Chapter 60

Chelsey's view.
"No, it can't be. It has to be the promised one, or they'll be cursed like me, as the fates decided hundreds of years ago." Both for myself and for Enzo, part of my heart breaks. Even though he hasn't done anything to deserve my sadness, a part of me feels bad for him, but I can't fix it. Cain is my mate and the father of our unborn pups. I love him. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn't help Enzo... "I'm not sure what to say to my dad..." I look at him funny because he's talking to me like I'm the only one who'll listen. "I'm afraid of what he'll do if I tell him. He could kill your dog or, even worse, you. I couldn't stand that. I know you don't know me, Chelsey, and I know I haven't done anything to earn your trust, but I need you to know I won't let him hurt you or your baby... So long have I dreamed of you, and now you're here? I'm too dumb to let anything bad happen to you... I know that makes me look stupid and weak, which you can use to your advantage, but it's the truth. I didn't want to leave you, Chelsey.I only want you to be happy, even if that means being with someone else. I had no choice, though, because he would have killed me if I didn't."
I would have fallen to my knees when he told me what he knew. Tears come out of nowhere and fall from my eyes... for Enzo. His words carry weight. I can tell that he didn't want things to be this way. If his father finds out I'm pregnant, he'll either kill me or end the pregnancy.
