Chapter 92


    Shackled (The Lord Series)


    92. Angel


    I have been tossing in bed for more than ten hours, trying to convince myself to get out of bed and face


    Stefan, but the idea of having to learn how happy he is with Emily causes me so much pain. So I have


    been hiding in my room sincest night.


    Since when are you such a coward Angel?


    Pretending Alekos and Reyes were a man 1 randomly


    1.


    ly met in La Palma, no problem, but having to talk to Stefan has my anxiety levels skyrocketing


    I should not have let Alekos and Reyes fack me before we talked about everything, but Alekos telling


    me he was single gave me hope that maybe he refused to be with Emily because he truly cares for me.


    Of course, it can all be in my head, but is it wrong to want to be happy with my mate? All of them? Not


    that it will be possible, but dreaming costs nothing


    And Reyes…when I saw him in the doorframe, his eyes red and full of pure madness, I knew I was the


    only one to ground him, so I let him back into my life.


    St upid. Angri, xa st upid, Just because they know how to f uck and treated me nicely for seven days


    doesn’t mean s hit,


    But I was so lonely, and the idea of having to raise my baby alone made me so sad… and their touch


    makes t


    the pain in my c


    chest bearable


    I should have listened to Wasp and remained in the Sanctuary. Her and the others were more than


    happy to help me with the baby. While the idea was tempting, I wanted to find someone to ept the


    baby and me onto his life. I did not n for that someone to be Alekos and Beyes, but when one of


    them is the father, and with both of them wanting me, I couldn’t say no because my heart still wants


    them. So many nights Iid awake in bed wondering why I wasn’t mough for them and why they left me


    in the facility. Maybe Stefan didn’t tell Alos about the email? Then why did theye after me? At least


    Stefan did.


    And what about Emily?


    Never should I have let my role-f ucking-y fantasy take over my life. Instead, I should have asked


    why they kicked me out of their apartment and abandoned me to my fate and why they suddenly want


    me back. If they want me back. What if Stefan showed Alekos may email?


    Everything is so confusing


    What if they only want my baby because Emily can’t give them one? G od knows what was done to her


    in that horrible ce. My hands wrap around my belly. The f uck I will let them have my baby.


    i makes my head


    Should I call Beetle and tell her I am in trouble? Maybe I should return to the Sanctuary. I bury my face


    in the pillow and groan. The entire situation a spin.


    Carlos is looking for me. Of course, he is. At least Reyes is after him.


    Reyes is the Bu tcher.


    One of my mutes is a serial killer.


    He killed for me.


    I don’t know if I should ask him to murry me or f uck him so good he will be the one proposing.


    Something must be wrong with me if I am not disgusted that Reyes killed so many men. But they but


    me so badly that I still have nightmares about them torturing mr. Who knows how many women went


    through the same at their hands? Reps getting rid of them was not a bad idea.


    But what will happen when the police discover the Dutcher’s real identity? What if they alr And now


    Reyes will kill some more and be caught and sent to prison.


    if they already did, and that’s why Alekos had to leave so suddenly to the States?


    D amn!


    Someone has to stop Reyes and make him see reason. He might not listen to Stefanor Alekos, but he


    will listen to me.


    I grab my phone and dial his number, but he is out of reach. I start to feel sick. Maybe Stefan spoke to


    Reyes, and he knows where he is?

    92. Angel


    I get out of bed and unlock and open the door, Stefan is standing in front of my bedroom, his hands in


    his pockets. His hair is ruffled, and thest three buttons of his shirt are undone, revealing his chest.. A


    few red and ugly scars peek from beneath the shirt.


    Without thinking, I reach out my hand. “What happened


    He moves before my fingers e


    can touch him,


    “Nothing.” His tone is cold as always,


    Stup id, Angel, stupi d. I know how Stefan is, why bother?


    We stare at each other, an awkward silence falls around us.


    With


    Reyes on my mind, I say, “Have you just


    at the same time as Stefan speaks, “Do you-


    His gaze goes to my stomach. Does he still want to touch it? I can’t bring myself to let him feel the


    baby. Not when I know how much he dislikes me. If he wants a baby, he can go make one with Emily.


    My baby already has a father, only that I don’t know if it in Reyes or Alekos.


    “Can I?” he asks, his hand going


    ng for my stomach.


    My palms cover it. I don’t know why the ides of Stein touching me doesn’t sit well with me. His


    shoulders drop. I have no problems when Reyes or Alekos do it


    Taking a deep breath. Fask, “Did Reyes contact you? I tried calling him, but my call won’t go through.”


    “I haven’t spoken to him sincest night. Do you need anything? I would be more than happy to
