Chapter 125 KAIDEN STIRLING She was a mess, just like me. I did not know if I liked or hated that. I hated it. It was painful for me to watch my mate fall apart like this, but there was a sort of twisted comfort I got in the fact that we were both going through this. I pulled up in the driveway of the small house and stared out the windshield for a solid five minutes. What was I doing? Why hadn’t I taken her back home to Lyra? Why was I here? At the house, I had built in a spot I knew used to be her favorite. It gave a lovely view of the sunset. But I was sure she would not wait to see that by the time she woke up sober tomorrow. I knew I was going too far by bringing her here without her knowing, but it was not my fault; I needed some alone time with her. I looked over at her. She was snoring softly in her seat. I had tried to apologize to her once again. I had tried to tell her how sorry I was, I had tried to tell her I was miserable without her. I had tried to tell her that I was in love with her. She didn’t want to hear it. I didn’t blame her. I had lied to her way too much and if I told another lie, she was scared that she would believe it. I took a deep breath and climbed out of the car. The cold night air hit me hard in the face and I realized just how chilly it was. Shit, I needed to prepare the house because I did not take her into the house while it was freezing. 0.00% [11 O 12:52) Chapter 125 286 Vouchers I headed towards the door and unlocked it with my fingerprint. It was a little cheesy or over the top, but she had once told me years ago when she was lying in my arms, that she would like a house with artificial intelligence. So I added that to the house.

The door unlocked and I pushed it open. Once I walked in, I inhaled the crisp scent of the air. “Carina, activate,” I said out loud and a low beeping sound came from around the house. “Hello Kaiden,” the built-in Al assistant responded. It recognized my voice. “Turn on the bedroom lights and warm up the house,” I said. “Of course, Kaiden,” she responded and I walked back out to the car. The pale moonlight shone on her face and I could not help but admire how beautiful she was despite the despair on her face. She was gorgeous. My gorgeous mate. All mine. I walked to the car and pulled open the door to her seat. She groaned as I unbuckled the seatbelt and lifted her out of the seat. She was small. It had been so long since I touched her this way, so long since I had held her this close, that I forgot how small she was. She wrapped her hands around my neck, surprising me. I shut the door with one hand and locked it with the remote. She wrapped her legs around my waist next and I held back the primal urge and need to kiss her and claim her once again so I could cancel the rejection from six years ago. I supported her weight by holding the underside of her thighs. She was unconscious but I was not going to disrespect her. I walked into the house and kicked the door shut behind me. A beep informed me that it had been locked, and I was thankful for the fact that the house was now at a good temperature. A comfortable one. 33.02% ||| r 12:52 390 Super I headed straight for the room I had said would be for the two of us. When the house was still in construction, I had been convinced that she would come back and she would forgive me, she would give me a second chance. After the house was done, I lost hope. It was a great thing I hadn’t lost hope while it was still in construction because there would have been no place for me to take her. I laid her down on the sheets. They were not dusty like I would
have expected. Everything was clean. The agent I had appointed to keep this place clean had probably kept on working despite me giving up. She groaned and rolled over. I smiled, staring at her. She was. gorgeous in this dress. Her hair was spilled over the white pillow and it was like a halo, a golden halo. Goddess, I was in love with her. I was madly in love with her and it was driving me nuts. I attempted to back away from the bed before I did something I would regret and Freda would hate me for. As I turned around, a hand grabbed mine and my heart stopped. I turned to look at Freda. She was looking at me with an expression I could not read. “Stay with me,” she whispered. 73.10%
