Pregnant I left him To His First Love novel Chapter 67

Chapter 67

“No!….”

Horror fills Tatum’s voice as he rushes to the broken vial on the floor, his eyes wide in utter disbelief as he kneels above it.

A sharp pain squeezes his heart as he watches the liquid spill out onto the floor, the shards of broken glass look whole compared to his broken heart.

Tears tug his eyes and he blinks for the single tear drop to run down, feeling completely helpless and devastated.

Why…..

What does he do now?

Does he start all over again?

He scampers on his knees to the mattress and slashes the foam with his claws, cutting out a piece with trembling hands, trying to mop up the liquid but it’s useless, it’s just dirt now, too small to recover anything.

Wasted.

His shoulder sags and his head drops, a jarring pain hammering against

his shattered heart.

Two years….. Two years of constant effort, late nights, early mornings, time away from home, risking his life, putting the pack’s finances at risk, all for her to get her wolf back and now it’s all gone to waste in the blink of an eye.

“What have you done Leila?” He almost growls at her with all of his pain in his gaze.

A furious anger boils in his gut and he wants to lash out but how can he be mad at her? She wouldn’t do this if she knew better.

It’s not just his sacrifice being wanted that hurts him.

It’s his chance to be with her that is done, because even if she is not hi mate, he could keep her as Luna as long as she gets her woll

Leila’s mouth stays wide open when she sees Tatum rush after the vial, the way he slashes the foam, the desperation in his movements, the pain in his eyes.

What was in there?

It’s just best for everyone If she leaves and her life and that of her baby. is already at risk.

Who knows what Carmela is going to attempt next?

Tatum remains silent, not a word, a grunt, a scoff, not a single sound from him in response, he doesn’t even raise h. head to look at her.

“Tatum, I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to destroy your gift, I’m just so I’m not needed here, nobody needs a wolfless Luna when they already have the phoenix Luna. Why can’t you just see that?”

Leila’s mention of ‘wolfless Luna’ only compounds Tatum’s grief, hitting. his heart with pain at how the chance to fix that was just wasted and he raises his head to look at her with an unreadable expression in his eyes.

“If you had your wolf, would it have made a difference, would you have stayed?”

He can’t tell her everything that he has been up to, how he has spent all the years of their marriage trying to find a cure for her, how it hasn’t been easy fighting back the pressure from the council of elders to make Carmela Luna.

But he wants to know her heart, will she stay with him if she has her wolf? Because he’ll do it all over again, no matter what it will cost him, no matter how much he will pay, he will not stop until he gets the cure for her.

“No Tatum. I won’t,” Leila’s curt reply hits his heart with a pang. “If I had my wolf, I would be out there searching for my own mate, so I don’t have to suffer over another woman’s
