Love Grows In The Dark by Eli Lowe (read books for money TXT) 📕

At this moment, a lot of conflicting thoughts had already started to make a mess out of my mind, as I was slowly losing my mind.

I felt like I was drowning bit by bit and there was no one to save me and to get out of the water which kept snatching all the air away from me, leaving me breathless to die soon.

“Mate?” I called out for her as I was becoming desperate to hear her say just one word.

Whether she says yes or no, I was ready to accept any of her decision at this moment as I was feeling really weak this time.

The realisation of the fact that I can neither keep her by my side nor I can let her go, started breaking my heart already.

But I had to make it easier for Summer at least...for the sake of love if not for anything else.

“If you really do not want to live with me, then you can always reject me, you know.” Even though each and every single word was hard to say, still I said it out loud, to let Summer know that she was always free to make her own decisions, no matter how much I wished to be with her.

“But you need to answer, whatever it is.” I could not even finish my words properly, just when Summer opened her eyes at last and screamed all of a sudden.

“Nooo!!!!...” Just when our eyes met I saw her eyes went all red as tears flooded out of there and fell down on her cheeks in no time.

What?

What kind of answer was that?

She was saying no to me, yet she was crying as if...as if she was in a lot of pain.

I just did not get it.

“Hey!! Summer. Do not cry. I understand...” Even though my mind was in no state to solve the puzzle named Summer, still I could not see her crying for me. So I wanted to coax her, but little did I know what she was actually facing right at this moment.

“No no no. You, dumbass!!! Do not ever dare to ask me to reject you. Or else I will kill you right away.” She kept screaming like insane while tears never stopped falling from her eyes even for once.

I got relieved, thinking that she was not going to reject me at least.

Even so, I can clearly tell that something was definitely wrong with her. It seemed that she was really in pain, but what could it be?

Her forehead soon covered up with a lot of dots of sweats even when the night was a bit cold, as we were still near the lake. And she became restless all of a sudden and kept screaming, holding on to my arms ever so tightly that it was even hard for me not to feel the pain from her strong grip.

“What is wrong with you, Summer? What happened?” I asked being all clueless about Summer's such weird behaviour.

But she did not care to listen to my words at all and kept screaming, with her eyes tightly closed.

I held her tight in my arms in no time and tried to make her comfortable but nothing worked.

“What is happening. Answer me, Summer?” I had to yell at her, as she was really scaring the hell out of me, right at this moment.

“I...I do not know. It is painful. My...my belly is...” She did not have to say further as everything started to become all clear to me now, and it did not take much time for me to realise that we need to go back now, as fast as possible.

“Okay. We need to go to the hospital now.” With that, I stood up in an instant and scooped her up into my arms, so that we could reach the car, first.

But something even worse happened at that moment.

Summer screamed in pain once again and in no time I felt the rush of some kind of liquid which came out of her all of a sudden and soaked both our clothes.

“What is it? Are you alright, Summer? Talk to me, please.” I shouted, as everything which was happening to us right now, was absolutely new to us, or at least to me.

And all I know was that she was in pain and our pup was going to come out any time soon. Except that I knew nothing.

So, it was obvious that I was scared as hell.

“My...my water just broke. We...we do not have much time to go to the hospital now. I am...already in pain.” Summer said in her exhausted voice in between her painful screams, and kept clenching her swollen belly with both her hands tightly.

“So, what do we do now? What do you want me to do? Let me ask for help first.” I asked hurriedly, as the situation was not at all helping me to think of a way out.

“Put me down first. I need to push now.” She yelled at me and I had no other choice than listening to her words right at this instant.

I put her down on the soft grass-land just as she asked me to do, and kept holding her hand while she tried to push the pup out of her belly as if a mother knows the best what to do and when to do.

At this moment, I thought I should call for some help. So, I took out my phone and texted both Kaith and Markus, explaining the situation in short, so that they could bring with them, whatever they will think would be necessary.

“Kazan!!! See if it is coming out or not.” She screamed all of a sudden, making me even more scared.

“Wh-what?” I stuttered. I thought I might have misheard her for something else.

“I. Said... Look.
