Novel & Cerita If He Had Been With Me Back Cover

"I don't understand why either. Since the first time we met, Kinn even admitted that you were the mate I was looking for. Your scent connected me and it proved that I could do it with you. Then you disappeared and I was paralyzed again as before. That's why I was looking for you. Then, when I found you, you even had the twins and they were my seed from that time." Audrey took a deep breath. "I thought you had forgotten me because I think a man like you will definitely not lack women to fill your life. That's why I came back here, because I think it's safe. My only fear is that you will look for me because of the money I used."

At his collar, at the back of his neck mine were. He led me backward to the door and I did not inquire of him where we were going because I knew, as I had always known with him, where to go, the same as the mate bond had always been three steps ahead of all my efforts to think my way through. The room was cozy. Someone had maintained the fire.

But trust had nothing to do with it because this was not about him, it was about the people behind me, and I had never once in my life been able to turn my back on them. I wiped my face with the back of my hand. “Fine,” I said quietly. “I’ll go.“​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

He had a confused look on his face. "I thought you left recently. Why are you back again? Did you lose something?" he asked me. I felt a bit angry because I knew that he was going to question me. What does he even mean by did I lose something? “ I did not lose anything. I am back, and I want you to welcome me. I'm ready to stay with you again. And, honestly, I'm really, really, really happy that this is going to work out for us," I said to him. He looked at me a bit angrily but pretended as he opened his hand widely and hugged me.

But if he hadn't found out yet, I would have loved to blow it in his face. Didn't he say me being fated with Janna was an impossible thing? Well, the Goddess knew how to make the impossible possible. "Well, just the man I was looking for." I heard someone talking behind my back. I already felt a presence behind me beforehand and knew it must be the Beta, but I didn't bother to look. "Don't tell me you missed me?" I chuckled as I turned around and extended my hand for a handshake. He took it and began shaking it firmly.

I ask in a low tone. "Leaving you, Becca. You being here makes leaving you harder. How am I supposed to get over you when you are just next door?" I lick my lips and grin. "So, you are not over me?" He takes a step back and takes a deep breath. "Of course I am." He doesn't look at me when he says this. "That's why I'm with Sophie."

Looking behind me… He's gone.

Maybe I was pushing my luck back there? -- END

“You nearly died twice for me. I’m allowed to appreciate the view.” A faint smile curves his mouth in the mirror. He reaches for his shirt, and that’s when I see it. Just below his left shoulder blade. Partially hidden. Dark ink against scarred skin. My breath catches. “Cole,” I say slowly. “Don’t move.” He freezes. That alone tells me everything. I step closer, heart starting to pound. “What’s that on your back?” He exhales through his nose. “Nothing.” “That’s not nothing.” He turns slightly, trying to angle away, but it’s too late. I’ve seen it clearly now.

of all people. “Here” I see his hand extending from my back to my side with a jacket on it. I look at it for a couple seconds thinking if I should take it or not. “Use this to cover your back” he coldly said. Damn, I couldn’t compromise with him! This is so stupid but have no choice. It’s either I accept it and go home or I’ll be stuck here waiting for him to get irritated and leave me instead. Whatever! I badly needed it now.
