Todos os capítulos de The Hellhound Beta's Pregnant Mate: Capítulo 21 - Capítulo 30

Whether it was the tea, the mate-bond or the good night's sleep, Thalia did in fact feel better the next morning. Her body still ached in places like she had been in a fight, but her bones had set and torn ligaments and muscles had stitched together. Even Maeve seemed to have perked up, her energy slowly returning. She found fresh towels sat next to a pile of folded clothing. It wasn't anything like the garments that Dante and Ms Thorton liked to dress her in but oddly they were more comfortable. After a shower to wash away the dried blood, sweat and dirt, Thalia pulled on the simple white underwear, black leggings and large grey knitted jumper. The moment she pulled it over her head she caught the scent of pine needles, wood fire smoke and snow. It soothed her as she inhaled the faint but alluring scent. It didn't take a detective to work out the jumper belonged to her mate, and she caught herself smiling despite herself. The smell of food hit Thalia like a freight train when she

When Kade had mentioned caravans, Thalia wasn't sure what to expect. As a kid she had seen plenty of tourists travelling from the likes of Germany or France with caravans or campervans. It seemed a bit claustrophobic but, in the summer, dozens if not hundreds would appear, trundling through the narrow streets of the old towns or villages or parking up in lay-bys near the sea. They were homes on wheels and yet despite being relatively small, they seemed to struggle to traverse the roads and streets of Greece let alone do it with any grace.  But what Kade brought Thalia was very different from what she remembered about caravans. It was definitely a caravan, but it had wooden steps and a small veranda attached to it. There were no wheels either. Instead, the large rectangular structure was resting on concrete stilts. It wasn't alone either. There were dozens of similar buildings dotted around the clearing. Surprisingly there were no other people around though.

All this driving or running back and forth was starting to wear Kade down. He never slept well to begin with, but it felt like a week had passed since he last got any semblance of rest. It didn't help that for the last few nights, his mate had been sleeping in the next room or just upstairs. The mate bond tugged at his instincts and thoughts continuously. It felt like post-drinking anxiety which was trying to grow the more he ignored it. It was safe to say that the mate-bond and the lack of sleep were making him very cranky. It took everything in him not to lose his temper when Daniel had called him and told him to come back to the patch house by the following morning. He just wanted one day where he wasn't running around after murderers or arguing with witches about pregnant mates. He really could do with just one day where all he had to focus on was Thalia and what exactly he was going to do about his exotic mate. It was late when he made it back to the holiday park. He had walke

Kade had learnt a lot of things over the years in the military, as a beta and worse but one of the few important lessons Kade had learned was never let the bad guy see that they caught you off guard.  It wasn't easy to learn but Kade's natural facial expression was either annoyed or emotionless anyway. He had compensated a lot through the years with smart arse comments, sarcasm and cheekiness when it came to his inner circle. But it was all a front, a way to keep people at a distance. Sure, there would always be a few people who saw right through the act but, so long as the bad guys didn't see that they had gotten a reaction from you then you were doing well.  So that's why, when Lucien Connaught introduced himself and brought up Thalia, Kade didn't so much as bat an eyelid. Instead, he remained silent as he picked up his mug of whiskey with a shot of coffee and took a large gulp. He knew Lucien wasn't alone. Another group had walk

Kade was gone.  Thalia barely registered the mobile phone falling from her fingers and clattering to the floor or her legs giving out underneath her. Kade was gone. He was dead and Thalia had been clueless.  She had barely known him and yet Thalia's heart was shattering like thousands of pieces of glass. The agony of loss radiated through her like a bullet wound, bleeding poison into her veins and paralysing her mind. It didn't feel real. They had only just found each other against all the odds and now Kade had been snatched away.  Thalia remembered the last morning Kade had been here, the warmth of his lips on hers as he kissed her goodbye and how he promised he would be back. His large hand had cupped her cheek and she had fallen into those grey eyes willingly. She had wanted to remember every little detail about them while also hoping that time would pass quickly so she could gaze into her mate's eyes a
