Allen had stood at the doorway not wanting to intrude on the conversation but his heart ached for the fact that he couldn't soothe Lexi's sadness and conflicting emotions.
He understood completely though. She was having the same feelings of doubt and disbelief that he had shared initially, but the difference was, she hadn't rejected them outright and instead, listened carefully to her father's advice.
In hindsight, he should have spoken to someone about his misgivings when he realized that Lexi was his mate.
Adam had made it clear that he would have been happy to talk to him about this when they discussed the whole situation in depth, but he had been so busy with Ann and the problems that they had been facing that he hadn't wanted to add to the burden they faced.
He had been so lost in thought he hadn't noticed Lexi glance across and spot him in the doorway.
