Chapter 215: Confessionals...
Xavier POV
Kurtis gave me a hard stare as I paced his office for maybe the 100th time since I arrived. I knew he hated it but I just couldn’t stop myself from doing it. I feel like my brain would explode if I didn’t do anything about it.
"My grandfather said he has some sort of illness and his chances of surviving are slim not to mention Selene is pregnant with his baby. Can you imagine that? Like how could she do that to me,".
"How could she do what to you?" Kurtis scoffed shaking his head. He was bent over some contraption giving it his attention occasionally or when he wasn’t he would look over to where I was and glare. Like how he was doing right now. "They’re married, Xavier and married people can have babies – as much as they want. Surprised that this happened now,".
"But that shouldn’t be so. You told me specifically that for me to be able to reverse our fates, I need to get Selene back. But why isn’t she coming back to me? With Noah’s illness now, it’ll be difficult to separate her from him. I know how seriously she takes these things. Is there something I can do? Maybe something like a backtrack or ...".
"Nothing!" he interrupted me, crossing over to the other side of the room. "When I asked you to win back Selene, I didn’t ask you to be an asshole about it but then, why did I ever believe you? that’s the kind of person you are. You never give anything that doesn’t concern you 100% of your best. There’s always this reservation as if the person is unworthy of it and that’s fucked up. Real bad!"
"That’s not true!" I shook my head vehemently "Selene seems to think so of me too but that’s a fucking lie. I am not like that. I give my best at whatever I do and I would have wooed Selene but for Noah. He kept getting in the way, making me do things that I would normally not do and not the worst of it. He’s obsessed with her and he doesn’t know this,".
"Or maybe he’s someone who is just mad crazy about her. Don’t you think so? That’s a man who truly loves a woman. The only thing I hear from you at all times is complain. You’re always giving excuses for things that anyone can do and with ease. Do you think you’re better than Noah... just because Selene is your fated mate? Well, that’s why the moon goddess gives second chances every freaking time. It’s because of people like you,".
"Easy for you to judge," I fired back already getting riled by his word. "You’ve never been in a relationship, you don’t know what it means... You’re used to getting things done your way, you’re used to having everyone below you. You’ve never had to work or toll for anything that’s why you take the girls for granted,".
