After She's Terminal The Alpha Regrets (Elaine and Lucas) novel Chapter 209

Chapter 209

Ayla’s anger did not subside at the maid’s fleeing state. A maid. Another woman in this household for Lucas to ogle at, she should have that girl fired. Right on the spot.

Lucas…

Ayla’s heart ached. Where was he? Or….

Perhaps Lucia had failed to dispose of Elaine. Perhaps Lucas and Elaine had eloped together in England to live out their days in the countryside.

“You cheating little lying mother–” Ayla began.

The front door opened.

She whirled around to see who it was with an expression that could kill. When she saw it was Kyle, she straightened up and calmly kicked the pieces of pottery beneath the table. Then she moved around the table and hurried toward the kitchen.

Liam’s gaze swept over the living room before landing on her.

Ayla tried to keep her expression level. “How would I know? I’ve been bedridden all this time Lucas had been gone. Having him so far away…”

“Can you sense him?” Kyle asked suddenly

Ayla paused. “What?”

“Lucas marked you before. Several months ago now, when your illness worsened.” Kyle gestured to her

neck

Ayla blinked in surprise. Right. That mark. She remembered that quite well. Elaine had walked right into the room when it happened. Back when Ayla actually had been ill, it had taken a turn for the worse.

It had given her the strength to recover and then some. But since then? Well, ever since it had faded so que kiy

Whim the first month, she couldn’t even feel Lucas‘ emotions anymore Now she felt utterly nothing from it because she and Lucas had never done anything to keep the mark stable

fight as well have been a scar upon her neck.

Of course I can. He is quite alright, I just know it! He ruust be.” Ayla said.

“You absolute heathen!” she cried out.
