Chapter: Chapter 69SkylarA small frown plastered on my face upon my mate's words. He didn't say anything about his conditions to me. Not even a mention.His gentle hands left my shoulders, only to rest one on top of my head, the other in the pocket of his black jeans.Have I mentioned that I adore when he's touchy with me?Dominic raised his tattooed brow and leaned back in his seat. I wonder how his pants haven't ripped yet with how tight they were."If you were to ever be in a state where you have to choose between me or Skylar, you choose her. Always. No hesitation."My heart skipped a beat. Or two."What? No!" I whipped my head to face Xander, but his ultimate attention was placed on Dominic, whose face remained yet again neutral."No! Why would he do that-""This isn't up for an argument, Sky." He barely even looked my way. His tone was absolutely stern as if e

Chapter: Chapter 68Skylar"Do we have to tell them today?"Alexander kept circling his thumps on my upper thigh as I sat in front of him on his office table with him in his extensive leather seat.He leaned slightly forward, putting his hand on my hips, making us much closer, and despite him sitting down, his eyes level was finally on mine."We can tell them whenever you're ready, baby. It's your choice."I nodded when he pecked my lips sweetly and even slightly giggled as he pulled me more down, my legs colliding with his chest. He grinned boyishly, like an idiot at me, and I found myself grinning foolishly back for literally no reason."Ayo! I hope no one's naked!" Dominic's voice shouted from behind the closed door and stormed in, "not like I would complain if you are though." he finger-gunned Xander with a terrible wink attempt and biting his lips while squinting his eyes.I couldn't stop my

Chapter: Chapter 67Skylar"I presume this means I should be worried sick." I absentmindedly picked on the flower in my hand, the yellow petals slowly falling down on my balcony's floor.Yes. Dominic bought me flowers on our way back.The faint breeze calmly pushing them away. I tucked my hands under my thighs, letting the bouquet of roses on my legs.I nodded."What are you planning to do now, Stellina?" (little star in Italian)A sigh left my left as I blinked my very puffy eyes."I have to tell Xander first."We stayed quiet for a few moments; him enjoying his cigarette as he leaned against the railing, while I rocked myself on the love seat. Alexander was still at an important meeting when we came back and Dominic wanted to keep me company in my room, claiming I looked too sick to be left alone until my mate finishes.Charming, I know."I told you not

Chapter: Chapter 66SkylarHolding my stomach down as I walked out of the restaurant seemed such a hard task at the moment. It was until I reached the car on the other side I let it out, though nothing came out, mostly because I have eaten nothing since this early morning. The morning sickness was too rough on me these past days. Yet, I'm glad I haven't. I rather eject nothing but acid and spit than my digested meal.Tears blurred my eyes, and my legs slightly trembled. I didn't realize Dominic was holding my upper arm until I saw his blurry figure near me, a tissue offered in hand.Once I felt myself finish, he quietly led me in my seat and climbed beside me.Silent tears run down my damp cheek, until they fell in small droplets down my jaw, to my neck.As odd as it sounds, it was ticklish, which made me giggle, and more tears fell. My laughers grew and my vision blurred stronger that I barely made out whatever w

Chapter: Chapter 65SkylarWas this a bad idea?Maybe it is, but then again, I'm running out of ideas.Bitting the inside of my cheek, I got out of the car next to Dominic.Maybe I should have given a notice before coming uninvited.Screw it, just go in"Need time before going in?" I heard him speak low beside me, eyeing the quite empty restaurant in front of us.I took a deep breath, trying to ease down my nauseous and shook my head firmly, "no, let's go."I choose a random booth, my eyes noticing the familiar figure I've wanted to see. Dominic kept his black shades on, complimenting the whole bad boy-black outfit he had on. He takes his intimidating job way too seriously. Because even I at this moment was slightly intimidated by him, even though he's just casually sitting in front of me."Do they actually have nugget-""What are you doing here?"&

Chapter: Chapter 64Skylar“Alexander,” I hesitantly stepped forward when I noticed the witch’s hand twitching, most likely to hex us to the afterlife, which he definitely could, ”he’s right, we got our answer so let’s leave.”I do not know where I found the strength and calmness to drag my mate outside and inside the car.But once the car began moving, a buzzing sound echoed inside my ears as I noticed Xander talking beside me.My brain stutters for a moment and my eyes take in more light than I expected. Every part of me goes on pause while my thoughts catch up.It’s confirmed, he or she is a hybrid. The prophecy is coming together. Our doomed f
