Unexpected

DEAL

Me coming around Chanel was only to see my son. When he was conceived, we had just figured out that we were mates.

We were at a party and just happened to run into each other. Filled with alcohol, our lust was tenfold, and we couldn't keep our hands off each other.

Unfortunately, I marked Chanel when we fucked in the bathroom.

Two weeks later, she ran up on me in tears.

"Tyree, you fucking idiot. You got me pregnant!"

When she first told me I wasn't upset at all. But the more I wasn't bothered the more pissed off she got.

"What's so bad about that?"

"Are you serious?! I'm with Knox!"

"You're not with him. You're getting fucked by him...there's a difference."

Her bringing him up annoyed me but then her phone rang and it was Nova. Now I'm realizing I really fucked up my chances getting with her.

Yeah, I know I've been a dickhead to Nova the past few years and I'm not really good with the lovey-dovey talking to females. Usually, they approach me and we hook up depending on if they look good.

Nova was different and when I approached her for the first time she was scared. But not on some, I was mean to her type shit. I literally said what's up to her and she hurried away from me.

That confused me since I'd seen her saying hello to other males who had done worse shit in these streets than me.

I took her reaction personally and decided to give her what she assumed I was. I got addicted to seeing her scared or crying. But I also still really like Nova and thought she was pretty as fuck.

It was going to take some time to get her on my side but those chances are over. Now she's the Alpha's mate and I got Chanel's dumbass pregnant.

Even though I'm not really feeling my kid's mother, that's not gonna stop me from being in his life.

"Did he drink the whole bottle?"

Chanel walked into the nursery with a box of wipes. I was at her place that she shared with her roommate Breana.

"There's a little left."

I already burped my son and he was fast asleep. She sat on the carpeted floor staring at us...probably thinking about Knox.

"Thanks for picking us up from the hospital and visiting the baby."

"If I didn't you would've put another man on his birth certificate."

She looked down. "I'm sorry I tried to name him after the Alpha. I didn't think you were going to show up."

"Yeah, because you didn't tell me you were in labor. Good thing Breana's cool and told me."

"Okay, Tyree...I said I was sorry."

"Whatever."

I got up and put my son in his crib then I sat back down.

"Listen, I know you don't fuck with me like that but I'm gonna be in my son's life."

"I know. We'd do better working together than against each other."

I looked at Chanel surprised.

"Yeah, I said it. I have to focus on taking care of Tyrell now."

I smiled at his name...it was a combination of both our governments.

"Plus, I'm over this Knox and Nova shit."

"I feel you."

Then I remember something that I haven't told anyone about. It happened years ago.
