"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
The hideout was dark and damp, hidden deep in the forest. I didn't know where we were but I could tell we were far from Moon Whisper's territory.
Inside, Jared paced restlessly, while Jade kept a wary eye on me. I sat in a corner, my wrists bound. I could feel the baby in my womb, turning uncomfortably. It could be hungry who knows? Because I've gone nearly three days without any food or water.
"We need to feed her," Jared said suddenly, breaking the tense silence. "The baby… we can't risk harming it and she would need her strength too,".
Jade's eyes narrowed suspiciously. "Since when do you care about the welfare of Noah's heir?" she asked, her voice laced with scepticism. I thought you said you hated her so much too. Why do you care about that,".
