Semua Bab Let Me Go, Alpha Calhoun : Bab 101 - Bab 110

Kristen's POVFive months later.It sucks that I should've been part of the graduates today if I hadn't been kidnapped by Jack and bedridden for eleven days. Now I have to sit back for the exams by next year to officially pass out as a graduate.Anyone in my shoes would feel bad or twice as bad as I do. The pain of seeing your peers climbing up on stage to give their commencement speeches while you're in the audience at the pavilion.I am jealous of my friends, we began everything together. Yet I am here and they're there. Mostly Maddy who's beaming that I'm starting to wonder if her cheeks don't hurt.Still, they deserve to be euphoric.Meanwhile, I'm six months pregnant already, so by this time next year, I'll be a mother. The whole campus is full with people from different packs for today's graduation ceremony. "Cheer up, Kristen. It's not the end of the world," Maddy gives me a side hug when we meet outside."You're marrying Calhoun after the baby's delivery and you'll be Luna o

Kristen's POVWho would have thought that a strange man would show up one day and claim to be my father when I least expected it?Mom said she had one drunken night with a stranger and she never saw him again, even when she figured she was carrying me. And now, twenty-one years later, he's here. Right at the time his daughter was heavily pregnant."Please give us privacy," I tell Calhoun because he's just standing at my back like a bodyguard. "Are you sure about that?" Calhoun grabs my wrist and turns me to face him."Yes," I nod."I need to stay here as your man, to protect you in case he tries to hurt you." Calhoun casts a suspicious glance at the man, clearly showing that he doesn't trust him."He won't hurt me," I assure Calhoun, after observing the man at my side. "Kristen…""Just go, Calhoun...please," I implore because I really need some time alone to get answers from this man."Fine, but I'll leave the door open," Calhoun thins his lips.I give him a firm nod and he relucta

Kristen's POV"You shouldn't do this," he looks unsure of himself."I insist," I give him a little smile."You don't need to do anything for me when I haven't given you a single dime in life," he tells me after sighing heavily. And it just breaks my heart that he's living in regret."It doesn't work that way."Hopping out of the car, I slide my shades down from my forehead to my eyes, before handing Janette my handbag. And then I meet Father. I brought him here so he could have new clothes. He's been wearing his worn-out clothing since his arrival and it doesn't even settle well with me.The urge to get closer to him is great, since Mom and I's relationship is strained. It didn't work out between us, so maybe, just maybe things we'll bond as father and daughter.Calhoun let Janette come with me because she's the bodyguard he hired to watch over me and protect me if need be. The six-foot-tall masculine woman has been by my side since I was rescued from Jack the Rogue Psycho.Inside th

Kristen’s POV“You were such a chubby baby,” Dad laughs as he points at my three-year-old picture.“True. When Mom and I walked on the road and maybe there was a small pothole that had its own tiny pool of rain, Mom would ask me to sidestep it. And I remember walking through it instead. Getting soaked in the muddy water.” I chuckle amid my explanation, while Dad is still laughing with his hand fisted against his chest.We’re at my apartment near school. It’s been three months since I came here because I don’t live in it anymore, since the incident with Jack Sawyer. And now, Dad said he wanted to see my photos so I had to bring him here.Janette is here too, with her jaw clenched. She doesn’t speak unless she’s being asked a question, nor does she hesitate to stand as my guard when she senses something wrong.She’s all stiff since I began showing Dad my photos, but there was a time I caught her stifling laughter. It was caused by my nine-month-old picture, when I had this sickness and

Kristen’s POVThe tears that I was expecting didn’t rain down my cheeks. Not even a single drop. Even as I have tried to force them out.It’s surprising how my eyes are still dry, yet my heart is bleeding. Why wouldn’t it?There’s this gaping hole violently boring through my chest and paving through my heart.After everything I went through with Calhoun, he still chose to cheat on me. It’s amusing, isn’t it? That men aren’t to be trusted, they tell you one thing and they go behind your back to do the opposite. In fact, they sweet-talk all the women they’re having affairs with, to make them believe they’re being truthful.The promises, everything else he’s ever told me, he meant none of them. This tall brunette has always been there.She’s everything I am not. And how she confidently sent me the video of a sleeping naked Calhoun, shows that she’s always wanted to do this for some time now.The way she said, ‘Our man.’And then she was naked. Before showing me a naked Calhoun on the b
