The Alpha Who Saved Me

CHAPTER 103

Declan

One step forward, and two steps back. That’s how I’m feeling right now where Quinn is

concerned. I shouldn’t have gotten upset with her because she was trying to help, but I

wish she would have come to me first. I know I’ve always questioned whether or not

Holden is really mine even after paternity was verified, but it’s already been a year and I

love the little guy with everything I’ve got. I’d give my life for him, so I’m not sure how I

would feel finding out that he isn’t really mine.

I’ve got to find a way to make things right with Quinn again, especially if we really are

mates. I never meant to make it sound like everything she has been going through is not

as important as my personal matters. I wasn’t thinking when I said what I said, but trying

to get her to talk to me, so I can explain, is going to be hard.

Quinn is hard-headed and stubborn, which are a few of the reason why I love her, but it

can be so frustrating when it’s turned on me. I’ ve tried calling her a few times this

morning, but she continues to ignore my calls, so all I can do is give her time, I guess.

she is the only one that she trusted to deliver it, so she came herself, but she didn’t want

to be the one to give it to you.”
