Her possessive alpha novel Chapter 88

　　Crying session

　　Kiara spotted Keisha coming towards this door holding a tray in her hand, she’d come to serve Cian’s food and she knew the maid would catch her eavesdropping if she remained here, she had to leave this place now. She would not be able to hear the rest of the conversation but what she heard was enough for her to draw her conclusion; she knew that there was no way that Cian would reject his mate’s offer to get back together, not after hearing all that she’d done for him. Who was she kidding when she thought that Cian truly loved her? This was why she wanted to be on her own, none of this would have happened if she didn’t let her hopes get so high, and now, she had no one but herself to blame for all the hurt she’s feeling right now.

　　She let the tears stream down freely as she ran back to her room, not that she would blame Cian if he later came to tell her that he’d be reuniting with his mate, she wouldn’t blame him for his decision at all. His mate had paid such a hefty price just to save his life, and compared to that, she knew she didn’t stand a chance.

　　Her dinner had already been served on her table when she entered, Keisha must have probably brought it in when she wasn’t around. The aroma almost had her hooked, this servant had done a good job in preparing this food and it pained her that such nice food would have to go to waste because she wasn’t in the mood to eat at all, not after hearing all that she’d just heard, not after knowing that Cian would step into this room any moment from now and tell her he’s sorry for breaking his promise that he loves her, he’s sorry that he has to go back to his mate, he’s sorry that he has to leave her. She’s not in the mood to eat at all, all she wants to do now is to cry as much as she can, to cry and remind herself of her lonely and miserable life.

　　She dropped onto her bed and slumped, burying her head into her pillow. She would not stop crying until this whole pillow was soaked, and after it was, she’d take another dry pillow and continue crying until she cried herself to sleep.

　　**********

　　After a VERY long talk with Stephanie, Cian realized that it was already night time when she left his room. It was already night time and he hadn’t seen Kiara since this evening when they arrived here. It had only been a few hours, but to him it felt like days. He spotted his untouched food on the table that Keisha had quietly served while he was still in conversation with Stephanie, he was starving and the food tempted him but he decided that could wait. He wanted to go and see Kiara now, there’s something he has to tell her and now he’s never been so sure of this his new decision. He just hoped that Kiara hadn’t fallen asleep yet.

　　**********

　　Kiara raised her head from her pillow the minute she heard her door open, she’d heard the knock, but decided to ignore it not because she thought that Cian had already come to deliver his heartbreaking news, but because she didn’t want anyone to interrupt her crying session. She’d been crying for hours now, and still the tears didn’t want to stop.
