Chapter 259 Book 3 The Cursed Alpha's Mate

• "Just listen to me even if it's for one minute." He grabbed my hand as I turned to leave. "I know I've hurt you but I have so much on my chest that I want to say to you."
• "Why should I care that you have so much on your mind? How is it my place to help you get things off your chest?" I pulled my hand from Lucien's grasp, grateful for the things Valens had taught me. Before then, I always found it hard to get out of Lucien's grip but now I did it with ease.
