Long Awaited Mate Is A Baby novel Chapter 14

Kaden's voice cuts off abruptly and it's replaced with a horrifying ripping sound. Well, it's not like a ripping, its more like sobbing. It sounds like my cry after Bubba threw me down.

Once I can identify the sound, I can figure out where it coming from. My favorite person in the entire world, Kaden, is crying. For me. I made him cry. And just the thought brings tears to my own eyes. I can't hold them back.

I feel a small one run down my face, slicing through my skin and leaving a trail of salt water behind.

And Kaden notices.

"Allie?" he says, his voice slightly raspy. "Baby, are you awake? Can you hear me? Baby, please," He's begging me now.

His voice hurts me in a way I never knew was possible and I use every last ounce of my strength to force my small eyes open. It feels like breaking open something that's been shut with super glue, but I manage.

My eyes flutter open softly and I meet the warm gaze of the only person I know I never want to leave me.

Kaden's POV

I stare with my mouth wide open at the sight in front of me. Allie, who was passed out more than a minute ago is now sitting up straight and staring at me.

Without thinking, I lunge towards her and cradle her in my arms, determined to never let her go again.

She wraps her small arms around my neck as best she can and holds on to me as tight as I am to her. Its comforting to know She wants me too.

"I missed you," I murmur into her hair. "Never do that again. You scared me,"

Allie lifts her head slightly and smiles at me. All the sadness an anger from The past two weeks fades away when Allie looks at me. I can see her crystal eyes clearly, and I know that ahs really all right.

"You're head doesn't hurt anymore does it?" I ask, starting to get nervous again and almost running out the room to grab a doctor.

But Allie takes her small hand and grips my arm before I can, trying to pull me back to her. "I'm fine," she says. Her bell-like voice comforts and calms me immensely, so I sit back down beside her bed, clutching her hand that disappears in the size of mine.

"Where is my bubba?" Allie asks me, maybe a little sheepishly. I can understand why.

"I don't know, baby," I answer truthfully. John and Jack took him somewhere, and as long as that place isn't near Allie, I don't care.

I look down at Allie who is looking at me expectedly. Waiting for an answer.

"I think your Bubba doesn't like me because he knows I don't like him,"

Allie makes a face, scrunching her nose and mouth up. "Why don't you like him?"

I almost laugh at this version of Allie. The curious one who keeps asking tons of questions. But I'm not complaining, I like her voice.

"Because he tried to take you from me, and he almost did," My voice falters a little at the end of my statement, thinking what I would have done if Allie never woke up. I would have eventually died, I'm sure. I need her as much as I need food, water, or air. I can't survive without her.

Allie lifts her head to get a better look at me and states right into my eyes. Her blue one's are wide, and strong, and in that moment, I realize how quickly Allie is really growing. She's changing right before my eyes, and my time with this baby version of Allie is coming to an end.

And soon, she'll be big, and grown, and we'll be like real mates. As long as se doesn't reject me.

'Don't think like that!' my wolf scolds, trying to hide the fact that the thought upsets him. And to tell the truth, the idea hurts me too. Its the first time I've really thought about Allie rejecting us and just the mere thought makes me want to crawl in a hole and die. I wouldn't want to be in a world where Allie doesn't love me.
