Love Unbreakable

To Bite Off More Than One Can Chew It took a lot of courage for Raegan to speak up.

During the past years when Lauren was with Mitchel, Raegan had hidden her feelings and only admired Mitchel in secret.

Time had etched these habits deep into her soul, and old habits died hard.

And now she was trying to bite off more than she could chew.

Sure, she was aware she was naive, but she wanted nothing more but to best Lauren.

The sense of helplessness she felt, knowing that Lauren was behind everything yet being unable to make Lauren pay, gnawed at her.

Lauren was an expert in pulling Mitchel's strings.

Why couldn't she do the same? Especially now, she had the upper hand.

She was, after all, carrying Mitchel's child.

But when Raegan finally spoke up, Mitchel met her words with a heavy silence.

Panicking, Raegan looked away, extricated herself from his arms, and added, “If you don’t want to talk about it, that's fine.” Mitchel knitted his eyebrows together and pulled her back into his arms.

"What do you want to talk about then?” His words implied that he was intrigued by the topic.

Raegan pursed her lips and said, "I know Lauren has helped you in the past.

But how long are you planning to return the favor? Is there an expiration date for your gratitude, or is this going to go on for the rest of your life?” If Mitchel intended to look after Lauren forever, she would give up on him.

She was just too exhausted to go on this way.

Mitchel lowered his gaze and gently brushed her nose with his thumb.

"Why do you care about Lauren so much? Are you jealous?" Raegan gave a straightforward nod, which took Mitchel by surprise and made him smile.

With a pleased smile, he leaned down to find her lips and kissed her passionately.

"You should know I have no feelings for her beyond gratitude.” However, Raegan was dissatisfied with his reassurance.

Mitchel had said this before, but he always ended up choosing Lauren over her.

"Every time I have a conflict with her, you side with her.

Just because I don't complain doesn't mean it doesn't get to me.” She lifted her eyes to meet his, and her thick eyelashes seemed to graze his soul.
