Bad Love: An Alpha's Regret (Leah and Aaron) novel Chapter 111

Chapter 111 

AARON 

I shift back and brace to fight. 

There are letters strewn across the floor and mattress and Leah’s screaming. 

It’s a cry of pain and rage that chills me to the bone. 

I sling my arms around her. “Calm down. You’re alright.”

She doesn’t get laid out like this. Every other time life punched her down, she’s gotten back up. 

“Just read it,” she whispers after a while. 

Tears leak from the corners of her closed eyes and I want to kiss them away. 

“Don’t touch me,” she says with her eyes still closed. “Just read
