Semua Bab Pregnant, I left him To His First Love: Bab 221 - Bab 230

Leila walks away the moment Tatum walks up to them, completely ignoring him. It is the first time she is seeing him since the rejection became complete and the matebond completely severed but she still feels uncomfortable being in his presence. She cannot feel her wolf yearning but something about being close to him still pulls her. Despite her anger towards him, despite her hatred, Tatum seems to still have an effect on her and she doesn’t want to deal with him right now, not with everything that she is going through. “Let me help you Leila,” Tatum calls after her but she keeps walking ahead. He runs up to her and pulls her back by her arm, putting some distance between them when she scowls at him. “I don’t need your help, I don’t need anything from you Tatum. I’ll bring the divorce papers to you and we’ll call it a lifetime between us, just, fuck you Tatum,” Leila says, her eyes brimming with tears as painful sorrow washes over her. He is the architect of all her problems. Eve

“Brother, what are you doing here?” Tatiana asks in a frenzy, shock and fear clear in her demeanour and Kelvin looks from her to the stranger, his heartbreak only compounding. Tatiana only mentioned sisters, she said she was an orphan and her sisters were the witches of her coven, some of whom he has met, invited into his home, wined, dined, shared jokes, laughed and had meaningful and thoughtful conversations with. How much more lies has she told him, does she even really love him or has he just been a fool? “We haven’t been officially introduced, I’m Antonio,” Antonio keeps his attention on Kelvin, completely ignoring Tatiana who flicks a dress on to cover herself, “but many call me the Lycan King.” Immediately the words leave Antonio’s lips, Kelvin feels a strong, lethal aura bearing down on him and never in his life has his wolf had a stronger urge to yield to the aura of an Alpha and he bows, shock and realisation hitting him at the same time and he looks sharply at Tatiana wh

Leila turns to look at the big wall clock hanging at the entrance of the courtroom with her heart racing. It’s the day of the trial and the opening statements have already been made by both parties. They are supposed to call Tatum on the stands now to give his testimony but he hasn’t returned yet from wherever he went to search for Kelvin. They spoke last night on the phone and he promised to be here early but she cannot even reach him now, not even through the mindlink. “Your honour, if the prosecution does not have a witness to present as they claim, you should save us all the trouble. Their accusation was baseless from the start, a waste of time. I implore the court to kick this case out,” Donald stands up and says with a confident smirk on his face. “If your witness is not here in the next ten minutes, you will leave me no choice, Barrister Bass,” Judge Ruth says calmly but her words create a storm of horror in Leila. She shakes her leg in trepidation, fiddling with her finger

Why the sudden change in attitude? It’s like Tatum doesn’t even care about her anymore. The last time she saw him this cold and nonchalant towards her was that day on the cliff? Is the monster back? Since she returned, all he has spoken about is earning her forgiveness, getting a second chance and for them to get back together but he openly flirts with another woman in front of her and acts this cold? She can’t deny it feels weird to be treated this way by him again. She thought she was completely over him or is she not? She can no longer find the raging and bitter anger she has been holding onto against him. Why? Could it be because she believes that he never truly meant to hurt her and that he was only protecting her? Before this very moment, his words have been consistent with his actions so far, perhaps that is why she finds this interaction too off putting and upsetting. He did not interfere with her mother’s case as he promised, he did not intervene to save Carmela’s f

Antonio can feel Leila’s apprehension and fear whenever she is around him and he normally wants people to fear him, it is why he has built the reputation that he has, because his magic feeds off the fear of people, allowing him to take control of their minds and bend their thoughts to his will but for this kitten, it is different, for some reason, he doesn’t want her to fear him. He tries to take that fear away when they are together and he reins in his true dark aura to the minimum so she can be more comfortable in his presence. Strange it is to him and intriguing still. It is not the matebond, he knows because he did not feel this way about his original mate. He sees her hesitation when he asks to have tea with her to wrap up the night they have and he eagerly waits for her to answer, maybe he can get a taste of the kitten just before he disposes of her. “Sorry but uh…I’m not used to this, it’s new to me, maybe some other time,” Leila replies calmly with her ethereal smile.
