"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.
Selene POV
It was almost dawn when we left the clearing and started back to the road that led to Moon Whisper.
We both had to endure not going beyond a kiss and right now… I couldn't stop thinking about it. The way our lips had moved together as if it was meant to be… the way his hands had hovered around my body until I thought I would go mad with want.
I sighed, clearing the thoughts from my head, hoping Noah wouldn't be able to notice Kragen's scent on me. I stared out of the window; my mind was a whirlwind of thoughts. Everything, I had learned in the last few hours was just too much to digest. Jared's revelations, Kragen's confessions, deciding whether or not the moon goddess had lied to me, the sudden, unexpected kiss – it was all tangled together, leaving me feeling raw and overwhelmed.
