"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
We drove for what seemed like an eternity until we arrived at a small path.
The sun was up and shone brightly in the sky by the time we arrived. I was hot and cranky and the baby in my womb wouldn't stop moving. Every part of my body ached, I was sleep-deprived, hungry and at the same time bone-weary.
As soon as the car stopped, I let myself out and started walking towards a big tree. As soon as I got there, I sprawled under the shade, hoping the tiredness would help me catch a few winks. I closed my eyes and tried not to think of anything.
After a few minutes, I noticed Jared was hovering over me. My eyelids snapped open as I glared at him. "What is it now?'
"We won't be here for long," he said quietly "So, no need for you to relax and feel at home. We'll be moving out as soon as possible,".
