The Mystical Attraction of Alpha

Chapter 333

Cora picks up the third call and I narrow my eyes at her even though she can’t see me. I can tell she was screening my calls and only picked up because I’d never, ever triple-call her unless something had happened.

“Ella?” I hear her worried voice say, “what’s wrong?”

“I love you too,” she replies, with I don’t know what regret? In her voice?

But before I can ask more, she hangs up.
