Chapter 76
Aaliyah
When I opened my eyes, I was in the front seat of Tristan's car. He was driving in high speed. Anger was etched into his brow as he gripped the steering wheel.
"I have failed you multiple times, Ali," he said. "I promise to protect you, yet I keep failing."
I frowned slightly. "How could you have known about the attack? Don't blame yourself."
"It's not about that, little mouse. You are my wife. You have my son in your womb. I can't imagine what would happen if this was an attack from the witches," he said.
"But I'm fine now," I replied.
"Fine?" he asked. "You have a vampire bite on your neck. Don't tell me you're fine, Ali."
I sighed.
"Let me swear a new oath to you," he murmured. "I promise that nothing like this will happen again. I will not let anyone hurt you. Not while you are pregnant."
Nothing would hurt me more than losing Tristan.
