Pregnant I left him To His First Love

Leila's eyes fly wide open, her heart thrumming loud in her ears as she glances from Tatum to Antonio in obvious shock. The Lycan king is her second chance mate?

The same murderous, ruthless monster which horrors she has heard of is Antonio? How is that even possible? The man looks like an angel, the best of them all but if he really is the king, then things will get catastrophic. According to Tristan, it was the king who killed the witch and tried to kill him and now that she sees Antonio again, his description perfectly fits what Tristan has.

"I didn't know you were the king," Leila bows, keeping a smile on her face, despite the nervous storm in her heart.

Antonio smiles at her, wiping a strand of hair off her face gently, his eyes holding admiration for her.

"There are many horrible rumours about me because of my mysterious nature, kitten and I didn't want to scare you away," he says in a soft angelic voice, holding her arms and staring passionately into her eyes.

A low growl tears from Tatum whose gaze is as hard as a rock and they both turn their eyes to him, Leila pulling her hands away from Antonio's hold.

"I can sense your wolf's anger that I'm touching her," Antonio squints at Tatum, "why, is she your mate?" he demands, his voice becoming dead serious, losing the soft edge to it.

"No, he's not," Leila replies sharply, almost rolling her eyes at Tatum.

She is not his mate, Carmela is, the woman he condemned her to death for.

"I saw you holding him, the way you shoved him and the look he had in his eyes, looked more like a lover's squabble to me. Don't tell me the Alpha of the blood oak pack has eyes for another woman despite his precious phoenix luna?" Antonio replies, his eyes fixed on Tatum.

"I didn't know my engagement and wedding mattered so much that it caught the attention of the great Lycan king," Tatum replies, his face showing zero amusement.noveldrama

"Do not flatter yourself too much Alpha Tatum, I'm only here for my kitten," Antonio holds Leila's hands and plants a soft kiss on the back of her palm, not breaking his gaze from Tatum.

Leila keeps calm, smiling at Antonio. Something tells her that he can sense there is more between her and Tatum and she does not want to give it away.

Why?

"It is you who flatters me my king, how can a humble maiden of your kingdom make you leave your palace in search of her?" Leila smiles coquettishly, glancing to see Tatum's stoic eyes but she does not need to be told it pains him.

"What can I say, the goddess wills

and we obey Antonio replies with a coy smile before he turns to Tatum and his face turns cold. "Tatum, I

know it's your pack but it's my

kingdom and my mate, I don't el

I

comfortable with an engaged man around her, not after the way I saw you too. Will you be a good man and leave?"

Tatum keeps his face the same, not showing anger or irritation, just completely void of any kind of emotion.

"How long do you plan to stay in my...PACK?"

Antonio scoffs and a sinister smile

adorns his lips as he pulls away from Leila and closes the distance between him and Tatum, their faces barely inches apart, his eyes cold and dangerous and Leila can feel his dark and powerful aura growing.

"I don't need to give you that information, do I? And I was nice to ask," Antonio says in an icy low tone, "but now, it's an order. Leave."

Tatum doesn't move an inch, doesn't bat an eyelid, doesn't flinch despite Antonio's heavy aura bearing down on him, almost suffocating Leila herself and Leila quickly steps in between them, pulling Antonio away.

"Since you're here and we're

celebrating, why don't I introduce you to my friends? It's not everyday the king strolls into a small

gathering like this," she points to Amanda, her mother and the rest of the girls who are active spectators of the scene in front of them.

"Mama!"

Amara runs out of the house towards Leila at this moment and Antonio immediately snaps his eyes to her in shock before looking back at Leila.

"So this is the child?"
