REAGAN'S POV.
Ten moments later, the entire atmosphere is still in graveyard silence. Selena staring straight into my eyes as she awaits my reply to her question andstaring right back at with a million thoughts running through my mind.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtI have an answer to her question.
In fact, I have many answers to her question.
Firstly, she's excruciatingly correct aboutnot being excited about her return. Second, the timing. It's the worst! I already have someone else in my life. A woman whom I live with all my heart. A woman I wan to spend the rest of life with. But of course I can't just spill it all out to her in this manner. It will shatter her heart into pieces.
"Selena." I finally break the silence, feigning an innocent look. "Why would you even ask that?" "Because I know you're not happy to seehere. I want to know why?" "And what makes you think I'm not happy to see you? Have I not treated you well since your arrival?" "You have. In fact, you've treatedbetter than expected, don't getwrong, I appreciate it. I'm sorry if I sound ungrateful, but there's just something about you that makesfeel like you're not happy abou my return." "Something like?" I ask with raised brows.
"The fact that you've been avoiding me... I know you said you had sbusiness to take care of, but i doubt that. I know you didnt cback because you didn't want to see me." Damn! She's hitting those nails right on the head! "Selena..." I try to speak but she quickly cutsoff.
"And there's something about the way you look at me. You avoid eye contact withand you've not stared at my face for a minute continuously since I came. You don't want to look my way. And finally your tone, your words... itself just... You don't wanthere, do you?" "Selena..." I call again and this taround, she doesn't cutoff. "It's not like I'm not happy about your return. It's just... it's been years, Selena. Five. Hood. Years. I was devastated when I lost you. I blamed myself over and over again. My wolf, King, went into depression. My life was miserable without you but I had to keep living, not only for myself, but for my subjects as well. I had to find a way to get over you, it was hard but I finally did. I had already accepted my fate only for you to show up again. I'm not gonna lie to you, Selena, I have mixed feelings." "Do you think I'm not me?" "I know you are you! And you have no idea how much I want to know what happened to you all this time. Where you've been. What you've been up to... Who hurt you..." she squints in surprise.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Hurt me." "Yes Selena. I can still remember the bruises I saw on your body yesterday. They showed the inflicted bruises. Someone hurt you. You don't have to say anything now. Take your time. I'll listen when you're ready to talk, but for now, I want you to know that I care about you and I promise I'll punish whoever did this to you." "You don't have to do that. What matters is that I'm back, alive." "Yes, that you are back and alive matters, but those responsible won't go free. Okay?" "Okay." She nods and I can see the hesitation in her eyes. She doesn't wantto ask questions about her past. She wants us to pick up from here but I can't do that.
I have to know everything. Every detail. What she has been up to from we the day she disappeared till now. "Can I ask you another question?" Here we go again.
I stare at her, long and hard. She wants to throw another bomb in my face and should avoid that by saying no, but I nod. "Yeah. Go ahead."
"Are you in love with another woman?" The context is on om The novelenglish.net! Kill. Me. Now.
