Chapter 0392
"So..." I say, closing the door behind me. "Sup?" I ask casually as I take a seat on a nearby sofa. He stays standing on his spot and shoves both hands in trouser pockets. The pained look in his eyes has intensified. He really looks like he's going to cry soon.
"Remember I told you about the ongoing investigation concerning Selena's return."
"Yeah. You did. What about it?"
"Kyle uh..." He clears his throat and makes his way over to the couch I'm sitting on. My breath catches in my chest when he lowers himself closer to
me.
His scent flies into my nostrils and assaults my senses like it always does. God, this man will always have this effect on me.
"There are a few things Kyle found out about Selena. Things that have completely broken my trust in her."
"What are those things?"
A few seconds go by before he narrates to me everything Kyle told him about Selena and her ex-boyfriend before Alpha Reagan. When he's done talking, I have just two words in mind for her.
That bitch!
"If she could tell a lie of that magnitude, I wonder what other lies she told me and I believed. I can't believe the Moon goddess had me mated to someone like her."
"Why can't you be mated to someone like her? It's not like you're perfect yourself. You have flaws too, you know."
"I know... it's just... I'm a Lycan Alpha."
"So what?"
“Ashanti, I came here to seek comfort, not condemnation. I would've stayed with Kyle and Ronald if I wanted that." He says, pouting his lips and giving me a stubborn look that makes me chuckle.
Tss.
He has no idea how cute he can be at times.
"Right. I'm sorry. What she did was wrong."
"Not wrong... it was diabolic! Why would she lie to me about getting raped when she wasn't? Only to cover up the fact that she lost her virginity to her boyfriend before me. It's not like I was going to reject her because of that. I wasn't a virgin either when I met her. As if that was not enough, she kept seeing him after we got together. She kept cheating on me with the same guy whose existence she had denied everytime I asked. She took me for a complete idiot!" Now he looks and sounds angry.
Sighing heavily, I take his big hands in mind and gently caress them while looking at him.
"I cannot say I understand how you feel, but I can see the pain in your eyes. It's devastating to find out that someone you loved with all your heart took you for a fool."
"I'm never going to see her again. Never!"
"You can't say that. She's still your mate."
"Mate my ass! Who knows what other lies she has told me. I never want to see her face again. I was determined to find out why the Moon goddess sent her back to me, but not anymore. I don't have feelings for her anyway. She'll have to keep living without me like she has been doing for the past years."
"Alpha Reagan, I think you might be overreacting."
"Overreacting?" He asks in a firm voice that makes me jump back in fear.
He's so mad.
Just then, he cell phone starts
ringing in his pocket and I expect et
him to take the call, but he doesn't. He ignores the call until it stops ringing.
A few seconds later, the phone starts
shoging again and he
no sign of taking it.Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!
"Aren't you going to answer your call?"
"I don't want to." He says in a tired, raspy voice.
"It could be important."
"I don't want to."
"Reagan. Pick up the call."
"Why do you..."
"Now!"
"Fine!" Grumbling, he takes out the phone from his pocket and answers the call.
"Yes. Who is it and what do you want?" He answers rudely and I watch his eyes grow wide in horror and his face grows ashen as he listens to the person speak. "I'Ikbe right there." He ends the call and turns to me.
"What's wrong?" I ask, alarmed.
"It's Selena. She cut her wrist and has been rushed to the hospital."
"Oh my God! Is she alright?” He rises from the couch and I do the same.
"That's what I'm going to check."
"Let me come with you."
"You don't have to."
“I insist. Come on!" I say, leading the way out of the living room.
I don't like Selena, but I don't want her to die either.
I hope nothing bad happens to her!
