Selene POV
I burst into tears holding tightly unto Noah as soon as we were alone in his room.
I had practically just cut off every tie from my children's father and if they ever knew… they would not forgive me, especially Maeve and even Vina. Every child needs a father, I know this more than anyone but every child deserves a father that truly gives a shit. A dad that cares so much about them not the thing Xavier was practicing.
I sobbed in Noah's arms – he kept stroking my hair whispering sweet nothing to me until I was spent. I lay limp in his hands until he broke the silence.
"Do you want something to drink… or eat?" He asked.
"No!" I murmured pressing deeper into him "I love you, Noah…" I continued "It took me seeing you wrapped in that hospital bed for me to realize how much I cannot bear to stay without you and I know it's a bad way to realize that you love someone but I couldn't just help it. I love you so much," I pushed away from him to gauge his reaction.
