Accidentally Pregnant By My Alpha Best friends (Madeline) novel Chapter 294

294–My Desired Husband

Madeline:

“I couldn’t kick her out. She was my mother,” Baxter uttered as he sat down on the couch exhausted, after his mother had practically invited herself over.

“Did the kids eat the food?” he asked, pointing toward my children, who were now sleeping.

I hadn’t let my children leave the room after his mother arrived. He was the one who cooked the food and brought it for us. My children did eat, but I did not.

“Baxter, I think you should go back home,” I mumbled with a heavy heart.

He snapped his head toward me.

“What?” he asked, and I could tell he was trying to read my face, trying to understand what I was really dealing

with.

“It’s getting difficult. I don’t want you to carry so much pressure,” I continued. “As for me and my children, this cabin seems sturdy enough. I can start a good life here.”

I remarked without looking at him, but the way he had turned toward me told me he wanted to make eye contact.

“I want you to say that to me while looking at me,” he asked, almost demanding it.

“Baxter, I’m not saying this because I feel like it’s too much for me. I think it’s too much for both of us.”

I faced him again while sitting on the same couch.

“So wait, it’s that easy for you to ask me to leave?” he mumbled. The way his fist clenched told me he was talking about something else entirely.

“No, don’t change the subject.” He must have noticed I was about to say something else because he pointed at me. “I want to hear it from you. Is it that easy for you to forget about me, to ask me to leave?”

He demanded it again. This time, it felt like he was not going to give me a chance to lie or change the subject. He had been watching my face closely.

“Do you think,” I started to speak again, but he raised his finger and shook it at me.

“I want to know what your feelings are for me, Madeline,” he said firmly. “Because these people, I don’t care about them. The whole world can come and stay with me, and my priority will still be you.”

His words made me gulp and look away.

“You know, I don’t really want to answer you right now,” I said quietly. “As more people arrive, I know situations will change. I know there will be moments when you’ll be asked to take sides, and even though you say you won’t, it will become difficult for me. And when I have to leave you, it will hurt.”

I poured my heart out. I felt emotional because I had imagined becoming his wife for years. [1

Even after I left and entered the human world and married Sawyer, there were moments when I dreamed about Baxter, and those dreams broke me every time.

He had been my weakness for a long time, and when I thought he might become my strength, I realized I was

wrong.

He stepped closer and grabbed my hand, turning me toward him again. He placed both my hands in his lap and held them tightly.

“You won’t be disappointed,” he stated. “I’ll ask you this question again, and I swear you’ll happily confess next

time.”

He gently touched my cheek, running his fingertips over my skin before I pulled away.

“I know what you’re thinking,” he continued, noticing my reaction. “I’d like to speak with Gina, if you allow me.”

He mumbled this while watching my face, hope clear in his eyes.

“You don’t have to ask me. She’s your daughter,” I replied. “And you know what? You should have yelled at me and told me I was wrong. They’re your children too, Baxter. You’ve been more of a father to them than their own fathers.”

I took a breath.

“So no, I don’t ever want this to come between us. And if I ever say that again, you have every right to punish me.”

I spoke softly, my lips curving downward. When I lifted my eyes, I saw him smile.

“I know I need to grow up,” I added quickly, closing my eyes in guilt.

“No, you don’t,” he replied calmly. “You’ve already lost your childhood and your teenage years. You can be as childish with me as you want. As for Yuvonne and my parents, how is that any different from me running a pack? Think of them as people I’m responsible for. But you’re the one I have a relationship with.” 1

He looked at the children, then back at me.

“If you’re not comfortable, we can arrange another bed here. And for tonight,” he paused, moving his finger toward me, asking me to come closer.
