Contractually Yours, Alpha by Giftemmy

Chapter One Hundred and Twenty Four

I had been on my way to Axels‘ apartment when walked right into my mother, she must have been waiting for me. I took a turn, trying to avoid her; she was the last person I wanted to see, but I felt her firm grip on my hands.

“Please, Riley, let’s talk,” she says.

Talk? What’s the point? We’ve been talking and it led to more problems, perhaps it was best I avoid chatting with her, this way she could keep her secrets to herself.

“I do not need to talk to you right now; let me go,” I said. My voice sounded so cold, I almost didn’t believe it came from me. She finally let me go.

“You were right, I didn’t want you with him, I was never okay with that and so I knew telling you the truth would end what you both had, if only I knew how bad I was hurting you in the process. I acted selfishly but I think I have a solution.” she says, her eyes sincere.

“No,

you don’t; the only things you can come up with are more problems, and I am fed up. I am sick and tired of you.”

“Hear me out. I read about this thing called a DNA test; the healers could do that; maybe you should check…” she speaks on, but I cut her off.

“So does this mean you are unsure about my relationship with…” I paused, noticing we were out in the open, and I couldn’t say more than that.

“No, I am sure.”

“Then what is the need for that?”

“I thought…”

“Stop alright. When I said I didn’t want to see you for some long, long time, I meant it. I need space, I need time away from you, and that is the least you can do for me right now.”
