She wipes the corner of her mouth to see Kelvin holding Amara by the car but they are not the only ones looking at her, several pack members passing by have also recognised her and they are not subtle with their stares.
Many look genuinely shocked to see her, whispering among themselves, most of them hold nasty glares on their faces as they stare at her but none of them say a word or come close to her as she returns to the car.
She was expecting at least one of them to come at her, considering how they took torches to the Alpha’s house, demanding her death and chased her till she jumped off the cliff.
As Leila’s car pulls closer to her mother’s house who Tatum has placed under house arrest with several pack warriors guarding her, Leila notices men in construction gear and overall taking measurements on a large parcel of undeveloped land belonging to her family.
Is her mom planning to do something with it after all these years, but she would mention it to her if she was.
She shrugs off the thought, making a mental note to ask her mother as their car pulled up to the driveway of the house.
Amara bolts out of the car as soon as it comes to a halt, running straight into the house.
Liana stands up from her recliner as her door flies open and she crouches as Amara runs into her arms, throwing her little arms over her neck.
“I finally get to meet you pretty gran gran,” Amara says, joy emanating off her little self.
Liana chuckles at the nickname as she kisses Amara’s face.
She remembers how she went from grandmama to pretty gran gran, it was during a video call about a year ago when Leila claimed Amara got her beauty from her but Amara said no, she got if fre

“ts. t me or are those break the bug
ces on Amara’sleet?” Kelvin’s voice makes Liana
He broke Lana’s rules of no shoes in the house often and always got stick for it but Amara is getting a hug
“Hey, my granddaughter is my special guest, she can even wear her shoes on my bed, no problem, Liana stands up and gestures with her hands, “as for the both of you come here”
She opens her arms and Kelvin and Lewalk up to her and hug her at the
same time, Lana’s eyes water and she roses Leila’s hair pulling Amara closer to her as the little gut holds her leg
Amara suddenly sighs in reflet “A big family hug…I love my family.”
The adults burst into laughter and Landpicks her up and kisses her face making Amara blush
Some time pass and the three visitors de sitting round the dining table and Lians appears from the kitchen with some snacks and hot chocolate drinks when Amara pulis her dress and gestures for her to come closer
Amars covers her mouth with her hand and whispers to Liana or thinks she
is whispering when her voice is loud enough for all to hear
“Gran gran, do you know Uncle Kex is no Papa Ka? He sleeps in mama’s bed and last night, mame sent me away after buying candles and flowers at the mal i asked Kate’s moms and she said they are having a romantic date”
“is that so** Lians replies in a coy
pporting between her and Amaro
and places her index finger on her
Amars gives her a thumbs up and minis sipping her mouth before she picks up her mug and innocently sips of her drink, keeping her eyes forward.
Liana then turns to Kelvin and Lede who are both too stunned to speak, just staring at Amara spilling their tea. They intentionally avoid Liana’s eyes as she watches them with a calculated curiosity before she smiles and
whispers
“Hurry up and tie the knot, I’m due for another grandchild.”
Leila stares wide eyed at her mother and Kelvin tries hard to hide his shock. He expected a different reaction from her.
Leila drops her gaze to the photo album in front of her and when she flips it, it’s the picture of her and Kelvin at prom that she sees.
His smile in the picture is as bright as the sun, his blue eyes radiant with joy but he isn’t looking at the camera, his passionate and happy gaze is rapt on ther.
She remembers how happy he was that night, how he never let go of her hand, never let her out of his sight, how proud he felt having her as his prom
date.
How did she miss his desire for her over the years?
That’s right, she was foolishly blinded by her love for Tatum, her heart only beat for him, her eyes set only on him.
If Kelvin never stayed by her side over the years, she would never have known what it means to be truly loved.
She will make a life with him, her chapter with Tatum is closed.
