Pregnant And Rejected

Pregnant And Rejected By My Alpha Mate By Caroline Above Chapter 126

Chapter 126 Get Out of the House

Bastien’s POV

The dial tone drags on and on, and my heart sinks deeper into my stomach with every moment that passes. Pick up, pick up, pick up !

Finally the line clicks open, only it isn’t Selene’s voice which answers. “Mommy’s phone!” Lila chirps happily.

“Lila?” My eyes fall shut as I revel in the sound of her sweet little voice. She’s safe. I tell myself firmly, if nothing else, I know my pup is safe.

“Daddy!” She squeals in excitement. “Is that you?”

“Hello angel.” I greet her warmly.

“Daddy, I miss you so much!” She exclaims.

“I miss you too, little one.” I reply earnestly, wishing I could see her lovely face, but knowing a video call is impossible when my own appearance is so disturbing at the moment. “I desperately want to talk to you, but I need to speak to Mommy first.” I explain,”Is she there?”

“She’s in da kitchen with Gamma.” Lila explains, sounding a bit disappointed not to have my full attention.

“Okay sweetheart can you put her on the phone?” I press, trying to keep my tone light even though Axel is going crazy with worry inside me.

“Daddy is something wrong?” She questions.

Before I can reply, I hear my mate’s voice in the background, and thank the Goddess for the beautiful sound, even distant as it is.

“Who are you talking to, Lila Bean?”

“It’s Daddy.” Lila peeps happily.

A few odd muffles travel through the line, but a moment later Selene’s voice sounds in my ear, strong and sure. “Bastien?”

Relief washes over me in a tidal wave. I know from her relaxed tone that all is well, but still I have to ask, “Baby, are you okay?”

“Of course, we’re just fine.” She answers, a flicker of unease entering her lyrical tone, “why, what’s wrong?

“You need to get out of the house, right now.” I advise her sternly, “All of you.”
