Chapter 72

Not much had happened yesterday. Xavier stayed with me and his closeness was good for me. It was exactly what I needed. I fell asleep peacefully cuddled up to him, only this man could do that. After such a chaotic day, it was a miracle I fell asleep at all.

In the morning Xavier had to go to fulfill his alpha duties. I had no problem with that because I had some things to clarify. Xavier couldn't help me there, I had to do it myself.

I was currently waiting for my mum to finally answer my call. I sat on the bed and nervously tugged at my shirt, which made absolutely no sense. But I needed something to do as I was nervous. There were a few unexplained things and that would make anyone nervous.

Finally, she answered and said: "Hello Layla. I'm so sorry that I didn't say goodbye properly. That was not right of me. I hope Xavier has explained everything to you and even more that you can forgive me for that. " She had cycled down that without taking a breath.
