Whispers of betrayal (Selena and Ryan) novel Chapter 88

Chapter 88

“Back off Don’t touch me!” Anastasia freaked out and struggled like crazy, trying to shove Alastor away.

She was seriously grossed out.

Anastasia turned on the shower to freezing cold temperature, desperately trying to wash off the feeling of his hands on her. He used the hands that had touched Felicia to touch her.

It was so disgusting…

“Anastasia!” Alastor was beyond irritated now.

Was she seriously resisting him touching her?

“So Jason can touch you, but I can’t?” Alastor cornered Anastasia against the wall. “Just so you remember, we’re not divorced

yet.

“Don’t freaking touch me!” Anastasia yelled, desperately telling Alastor to keep his hands off her. Her emotions were all over the place.

“Anastasia, you’ve let a bunch of people touch you. Did you really think I wanted to touch you?” Alastor’s irritation was getting the best of him.

Alastor was saying stuff he shouldn’t have, and he knew it. Words, once spoken, couldn’t be taken back.

Some words were like knives: they could stab right into someone’s heart.

Even though Alastor knew these words were harsh, he still let them slip out.

Anastasia suddenly went quiet, and the bathroom was just filled with the sound of water and Alastor breathing.

He started to panic, regretting what he had just said.

Once those words were out, they couldn’t be undone.

Anastasia stood there, numb.

She thought, “Yeah, why was I on my high horse?”

“Hurry up and get it over with… Anastasia stopped fighting, stripped off her soaked clothes herself, and stood under the freezing water.

The icy feeling momentarily distracted Anastasia from the pain in her body and heart.

Alastor turned off the shower and pulled Anastasia into a hug. “You left me with no choice…”

Anastasia didn’t say anything. She was like a lifeless shell.

Alastor wanted to say something, but the words just weren’t coming out.

Alastor was revolting to her, and Anastasia knew it.

But even so, he used sex to get back at her for that comment about not being satisfied by him after four years of marriage…

“Alastor… My stomach hurts.”

Her sex life with Alastor had been fine before. He might not have been very into her, but he’d been gentle.

But this time, even though he knew she was carrying a child, it felt like he was just taking it out on her.

Anastasia cried out, saying her stomach hurt.

But it was actually the pain in her chest that was unbearable.

She knew deep down, Alastor had never really believed this child was his.

He felt the child wasn’t his, which is why he was acting so recklessly.
