Pregnant I left him To His First Love by Collins Patrick

Chapter 99

"Tatum I-"

Tatum shakes his head.

"I don't care why you do it, I really do not want to know."

He cares, he cares all too much, he cares and it hurts beyonds words to see the only woman he has ever loved, his wife, his Luna, sneak out behind him and remain in touch with the one man he has repeatedly told her he doesn't want her to have anything with. She even forced him to go and save that man's life.

A searing pain burns Tatum's heart and he smiles bitterly at Leila but he doesn't say anything and they both just stare at each other.

Eyes holding mixed and powerful emotions.

Ironically, the other man in his marriage happens to be his wife's fated mate and he is out there, right now, brewing the cure for her, so he can have legal grounds to take Leila away from him and there is nothing that he can do but fold his hand and watch. The pain he feels is nothing an entire library of encyclopaedias can explain, all the words in all the languages of the world can barely scratch the scratch of the surface, if his pain is to be transcribed into words but this is his cross to bear.

He decided a long time ago when he first set out to get the cure for Leila that he will put her happiness and wholeness above his own selfish interests.
