Mates 76

Chapter 76 FREDA WHITLOCK Kaiden was furious and it was palpable. Even though Gia was feeling the same, she wouldn’t stop swooning whenever he snapped at Safiya. Today, I lost it, her sharp tongue grated on my nerves so badly that if skinning her alive was the last resort, I’d take it. I hated her. Every atom that made her what she was, I detested with every fiber of mine. This wasn’t a route I wanted to follow but she pushed me too much and there was no coming back from it now. She was insecure. F**k her insecurities. She should have known better but she just kept b**g around a man who wasn’t hers in the first place. What was I thinking? These were Gia’s thoughts, never mine! Kaiden had asked her to shut up, his aura filling the whole room forcing all the morphed-up energies of our wolves to flee. Gial was furious that he would do that to us. I could feel her whimpering in my head that he would silence us in that way. That was none of my business but because she was hurting for him, I felt a pang of pain as well. Safiya made to speak again, seemingly unyielding. I had seen. her go through different stages of shock today and was still 0.00% 10:38 Chapter 76 280 Moucharis unwilling to stop opening her vain mouth. The f**g mouth that I start off ripping if we ever would be in a situation that warranted. G***d, I hated her. However, before words could fall out of her mouth, we heard a soft, tiny voice call out to her. “Mommy” It was Harper. Her voice was pure, filled with trust and love and I felt pain jolt through me as I thought how unfair itNôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.

was that Safiya had birthed her. ‘Should I be thinking this way?’ I thought and shook my head. She was a mother in her own right despite being a terrible, person. We all turned to her on the bed and she stirred gently. Kaiden’s aura seemed to subside and all that was left was an air of relief around him. We scrambled toward Harper with Safiya the first to get to her. “Harper…baby,” She cooed and looked back, shooting us glares, “Get away from my daughter. All of you, stay back!” Angered by her declaration, I pushed her aside and occupied her spot beside Harper. I didn’t want her influencing the girl even before she spoke a word. “Freda-” She made to lunge forward again but this time, Lyra pushed her and I heard a thud. Oh Lyra, she actually pushed her Luna to the floor. But that was the least of my concerns for the moment, Safiya would be dealt with later. I faced Harper who seemed confused by the happenings. It was written all over her face as to why her 20.08% 10 38 < mother had been pushed away from her. Guilt gripped me but I pushed it to the back of my mind. “Harper, dear,” I called pushing her hair gently away from her face. Her heavy eyelids flickered to my face away from her father’s and she blinked “How do you feel, my dear?” I asked and she hesitated before speaking, “I feel fine” She croaked out. Her voice was h** and I guessed she must’ve been thirsty. Kaiden got to the glass of water beside the bed first and made her drink, lovingly. He looked relieved as he made her drink up. When she was okay, he shifted back, hesitant to leave his daughter’s side but he did and I was left to face her again. –

or not. There was still a hint of unsureness in her eyes whether to speak to me – the woman who just pushed her mom Her eyes darted to Cisco who was now beside me and she smiled lightly. Cisco acted indifferent but I could see the lingering excitement of seeing his friend awake in his eyes. Such a baby bear! I looked back at Harper, still stroking her hair. She seemed to relax a bit to my touch. I smiled, she was smart. “Harper, I’m glad you’re alright. Everyone was worried about you” I told her softly, “Dear, can you tell me what had happened? Do you remember who pushed you off the stairs?” I chose my words carefully in order not to scare her or make her feel wary. She nodded and I blinked. She did? My heart thumped in my chest in anticipation of her response. I trusted Cisco would never harm anyone but I couldn’t help the thought that he 43.58% | r 10:39 might’ve done it -Mistakenly from creeping into my mind “Was it Cisco I probed further and her eyes wandered to Cisco again, her gaze lingering on his frame beside me. The two shared gazes and seemed to be in some sort of telepathic communication that only their eyes were ing out their reactions. It was cute but at the same time testing. Tension had filed the room once again as the question was left hanging for about a minute “Stop questioning my daughter, fedal Harper dorst- Safiya! screeching voice was cut short by Kaiden’s neverberating voice His tone was hard and cold. Stop taiking Safya Hearing her father speak like that margen jerked fearfully and gulped. I turmed to shoot Kanden glare and he let out a sigh “Calm down Harper and tell me everything that happened. Please” I pleaded and she whimpered before starting to speak.

She spoke slowly explaining how she had gone out to play with a group of friends and to the port of the accident, *. And I fell off the stars’ She was trembling as she spoke Speaking of the incident had left her traumatic.

I fell off by myself and he came to save me but fell too” Upon hearing her confession, it felt like a laden had been lifted off my chest and I breathed a sigh of relief, feeling elated. Holding onto her trembling hands, I smiled at her, “Thanks Sweetie, for telling the truth”
