A Divorce He Regrets (Raina and Alexander) novel Chapter 281

ALEXANDER

The moment my eyes fell on Raina, I forgot how to breathe. I just couldn’t.

She was sitting on the filthy ground that I was sure was cold. Her hands were tied and her hair was all over the place, it looked tangled and matted together by sweat and grease.

Her eyes locked with mine and I could see the unshed tears in them, she looked like she had been crying and I couldn’t understand the physical pain I felt. It felt like my heart was being stabbed multiple times over and over again.

God, she was shaking.

The tears that had welled up in her eye slid down her cheeks, leaving tear marks in their wake. She looked so small and broken and my heart broken even further just by looking at her.

I couldn’t think of what Nathan must have done to her. I didn’t want to think of it. I wouldn’t because if I did, my anger would take over the logical side of me and it would make me overheat and do something that wouldn’t help well for any of us.

I couldn’t afford that. Not now, it was too dangerous and I didn’t want to risk her and our baby’s life just because I couldn’t control myself.

I forced my body to remain still and as calm as possible even though every fiber of my body was screaming at me to run to Raina and hold her in my arms.

Nathan’s voice was what brought me out of my thoughts as it cut through the thick, smelling and tense air.

“Welcome boys,” he cooed with amusement, his lips curling into a sickly twisted smile. “Let’s not waste anymore time, shall we?”

I quickly scanned the room, my mind as sharp as a blade as I counted the amount of armed men that were present in the room.
