Landon's POV
I smiled faintly as I watched him bolt out of the room. He would probably ignore me for the next few days, or weeks… or more.
But I couldn't blame him. He had enough reasons to. Even in the past, whenever he ran from me, I'd later come to realize that he'd always had a reason.
How ridiculous that I had never truly understood this before. How blind I had been to what he was hiding all along.
My mind spun in endless circles.
"Shittt!" I muttered, the word slipping past my lips when the realization hit me—I hadn't told him he was my mate. I hadn't even asked him not to take his next dose of suppressants so I could prove it to him.
I'd made a grave mistake and my mind reeled with the weight of it. My thoughts twisted back to the timeline of his pregnancy.
"Five weeks, five days…" I whispered again under my breath.
