Chapter 69 

Im sorry, son,Kalen choked out and groaned. Turning my head, I looked at him. Kalens face was so swollen he was barely recognizable. He coughed before placing his fingers in his mouth and removing a tooth. Valens answer was a growl when I helped Kalen to stand. The sound of cracking bones reached my ears as I heard Valen shift back behind me. Keeping a grip on Kalen, who was unsteady on his feet, we moved toward his car, and I fished his keys out of his pocket and unlocked his car for him

Im alright, dear. Go, check on my son,he hissed, falling heavily in his seat. With a nod, I turned to find Valen had walked back to his car

Valen?” I called, and he turned to look at me as I walked overt o him. The look he gave me made me stop

You knew, you knew and said nothing,he said and bit the inside of my lip and nodded. Hurt shone in his eyes as Valen looked at the Hotel

She gave you this place, didnt she?” he asked

My lips quivered as he turned his gaze back to me. She recognized your son,I told him, and he sucked in a deep breath

You should have told me,he said, and I could feel his heartbreaking, the sadness for a loss he didnt actually lose all 

those years, the sinking feeling that I betrayed him.

Valen, wait. Just let me.He got in his car and slammed the car in reverse, smacking into the brick garden out front of the main office before tearing out of the driveway. The engine of his car roared as he floored it down the street.

I take it that is what you meant when you said it would get a lot worse?Marcus said as I rubbed my arms against the cool breeze. He stopped beside me with a groan while rubbing his lower back, and Kalen pulled out of the parking space before winding down his window

He will forgive you. Its me he is truly angry at,Kalen said with a sigh. I nodded and watched him leave

Three days later. The only time I had heard from Valen was via text message. Three days had passed, and he was still angry at me. I knew he spent most of those days drunk. Could feel the unease sitting i n my stomach through the bond. Standing out front of the school, Valarian and I waited for him to come to get him, yet the feeling through the bond was like he was passed out and asleep. In no way was I letting my son go with him if he was drunk. Therefore, I hoped it was just my guilt for not telling him sooner

What time is it?” Valarian asked me, looking both ways down the street for his fathers car. Retrieving my phone from my pocket, I glanced at the time and sighed. He was almost an hour late

Sweeping up the glass and mopping the floor, I then walked back into the bathroom. Now that the hall was clear of glass, I dragged him to his room. It took me 20 minutes to lift him onto the bed.
