Mated To My Promised Alpha
Kara
I switch on the phone in my trembling hand, struggling to press the buttons. The screen lights up and I see the car’s driver slowing down as they approach me. Jamal is long gone and I’m left shaken on the curb. Goddess, what should I do?
I search for Gabriel's number and press the dial button, my heart racing. His voice comes through the other end of the line and I break down. “Ka, what happened?” His gentle tone is a stark contrast to the sobs and dry heaves. I managed to stay strong until now, but it’s all too much! I can sense his panic, but I can’t find my voice to speak.
