Mia POV
I have started cleaning when my phone rang. I picked up the phone and see that it was Patrick calling.
"Hey, Patrick. Is everything okay?"
"Yeah, I don't really know. Liam had a fever last night. I gave him some medicine and hoped that it would go away, but it didn't. This is why I am calling you now."
"I am on my way." I dropped the call and basically ran to the car. I called the doctor on my way to Patrick's house. I made the appointment for around 10. It was the only time slot the doctor was free.
I knocked on the door at the house. Patrick opened up. It looks like he hasn't slept much.
"Liam is at the table," Patrick said while rubbing his eyes.
"Was there any other symptoms besides the fevers?" I asked walking into the house.
"No, only the fevers."
"I won't be able to stay. I will just be taking Liam. I have breakfast with Ava this morning."
"It is fine. Don't worry about it."
Liam and I said o
Grayson POVI have been at the cafe every day this week. I know I look like a stalker, but I am the only one that really knows that.I also brought my laptop with me so that I don't look too suspicious. I made sure not to make eye contact with anyone. I tried to look really busy to make sure no one wanted to talk to me.I did not hear anything that will be able to help me. I did however get the chance to plant a tracker on my mate's car. I am going to try and break into her car tonight while she is asleep. I know that it is extreme, but what else am I going to do?I followed her to her house yesterday. She went into her house at about 9 last night and came out only at 7. She dropped off her brother and then came directly to the cafe. Then she would go back home until she had to go fetch her brother from school.This has been her schedule for the whole week. It doesn't look like she is working, so I don't know how she is paying for anyth
Grayson POVI didn't sleep a wink last night. I kept thinking about my mate. She took me by surprise when she came and flirted with me. She is such a nice and unbelievably sexy woman.I am truly lucky to have someone like her be my mate.My phone rang just after 5 in the morning. I picked it up and see that it is the pack P.I"Hi, Jace. What do you have for me?""Jeeze. All you people are so rude. Hello, Jace. How are you doing, Jace? No, you just have to get straight to the point." I chuckled."Hello, Jace. How are you doing?" I reply back."I am doing really good, Grayson. My son was born a week ago." Now that I think about it no one really knows anything about Jace. What Jace just told me, it is not his fault."Well, congratulations. I am sorry that I took you away from your son." Jace is human and has been working for the pack for years. He is the only P.I I will trust with my life."It is okay. Let me give you the i
Mia POVI tried to sleep, but sleep evaded me the whole night. I kept thinking about the man from the pub.I have seen him every day this week at the cafe Ava and I go to. He always looks so aloof and busy.I only talked to him once and it makes me nervous to know that I act so different around him. I mean the first time I talked to the man, I flirted with him. I never dreamt that I am capable of doing anything like that.When I looked into his eyes last night something felt almost familiar about them. Like I have seen them somewhere before. I have been racking my brains trying to figure it out, but my mind is completely blank.I look at the clock and see that it is time for me to take Liam to school and then go to the cafe. We climb into the car and I made it to school and the cafe in record time. I hope Grayson is already there. If not then he is not that interested in me.I was the first to arrive. I look around and see that he isn'
Mia POVI dropped Liam off at home. My new housekeeper comes to collect him on the front porch0 Today is her first day.Miss Ronna Winton is a 40-year-old lady that has no children of her own. On her resume, she said she could cook and clean. It so happens that it is exactly what I need. When I told her about Liam she was only too happy to look after him after school.I made the choice to hire a housekeeper after Ava told me she has become increasingly busy with the wedding. I understand that. She took over the weddings from me when I started back at work.I walked into the pub and greet everyone that I passed by. This is what I love about this job. Everyone is friendly and we all get along great. It is almost like we are a little family.I made my way to the dressing area. All I had to do this evening is my make-up. There is no theme tonight.I did a pink eye-shadow to compliment the dress that I have on. The dress is light pink with bright
Grayson POVI stayed at home last night planning the perfect date for me and Mia. I decided on an early morning picnic. Just the 2 of us in the park.I really wanted to be at her show last night but I had to stop my wolf promising him that he will be with her soon.I called my mom early so that I can be done once I made my way to the cafe."So how is it going?" My mom asked as soon as she picked up the call."It is going great. We actually talked a bit and she told me that she likes me. I am planning a picnic for tomorrow. I just hope she likes it." My mom sound does excited."Well, you need to do this quick. I need some grandbabies.""Mom, slow down, please. This is our first date. I still have a long way to go.""Fine. Go get 'em, cowboy." My mom dropped the call and I couldn't help, but laugh. Talking to my mom gives me new hope.I walk into the cafe and waited. I sat there for 6hours. Just waiting for her to show up,
Grayson POVIt has been a week since Mia has spoken to me face-to-face. She doesn't even come to the cafe anymore. She avoids me in every aspect of her day.I even went to her work. She doesn't even look at me. Almost like she is disgusted with me.I am laying on my bed looking up at the ceiling. I just wished I knew what I did wrong. I have been over our conversation a million times and the only thing I can come up with is that she thinks I am either too young or too rich.My phone rings and I see that it is my mom."Hi, mom. I am sorry to inform you that I still haven't made more progress on Mia.""No, son listen. You need to come home. It is not going great with your grandfather." I can hear the urgency in her voice. Something is seriously wrong."What is wrong with him?""He was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. It is already at stage 4. There is nothing that they can do for him. The doctors said we need to say good-b
Mia POVIt has been a month since I last saw Grayson lurking at the pub. He only came and watched the first half of my set. I don't know if I should be happy or sad about it.I am happy because I am not sure how long I would have gone to ignore him. I may be mad at him but he pulls me like a magnet.Ava and I are back in our old routine. We go to eat breakfast every morning at the cafe. He doesn't even show up there.I guess he realized that he is going nowhere with me and just gave up.I am currently sitting at the cafe waiting for Ava. She said she had something important to share with me."Hi, doll." Ava falls on the chair. She asked me to get us a booth and not a table today."Hi, you look like you are in a good mood," I say smiling at her."O I am. We need to postpone the wedding." She said with a smile. How can anyone be happy about postponing their wedding?"Okay, this is bad news I think. Gathering from you
Grayson POVI have been home for a month. I stopped all communication with Mia as soon as I stepped off of the airport at home.Spending time with my family has taken my mind off of Mia. If only for a little while. I have a sit-down dinner with my mother. I decided to spend some time with her.I made a reservation for us at one of the 5-star restaurants in town. It is a pretty fancy place. My mom loves dressing up and that is why I picked this restaurant.The place's name is Fantasia. As the name suggests it has a fantasy theme. It looks like you walk into a castle. They even make you feel like a king and a queen."Mom, are you ready yet? We are going to be late." I scream up to my mom. She walks out of the room."Hold your horses. Perfection takes time."I lead my mom to the car. It didn't take that long to arrive at the restaurant. We were led to the back. This restaurant has tables in small glass rooms. Each table gets its ow
