Chapter 39
It smelled like a mixture of lavender and cinnamon. It was so good that I wanted to lick it.
Hmmm...
My body jolted up as my eyes snapped open when it finally hit me with what I was smelling.
Andrea!
My head snapped to my side, searching for her while my heart was thudding loudly in my chest.
I found her at her side of the bed, in a coiled position, hugging the blanket tightly against her body. She was sleeping peacefully, purring softly in her sleep.
My eyes started to water as I inhaled more of her scent. It was too faint, but it was enough to wake up my senses.
But I was not alone. Zion, my wolf, growled in my head.
MATE.
He was claiming Andrea as our mate. I wasn't hallucinating. I smelled her. And if my wolf acknowledged the bond, it meant one thing. He could sense Andrea's wolf as his mate.
I shifted my weight and crept behind Andrea's body, burying my nose in the back of her neck and inhalin

CASPIAN. I was outside the packhouse talking with Gamma Carlos about the training schedule that he had reshuffled when I received a mindlink from my Beta. Riley was on the phone, and he refused to hang up until he talked with me. With a creased forehead, I made my way inside the packhouse, glancing at the kitchen as I passed by. I saw Andrea with her back in the hallway as she talked with the cook scheduled for today. She woke an hour ago and was now helping out in the kitchen preparing breakfast. She went inside my office and sat on my lap as she usually does, but she didn't seem to find anything strange or unusual about me. I tried to act as if nothing was going on, despite the turmoil within me. I wanted to tell her about her scent, but I was not sure of myself either. And the last thing I wanted was to raise her hopes high just to disappoint her. So I kept it to myself, even if it was killing me. I opened the door to my off

ANDREA. I didn't have any idea how long I'd been standing in the middle of Caspian's room just looking at his bed. Many different emotions were surging in my chest, and I tried my hardest to control them all. Anger. Fear. Sadness. Agony. Longing. Love. I knew someday Caspian would come to understand me. He might be angered by my decision, but I was doing this for him. Riley wouldn't stop until he staked his claim on me. He has been present for the last three years of my life, and although he hasn't done anything to physically torture me, he has succeeded in torturing me emotionally. I knew what he could do. And I knew I had this coming for me. But not Caspian. He could still get away from Riley. And that was what I wanted to do. I wanted to take him away from all of this. I held the letter I'd written for Caspian for the last hour tightly in my chest before bringing it onto my lips to leave a kiss and slipping it under his side t

CASPIAN. I shut off everyone while I let Zion out. We ran. We kept running until our body expired and we laid out flat in the hillside meadow. It was only then that I opened my mindlink and voices came from everywhere, even those not directly sent to me. I cleared my mind and wiped out the other conversations running in my mind from every mindlink in my pack. And then my Beta's voice dug into my head. 'I'm taking Andrea to the border. Riley is already there.' I didn't reply and remained spread out naked in the middle of the meadow. It was for the best that I didn't see her before she left. I didn't trust myself that I would stay quiet and let Riley take her without any fight. But the last thing I wanted was for Riley to take her and punish her later on for my actions. So I remained where I was. Until I couldn't anymore. I rose up from laying down and immediately shifted back into my wolf form

ANDREA. I smiled weakly at Jenny before walking away from her and her mate, Gamma Sebastian, as Riley was guiding me towards the pack house, his hand securing mine tightly. I was trying my best not to let out a sigh. I needed to be calm if I wanted to make Riley believe I was okay with this setup. I heard him say he would bring me to our room, and it took so much effort on my end not to flinch. Although I have shared a bed with Caspian, I did it out of love. And I had no plans to just jump into another man's bed if I had a choice. But I didn't know how I could stop him from doing this. Sweat formed on my forehead as we reached the fourth floor of the packhouse. I had never been here before, and if I remembered it right, this floor belonged to the Alpha alone when I was still a small girl tagging along with my mother whenever she went here for work. So this floor belongs to Riley now. Bile threatened to rise from my th

CASPIAN. It was almost evening when Beta Paul sent me a mindlink saying that Tanya had arrived and they were on their way to the pack house. I asked him if she had any idea why she was called, and my Beta chuckled before answering. 'Well, she was saying you couldn't wait to see her after Andrea was out of the picture. Her exact words, not mine.' I coiled my hand into a fist as I closed my eyes. I was trying to fight my wolf, Zion from coming out. He was angry. Zion had always been protective of Andrea, but now that he scented her as his mate, even if we were still unsure, he became more possessive of her. He has been creating havoc in my thoughts since she left. He wanted Andrea back and wanted us to barge into Riley's territory to stake our claim. I wish it was that easy. I was always known for my calculated steps, and I just couldn't go there and start an attack on something I knew I would eventually lose. That was the thing ab

ANDREA. I've been here for two days now, and so far, Riley hasn't done anything to hurt me, at least physically. After his outburst outside my bedroom when he tried to kiss me, he acted as if nothing had happened. And it has been like that since then. We didn't talk about the pact or what his plans were, but he did take me everywhere around the territory, introducing me as his female. I would internally flinch whenever he would say those words. and although a part of me wanted to defy him, I was scared. What could an omega do against an Alpha inside his own territory surrounded by his loyal men? I was helpless. The only thing that could save me was my calmness and my belief that somewhere inside Riley was the good-hearted boy I grew up with. I tried to be strong while keeping my distance from him whenever I could. But in the solace of my own room, I would wallow in the pain of missing Caspian. I wanted badly to call him, but for what? It

ANDREA. Sweat formed on my hands as I stepped out of Jenny's car and stood at the front of the gate of a small gray-colored house. This was the address that Riley gave us. And the prospect of meeting my grandmother for the first time elicited a wide range of emotions in me. I couldn't, for the life of me, remember anything about her. My mother never talked about her or about my father's parents. I grew up thinking it was just the three of us. And I was okay with that. But now, standing here outside her home, I wish I had met her before. Then maybe I could have someone with whom I could share all my emotions and fears. Maybe things would have been different. I pressed the small button attached to the post of the gate, and I heard it ring inside the small house. I saw movement in the window as someone peered from behind the curtain, but I couldn't see through it. The inside of the house was dark. And then the front door opened. My jaw dr

ANDREA. I couldn't stop myself from crying as I sat beside Jenny as we drove back home. I was thankful that Jenny wasn't asking anything, so we remained quiet until we reached the packhouse. She parked her car, and my eyes darted to where Riley's car was usually parked. I felt relief coursing through me. He wasn't home yet. I didn't need to explain why I was crying. I stayed seated in my seat, just contemplating my next move. Even though I kept telling myself that there was a slim chance for an Omega to be mated to an Alpha, a part of me was still hoping for that slim chance. But all hopes were gone. "Are you okay? Do you want to talk or would you rather be alone for now?" Jenny's voice was laced with concern. "Jenny, how did you know Sebastian was your mate?" "I smelt him." "What kind of smell? Don't you smell me, Riley, or Aaron?" "Well, Aaron smelled good. Alpha Riley and Alpha Jacob smelled good too. I can sme
