Long Awaited Mate Is A Baby novel Chapter 31

Allie scoffs. "That's not me. Also, that baby looks way older than one month, and if that was me, you wouldn't look exactly the same as you do now,"

I feel like my heart breaks again, if it even possible. "No, Allie you don't understand. Don't you remember how I always told you how special you were? How you gre up so fast and did things that no other baby could? We've been mates since you were a baby Allie,"

She shakes her head, a tear falling down her cheek. "That was me and Kaden. Not you," She wipes another tear off. "Move on,"

I sigh and flio through to find another picture. I show it to her. "This is the day you came to see me and you told me your dad ate all of your cookies, remember? You said you wanted one, and I got them for you. Don't you remember that?"

Allie's tears fall more freely now. "Have you been stalking me and Kaden, trying to find out all of our stories? What kind of sick person are you?"

A tear of my own slips free. "What? No, Allie, that's me in these.pictures. I have more I can show you-" I quickly flip through my gallery again, searching for the pictures that I know are there. But as soon as I find another one, my phone dies on me.

"No," I moan, throwing my head into my hands. I start to cry harder. "No, no, no. This isn't happening,"

Everything seems to collapse on top of me. I don't know how to show her...

Wait...

The mate bond! If she touches me, she'll feel sparks like she used to, right? I hope so...

"Allie," I croak, my voice dry. "Can I see your hand?"

She quickly jumps off the bed and away from me. "No! I don't want you to touch me!"

'This is hopeless,' my wolf whines. 'I just want mate back,'

'Trust me, I do too,'

"Allie, please. Trust me," I beg.

"How can I trust the person that killed my mate? Your insane,"

I start to cry again. I know I'm acting like a child, maybe even like a baby, but I just can't help it. My mate hates me, and I don't think I'll ever get her back.

"Is there water in here?" Allie mumbles to herself.

Even in my broken state, I respond to her. "Over there, counter," I point towards it before I stop myself. "I'll get it,"

I shuffle over like a zombie and grab a bottle for her, opening it halfway.

I hand it to her w he I reach the bed again, and she takes it, taking the cap off before drinking some of it.

"When did you get here?" Allie asks softly, her voice partly muffled. "I was sure that wasn't a dream..."

Her words make me stop dead in my tracks. What is she getting at?

"Allie, baby," I sigh. "I've been here the whole time. What are you talking about?" I pull her head up so she can meet my eyes.

But Allie shakes her head. "No, you haven't been. I would know if you were and you weren't,"

My knees suddenly start to buckle, and I quickly move over to the edge of the bed, sitting down on it with Allie tucked in my lap.

"Allie," I take her face in my hands. "I've been in this room with you the entire time since I found you at that old shack. You thought I was someone else, but I was here. Do you not remember that?"

She shakes her head, her brow arched in confusion.

"Can you tell me what you do remember then?"

She nods, her eyes going glassy as she thinks over the memories in her head.

"After I passed out, I woke up in a shack with you across the room from me. You didn't really talk to me though, which I thought was weird, all you said was to be quiet. So I did. But then this guy came in, and he scared the daylights out of me. It was awful, Kaden, you don't understand. He killed you right in front of me. Or I guess I thought he did," She pauses abruptly, choking on her words.
