Chapter 176

Miguel's pov

"Seriously Bulky, why are you helping me?"

I can't just believe he've changed. If memory serves me right he was really angry with me for making a little noise until he recognized me.

He looked down in guilt "am trying to atone for my sins Miguel. I unjustly hurt you when you've done absolutely nothing to me, and that doesn't bode well with me at all. "

" You knew you were wrong in the first place? " I raised a brow at him.

He nods " I hope all am doing now is enough to atone for my sins because whenever I look at this babies I feel my guilt intensifying more than I think possible.

I feel more guilty about the fact is would have unknowingly killed your babies without knowing it. I would have killed their destines...."

His eyes welled in tears. It was really difficult for him to complete his words because of the tears clocking his throat. 

"I hold no grudge against you Bulky. It was your Alpha's orders, and I don't think you would have done anything even if you want to."

I've seen Bianca and the rest of the pack taking orders from the Alphas. None have ever defiled the orders of their superiors.

"Thank you," he smiled at me. "Am grateful of the fact you hold no grudge whatsoever against me."

" Be rest assured Bulky, I do no such thing."

" Why do you call me Bulky? that's not my name." He tilts his head to the side as if he's only now understanding what I've been calling him for ages.

" You're Bulky, and I don't know your name."

I have a tendency of calling people names based on their appearances if I don't know their names.

I guess I've gotten used to it, and it's now difficult for me to stop.

He nervously scratched his hair " I kinda like the name Bulky. It makes me look strong."

He smiled goofily as if the name Bulky is enough to help him win the African's cup of nation.

"You don't look as weak as you're supposed to look. If anything your cheeks looks plumper, and your wounds are all healed!" Manuel looked really angry at that.

"I guess it must be my new wolf's gene. Giving birth to children fathered by werewolves can make me a partial wolf. That might be the case."

This was what I heard from my mates who are not longer my mates, and I hope it's a good cover story for what Bulky have been doing for me.

Bulky might have been my enemy before, but all he've done for me makes him a friend not an enemy. 

I don't even consider him as an enemy. If anything I consider him as a friend.

Manuel turned towards me in rage. "You once took everything that belongs to me, but today's your final day Miguel, today's the day I take back all that rightfully belongs to me. Including this!" he points at my babies.

" My babies belongs to you?" I look up at him to check if he's aware of what he's talking about.

He nods. 

A sadistic grin on his face. " These babies shouldn't exist, but now they do, they're mine."

" Yours?" I laughed so loudly I was afraid I woke up the death with the sounds of my Laughter.

Never have I heard of something like this.

"How dare you laugh!" 

I didn't see it coming, but the excruciating pain I felt from the hit of whatever he threw at me was enough to knock me out, but I sat strong.

I have to be strong for my babies. Strong for Bulky who's relying on me to escape from this place.

"How dare you laugh when your master is talking?" he stalked towards me, squatting in front of me, he tightly held my jaw in his hand.

"You might have laughed before, but it's no longer your turn to do so. He who laughs last Laughs the best."

He stood up as he laughed.

" You're wrong Manuel. He who laughs last didn't catch the joke."

I Know am courting death by saying all am doing, but I don't care.

All I want is more time to decide on how to escape without being caught.

At least I have a day more, and one day is enough for me to think on the right way to do things to avoid a mistake or anything of that sort.

"What?!"

He turned to me in anger. Stretching forth his open palm towards me, he made a motion of closing it.

I started struggling for breathe. My legs kicking out as I fought against his dark hold on my body.

I've gone through a lot of near death experience and escaped all, but even if I don't escape this one. I wouldn't do so without a fight.

I will fight till my last strength so my babies will know their day fought so hard for them before he finally gave up the ghost.

Manuel tightened the choke hold he have on my neck, but I still fought, and in all things I didn't release my hands.

I want it to be an element of surprise when I will show him I've all along being released but was reluctant to leave.

"What are you?" 

Manuel opened his hands. A strand of sweat on his face while I was drenched in sweat.

It's more like I fought against death and prevailed.

"A human mated to wolves. A father of two. A friend to many, and an enemy of few."

I slowly smiled.

My breathing still having a hard time recovering from what I juts passed through in the hands of a person I once considered as a friend.

I can't believe there was a time I defiled my mates just so I can spend time with a witch in wolves clothing. 

He was the cause of my first couple fights with my mates, and right now he's still the cause of it all.
