Semua Bab Let Me Go, Alpha Calhoun : Bab 181 - Bab 190

Kristen's POV"We met at the club, and heck I wasn't drunk. I had someone else with me and your husband's beta was already in the company of women. My escort turned out to be a jerk, he wanted to forcefully take me inside the club's restroom, despite all of my protests, and Bruce happened to stop by. Guess he had his eyes on me the entire time," Maddy's voice sounds muffled because she's snarfing down some chocolate chip cookies.I am still stupefied as she narrates her very first night with Bruce. We're in my car, with all the guards excused. And I am letting my best friend talk as much as she wants because she's a bit at ease with just me alone."Bruce saved me from the retard, he drove me home in his car. And when I invited him for drinks, it just happened," her mouth is full when she takes a gulp, and it makes her eyes even watery because she was in tears earlier."Was it once?" I ask in the most friendliest way possible because I don't want to sound offensive upon knowing she's n

Kristen's POVAfter taking one last look at Aiden to ensure he's asleep in his crib, I quietly shut the door before hurrying to meet my friends in the room opposite mine. The feast ended quicker than I thought because of the tension from earlier, my guests couldn't be at ease anymore, Sapphire's sudden announcement of pregnancy to Bruce whose outburst threw everyone off guard. Calhoun sensed the uneasiness and calmly dismissed everyone, after ordering the servants to give them gifts to help make the evening less bad for them. My husband is such a lifesaver, if I hadn't done that I don't even know what would have become of me. My first feast would have ended up in an absolute disaster.Sapphire's cries ring in my head when I open the door to the dimly lit room. "Hey," I gently place a hand on her shoulder, offering comfort because she's been like this for an hour. Maddy doesn't even show any signs of pity or make any move to come close to our friend, she's just staring at Sapphire

Kristen's POVAt last, Calhoun came back. At the sound of heavy feet approaching the door, I know it's him.Thankfully, he's home at last. So many bad things have been happening to us lately for me to fall asleep so easily, so I have to be vigilant and alert at all times. It's one thing to have your husband leave and then return safely, because since I've known Calhoun, he's either getting poisoned, stabbed, and even attacked. He's the strongest person I know because he's managed to survive everything. And I pray we don't get to suffer as a couple again because we've already been through so much together, including Aiden.Quietly, Calhoun opens the door because he's aware it's already past bedtime for our son who is currently asleep, so Calhoun doesn't want to make any noise to upset Aiden while he's asleep.He's a great father and he's great with our son. It's his first time being a father and he's already so good at it. A smile hits my face when I realize he just noiselessly clos

Kristen's POV"Are you sure about this?" Maddy cannot hide her discomfort as she nears my side on the dressing mirror, holding Aiden.It's noon the following day, and I have this meeting with all Greyhound women."To be honest, I don't even know. I keep seeing his face everywhere and then I act up. Flinch when someone approaches me from behind or calls my name when I am zoning out," My hand trembles along with the lipgloss in my grasp because I shuddered from the dreadful experiences I've been having since the nightmare in the early hours of this morning. "This is getting serious, you need help," Maddy props Aiden on her hip and looks at me with worry making her forehead lines visible. Sapphire couldn't show up because she doesn't want to run into Bruce, so she's keeping out of his way for good."You seriously need help, my friend," Maddy repeats."I don't want Calhoun to think I am too much trouble, it's been one problem after the other," My shoulders sag as I heave deeply."The sam

Kristen's POV"What are you doing?" Sapphire has this unsure look on her face as she stares at me. I drove her all the way down here a few minutes ago. And the place is already set up for the date, just the way I was told by Bruce."Just relax, friend," I assure her with a friendly smile, before jabbing my shoulder against hers, to make her feel at ease."Is this a date?" Sapphire has her head swinging in different angles and directions. Bruce really outdid himself on this one. Renting the entire expensive diner just for tonight, so he could get some alone time with her."Yes, for me and Calhoun. And I want you to be present too," I answer at last, schooling my face into a straight expression so she won't suspect anything just yet."Do you feel that bad for me?" Sapphire has a dull facade this time, totally getting the wrong idea of everything."No, not at all. You just need to be here tonight. This place is already fancy as it is," I flip her long hair away from her shoulder."Fine,"
