Her Cold-Hearted Alpha Chapter 89

Heartbeat

KIARA

I walked to the bed feeling his eyes were stuck on me , I didn’t miss the predatory look in his eyes , and

I hated that it made m y core throb . He wasn’t even wearing a shirt and just seeing him like that was

making me drool .

I looked away and quickly got in bed , picking up the selenite pendant I had left near my phone . ” I

wouldn’t trust anything a witch gives you . ” He said moodily , putting his phone down . ” It has nothing

dark or evil coming from i t . ” I replied . ” She said it would conceal .

Could it work o n your aura or some shit ? ” He said , now getting up from the two – seater sofa and

coming over . Our eyes met and I knew he could hear my wild heartbeat . ” I don’t know … ” I said ,

shrugging . He took it , examining it before he held it out ..

” No fucking clue . Witches are not very likeable ; they have tempers and truly hate our kind . I wouldn’t

accept anything from them . ” He said , his eyes full of resentment , the same resentment I had seen in

the witch’s eyes . ” I still think we need to get past all the age -old hate .

” I said , placing the pendant down . ” Maybe fucking so . ” He said . His eyes met mine and I realised

how intimate this was … We were alone in a bedroom … He leant in closer . My heart raced , while he

smirked mockingly as I leant back against the headboard . ” Relax , I told you .

If you want something , you’re going to have to fucking ask for it . ” With those words , he grabbed the

other pillow and moved back , leaving my heart a mess . I placed a hand on my chest , taking a deep

breath the moment he turned his back to me . My eyes fell on his fine ass and I bit my lip , damn …

I saw him toss the pillow on the ground before he settled down . The Lycan King himself was settling

for the ground ? I had actually thought he’d take the other side of the bed ” Do you want something

Amore Mio ?

Because if you keep on fucking looking at me like that , I won’t be able to control my actions … ” He

said , his deep voice sending my stomach fluttering . ” No , I was just … Never mind . If you want you

can sleep on that side … ” I said , my cheeks burning .

No , I was not ready to get intimate , but it hurt seeing him on the floor . His eyes were shut but he gave

a cocky smirk . ” Thanks for the fucking offer but I assure you , if I get on that bed , I won’t be able to

control myself . ” He said , sending my heart racing . ”

I wanted to tear your clothes off every time I saw you before this fucking mate bond , so just think how

much stronger that feeling is now . ” ” His eyes now met mine and I felt my cheeks burn . ” Good point ,

stay on the floor . ” I said , turning and switching the lights off from near the bed and settling down to

sleep . Trying not to focus on his scent or his presence …

ALEJANDRO

I don’t know what time it was when my eyes flew open , I had just had a fucking trip down memory lane

, back to that dreaded night … I sat up , taking a deep breath and inhaling her delicious scent . That

calmed me as I ran a hand through m hair .

That shit always came back sometimes , just to remind me … I looked a t the bed , I couldn’t see her

face from this angle , just the curve of her breasts rising and falling with every deep breath she took … I

closed my eyes , lying down again , listening to the beat of her heart and not wanting to focus on

anything else .

My own heartbeat blended with hers , the odd car driving by outside and the faint snores of whoever

was in the room next door merging too . I let it lull me back into sleep , but just before I dropped off a

new sound caught my ear , a very faint heartbeat coming from this very room and this time I recognised

exactly what it was . The heartbeat of a newly created life .

I stood up , my heart pounding wildly as I looked at the sleeping nymph on the bed and made my way

over to her . I crouched down , slowly moving her blanket back as I stared at her taut stomach that was

on display , her cami had risen up to her waist . Leaning closer , I closed my eyes , focusing past her

strong heartbeat and . her scent that was driving me nuts .

My heart skipped a fucking beat and my stomach twisted when I heard it . I moved back suddenly as

the heavy weight of realisation struck . Kiara was pregnant and there was only one person who could

possibly be the father . Me . Fuck .

