so I went to the fridge to get food for her. “I made it myself.
Her expression and eagerness to eat the food were priceless, giving me satisfaction in caring for her. “Do you like it? I inquired as she took her first bite. She chewed thoughtfully before smiling,
“It’s good. A little salt would have made it perfect”
I cursed internally when I realized I had forgotten to add salt, but she continued eating.
I watched her dreamily, forgetting all the challenges ahead of us. She was like a piece of art, and it was hard to keep my eyes off her.
“Your eyes are going to fall,” her voice brought me back to reality, and I chuckled before taking in the half–empty plate. “Have you eaten yer?” she asked, making me realize I hadn’t
Watching her eat gave me satisfaction that removed every hunger for food. “No, but I’m not hungry. She stopped eating instantly, and I knew she was upset, so I clarified.
“It’s more important for you to eat.” Sull not enough, I pushed on. “For the sake of our pup.”
That was enough to urge her to continue eating as she sipped the orange juice and asked me, “Do you do business in the human land?”
My head bobbed, and I responded, “I know it’s not news to you, and I remember making the proposal before. It’s not too late if you want to invest
there.
1 quite remember mentioning it, but she didn’t seem so interested at the time, and I couldn’t force her
Now, things had changed between us, and I hoped she would take advantage of the opportunities in the human land to expand her pack’s finances.
“Let’s talk about it again after this issue is resolved.”
I couldn’t agree more. “Okay, then I will call Doctor Ken if you don’t mind.” She was almost through with her food, so I knew it wasn’t going to be a problem
“Yes, we should” she rendied in the affirmative, makine me dial the nupsher I was in exuer in dial.
