He Stole My Cat for His Secret LoverChapter 1

My boyfriend's childhood sweetheart's cat was dying, so she posted online begging for a kitten to donate blood.

At the same time, my cat vanished from the apartment.

After hours of frantic searching, I called my boyfriend for help.

Alex Simmons sounded almost bored. "Relax. Cheese is at the animal hospital donating blood."

"Lily Fox's cat is critical. I figured you'd say no, so I didn't bother telling you."

1.

"Alex, Cheese is my cat. You can't just take her without asking."

"You grabbed her and didn't send a single text. I've been out in the rain for hours like an idiot."

He sighed like I was the problem. "Serena, why are you being weird? Cheese is fine. Shouldn't you be relieved?"

Another sigh. "See? You're upset again."

"Lily was right about you. You're petty. If you'd known Cheese was donating blood for her kitten, you would've refused."

That snapped me out of my anger. A colder fear took over.

"You can't let Cheese donate blood."

"She's not even a year old. Her health was already fragile, and she just recovered from pancreatitis."

"Already done."

His tone turned clipped. Impatient.
