Chapter 123 Gwen

• I left the dining room and hurried away to hide in my chamber where I won't be chanced to be confronted with Ashton's coldness. He didn't need to hit me to break my inner self. Solely words, wicked words and I was broken to pieces.
• The sooner I was in, I lapped against the door frame, slid down the length of it, and cried my heart out. I felt my body rock in raw pain. So much pain for this circumstance which I found myself that was utterly beyond me. I always thought I could handle anything thrust at me. No matter the intensity.
• But this, this was totally above my capacity and the more I considered it, the more I realize that it might be the end of me. I was stalling for time, praying, hoping to shift and meet my wolf and see if there would be a miracle of a child before Ashton raised a question.
