Pregnant and Rejected by My Alpha Mate

#Chapter 94 Elysium

Bastien

By the time I’m clean and dressed in fresh clothes, Lila’s tantrum has subsided. I find her and Selene by the campfire, the pup sniffling softly against her mother’s neck. Selene trails a gentle hand up and down Lila’s back, somehow soothing her and scolding her all at once.

“I know it’s a lot of big changes and it’s all happening very fast,” She murmurs, kissing Lila’s hair. “it probably seems like all of these things are happening around you and you don’t know what’s going on, just that all the grown ups are telling you that everything’s going to be different and you don’t have a say in any of it.”

Lila nods, rubbing her wet, salty skin over Selene’s collar. A wave of guilt washes over me. Here I thought her tantrum was just regular toddler mood swings – I took it at face value, but Selene knew instantly. I wonder if it’s maternal intuition, or simply experience and knowing the pup so much better than I do.

A few weeks ago I would have felt bitter about her advantage with Lila, but now I simply feel wretched for causing my daughter distress. Maybe Lila was right to say she doesn’t like me anymore, it sounds like I deserved it.

“It’s alright to feel upset or scared or angry.” My mate continues, “I feel the same way sometimes, but you know better than to say mean things simply because you’re feeling out of sorts. You hurt your Daddy’s feelings.”

“I didn mean it.” Lila moans piteously.

“I know angel, but words are very powerful.” Selene explains, rocking her gently. “You can’t take them back, saying sorry doesn’t make someone forget that you thought those things in the first place. And that hurts.”

“Is h-he m-mad at m-me?” the pup hiccups weakly.

My wife meets my gaze over our daughter’s head, “Why don’t you ask him?” She suggests. Moving to sit next to Selene, I rest my hand on Lila’s small head, prompting her to look up at me tearfully. “Poor pup, you’ve had too much excitement haven’t you?”

Lila looks positively miserable, like she wants to reach for me but isn’t sure if I’ll take her. The thought nearly breaks my heart.”)” m sorry, Daddy.” She sobs.

Pulling her out of Selene’s lap and wrapping her up tight in my arms, I answer,”I’m sorry too, little one.” She’s so tiny, so fragile ! have to remind myself not to squeeze her too tightly.
