Chapter 198: Harboring A Monster
Kylo threw his arms listlessly into the air. "Come on, Isleen. Cullen is your closest friend. Don’t make it seem like I sent some high-class spy after you. Besides, I only did all that because I was worried about you. I wanted to see how you were faring after I... after we broke up."
I arched a brow, eyeing Kylo like he was a different person. But at the end of the day, I couldn’t stay mad at him. He’d only been looking out for me, in his own creepy twisted way.
I once again felt touched by the amount of care he showed towards me. By the moon goddess, I couldn’t help admitting it... He would’ve been a perfect option if he were my mate.
Sighing silently with relief, I folded my arms in front of my chest. I looked away awkwardly before muttering. "You didn’t have to do all that. But... Thank you. I appreciate the effort."
Kylo smiled wryly, before dropping another bombshell. "Cullen said he suspects you’ve found someone new before you two moved in here." I couldn’t help shivering when I heard those words. But then he added. "I mean, don’t get me wrong, I’m happy for you. It’s just, so sudden. It seems so odd that you’d find a new boyfriend so fast unless he’s your mate. Is that it? Have you found your mate, Isleen?"
Oh, shit. Oh, freaking shit!
Cullen, that stupid blabber mouth! So he’d been sharing things about my life with Kylo? Behind my back?
I couldn’t help regretting telling him about Gamma Rhett. What if he goes on to reveal everything to Kylo? It would ruin me! It would ruin my friendship with Kylo, or worse...
No. I couldn’t allow it. I’d have to have a serious talk with Cullen later. If he was going to keep on gossiping about me behind my back, then I’d have Rhett kick him out of the house.
