Tangled Hearts - The Alpha's Baby Mama
"Did you think healing me would make me love you more?" He scoffed grabbing my hair as he pulled me towards the door. "You're hurting me, Xavier," I cried beating against him weakly. There was not much I could do. "If I ever see you an inch close to me," He threw me against the wall "I'll damn the consequences and kill you,". *** My mate and I were destined to hate each other, only an act of true love or selflessness from the stronger mate could set our destines on the right path but for seven years, I had to put up with my mate's abuse and his supposed love of his life until one day I decided to leave. I left, determined to stay hidden from him forever... but I found out I was pregnant few weeks later.
A two-way rescue...
Lucius POV
Noah's office was as thick as tension when I entered. The Lycan King's face was etched with worry and fatigue.
"Talk of the devil," Kurtis chuckled. "It's him your majesty… he's best at saving Selene,".
My gaze turned from Noah to Kurtis who was sitting at one corner of the office and my heart sank. I hadn't noticed his presence. A part of me was happy to see him, while a part of me, couldn't deal with the part that liked seeing him.
The guilt of what happened between us still gnawed at me and I had convinced myself that I would stay away from him I was just confused, that it was the alcohol that night but here I was at Moon Whisper at his beck and call.
"Kurtis!" I said curtly and turned to Noah. Could he see what I felt inside? I wondered.
