Shackled (The Lord Series)

92. Angel

I have been tossing in bed for more than ten hours, trying to convince myself to get out of bed and face Stefan, but the idea of having to learn how happy he is with Emily causes me so much pain. So I have been hiding in my room since last night.

Since when are you such a coward Angel?

Pretending Alekos and Reyes were a man 1 randomly

1.

ly met in La Palma, no problem, but having to talk to Stefan has my anxiety levels skyrocketing

I should not have let Alekos and Reyes fack me before we talked about everything, but Alekos telling me he was single gave me hope that maybe he refused to be with Emily because he truly cares for me. Of course, it can all be in my head, but is it wrong to want to be happy with my mate? All of them? Not that it will be possible, but dreaming costs nothing

And Reyes…when I saw him in the doorframe, his eyes red and full of pure madness, I knew I was the only one to ground him, so I let him back into my life.

St upid. Angri, xa st upid, Just because they know how to f uck and treated me nicely for seven days doesn’t mean s hit,

But I was so lonely, and the idea of having to raise my baby alone made me so sad… and their touch makes t

the pain in my c

chest bearable

I should have listened to Wasp and remained in the Sanctuary. Her and the others were more than happy to help me with the baby. While the idea was tempting, I wanted to replace someone to accept the baby and me onto his life. I did not plan for that someone to be Alekos and Beyes, but when one of them is the father, and with both of them wanting me, I couldn’t say no because my heart still wants them. So many nights I laid awake in bed wondering why I wasn’t mough for them and why they left me in the facility. Maybe Stefan didn’t tell Alos about the email? Then why did they come after me? At least Stefan did.

And what about Emily?

Never should I have let my role-f ucking-play fantasy take over my life. Instead, I should have asked why they kicked me out of their apartment and abandoned me to my fate and why they suddenly want me back. If they want me back. What if Stefan showed Alekos may email?

Everything is so confusing

What if they only want my baby because Emily can’t give them one? G od knows what was done to her in that horrible place. My hands wrap around my belly. The f uck I will let them have my baby.

i makes my head

Should I call Beetle and tell her I am in trouble? Maybe I should return to the Sanctuary. I bury my face in the pillow and groan. The entire situation a spin.

Carlos is looking for me. Of course, he is. At least Reyes is after him.

Reyes is the Bu tcher.

One of my mutes is a serial killer.

He killed for me.

I don’t know if I should ask him to murry me or f uck him so good he will be the one proposing.

Something must be wrong with me if I am not disgusted that Reyes killed so many men. But they but me so badly that I still have nightmares about them torturing mr. Who knows how many women went through the same at their hands? Reps getting rid of them was not a bad idea.

But what will happen when the police discover the Dutcher’s real identity? What if they alr And now Reyes will kill some more and be caught and sent to prison.

if they already did, and that’s why Alekos had to leave so suddenly to the States?

D amn!

Someone has to stop Reyes and make him see reason. He might not listen to Stefanor Alekos, but he will listen to me.

I grab my phone and dial his number, but he is out of reach. I start to feel sick. Maybe Stefan spoke to Reyes, and he knows where he is?

92. Angel

I get out of bed and unlock and open the door, Stefan is standing in front of my bedroom, his hands in his pockets. His hair is ruffled, and the last three buttons of his shirt are undone, revealing his chest.. A few red and ugly scars peek from beneath the shirt.

Without thinking, I reach out my hand. “What happened

He moves before my fingers e

can touch him,

“Nothing.” His tone is cold as always,

Stup id, Angel, stupi d. I know how Stefan is, why bother?

We stare at each other, an awkward silence falls around us.

With

Reyes on my mind, I say, “Have you just

at the same time as Stefan speaks, “Do you-

His gaze goes to my stomach. Does he still want to touch it? I can’t bring myself to let him feel the baby. Not when I know how much he dislikes me. If he wants a baby, he can go make one with Emily. My baby already has a father, only that I don’t know if it in Reyes or Alekos.

“Can I?” he asks, his hand going

ng for my stomach.

My palms cover it. I don’t know why the ides of Stein touching me doesn’t sit well with me. His shoulders drop. I have no problems when Reyes or Alekos do it

Taking a deep breath. Fask, “Did Reyes contact you? I tried calling him, but my call won’t go through.”

“I haven’t spoken to him since last night. Do you need anything? I would be more than happy to
