Chapter 0030 Yes , Alpha , Ben said .
Sighing .
I walked out of the living room and into the hallway .
At the end of the hallway , near the back of the house , I entered my fathers study .
A wide desk was near a set of windows , Bookcases lined the far wall .
I moved to the desk and lifted the phone that was on top of it Sheila , I said .
I heard the telltale click of Ben hanging up his phone .
Lucian .
I need you , Sheila sobbed .
You have to come home right now … I … I dont know what Ill do if Im left alone .
You arent alone in the house , I reminded her .
Any of my maids can sit with you .
Or you could call one of your friends This isnt the time for friends ! she suddenly shouted .
I need you ! I was her friend , but I decided not to point that out , not wanting to make everything worse , I cant return right now , I said , keeping , my voice calm and gentle .
I have obligations here .
But its going to be okay .
Im only going to be gone for a few more hours , then be back .
ll A few hours is an eternity , Sheila said .
I need you back right now .
Sheila , please … Im barren , Lucian .
Dont you understand what that means for a she wolf ? Im humiliated .
I have nothing to live for .
Thats not true .
And Dr.
A is working on a cure … Shell never find it .
She thinks Im a whore whos not worthy to be a mother .
Thats not true either .
So you are taking her side ? Sheila gasped .
Im not taking anyones side .
I just think we need to take a few deep breaths and refocus , alright ? You are in my house right now .
Im taking care of everything .
You dont have to worry about a thing .
Im going to fix this , alright , Sheila ? I need you to stay with me … Arias POV Even after sitting for a few minutes in a pool chair , I wasnt feeling well .
I could still feel the eyes of the alphas around me .
Jasper might have been able to keep them at bay for the moment , but they still resented me .

They still glared at me when he wasnt looking .
Im just going to take a little walk, I said to Jasper .
Ill come with you … I want to be alone .
He didnt want to let me go at first , but I was adamant .
Eventually , he relented .
If you need anything , I will be right here until you get back .
I appreciated his concern and his looking out , even if I wasnt entirely sure it was genuine .
I had fun with Jasper , but I knew he cared about very few things and even less people .
I hadnt convinced myself that I was on that list .
Chapter 0030 +25 BONUS Still , to even say those words was a nice enough gesture .
Thanks , I told him .
Beside the pool area was a large garden .
Julia was well known for her green thumb and took pride in working .
with the gardeners to cultivate a massive collection of trees , bushes , and flowers .
Walking through the gardens was like stepping into another world .
Immediately , I was able to put some distance between myself and those negative thoughts that invaded my thoughts curtesy of those rude Alphas .
A light was on in the nearby window .
Wasnt that Harolds study ? One of the windows was slightly ajar .
From the room , I heard a voice .
Lucian , in a very gentle , tender tone .
Sheila , I need you to stay with me … I had thought my heart was done breaking , yet still it found room for more pain .
Lucian had assured me that he had no romantic entanglement with Sheila .
He was a liar .
