Alpha Hunter novel (Rayna and Hunter) novel Chapter 80

Chapter 80
Reyna Cruz
“Samuel,” I began, narrowing my eyes as he looked at me, “what do you mean by “no?”
“I mean, no! I can’t marry you. I replied calmly, despite the tension rising. Samuel raised his brow and tightened his grip on
his waist.
“Reyna, it’s not the time to dwell on the conversation you just had with him. Polline said, gently rubbing my back. She knew why I was questioning Sam so much. But she thought maybe that’s why I was saying no to the wedding as well.
While Samuel was grappling with his emotions and couldn’t understand what was going on in my head, Polline was trying to decipher my feelings behind the inquiries.
“Is that why you’re saying no?” Samuel asked, loosening his hand, from his waist.
“I’m upset because I found you kissing him. Obviously, I’m not going to respond perfectly,” Samuel’s tone shifted.
I knew he was angry, but beyond that, I couldn’t marry him now it wasn’t even about what he said, Hunter had made sure that he traps me well.
“I just can’t, I uttered, covering my face with my hands and shaking my head.
“Why?” Polline asked.
“Reyna, don’t be childish. I’m sorry, okay? We’ll deal with this issue. I’ll speak to Hunter and make him realize that this idea is bad and it will make Turner suffer. He’ll agree to joint custody, Samuel spoke differently now.
It hurt me to see him accept me even after watching me kiss my ex
“It’s not that,” I said, releasing my face from my hands and looking away as I hugged myself.
“Then what is it? Is it because I said random nonsense out of frustration?” he questioned, trying to hold my arms, but I stepped back.
Meanwhile, Polline was gently fixing my hair, her fingers moving slowly around the area where the new mark was. I began to wonder if she had seen it or was suspicious of it.
“No,” I replied, shaking at the thought of telling him why I couldn’t marry
him.
“Then? Did he blackmail you or something?” Samuel was slowly piecing together the reality. Before that, Polline gasped, and I turned to look at her. She kept her mouth covered but then straightened her back to avoid drawing attention. She had seen the mark but stayed silent. Did she think I didn’t want to tell Sam and marry him as well?
“Samuel, Hunter gave me two options,” I spoke softly, finally beginning to explain the whole conversation I had with Hunter.
“What options?” he grunted, already picking up on the heat
“He’s going to take Turner the moment he leaves this room,” I said, and Samuel nodded his head.
“So he’s already gone?” He didn’t even let me finish.
“Hear me out first,” I said. “Either he leaves with him, or I cancel the wedding and marry him instead”
As soon as those words left my lips, Samuel grunted, and Polling covered her lace with her hands because she already knew what decision I had made:

Chapter 80
“That jerk, Samuel threw another punch in the air and then calmed himself down by doing some breathing exercise.
70%
“It’s okay. I won’t let him get away with this. How dare he think he could ask my mate to marry him,” Samuel stood, still not understanding anything, and it was driving me nuts now,
“Samuel! I’ve already made my decision,” I said, noticing a frown on his forehead.
“Is that why you’re saying no to marrying me? Did you tell him you will marry him?” he finally understood, and the first thing he did was yell at me.
“How could you even think of doing this to me?” he screamed, trying to get to me when Polline pushed him away.
She had now become my shield.
“Reyna! Don’t let him blackmail you. Turner is his child too. So what if he gets full custody. Let him take the responsibility for a while. Turner will get back to you, he started the same suggestions once again. I could tell he thought I was worrying over nothing. But the thought of being away from my son was too much for me. His security was also my priority.
“Don’t let him blackmail you. Marry me, I will fix everything,” he insisted as he calmed his voice down.
“I can’t marry you anymore.” I closed my eyes, and before he could repeat himself again, I added, “because I have already marked and accepted him.”
It took me all my courage to say that, and the minute I finished saying that, I saw Samuel
go silent.
He took a few steps back and then started shaking his head.
“No! You are lying, You are saying this because you are upset with me over my nonsense, the way he was in disbelief made me feel even guiltier.
“Sam, I didn’t know what else to do, I couldn’t leave my son,” as I tried to explain, he returned and grasped my arms.
“So you left me? Was it that easy for you to drop me for your sore Was there no other alternative? It’s not like he was taking Turner to some other dimension, Reyna. You just dropped me over a deal that could have been easily avoided,” he began to scream and shake my body.
I was now hyperventilating. My skin was covered in goosebumps at the arrival of Sam’s wolf.
“You need to understand that she never would have done it if Tara wasn’t living there. Tara is a dangerous person. She had even ruined their first relationship so cun*ningly, Polline began to take my side, but Sam was ignoring her entirely now. I was also already so shaken up and guilty that I couldn’t fight for myself at the thought of doing him even dirtier.
I knew he would not understand, nobody would. So I let him take his anger out on me as much as he could. But I never thought he would cross all the limits when doing so.
“I will not let you humiliate me after I have stayed beside you and done so much for you,” he refused to let go.
“Samuel, please set her free,” Polline tried to free me, but Sam pushed her away, making her drop on the couch. I was now worried and anxious.
“I am going to mark you. Let the war between the mates begin then, as he announced his decision and dug his face into my neck, I lost my senses.
I did not expect that to happen.
“Not
Polline yelled when she saw what he was doing.