I ran my fingers through my hair . This wasn’t meant to happen … Shit … I had knocked her up and I

hadn’t even had the chance to fucking redeem myself … The chilling words of the witch , now returned

t o me .

‘ If ever this were to happen … run . ‘ She fucking knew … My heart was racing faster than a fucking

racehorse and my head was spinning . Kiara was in more danger than ever before … and now I had a

fucking pup to deal with .

I was about to be a father … And I was not ready for this . We weren’t in the right fucking space as

mates or frame of mind as people . More than that , she was only fucking eighteen … I did not want to

burden her with shit like this . I fucking messed up big time …

I knew the risks of things being different for me than regular Alphas were high … But I had still let

myself get caught up that day … I sat on the edge of the bed , my head spinning . Fuck .

What the hell do I do ? Another thing the witch had said came to my mind and I looked at the selenite

pendant . She said it would conceal … Did she by any chance actually want to help ? Picking it up , I

looked at the sleeping Kiara and slowly tied the pendant around her neck .

She whimpered in her sleep , rubbing her cheek against my hand . She could be so fucking cute … I

moved back after the pendant was in place and closed my eyes . Listening . Well fuck … I couldn’t hear

the heartbeat . I removed the necklace quickly , and once again I could hear the tiny heartbeat . I’d

have to ask Kiara to keep it on tomorrow . It seems like that irritating spell – spewing old bag was good

for something .

Selenite wasn’t something used for dark magic anyway …. And Kiara would have known it had dark

magic . Feeling a little more assured , I placed it down . And the fucking million – dollar question hit me

. How do I tell her she’s pregnant ?

Do I even tell her ? What the fuck do I do ? So many questions , but I had no answers a s I looked

down at the fucking goddess who was sleeping so peacefully . ” I’m so fucking sorry … ” stroking her

silky locks off her face . ” I said quietly , Her eyelids fluttered open , as she looked a t me sleepily .

” Can’t sleep ? ” She mumbled drowsily as she scooted over , tapping the bed next to her , her head

dropping as sleep threatened to overtake her . I didn’t reply a s she patted the place next to her again .

Get in . 11 I hesitated , but after that revelation , I think I could definitely control myself .

I climbed under the sheets and she smiled sleepily before she snuggled completely into my chest ,

making my heart go fucking crazy . I slowly wrapped my arms around her , maybe even hesitantly . I

never liked a woman in my bed . Ever .

But holding her , felt so perfect … so right … Her breathing became deeper as she relaxed once more .

” I love you . ” She murmured in her sleep , making me freeze.co A thousand emotions coursed through

me as I looked at the woman I had broken , a woman who was still willing to give me a chance …

Who fucking loved me as much a s I loved her … Yet neither of us were able t o tell the other . Not

openly , not properly , not yet … Would I ever get the chance to make things right ? Or would this

revelation further the distance between us ? I had destroyed something between us before it even had

a chance to be whole … and now throw a fucking pup in the middle .

Things just went from bad to fucking messy . I would have to tell her sooner or later , or she’ll pick up

on it herself … Unlike regular werewolves who would be able to pick up a pup’s heartbeat after 6-8

weeks , I was able to pick it up a lot earlier .

I kissed the top of her head slowly , closing my eyes . I’d deal with that shit when the time comes … But

right now I just need to time comes … But ri now I just need to sleep on it … I held her tightly , trying

not t o focus on the way she placed her knee betyleen my legs . She sure loved to fucking snuggle .

I looked down at her , sighing deeply . Wishing I hadn’t refused her that night … Why couldn’t I have

just ignored my fucking head ? I won’t hurt her , I couldn’t … Just the thought of it makes me sick . I

had to believe in myself . I would die before hurting her .

Resting my head on top of hers , I closed m y eyes , I swear she’ll fucking blow tomorrow morning

when she sees us like this … but too fucking bad . She asked for it , although I have to admit she was

half asleep . Oh well , who cares ?

With those last thoughts I smiled slightly , holding her tight and thinking of how things could have been

if I had accepted her , of maybe how things could still be …. Moonlight Muse Author Thank you for
