Hiding the Alpha’s Baby (Layla and Alexander’s)

Chapter 97 

MASSIMO 

+5 

He went after my fiance! “I hear Cassian’s voice from the living room of the pack house and smirk. 

Dear fake cousin is throwing a tantrum. I never expected I would hit two birds with one stone. Ayla Alvarez is indeed a prized possession to have, a weapon I can wield to kill Alexander and Cassian at once. NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.

Calm down, Cass. It’s possible that Massimo didn’t know about your fondness for Ayla. ” Aunt Alexa’s voice filters through the space, 

making me sigh. 

My sweet Aunt, always the peacemaker. 

“He knew! He knew everything, or why else would he go after—” 

I stroll inside the living room, my icy gaze lowering to Uncle Max sitting on the couch, indifferent to Cassian’s fit in the middle of the night. He lifts his brows when his eyes land on me, a hint of a smirk matching mine spreading across his lips. 

What I love him for is the fact that he sees right through Cassian like I do. 

“Massimo, what brings you here in the middle of the night?” Aunt Calista leaves Cassian’s side and approaches me hastily. 

CL 

‘It’s good that he is here.” Cassian scoffs. 

Aunt Calista halts in her way and stands between us instead of reaching for me again. Her eyes meet mine, asking silent questions.

Cassian said that you married Alpha Alexander’s daughter and announced it to them suddenly. Is this true, Mimo?” She asks, calling me by 

the weird nickname she gave me long ago. I have grown to push my irritation aside about it, and gotten accustomed to it. 

She likes me and not Cassian. She asked me to marry her and I didn’t refuse. “I shrug, lying without blinking my eyes. 

Aunt Calista won’t be able to hear the truth about the person I am or have become even after she tried her best to raise me into a gentleman. 

66 

Fucking Liar! Tell the truth. What did you do to her?” Cassian yells, his face turning red in rage. 

He is the son of Aunt Calista’s sister, and I officially find him unbearable. 

I roll my eyes, ready to retort but Uncle Max beats me to it. 

66 

Cassian, tone down. You are not standing in your pack and you are not the Alpha here! Uncle Max stepped down from his Alpha position three years ago and handed me the reigns, but his influence is still strong. 

Cassian shuts his gutter mouth and shoots daggers at me with his eyes. I smirk cooly at him. 

* 

What about you, Mimo?” Aunt Calista’s hands close around my biceps as she looks into my eyes. ” do you like Ayla?‘ 

” 

Of course. I dislike everything about her, the way her lips lift into an effortless smile, the way her eyes shine, the way she makes me want to strangle her and fuck her at the same time– dislike all of it. 

Of course, Calista. Why else would I marry her?” I nod, guilt never rising to the surface.

The way I have chosen, I will have to walk alone on it and no one will know where I am going until I am consumed by the flames of vengeance. There will be no saving then, as time would have long passed. 

We 

could have asked for her hand from Alpha Alexander for you, boy! Why create drama?” 

馘 

Why didn’t you tell us that you like that girl? 

Uncle Max scolds. 

“You know, Alpha Alexander and I are not on good terms because of business disputes. He wouldn’t have agreed if we asked for Ayla. That’s why Ayla wanted to marry me as soon as possible. “I flash him a curt nod. 

“He is lying again. He is deliberately attacking Alpha Alexander. ” Cassian sneers, like a sulking child, and turns to me.” It won’t be long because he snaps and comes for your neck, you fucker! This time you crossed a hard line.

“Well, he wouldn’t want his daughter to become a widow so soon, I suppose?” My smirk widens as I regard Cassian smugly. 

He is feral, his eyes flashing different colors, as he fights to push his wolf down.. 

Come on, Little Cassie, attack me so I have an excuse to break your teeth in. 

“You!” He seethes, taking a threatening step forward. 

” 

66 

Enough!” Aunt Calista yells, her chest heaving up and down angrily. She is a kind woman, but she doesn’t take kindly to a fuss in her house. 

You two are brothers. How can you fight over a girl?” She scolds.” Massimo, you did wrong. You should have told us about her before 

marrying her. We would have supported you no matter what!‘ 

” 

I purse my lips, ignoring the satisfied glint in Cassi’s eyes. He is like a snake, always hissing and slithering his way into my fucking life. One of these days, I am going to break his neck and throw his body into a ditch where no one will discover him. 

