Katarina's PovI was fucked. I knew he would suspect Tak to be his son when Nathan said we had just started dating. He was the King and must have thought about it. Nathan had told me that Alpha Darren had gone to visit him at his hotel. He must have asked him about me.He hasn't said a word after I told him Tak was his son. Was he angry or shocked? I tried to read his expression but he had a blank expression. "You both will be coming with me," he finally said. I had already made up my mind to reject him before coming for the meeting."That won't be possible, Your Majesty. I have a life here and so does Tak.""Tak? Is that my son's name?" He asked and I nodded. "I know you might have an issue with me but I won't back down when it comes to my son." I knew he would want to fight for him."I don't have an issue with you, Your Majesty. It's been three years and although you left me, I don't resent you," I told him. I couldn't even if I wanted to. Something was pulling me to him. It must
Katarina's PovI walked to the pack house in haste. My decision has been made. I didn't want to think about it again before I changed my mind. Nathan was my first choice but might not be the best partner for me.Tyson had every right to me so I plan on sticking by him. Of course, there'll be rules of things I won't do since we just met. Feelings might grow with time. If it doesn't, we could just be a pair.My wolf laughed at me. I didn't care what she thought. I was planning on not letting her out in the meantime. She might jump on Tyson immediately when she gets an opportunity.The house smells of food. Different varieties of food. I was looking for Tak. We came together but I left him here so I could attend the meeting. I knew the scent of my son. His scent reminds me of the spring in Lakes valley. I walked to the kitchen and there he was. He was eating a cookie and beside him was Nathan. "Tak," I called out to him. He smiled at me. I walked up to him and ruffled his hair. "Don't
Katarina's PovNathan didn't look pleased with what I had just told him. He looked disappointed. Maybe a little bit heartbroken. I couldn't look at him cause I felt bad. He has been a good friend to me. I never imagined hurting him this way. I wasn't able to tell him about my decision last night. It seems he was avoiding me throughout the night. He must have heard our conversation. Or Tak must have told him that he has gotten a father. He didn't look surprised though. It felt like he knew already and was just waiting for me to tell him. "So you'll be going to Garden City with Tak?" He asked."Yes," I nodded."When?""Tyson said we can leave later in the day. I wanted to speak with you first.""Why? You could have just left. Looking at you right now is hard, you know." His words were harsh. Maybe I deserve them. "I didn't want to leave without speaking to you. You're my friend and have been a father figure to my son." He needed to know how important he was to me. I would not have b
Katarina's PovTyson walked into the room. Tak immediately went to him crying."It was a mistake, Daddy." Tyson looked at me for an explanation and I raised the broken music box. He sighed. "It's just a box, little man. I can get you another one if you want." He carried him up. Tak smiled happily."He said the music was too loud for his ears," I told Tyson. "Is he sensitive to sounds?" "No, this is the second time he is saying this." It felt strange but I didn't want to think about it."Are you okay little man? Do your ears still hurt?" He asked Tak. Tak shook his head. "When are we leaving? You didn't have to bring people to help me. I don't need a lot of things anyway," I told him. Most of the things here we're not very important to me. They are things I could easily replace."I just wanted to help. You're leaving your city just because of me so I want to fill my house with things you are familiar with."His words made me feel warm. I smiled at him. Tyson was a very thoughtful g
Tyson's PovWe quickly rushed into our rooms when we got to the hotel. Audrey was true to her words. Our rooms were ready by the time we got to the hotel. I tried not to make my disappointment obvious. This was not how I expected the night to go. Staying at the hotel on our first night together didn't sound right. Tak had asked if this was where we were going to stay. He was exhausted from the drive.Kat said that this was his first time traveling so it was taking a toll on him. I watched him throw up as soon as we got to our rooms. I need to get him drugs. "Will he be alright or do I need to get any drugs for him?" I asked Kat. She touched his head and sighed."He is burning up but I don't think it's serious. He just needs to rest. But to be on the safer side I'd like for him to take ibuprofen." I nodded. I called Audrey. She answered almost immediately. "Your Majesty, I was just notified by the hotel that you got in safely," she said. "Yes, I need someone to get me some pills."
Katarina's PovTyson had left us alone in the room. It was weird. As my mate, although I couldn't feel the mate bond, he should be feeling it. The urge to want to claim me. The intense feeling of wanting me near him. He didn't even look back after telling me, he won't be coming back tonight. He was hot one second and cold the next second. I didn't even know how to talk to him. I didn't have an appetite to eat. It was almost morning. I couldn't sleep all through the night. My wolf was restless. So was I. Where was he? I thought about calling him only to realize that I don't have his number.I heard a sound outside and went out. Tyson was back. "Did I wake you?" He asked. "No, I was already awake." I took some steps towards him. I don't know when it started but his scent was driving me crazy. "You didn't eat?" He saw the untouched food on the table. "I wasn't hungry," I answered. Like a moth to a flame, I was drawn to him. He didn't seem to notice though. Was this the attraction
Tyson's PovI stared at my mate sleeping deeply beside me. She looked peaceful. With the rays of the sun glowing on her face, I was mesmerized. It felt like a dream.Finding her years ago was by luck. Seeing her again, and being with her now is the work of the Moon Goddess.Last night was a game changer for our relationship. For the first time since acknowledging her as my mate, I felt connected to her. The unreasonable feeling to protect every strand of her hair. I never for once thought we would progress this fast. My wolf had always wanted to be intimate with his mate from the first day. I'm not a saint because I wanted it too but had to restrain my urges. Acting on my every thought would have only made things worse.My stubborn mate. She acts calm and tough but I could see right through her. She's a soft hearted woman who loves passionately. I could envision how beautiful our life could be. The only problem was that she was rejecting my mark. My wolf had tried severally to mark
Grant's PovI punched Vic in the stomach again and again. How dare he go against my orders? His silly mistake almost cost me, my second mate. My wolf was teetering at the surface, trying to come out. "I'm sorry," he cried out. "I'm sorry, Alpha. It won't happen again." His plea made me stop hitting him. He was on the floor and bleeding. I looked at his bleeding face, still not satisfied. My wolf wanted him dead. "He tried to kill our mate, kill him," my wolf urged me. I took deep breaths to calm myself down and not go over the edge. I needed Vic now more than ever."Who told you about her?" I growled. "It was the Boss. I didn't want to do it but he told me that was what you wanted. I saw you always watching her and thought that was what you wanted." He crawled and held my legs. Vic was my Beta and I never thought he would take orders from someone else apart from me. He was the only one I trusted. "How did the Boss know what I was doing?" "I don't know Alpha," he shook his head
