King Alejandro The Return Of Her Cold Hearted Alpha Chapter 66 Mother To Daughter

MARIA

Four days had passed since the meeting and we were getting ever closer to the blood count, which meant the time to leave would be soon…

It had been four days since Kiara had lost control and was now being kept unconscious. Seeing her lying there on a bed of silver with chains holding her down was painful.

I had wanted to talk to her before I left, one final time… to ask her to take care of my grandchildren… to take the place of that grandmother figure for them that I no longer would be able to fulfil… but I didn’t have the luxury to bid her goodbye. I now stood outside Raihana’s bedroom, hesitating. I had told her I had wanted a word, so she was expecting me, but I was feeling a little uncertain. Scared even. I swallowed hard trying to be strong. How do I tell my daughter that I wasn’t coming back? “Aunty Maria, come in.” Chris said opening the door and flashing me a smirk 2 I smiled, and entered their bedroom, my heart pounding, which made Chris look at me suspiciously.

“You alright?” He asked. “Of course I am.” I replied smoothly, walking over to the travel cot where Tatum was fast asleep My little prince… “Mom.” Raihana said coming out of the adjoining bathroom in a silk nightgown. “Could you close the door please, Chris?” I asked, as he was still standing there. He closed it slowly, exchanging looks with Raihana who came over to me and felt my forehead. “Your heart’s racing, Mom.” She murmured concerned. I sat on the edge of the bed, pulling her down beside me. “I wanted to talk to you both about something.” I started, taking her hands. “Promise me you both will hear me out before saying anything and what I speak of stays in this room.” “I promise.” Raihana said, brushing it off. “No Raihana, take an oath on Tatum.”

“Mom… You’re asking for an oath, what is going on?” “You won’t know until you take the oath.” I said pointedly. She rolled her eyes as Chris smirked. “I take an oath on RÍ. You have my word, I won’t repeat anything to anyone.” He said, placing a hand on his heart.

“I swear on Tatum’s life.” Raihana said, shaking her head. “Happy?” “Yes.” I said quietly, looking at my son-in-law. ‘I will need him to be here for Raihana…

“Mom? Hello? You can tell us; you are acting really weird.” She felt my forehead again, looking confused. Here it goes. Taking a deep breath, I closed my eyes for a moment, giving Raihana’s hand a gentle squeeze. “It’s about the upcoming battle.” I said softly.

“Oh mom, I wish you didn’t have to go. Don’t worry, you will be ok, Uncle Al won’t let anything happen to you.” Raihana said, smiling at me.

I nodded.

“I know he won’t, but… there is a price to pay for taking a demon’s life.” I began, my heart thundering as Raihana’s smile vanished, replaced with a frown. “A life. The one who stabs him with the dagger will die.” “Shit! Is Uncle planning.” “I said, hear me out, ya habibti!” I scolded as Chris stood there, watching me sharply with his piercing eyes. “Ok but uncle can’t-” “He was planning to, but the kids are still so young, Kiara is so young, they have their entire life ahead.” I explained, and Raihana nodded. “And well… I want to return to him.” I finished softly, and for the first time, I looked into her eyes.

Her eyes began filling with tears and I knew I needed to say what I had to before I couldn’t hold myself together any longer.

I will have them.” I replied, going over to the bed where Sienna was already asleep next to her mother. “Ok ma’am, if you need anything, don’t hesitate to call.” She whispered before leaving the room.