“And you Cassian, I know you are hurt, but understand that Ayla is now your brother’s wife. She married him by choice. You can not go after a woman who doesn’t want you, do you understand?! That’s not what a man does. ” Aunt Calista turns to him, planting her hands on her hips to appear intimidating. 

” 

How can you side with him?! Ayla doesn’t want him, Alpha Alexander doesn’t agree to this marriage and this fucker doesn’t love Ayla. He has some trick up his fucking sleeve! Why can’t you see?!” Cassian’s voice rises again. 

He is a nuisance, but he is right at least. He must have begun using his brain. 

” 

Cass, how can you talk to your brother like this? Don’t you— 

He is not my brother, Aunt Calista! He is a stray you picked up from the forest and that’s what he will always remain, a stray dog who doesn’t deserve to stand in the same room as us! Who knows who his parents are? How are we sure that he is not a mutt half wolf and half human, the result of a disgusting affair between a horny werewolf and a stupid human?!” He yells, his face turning red. 

Before I can notice it, I am already crossing the distance and choking him. For an Alpha, he is pathetic. His instincts are weak, his fighting abilities zero, and his brain non–existent. 

But he has a sharp tongue. 

I throw him into the wall, the bricks collapsing under his weight. Red in my view blinds me as I bash his head into the wall repeatedly. He growls, pushing me down and punching my cheek. 

The hit is as pathetic as him. I throw him away by kicking his stomach and punching his face, dislocating a part of his jaw.

Massimo!” Uncle Max hisses, his voice making me pause and leaving my fist hanging in the air. 

‘Step away from Cassian right now, Massimo. “He commands. 

I respect this man too much for saving my life and raising me as his son. I can not ignore what he asks of me. 

I leave Cassian’s collar with a hard push and rise from his groaning figure.

“Massimo. “Aunt Calista reaches for my arm, and pushes me away from Cassian, fearing that I might flip again. “What are you doing to your brother, Massimo?” 

E 

‘Why are you always forcing this upon us? We are not brothers, Calista. We will never be. I am not your son. I will never be. My parents are 

dead. You and Max can not be my parents and that’s why, this asshole can never be my cousin brother. “I scoff, losing control of my 

emotions. 

Aunt Calista’s hand flies to her mouth as she suppresses a gasp. She looks horrified, and heartbroken Uncle Max comes up beside her, his eyes glaring at me. 

As my chest heaves and my hands unclench, I realize the extent of my words and stiffen. The bitterness is starting to seep into my heart and tongue again. 

66 

Get out, Massimo. Don’t show up until you regret what you just said to Calista.” Uncle Max hisses, making me sigh tensely. 

I fucked up. 

“Iam– 

95 

Your true colors always show. You can not hide them for long. “Cassian chuckles from behind them, wiping the corner of his lips as his jaw 

cracks into place. 

That’s what he wanted all along, for me to attack him and get kicked out. 

I clench my fists, reigning in the fury. Killing him won’t be a good move right now. 

“Your lies always get exposed.” He grins. ” Your lies about Ayla’s love for you will get exposed just like this.”

What makes you so sure that she doesn’t love me? ” My eyes twitch. 

Well, she feels disgusted by a man’s touch. Any man’s touch. Because she is used to me from a young age. She only allows me to touch her, to do you know what.” His suggestive laugh fills my vision with red again. 

I step ahead, only to get blocked by Aunt Calista’s body. She picks her head and blinks the tears back in her eyes. 

14 

Go, Mimo. Go back home.” She whispers. 

I grit my jaw. I shouldn’t get angry at Cassian’s comment. I don’t give a fuck if Ayla was whoring around with a hundred men before. I won’t fuck her even if she is the last woman on the planet. 

I scoff, turning and strolling out of the living room only to hear Uncle Max addressing Cassian. 

From now on, do not show up to my pack, Cassian Ruth. You are not allowed here anymore. Today, the Alpha of the pack let you live because he cares about his parents, but he won’t give you another chance and I won’t stop him. ‘ 

”

Cassian huffs, “Aunt Calista—” 

+5 

Get out, Cass. You do not get to call my son a stray and get to stand in his pack. Get out and learn some manners before returning. “Aunt Calista replies before he can seek her help. 

The guilt in my heart intensifies, my own words haunting me. But soon after, Cassian’s words take the lead. 

As I go back home, where I left that troublesome girl, my mind keeps drifting off to the way she reacted to my touch. She was scared and 

disgusted. Was she really fucking Cassian and doesn’t want anyone beside him?
