All Chapters of I Came Back For My Alpha and Mate: Chapter 41 - Chapter 46

KaneThe engine purred beneath me as I drove, but my thoughts roared louder than anything. The road ahead blurred as the weight in my chest tightened with every passing second.What mess has my heart gotten itself into? Among all the women to crave, it had to be my best friend's, fated mate.Damn it! I gripped the steering wheel harder, knuckles pale. The morning had been a mess, and I had tried so hard to keep myself composed. But watching her sit at that table, her eyes darting away every time I looked at her, it tore something inside me. It reminded me that she wasn't really mine.If only she had told me sooner, I would have kept my distance, I wouldn't even have fucked her or maybe not. But she should have told me regardless!

Could it have been Tessa?Of course not, she was right there with me when it arrived. I saw the jealousy in her eyes.Could it have been Mia? The thought turned my stomach. Has she found me?
