Accidentally Pregnant By My Alpha Best friends (Madeline) novel Chapter 51

51–I Feel Rejected

Graham:

“What?” I asked her in bewilderment. I wanted her to repeat herself because I swore I had heard her wrong.

“Graham, I don’t want anyone to find out,” she repeated, louder and clearer this time, shocking me.

“You don’t want anyone to find out that I’m mates with you?” I asked, trying to be sure, trying to understand if she was really that embarrassed to be my mate.

“You don’t understand, Graham. I don’t want anyone to talk about us. And neither do I want-” She paused, looking away.

“No, say it. You don’t want me as your mate. Is that it?” I asked, my heart pounding in my chest. It stung deeply that she didn’t want to be with me.

“Think whatever you want,” she replied. “But the truth is, we need to make sure this whole thing just ends and…” She gasped suddenly, slapping her forehead. “Oh gosh, how will your wife react to this?”

“Is that it? Are you worried about my wife?” I asked, trying to figure out what was running through her mind.

“No, Graham, it’s not just your wife. You need to understand, I have a husband too,” she started, making me roll

my eyes.

I didn’t know why she kept lying about having a husband. I knew the truth, she was a single mother. But why wasn’t she happy to know that I was her mate?

It took me back to when she used to wait desperately for my response. She had a crush on me once and wanted me to accept her, but I didn’t.

I had my reasons, but there were moments when I could have texted her and let her know how I felt, but I didn’t.

I should have tried harder because, over the years, she might have built some resentment toward me. Or maybe she had just stopped loving me.

So it wasn’t really her fault that she seemed done with the idea. But I never thought she would be so upset to find

out that we were mates.

“Anyway, can you please go and tell them that we’re not ready to give any interviews right now? I need to get back to my suite, change into my own clothes, and gather my thoughts first,” she said, looking tired as she headed toward the bathroom.

I stood still, feeling rejected. Was this how she had felt when she found out that we didn’t want the babies?

I seemed to be in her place now rejected and unwanted.

Then my phone started to beep. Seeing Kaylee’s name flash on the screen already felt like bad news. The timing couldn’t have been worse.

“Hello?” I greeted as I picked up the call, but she immediately began throwing a tantrum.

“So you’re not at the pack next town? You lied to me just so you could go and be with that whore?” she shouted through the phone, sniffling and gasping for air.

“Calm down, Kaylee. And how many times have I told you not to use that word for her?,” I warned her, but it only made her angrier.

“I want you back right now. Right now!” she screamed into the phone.

I could hear my father grunting and arguing with Mr. Robinson in the background, demanding to know how he didn’t realize where I had gone.

But he couldn’t have known, I hadn’t told him which pack I was heading to.

“I’m not going back until I’m done with this task. You heard me, Kaylee, and stop trying to control me,” I hissed, reminding her that controlling me wouldn’t work anymore.

I could hear the shock in her voice on the other end of the line. But as soon as I saw Madeline come out of the bathroom, I instantly ended the call to face her.

“Who was it?” she asked, her wet hair clinging to her shoulders.

“No one. No one important,” I replied, gesturing for her to stay back so I could tell the others we weren’t ready for an interview yet.

I stepped out and told them it was inappropriate for them to show up like this, and that they needed to wait until we were back home.

Madeline had children she needed to check on.

They apologized and left, but I wasn’t sure they understood what they had done.

Sadly, I was worried about how Madeline would react once she found out that my wife had already called angry because she’d seen something on the live broadcast.

Still, I wasn’t sure what exactly had been shown or what the cameras had caught, things I couldn’t check in front of Madeline. It would only frighten her.

After I was sure the reporters had left, I walked Madeline out of the cabin and took her to my car.

I had a bad feeling that sooner or later, people would start coming after us, trying to take pictures and follow our every move.

So I hurried her along and helped her into the passenger seat.
