Through The Eyes Of My Alpha Chapter 71

Through the eyes of my alpha Chapter 71

NADIA. The day I’ve been waiting for finally came. Riley decided it was time to meet his mother. Zahra flew from Atlanta with Leandro, but we decided that she would be the only one meeting Riley for now. We didn’t want to overwhelm my mate with Leandro and the twins. Zahra was already at the restaurant that Riley had booked when we arrived.

My heart was thudding loudly the moment I saw her sitting at our reserved table with a worried expression on her face.

I’ve never seen Zahra in such a state.

She was always classy, elegant, and full of confidence, even on those days when we talked about Riley.

I’d always see the longing in her eyes, but I’d never seen her confidence drop as low as the one I saw in her right now.

I walked towards her with Riley trailing behind me, and she stood up as soon as her gaze fell on us.

.

I had no idea what Riley was feeling at the moment because he had his wall up again.

My arms snaked around Zahra as she pulled me into a tight hug.

“You look lovely, sweetheart.

He was surely taking good care of you.

” She whispered in my ear, and I nodded my head in response.

“He does, and he’s very good at it.

” “I’m glad…” She replied as we let go of each other.

Her eyes were already on Riley’s, and I could see longing flitting in them.

I took a deep breath before I turned my head to look at my mate.

He was standing at least ten feet away from us, hands in his pockets with a stoic expression on his face.

I couldn’t read him.

He was really good at it.

Zahra cleared her throat before she spoke, a loving smile plastered on her face.

“Hi.

I’m Zahra.

Riley nodded his head before he moved closer and extended a hand.

“Riley.

Riley Adams.

” My gaze followed his hand, and my heart wanted to burst out in happiness when it clutched Zahra’s.

It was a good start.

They shook hands like they were just acquaintances, and I saw tears brimming in Zahra’s eyes, but she blinked them back away, while my mate’s eyes were showing no emotions, but he was looking straight into her.

It’s a good sign.

“Shall we take a seat?

” I broke the awkward silence, and it was only then that Riley withdrew his hand away from Zahra and pulled a chair for me to sit on.

The server came and we placed our order, but I didn’t find anything appetizing, so I just ordered a cream of mushroom soup.

“Are you sure that’s all you want to eat?

You almost ate nothing for breakfast either.

” Riley asked me as soon as the server went away.

His hand reached for mine at the top of the table.

I smiled at him before I answered him.

“I don’t have an appetite, but I can taste what you ordered.

Maybe if I end up liking it, then we can share.

” He smiled and squeezed my hand before withdrawing, and his face went back to its stoic state.

I turned my head to find Zahra looking at us.
