Chapter: Chapter 207 - A NIGHT WITH THE OMEGA JACE BALDWIN'S POV Bliss didn't come close to how I felt this past week.For a dying man, I had almost everything I wanted.I had the most important person I'd ever wanted by my side.Carly. My little omega.I wanted to spend the last days I had with the woman I adored and she was there.I was one lucky man.But I had one final wish and I hoped the Moon Goddess would grant me one last wish before I got sunken completely by the plague that plagued my bloodline.I wanted to see my son.Carly told me he was my spitting image but that wasn't enough, I wanted to hold him in my arms.Carly had promised me that she was going to find the Wolf to cure our son when he came of age but that would no longer be necessary as Ian had already found her.It was just a matter of time and everything will be alright.But, there was a slight hiccup with our latest discovery because the woman was adamant she knew nothing about the existence of the wolf we were talking about.She insisted that the thriving

Chapter: Chapter 206 - RIGHT PLACE AT THE RIGHT TIME CARLY WOODS POV The next morning, I woke up with a content smile stretching out my lips.Scooting to the edge of the bed, I didn't get the chance to sit up when a hand shot out and instantly pulled me back into a muscled chest behind me."Five more minutes." Jace mumbles, his husky voice making my stomach melt. From behind, his fingers reached out to pull stray strands out of my face"But you said that twenty minutes ago." I pushed my back against his chest, his hands shaking my waist."I love having you in my arms, babe. I promise, twenty minutes and I'll let you go.""Ugh huh? Too bad though, my bladder doesn't seem to agree with you." Turning over in his arms, I grinned at him and then placed a light kiss on his lips."Fine, don't take too long though."I giggled as I skipped to the washroom.That has been our morning pattern this past week.The night Jace broke down and opened up to me changed everything.After the first kiss we shared in a long time, Jace begged me to forgive h

Chapter: Chapter 205 - HE CHANGED HIS MINDCARLY WOODS POV "What are you talking about?" I knew what he was talking about but I didn't hold my breath and wish he had opened up and told me everything.I know how this works. He will try to tell me about their sick bet but change his mind last second."That night..." He stopped to clear his throat, his face was apologetic as he tried again to hold my hands but I moved mine from his reach."What night? What are you talking about?"I'm not sure if I was ready to hear whatever he wanted to say.Partly because I didn't know how I'd take it."At the club..." He trailed off, his voice thick with guilt.Jace hung his head in shame and guilt, some strands of his soft caramel bangs fell and dangled before his forehead."You don't have to remind me of that night, Jace. It was a mistake. Addison and your friends were drunk and didn't know what they put you up to." I shrugged casually while using all my resolve not to push his hair back no matter how tempting it was."We weren't exactly d

Chapter: Chapter 204 - NOT THAT PERSON JACE BALDWIN'S POV The next three days, I spent them tending to Carly's needs.I didn't mind the cold shoulders I was receiving from her. I just wanted to take care of her the best I could.I wanted to spoil her but I knew now wasn't the best time for an elaborate shopping spree and endless hours in a spa.She longed to have Hunter back and I swore to her that I'll do everything in my power to get him back.Even though it meant losing my life in the process. I didn't mind.After Addison's visit three days ago, Carly had insisted she visit her friend - Mia. I didn't object because I realized she wasn't asking to be permitted - she was simply informing me of where she'd be."In case anything comes up, you'll know where to find me."With that, she left without another word.For dinner that night, I surprised her with a chicken pot pie I had the head omega come in to prepare.I knew she loved the way the head omega cooked her chicken pot pie.But she came back full. She's had a big di

Chapter: Chapter 203 - THAT'S MY CUE CARLY WOODS POV "What is going on here?"The unmistakable voice of Alpha Jace Baldwin roared.I shifted my attention from the bleeding woman who was sprawled over the floor.The smell of blood mixed with the fresh aroma of baked cookies wasn't appealing to the nostrils.The dark-haired guard who stood by the kitchen door froze.I could smell the apocrine odor that coursed through his pores as the Alpha stopped by his side.The tension in the room was at its peak and the guard was seconds away from peeing his pants."Baby, she attacked me." I rolled my eyes in boredom as the words flew out of Addison's mouth.How long did she intend to keep running from growth?Without a word, I turned my attention to the task I had on hand.I refuse to be angered by her.I refuse to be angered by her.I refuse to be angered by her.I chanted like a mantra in my head, despite the burning feeling in my chestPicking up one of the large jars I left on the counter, I started placing the cookies neatly i

Chapter: Chapter 202 - DAUGHTER OF A DRUNK WITCH CARLY WOODS POV Last night, Jace had walked in unannounced and witnessed me breaking down.Even though he assured me by swearing that he'd get Hunter back, I didn't allow myself to be fooled by him.For all I know, he was only acting to gain my trust.After I left him and Ian in his office yesterday, I retired to my room where I spent the remainder of the day.I needed enough time to rest and mentally prep myself for when I meet Mia and Julian.Well, mostly Mia.I knew I had a lot of explaining to do. A lot of apologies to render.Jace had gathered me in his arms and tried to soothe me into a peaceful sleep while he lay beside me.His fingers drew soothing circles on my back.Just before sleep completely enveloped me, I overheard him calling Ian to push back a meeting to today.I wonder what it was about.I liked this room because it was far from Jace's room and it was in the opposite wing of the mansion.Away from the horrid memories even the few good ones I shared with him.Even th
