MY BESTFRIEND SLIPPED INSIDE ME (AN ALPHA’S SECRET) - Season 2 Episode 28

Xade’s pov

I’m sorry,” I wailed, showing my weakness, my fear, my reality.

I am so sorry for not being able to protect you, for not being strong enough, for failing you.” My voice grows raw with grief swirling through it like a dark cloud.

My tears land on her face, drawing over her feverish skin. Pain clawed at my chest.

And then I don’t know where, or how she managed to garner such strength…but a sharp sting kisses the side of my face, abruptly stopping me from saying anything else as I stare at the culprit in my arms.

Recharge successful!

She huffs, rolling her eyes. “That should do it.”

I blinked, caught off guard by her sudden action and my hand instinctively rose to touch the hot sting on my face. ” What was that for?”

I whispered in surprise, a bit amused that she smacked me across my face.

For crying and yapping about nonsense,” She huffed, her eyes slightly glaring at me. If I promise you something, I keep it don’t I?”

I nod, still a bit gobsmacked by what she had done. She glared harder. ” Then shut it and let me keep that promise.” her tone is a mixture of fondness and exasperation.

I nod, smiling. ” Yes ma’am.”

Good,” she touched where the sting had land on my cheek, rubbing there affectionately. “Sorry for slapping you.” she apologize, pouting slightly.

I cracked a smile. “It’s fine, I clearly needed it.”

She nods, her eyes playful. ” Yes you did,” she agree playfully. I chuckle and cover her hand with mine and turn my head slightly to plant a kiss on her palm.

She grins and then huffs, pushing her head closer to my chest and shifting to get more comfortable on top of me. “Now,” she started, letting out a soft moan and closed her eyes. My heart skipped painfully and I am relieved when she reopens those pretty eyes once more.

What should his name be? I know we have to keep the family tradition in your family,” she continued warmly and despite her frail voice, I can detect a bit of excitement.

” How about Xadel?” She suggested and I smiled down at her fondly.

Xadel,” I repeated the name on my tongue, liking the way it sounded so pure. Pure just like the love I share with Avery.

She nods. ” Or Xadrien?” Her eyes shone. “I think I prefer Xadel? No?”

I grinned down at her. ” You are very sure you’re holding a mini me huh?” I joked and her eyes twinkle, the mist of darkness fighting to cloud her eyes. ” What if you hold a girl?” I continue to tease her.

She looks thoughtful. “Hmm how about Xadeline? Or Xadie?”

I chuckle, nodding. ” Both sound cute.”

Her lips work into a cute pout. ” But which

“But which one do you prefer the most?”

I gently run my fingers over her flush cheeks, swallowing when I felt the heat. It hadn’t subsided and it was growing which gnawed a hole in my already beaten heart. My heart aches.

“I like Xadeline,” I whispered, my voice breaking even more when she tries to hide her whimper. ” Has a nice ring to it and will be as delicate and perfect as her.”

Avery sighed, nestling closer to me. Yes,” she whispered, her eyes

fighting to remain open. I know she was trying her best to fight it, I could feel it. My baby was trying. I place my hand on her stomach, rubbing soothing circles.

Her eyes flutter close and my heart jumps in my throat. ” But I still stand by carrying a mini you. I can feel it in my bones.” she breathed shakily, trying to press her forehead harder on my chest. I know it was because she was in pain.

I make sure to hold her steady enough to not make the water touch her mark. I am to look down at it and see if it had gotten worse or not.

I would have to sooner or later. I swallowed and forced my

But I cared voice to be steady.

She needed me strong and I’d rather not have a stinging cheek again.

“And what if you’re wrong?” I kissed her head, breathing in her scent. The water wasn’t as cold as it had been earlier. It was like her heat alone was like lava rocks and heating up the ater.

Her eyes flutter open, staring at me intensely. ” Then you intensely. “Then you better make sure you shoot a mini you inside me next time.” she jested, smiling and then her face tied up in pain.

Xade?” she whispered, her voice a bit shaky with fear as she tries to sit up, just as she cough. Her hand press to her lips to stop the cough and when she retracts it, her hands shook when crimson dots on her palm.
