Chapter 46: I hate you, Alexandre Nine years ago "Don't hurt him; don't hurt him. Please." Kristen tossed on the bed, her fingers digging into Xander's skin. Everything he did to wake her up failed. She was too deep in the night. "Baby, baby. Wake up." He shook her a little to wake her up. She kept on tossing and throwing her hands in attack. " Baby. Wake up! It's a nightmare."
