Bad Love: An Alpha's Regret

Chapter 231

Leah hurries toward me, and I can see she’s pale and confused about all the carnage she’s found on

this mountain.

The place where I brought her for a romantic getaway when things between us were beginning to

change.

The place where she almost died on me the first time, because I had no idea her fragile human body

was dying from cancer,

At this point, I’m not even surprised James brought her here, though I do shoot him an angry look,

which he shrugs off as if to say it’s my own fault.

He’s probably not wrong.

And maybe this is better.

Maybe by Leah seeing the lengths our enemies are willing to go to in order to strike against me, she’ll

better understand why I did what I needed to do.

“Aaron,” she whispers as she stops in front of me. “What happened here?”

“Our enemies attacked,” I said. “Maybe Tobin, because he knew I wouldn’t be here, and wouldn’t be

able to stop this from happening”

“Stop what from happening?” Leah asks me in confusion.

Instead of answering, I step aside so she can walk into the cabin.

She sends me another look of confusion, before going inside.

She pauses at the sight of more dead wolves.

And Lillian

“What is the Rathborn pack nanny doing here?” she asks, shaking her head sadly. “And why would

anyone want to kill her?”

I can’t answer, the words are stuck in my throat

I wish I could do anything to save her from the pain she’s about to experience.

Leah looks even more deeply bewildered, but then something catches her eye on the bookshelf.

She rushes over and sn atches up the framed photo Lillian put up of me holding Ethan on the day he

was born.

“Oh my go d!” Leah gushes, and immediately, tears stream down her face. “Aaron, he was so small,

and so beautiful.”

“Yes, Leah, he is beautiful,” I reply, and she looks up sharply. “Our son, Ethan, is everything good in

this world.”

“I don’t understand…” Leah begins, but then she notices the door to the nursery standing open, and

rushes across to see it.

I follow her at a slower pace, stopping in the doorway as she stands in the middle of the room and

spins in a slow circle.

Once she’s taken it all in, she reaches into the crib and reverently picks up a softly knitted blanket.

She brings it up to her face, and scents her son for the first time.

Her expression is one of love and longing and even deeper confusion

“Aaron..” she says slowly, and I can see the truth dawning on her features. “This scent is fresh. From

just a few hours ago.”

“Yes,” I reply, because what else is there to say?

I thought I’d done everything in my power to protect our child-keeping his existence secret even from

his own mother-yet I failed

him.

And I failed Leah

The two most important people in my life, and they’ve been wronged in so many ways.

And now my son is out there somewhere with my enemies, and I don’t have the first clue where to start

looking for him.

But my enemies have made a mistake. They’ve crossed a line today they can’t uncross, by involving

the life of my innocent son.

Whoever took Ethan, not only will I kill them.

I’ll wipe out their entire families first. Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.

“You’re saying…” Leah continues in a halting voice, like she can’t quite wrap her mind around it.

“It’s exactly what it looks like, Leah,” I say with resignation of the imminent explosion. “Our son is alive.

I’ve been keeping him here in secret. But now, someone had abducted him.”
