Chapter 88
Reyna Cruz:
“Do you think I’m happy I asked her, and as she turned her face to look at me, she noticed the tears in my eyes.
“Then why? Why didn’t you wait until we arrived to make a deron, Reyna?” she yelled at me. But I wasn’t upset about her behavior, I knew she would be upset because she had been with the all this time, and I didn’t even include her when making

“Do you think if I had a choice. I would have done that? Polline, unter knew what he was doing when he sprung the deal on me. I wanted to call you and Sam, but Turner had my phone, and Hunter made it clear that if anyone left that room, he would take Turner and leave. He made me so scared for Turner, began to tear up and noticed that she looked away because she began to feel my pain. She was trying to look unafleted, but I knew that wasn’t true at all.

“Even if he would have taken Turner homie, I would have been very concerned. Do you know what he did? He introduced Tara as his second mate in the morning. He said he couldn’t let her go like that” I watched her face agape, and then tears. formed in her eves for me.
“I had to go there, or else Tara would I wanted her to know that it wasn’t just that Hunter would kick Tara out. He would have kept her around to punish me. And in that process, my son would have suffered too.
*I am
sorry. I was just very sad” she uttered and came to hug me.
“Come here as she pulled me into her embrace, I melted and began to sob
“I was so scared in that hotel room when Hunter threatened me that I would never see my kid again, Polline,” I sobbed on her shoulder for a solid few minutes before she comforted me, and we sat on the bed together.
“So he wants to punish you, she understood what was going on
“Why can’t he just leave me alone? Hasn’t he done enough?” I inquired, not understanding how he could justify his actions.
“Even it I did cheat on him, the year of loneliness and struggle would have been punishment enough for me. But Hunter was different. He wanted me to suffer till my last breath. He wasn’t moving on, and neither was he letting me move on.
“Hmm? Have you spoken to Sam?” she questioned, and as I shook my head, she nodded, “He went off the radar.”
“I don’t know what to make of him as well. He upset me so much. The way he talked about Turner’s situation so lightly, it made me wonder if he would have ever cared for Turner like a real father, I was confused why I couldn’t find peace
anymore
“And he tried marking you by force. I’m glad she didn’t forget how Sant reacted as well.
“Do you think you can ever justify his actions?” she questioned, and after thinking about her question for a brief moment, I shrugged. “I don’t know. I think it’s pretty fair to say that I did mess him up. He had made so many arrangements, and then he had to face them all. I don’t think what he did was right, but I would have never expected anything logical from him at that moment either, I agreed that his emotions were raw, and what he did was out of sheer frustration and betrayal.
“Now what?” she asked, holding my hand.
“Now I want you back in my life, Polline! I can’t lose everyone,” I said, and noticed that she seemed a little reluctant.
“Is there a problem” I asked, and she sneakily gave me the eye contact that she had been refusing to give.
“Eryna’ The rogues are not happy about what happened yesterday. They were saying you played their rogue king for an alphaking They then reminded everyone how much the rogue community had done for you, and in return, you left them. It’s messy. I don’t think I can come live with you at this moment because right now, they will think I have betrayed them as

well,” as she explained to me, I acknowledged that Hunter’s plan didn’t only ruin my relationship with Sam. Now, the rogues were against the pack people even more. And more specifically, me.
Are you okay here? Don’t you think you should come with me now more than ever?” I requested while not letting go of her hands.
“Reyna! I have people here that I know, and this business, I don’t want it to suffer. I will stay here, and I will be fine. They will think I lost contact with you and chose the rogue king over you. These things will die down soon because obviously, who could fight the alpha king? And then I will come back to live with you,” her pleasant smile comforted my heart.
“So you’
you’re not angry at me?” I questioned, and she playfully slapped the back of my head and then shook her head.
“Of course not. I’m not the one you were marrying she joked, and I laughed with her sadly before tears appeared in my
eyes.
“Oh my! I’m sorry. I was just joking. Wait for Sam to turn his phone back on. You will get to talk to him and then explain to him nicely what had transpired yesterday,” she gave me one last hug before I left her room. I didn’t want her to accompany me, and people seeing us together.
Hunter had been waiting for me in the car, and when he watched me come out, he rushed out of the car to approach me.
“Are y
“you okay?” he asked, looking around in worry.
“I am ashamed, thanks to you.” I grunted and slid into the backseat to carry my sleeping son in my lap.
“Ashamed why? It is not like you cheated on your fated mate,” his comment that he passed undertone made me thin and roll my eyes at him. I wasn’t ashamed of it because I never did that.
lips
“Never done that and obviously didn’t blackmail someone on their wedding day to marry me either.” I passed a comment too because I was feeling equally petty.
As Hunter sat in the car and started driving, he kept fixing the mirror to steal a glance at me.
*So, Polline’s still mad at you?” he asked, like he was trying to sneak information out of me.
“She is fine, just worried about the rogues, I sighed, folding my arms over my chest.
“Hm! Yeah! The rogues have lost their minds over this marriage. Why can’t they mind their own business?” Hunter shrugged, confusing me with his reaction.
“They love their rogue king like your pack members love you,” I almost raised my voice, hushing down when he clicked his tongue at me and warned me of Turner.
“You think so?” It was like he almost laughed at me.
“I do think so. They love Sam and worry about them because he had done a lot for them.” I argued back because it was one thing that he hated Sam out of personal reasons but to downplay his hard work was just too low of Hunter.
“Your rogue king doesn’t even love them,” he commented without showing any concerns in regards to the truth that everyone knew.
“Hunter, he made the rogue world a home to them,” I reminded him but his shrug gave away his nonchalant ignorance.
“He did all of that for himself only. You will find out about him spon, the confidence in Hunter’s tone stunned me, 1 frowned and almost laughed because I couldn’t believe he was expecting me to believe his words. He obviously wanted me to think low of Sam just because he hated the fact that his friend was my second chance mate and the same friend did not only hide that from him but chose me over his friendship with Hunter.
“We are shutting down our collaboration with him and have called our employees back, he then added, and goosebumps

It was like so much had happened in a matter of hours after I left that hotel room.
