Denied by Destiny: Trapped in the Shadows of the Mate Bond

Chapter 0289

Entering the house, Hector is waiting for us in the hallway, I move to go upstairs when he requests that I also enter the office.

Both alpha's sit behind their desks, giving off that thick sense of power. Alpha Kaia's eyes land on her son, before looking at me. Her eyes widening as she sees the mess he has made of my ribbed area. "You need to go to the hospital." Kaia insists.

"It's nothing that I can't heal myself Alpha." This isn't the first time this has happened, unbeknown to them.
