Pregnant I left him To His First Love novel Chapter 52

Chapter 52

[Blackwater Restaurant, 7pm. Let’s talk about it.]

Tatum frowns, hitting the send button and sending the text to Leila.

He drops his phone and sighs. The pressure from the council of elders is getting worse since everyone now knows Leila no longer lives with him and she has completely neglected her duties as Luna.

He seems to be the only one holding back, he should go ahead and marry Carmela, it’s the right thing to do, the pack approves of her, she has the phoenix mark, but his wolf does not sense her.

Everyone else may not see that as an issue because she bears the mark but the prophecy did not just say she was going to bear the mark, it also said she was going to be his fated mate, which she currently isn’t..

[8pm.]

Leila replies to his text and Tatum thinks even her reply is cold.

The beautiful afternoon sun finally sets at dusk and Tatum makes his way to Black water restaurant.

He’s almost at the entrance when Carmela’s orange and mint smell wafts into his nose and he frowns.

She shouldn’t be here.

“Don’t tell me you were coming to dine without me?” Her airy voice reaches his ear before she steps up beside him.

“I’m here for a meeting,” Tatum replies coldly.

“Ohh, can I join you? Please…”

“Carmela 1-” Tatum pauses, feeling a set of eyes burn into his back.

He turns sharply and sees Lella standing behind them, holding a cold look of annoyance in her eyes.

“I thought it was just going to be the two of us,” Leila says before he can open his mouth, an unfamiliar look in her eyes as she glances at Carmela.

“I didn’t invite her, let’s go inside and hash this out,” Tatum replies monotonously and Carmela curls her hand around his elbow before he can move close to Leila.

Leila scoffs at Carmela’s pathetic act shaking her head and walking

behind them.

She just wants everything to be over soon.

“I don’t know what I did to Leila, Tatum, look at how she is looking at me with so much hatred. It’s not my fault I have the phoenix mark, I even tried to apologise to her but she just won’t let me,” Carmela whines, the moment they step into the private room Tatum had booked.

“Tatum, is this what you texted me for?” Leila keeps her voice straight, her cold eyes fixed on Tatum, not sparing Carmela as much as a glance.

“I don’t want us to fight Leila, I really want us to keep being friends, why can’t you just believe me? You’re making me feel like I’m the villain. here,” Carmela heaves.
