Pregnant And Rejected

Pregnant And Rejected By My Alpha Mate By Caroline Above Chapter 159

Chapter 159 Training with Helene.

Selene’s POV

There haven’t been many times in my life that I’ve felt like a genius, but I certainly do now. After my success with the reporters outside, was prepared to take on Dr. Kane, but I never expected to catch him out like this. As alarming and disturbing as his behavior has been throughout our conversation, I’m on the verge of making him admit he was working with Arabella, and that’s only a few steps short of making him admit he’s not Dr. Kane at all, but Frederic.

This man I once trusted, is looking at me as if he’s never seen me before. I’m afraid he’ll try to touch me again or profess his love, but I’m also afraid he might attack. It honestly seems like it could go either way. “I learned what Arabella was planning.” He admits hoarsely, seemingly unable to think of a lie in the moment.

“Because you were working with her.” I suggest. “Because you were helping her drive me away from Bastien.” Suddenly another detail clicks into place, “That’s why she was in the hospital the night she tried to push ‘me down the stairs isn’t it? She was coming to meet you and you made sure she overheard I was pregnant.”

“No.” He immediately denies, “she was never supposed to overhear that.”

“But she was there to meet you.” I press, feeling more powerful than I can remember being in quite some time. Moments ago this man was controlling the room, and now he’s pale and sputtering nervously because of me and I didn’t even have to use my powers.

“Yes.” He breathes in resignation. “We were working together. But Selene, you have to understand, it started out about Bastien, but when I met you, I realized we were meant to be together.”

“The Goddess would disagree.” I reply simply. “And so do I.” I’ve been walking a fine line this entire time, needing him to confess to being Frederic Durand, but knowing if I come out and ask or accuse him outright, he’ll deny it. “I don’t understand why you were working with her in the first place. If it was before you met me, what did you have against Bastien, has it always been about the power?”

“That’s it?” He asks, clearly offended. “I tell you I saved your life, and your pups life, and all you care about is why I worked against your husband?”

“Our lives never would have been in danger in the first place if it hadn’t been for your and Arabella’s schemes.” I remind him. “Do you expect me to thank you for that?”

He shakes his head, looking truly disappointed now, “You’re not who I thought you were.”

imagined, and Bastien isn’t the villain you’ve made him out to be either.” Turning towards the door, I leave him with one final thought, “The truth is a lot more complicated than you’re making it out to be, I’m here, if you want to talk further.
