Chapter 161: He Is the Real Alpha
[Rose’s P.O.V.]
Once I heard Edward say these words, the tears that I had been struggling to hold back started streaming down my cheeks. But I still did not move. I did not dare to. I simply watched Edward slowly walk to , his eyes as handso as ever. Even the curvature of his lips was the sa enticing shape.
I could feel his hand gently caress my cheek, helping wipe away my tears. The texture and familiar warmth of his palm made choke up.
“Edward, is it really you?” My voice was broken and trembling. I reached out in response to touch him. But I just felt like I was in a daze. I didn’t know if all of this was also a dream, just like what I experienced in the bathtub the last ti. That had felt so real. What if I touched him and he disappeared? I couldn’t bear all of this.
“Dearest, it’s .”
He answered my words, then he lowered his head to et my hand still handing mid-air. I felt as if ti had stopped.
“This isn’t a dream?”
“This isn’t a dream, Baby. I’m sorry for what you’ve suffered. My dearest, Supre Luna, I’ve found you.”
Edward held my arm and pulled into his huge embrace, just like he always. But this ti, he was more eager than ever. He kissed my cheeks, my lips, my eyelashes, my eyes, and even my nose. His kisses rained down on like a slight drizzle.
I could feel my face flush. It had been a long ti since I had such a feeling. This wasn’t a dream. My Popeye was here, right in front of . This was the real him.
I cried and accepted every kiss as I stood on my tiptoes and wrapped my arms around his neck. I tried to pull us closer as if I would never be able to feel his warmth again.
“On my God, Alpha! Edward!”
When I finally jumped out of this dream-like scene, I couldn’t stop crying. The mory of that terrible ti played in my mind but that was quickly replaced by my true and happy mories with Edward.
I hugged him so hard that my fingers dug into his back. It was as if he would disappear if I let go. He bent over and buried his face in my neck. I felt his tears fall on my collarbone. I had never seen him cry before.
“Baby, my love, please forgive . I love you so much. Please tell that you still love deeply.”
Our foreheads were now pressed against each other as he mumbled with tears in his eyes. But I couldn’t answer him. My emotions had conquered . I just kept crying like a child.
After he gave so more kisses, I felt him step back a little and our connection was still strong. He crouched down and put his face close to my bulging belly before he started to kiss it. Every ti he did, the child in my belly kicked in return. I covered my eyes with my hands and bit my lips hard, trying not to cry out loud.
I placed my hand on his shoulder and he pressed his face against my stomach. He was still crying and I knew he could feel our child’s response to him. We stayed like that for a while.
By the ti he stood up again, Susanna had removed my disguise. I saw the part of myself that I missed in Edward’s clear, dark eyes. I wasn’t saying that Mona wasn’t great, but I liked the blond and blue-eyed version of myself more.
I pulled Edward onto the living room sofa because I’d been standing there for so long and was feeling a twinge in my foot.
Then I heard the doorknob turn in the living room.
