Pregnant I left him To His First Love novel Chapter 146

No matter how hard she is trying to stick to Kelvin’s advice of using logic over emotion, Tatum’s hypocrisy is something she cannot stand and the bitter words slip from her tongue in annoyance before she can hold it back.

She suddenly realises he hasn’t asked about Amara’s paternity, does he suspect something? Is that why he is keen on providing safe accommodation for them?

Amara doesn’t look her age, she looks way smaller, no thanks to the circumstances surrounding her pregnancy and all. She is a four year old child who looks like she is going to three, Amanda believes her growth deficiency comes from having to heal Leila a lot while she was in the womb.

The mere thought of it makes Leila sad and bitter, her anger towards Tatum filling her heart to a climax but when she looks back at his eyes, the grey orbs hold the same stoic calmness to them, her words seeming like they had no effect on him.

There is neither pain, nor regret or remorse in his eyes and she hates how unreadable he is, like he is the chess master and they are all pawns playing his games.

“I am a man whose sins are grave,” Tatum replies in the same gentle voice. “See this as a fruitless act towards redemption.”

“Your sins are not mine to redeem, I don’t want your accommodation,” Leila keeps her tone stern.

“It’s an order, Theo will take you,” Tatum’s Alpha aura bears down on her even if his voice is calm and Leila realises the unhidden truth, she can fight him and deny it all she wants, he still is her alpha.

Yet she doesn’t yield to his wishes, she won’t.

“I don’t take orders from you,” She replies in a snarky tone, fighting back the pressure from his aura, using all of her willpower to fight her wolf’s urge to submit as she walks away from him.

Tatum holds her back and the moment he touches her, electrifying sparks course through every inch of her body, a tingling pleasure shooting straight to her core, the effect of the mate bond.

She looks up to his eyes sharply but she can see Tatum doesn’t feel the same way, she tries to pull her hands away from him but Tatum’s hold is firm, his eyes still.

“Don’t make this any harder than it should be, hate me all you want, I deserve it but I am still your Alpha and you will listen to me,” His voice is colder but there is no anger in his eyes.

“Fine,” Leila grits her teeth as his powerful aura bears down on her again. “Alpha,” she bows, eyeing him with contempt. “I’ll live in the house.”

“Good,” Tatum whispers with a serene smile and lets her go.
