Chapter 0128
She was quiet for a moment as she took a sip of lier own coffee.
“There’s nothing wrong with being friends. I mean, lie has to understand that your fated mate left you for another woman only recently. You are still heartbroken, and your wolf is healing,” she told me. “You can’t be too hard on yourself, and he can’t be too hard on you.”
I bit my lip and stared down at the brown liquid, my cheeks flushing at the memory.
“Why do I feel like there’s more to the story?” She suddenly asked, taking in my sour expression.
“Because there is,” I murmured, pecking up at her through my lashes. “He was so angry, Nan. I was so scared, and I tried to get away. Things were sald… and lines were crossed.”
“Lines were crossed?” She asked and I could feel her rising irritation. “Did he hurt you??”
I chewed the inside of my cheek, not able to say the words.
“OH, my Goddess!” She nearly screamed. “He did, didn’t he?!”
“Not so loud, Nan!” I pleaded, grabbing her arm to settle her down. “I don’t want this to get out.”
“I’m going to fucking kill that asshole!” She hissed and was seconds away from standing up, but I pulled her back down, not wanting her to make any stupid decisions.
“Gavin is already dealing with it…”
She froze and stared at me with wide eyes.
“Gavin? Gavin Landry?” She asked.
I nodded.
“He saw me walking last night and he pulled over to give me a ride…” I told her. It was half the truth b I wasn’t going to tell her the entire story. “He figured out what happened, and he promised me that Walter won’t hurt me again.”
She raised her brows and then a smile tipped the corner of her lips.
“Alpha Gavin Landry is protecting you?” She asked.
My cheeks blushed and I stared down at my hands.
“Yes,” I answered, not able to look her in the eyes.
“Why do I feel like there’s more to it-”
“I have to get to my next class,” I said quickly, jumping to my feet. “Thanks for the coffee.”
I grabbed my bag and my coffee and hurried towards the doorway.
