Pregnant And Rejected

Pregnant And Rejected By My Alpha Mate By Caroline Above Chapter 74

Chapter 74 The Letter

Selene’s POV

This isn’t happening.

It can’t be real.

I’m frozen in place, staring at Odette as if she’s a ghost. I must have misheard her. But if that’s the case, why does she look so distraught? Why are there tears in her eyes? And where is my pup?

I swing my gaze from her to Bastien, whose hands are locked in white knuckled fists at his sides. He’s breathing heavily, his eyes glowing and fangs extended. My first reaction was disbelief. His apparently was fury.

Bastien’s gaze descends on me, and I feel my lower lip begin to tremble uncontrollably. It’s not real. I think desperately.

Luna is frantic, lashing out our heightened senses to every corner of the room in search of Lila and coming up empty. “What do you mean she was taken?” I choke, “How could that happen, weren’t you watch ing her?”

“I’m so sorry, Selene.” Odette professes sincerely. “I turned my back for one moment and she was gone!”

What?!.can’t help blaming Odette a little when I realize Bastien is crossing the room towards me, a de termined look in his molten eyes. I back away from him, shaking my head in denial and trying to stay out of his reach even as his muscular arms extend towards me.

“No!” I insist, swatting at his hands. I don’t want to be cuddled. I don’t want to be comforted. I want my pup. “Don’t Bastien!”

He doesn’t listen, growling dominantly and dragging me into his embrace no matter how hard I fight.

Eventually my flailing limbs and defiant snarls give way to sobs. It isn’t real. I think again. She isn’t gone. My hands go from pushing my mate away to trying to climb completely into his arms. He lets me, lift ing me off the ground and rocking me gently back and forth.

Gentle, soothing purrs vibrate against my cheek and soft lips press to my hair. “Shhh little wolf.” Bastien croons. “We’ll find her.” He promises, an edge of steel in his deep voice, “You have my word if it’s the last thing I do, I will bring her home.”

All I needed was a little leverage to hold against Selene in order to convince her to leave Drake, and her pup would certainly provide the motivation.
