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.
I thought you were wise...
Selene POV
My heart didn't flutter from his nearness but his kindness.
Reid is the last person I expect to show warmth to me even if it was a tiny bit. Opting not to argue, I allowed him to carry me in his arms as we started towards the upper towns. As we walked, my mind was whirling with a thousand questions. How did Reid know I'd be there? It was no coincidence that he had suddenly stumbled into me.
What was this sudden love he was showing me? I couldn't understand… from where I was in his arms, I studied his profile. His jaw was clenched and his eyes were void, almost blank and without emotion something I noticed was common here. I didn't know if it was a Lycan thing but their coldness was unnerving and most times when Noah looked at me like that it would be difficult to know what he was thinking.
