The Alpha Who Saved Me

CHAPTER 103

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

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

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.”
