Pregnant And Rejected By My Alpha Mate By Caroline Above Chapter 46

Chapter 46

Selene‘s POV

We should have heard something by now. Luna huffs as I scrub dishes in the kitchen sink. After a simple dinner and a quick bath, Lila curled up on the sofa to watch her favorite show while I clean up. It‘s amazing how unfazed she is by the sudden change in scenery and my undoubtedly tense energy.

“Have to clean up your messes.” She advises sagely. “That‘s the rule.”

I adopt a pitiful pout. “You don‘t want to clean it for me?”

The little tyrant puts her foot down. “Uh–uh, your sponsibilty.”
