Chapter 188
Leila is about to reply when she gets a mindlink from Tatum and she looks away from Antoto the cars driving
past the window outside as she hears Tatum's voice. For sreason, she doesn't want Tatum to see her
mysterious second chance mate.
'l was told you cby the office, I'm there now."
'I'll be on my way," Leila replies and drops the mindlink, turning back to face Antobut he's gone and in place
of him is a note on the table.
[I'll see you soon, kitten. Antonio.]
Leila picks up the note and gazes around but there is absolutely no sign of him and she smiles.
There is something about Antothat scares and excites her at the stime. She puts his note in her purse
and heads to Tatum's office.
The moment Tatum hears Leila coming, he pulls open the drawer on his table, frantically putting away the drugs
he just took and tosses the syringes into the trash can, simultaneously increasing the blow rate on his air
freshener to hide any smell of medicine that may linger in the air.
He winces in pain as he sits upright, just as Leila steps into his office and he stares at her, in awe of her beauty
as always, keeping a calm face on the outside but in truth, every breath he takes feels like a silver dagger being
plunged into his heart.
He is yet to fully recover from the incident at the house the other day. The wolfsbane he drank was a rather
concentrated one and it has not only slowed down his healing, it has mixed with his bloodstream and now the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtwound in his chest is beginning to rot.
He has already been to his herbal doctor Alfred who gave him the drugs to take and inject himself with at
periodic intervals but it will take a while for him to heal fully.
He spent three days down in that bunker before he had enough strength to crawl out and as he laid there on the
floor for those three days, the pain and agony that rocked his body and mind was nothing compared to the pain
in his heart. The fear Leila had in her eyes as she went away hurt more than anything the wolfsbane was doing
to him.
It's the first the is seeing her since the incident and he doesn't know what to say to her. How does he
apologise without her lighting up like a fuse?
The other day when he took Amara to the playground and for shopping, he wasn't even strong enough to get
her, The did most of the work even if he was present and he did not see Leila but getting that mindlink from her
warmed his heart more than any other thing could have.
Allowing him to spend twith her child when he did not ask for it is a sign of progress and he will keep hoping
that maybe, just maybe, he might get a chance at redemption.
They stare at each other for a few seconds, eyes full of conflicted emotions and hearts pounding in sync. So
many words waiting to be said, none uttered.
Tatum clears his throat. "Forgive my manners, tea, coffee or something-" he winces from the sudden pain that
hits him in the chest, shifting uncomfortably in his seat, "something strong?"
Leila squints at him, the curiosity clear in her eyes that are fixed on his chest where he stabbed himself.
"I'm fine," she replies, "Actually | cbecause | need your help, it's an emergency."
Tatum looks away from her, his eyes
