Chapter 106: Chapter 106

My expression changed immediately. The last thing I'll let happen is for someone to come in between Wyatt and my relationship. Moreover, when that someone is Oswald.

I gnashed my teeth together and straightened my neck, my eyes spitting with intense fury. Wyatt is mine. “You can't stop me, Oswald.” I bellowed

Prominent lines appeared between Oswald's eyebrows, and he grimaced. He lowered his head to stare directly into my eyes and hugged me tightly. “Maia. I can't do without you. Don't make this hard for us.” He proclaimed in a serious and shaky voice.

Suddenly, he changed our position and pressed me against the tree. His right hand effortlessly pinned my hands above my head.

I glared at him coldly in response and tried to push him away to escape. However, his lock made me unable to

Oswald slowly kissed my shoulder with intense care, as if he were afraid of hurting me.

Although I didn't want him, I couldn't help the tingle that coursed through me with his every action, which I knew he must also be feeling. I bit my lower lip and prevented myself from letting out a sound.

“Maia, let's get together. I'll break up with Lorelei, and I'll make you my woman immediately. Furthermore, I’ll treat you right—better than he can. Please, Maia…” Accompanying every one of Oswald's words was a deep kiss planted on my shoulder blade.

My face reddened in infuriation. Can this person stop being so selfish and self-centered? It's really infuriating.

I whipped my face to the side in contempt for his actions. “Oswald. You're losing your mind. Snap out of it. Do you have the guts to betray your beta, your childhood friend, for a woman?” I chided him.

Seeing Oswald's loss of sense, I try using Wyatt's name, hoping the relationship between him and Wyatt will be able to stop him.

Oswald cupped my face and stroked my chin fondly. “There's nothing I won't dare for you. What's the use of having everything but you by my side?” Oswald proclaimed seriously

Suddenly, Oswald grabbed my chin firmly and then lowered his head to kiss me.

My eyes widened, and my heart flew to my throat in horror. I trembled. I don't want to betray my husband. No. The last thing I wanted was to betray Wyatt, that amazing man.

I tried to whip my face to the side of escape, but under his firm lock, I was unable to move an inch.

Somehow, I couldn't help but disdain myself at that minute.

How can I be so weak? I can't even break away from Oswald's hold.

Will I have to watch him inch closer until he kisses me? My face reddened due to alternating fury, humiliation, and shame.

However, I decided to plead. As long as I can let him let me go, what does a little begging mean? “Oswald, Stop. Please. Don't do… Mmmhhh!”

Before I could complete my words, Oswald lowered his head and placed a deep kiss on my lips.

My face turned pale, and my brain went blank. I fell back on the tree, drained of strength, and my lips parted slightly in horror and disgust. I betrayed Wyatt. I just cheated on Wyatt.

The realization left a trace of disgust and anger in me.

I never expected that this person would be so disgusting to do such a thing to his friend's wife. A surge of fury invaded me.

However, Oswald continued to stroke my cheeks as if he couldn't feel the anger surging in me.

“The more you do this, the more my hatred for you increases. Wyatt is the best thing that happened to me; I'll never betray him for a jerk like you. Once something is lost, it's lost. There's no second chance. Alpha Oswald, you disgust me. I have never been so disgusted by someone before.” I proclaimed seriously while staring deep into his eyes.

The last thing I ever wanted was to resort to such words that could deal him a huge blow, but after what he had just done, the bit of feeling I held for him had gone with the wind.

Despite being locked by him, my body stood tall, and an outstanding aura oozed out of me, my eyes holding nothing but contempt for the man in front of him.

Oswald's face paled, and his body shook as if he had just been dealt a huge blow. His hold was unconsciously released, and his hand trembled. He looked into my eyes with a pain-filled, mismatched one. However, I only stared back at him with cold eyes.

Oswald's lips quivered, and his lips parted slightly, but they ended up closing. His actions were repeated a few times.

Suddenly, he turned and fled into the deeper part of the forest, but not without a drop of tears trickling down his eyes.

My calm expression broke, and tears welled in my eyes due to my pain and his pain that overwhelmed me. I plopped at the foot of the tree immediately.

Recalling the kiss, I began to wipe my lips with my hand, my heart constricting due to pain.

Oswald is a bastard. How could he be so selfish? He's not worthy of Wyatt. Not at all.

At this rate, I felt like my current life was more draining than the time spent in the red flame pack.

I curled myself in a fetal position, deep pain coursing through me.

It was all my fault.

If I hadn't come here, none of these would've happened. I wouldn't have cheated on Wyatt. I wouldn't have.

Tears trickled past my eyes. I'm not worthy of Wyatt. Not at all. I’m just trouble for him.

Now something like this has even happened.

How can I even tell this to him? How can I tell him his best friend, who was his alpha, came over to kiss me against my wishes?

Although Wyatt is always calm, I knew the news would infuriate him. I know I am Wyatt's soft spot, and he's unwilling to see something happen to me.

If he knew about what happened, wouldn't his relationship with Oswald break up completely? Moreover, it can alert the entire pack about the relationship the three of us hold.

And the last thing I'll want is to make Wyatt uncomfortable.

Until when do I have to go through this? Although my words were able to deal a huge blow to Oswald this time, who knows if he'll come back another day and what he'll do by that time?

What can I do to prevent such humiliation? Perhaps asking Wyatt to grant me a bodyguard will do. After all, if the bodyguard kept following me all day, Oswald would be unable to do anything.

Although I wanted my space, having a bodyguard follow me in the meantime would help me eliminate the danger called Oswald.

I wrapped my hands around my knee and stared into the distance.

“Maia? What's wrong? Where are you?” Wyatt’s frantic voice suddenly came through the mind-link.

My body became tense upon hearing his voice. I understood that Wyatt must have noticed my emotions.

Just feeling a slight change in my emotions will make him worry. Yet, I. Yet, I still cheated on him.

“Hubby, I'm sorry.” I cried out immediately through the mind-link. I'm so sorry for being weak. I'm so sorry for being useless. I'm so sorry for being unable to fight back and prevent myself from cheating on you. I'm so sorry that I'll be hiding this incident from you so you won't be worried and annoyed.

"Maia, answer me, where are you?” He demanded his voice, now cold and laced with worries.

I fell silent and simply blocked him, not having the face to see him. I curled myself up and bawled my eyes out.
