Chapter 194

194 Baby mama … Im sure if Nathan had told me he was an alien , a vampire , or even some wizard and had magically produced a wand and was waving it at me , it wouldnt have been as shocking as what he was asking me to do ..

I stared at him , with my mouth hanging open in disbelief .

The words hed just spoken suspended between us like bad breath .

Youre asking me to do WHAT ? I demanded , my voice rising with the sheer ridiculousness .

He sighed heavily , running a hand through his hair .

We would do anything to be with each other right ? Isnt that what this is all about ? I want to be with you and Im trying to suggest ….

To suggest ? I repeated staring at him .

What exactly do you take me for , Nathan ? Some kind of baby making machine ? Is that all I am you ? Do you think the solution to all our problems is for me to get pregnant ? I dont even know who I am anymore , Nathan .

My identity is in a mess , its jumbled … Lyla , just listen … NO ! I thundered po my index finger at him .

You listen ! One minute , my mother the woman whom Ive called mother all my life was rejecting me telling me that I destroyed her family and her home and I was a child born out of wedlock .

The next , another group of deranged men or Alphas or whatever it is telling me that I am a murderer and youre here asking me to get pregnant ? Are you okay ? Stop being sentimental for once in your life , Lyla .

Youre an adult … And so , I get an automatic pass into swallowing down surprises like this ? Realizing that everybody around me has lied and has been lying to me all my life .

Do you think this is the way Ive envisioned my future ? To be stopped from getting married on my supposed wedding day ? Lyla , YOURE NOT LISTENING … Nathan growled .

His eyes were flashing with irritation and anger .

Oh , Im listening , perfectly well ! I cut him off , I was shouting now .

What I cant understand you is why youre dragging an innocent child into this mess .

Have you completely lost it ? He took in a deep breath , waving his hand placatingly at me .

If youd just let me explain , he sighed .

There was desperation and exhaustion on his face .

If theres a baby- our baby before the coronation , I can reject Clarissa .
