Semua Bab Rejected Mate: The Persistent Alpha Wants Me Back: Bab 41 - Bab 50

—Killian— I sit at the head of the table, trying to concentrate on this board meeting but it's impossible. I may be here in London but my heart and mind are over in New York with Lena. I never should have left but I've let the business fall behind lately and there's only so much that Nikki can handle and plus most of the pack depends on our company so I have to make sure it thrives. So that's why I'm sitting here listening to my board members talk about profit margins and expansions. Speaking of expansions, I'm sure they won't like it when I announce to them that our new branch opening in New York will now be our head office. I made this decision after I had to leave Lena again, the look on her face both times I'll never forget it. Tired of their incessant talk I decide it's time to end this meeting so I clear my throat loudly and the room goes silent. "Gentlemen and ladies as much as I would love to sit here all day and discuss our profit

—Kate— Ring Ring… The subscriber you are trying to call is not answering please try again later. Where the hell is he? "Lachlan Burrows, I'm starting to get worried now, I've been trying to reach you for days. Please call me back or I'll start jumping to conclusions that something is wrong. Please be ok, Will misses you and I miss you, please call me back as soon as you get this." Where could he possibly be? Oh Goddess please keep my husband safe. My phone alarm starts ringing. Fuck it's one o'clock I have to pick up Will from school. Gods this is a day from hell, I'm worried about Lachlan and on top of that Lena has decided not to show up to work today, she better have a good excuse, same with Eric. I walk out of my office and call out to Emma. "Emma, I'm leaving to pick Will from school. I won't be coming back to the office. I'll work at home today. So you can close up early." "Ok, that's fine Kate, I'll take care of things here."

—Lachlan— Immediately I left Iannis clan, I got in my car and started driving back to New York as fast as I could. It was a five hour drive so I really needed to step on it. I needed to relay this new information to Killian so that we could plot our next move and also to inform him about the council of alphas meeting. Then there's Lena. I needed to have a conversation with her about what happened on the night Killian rejected her and she lost her baby. I know it will be a painful memory to bring up, I mean she still hasn't even told Killian about it. But there might be no need if my suspicions are correct and Luna is their child. But I can't be sure until I talk to her. I'm three hours into my journey when I realize that in my attempt to find out who's behind the making of the drugs that I haven't called my wife. Fuck she's probably worried and definitely pissed. I reach over to the passenger seat and grab my phone. I turn it on but it does

—Lena— The next day before we leave for Adriana's friend's cabin, I head into the office early in the morning to get some documents and leave instructions for my staff. I really don't know when we'll be back, we'll have to work remotely from the cabin. It's a good thing Killian got somebody to put up a signal jammer at the cabin so nobody can track us. I get to the office and Emma is already there waiting for me. "Oh, Emma, you're a lifesaver. Thank you so much for coming in so early." She smiles. "It's no problem Lena, I'll do anything to help." "Ok, let's go to my office and talk." We both walk into my office and take a seat. "So you're going to take on three of my cases, the rest I should be back before we have to go to court. Kate doesn't have any pending cases in court so the rest she'll meet with them over Skype. And another thing while we're gone you're in charge." I tell her. She looks at me in shock. "Are you serious Lena?"

—Killian— The warm breeze filters through the car as we open the windows, enjoying the drive down the Long Island Expressway. Lena's display of toys leaves me absolutely fucking speechless. When she said she has a car, I expected a little bright colored girly piece of plastic with fluffy dice hanging from the rear-view mirror. But no, parked in front of me is a Maserati, the exact model I was trying to get my hands on a year ago but was told it was no longer available. Not that I needed another car for my garage, but I wanted this one. And to add to that, I’m still trying to register what she said. “This weekend, you and me. Nothing’s off-limits.” Bringing her lips to mine, I kiss her as softly as I can, holding back my desperation of wanting more. I don’t want Lena to think sex is the only thing on my mind. Your dick will argue that point in a heartbeat. For a Saturday night, the traffic is flowing with not too many cars on t
