Lahat ng Kabanata ng Shifted Fate: The Alpha Begs Me Back: Kabanata 121 - Kabanata 130

ANDREA’S POVI don’t know if he learnt his lesson or because of Gina’s presence, but Caleb was perfectly professional the following day.We were touring the Langley Pharmaceutical Plant to ascertain its suitability for the antidote production. Caleb hadn’t been exaggerating when he said he had a state-of-the-art facility.Caleb had sent a car to pick us up, and because I didn’t trust our rental after it broke down on the way from the airport, I’d obliged. The car had taken us to the Langley Pharmaceutical Plant, where Caleb had met us at nine a.m. sharp.He’d shown no signs of being affected by last night’s events, and I did the same, greeting him as politely and professionally as he’d greeted me.He introduced us to the head scientist, Dr. Gunmein—who I was surprised to see was an Omega—and the four of us began the tour. First, we were taken on a brief safety protocol lecture by Dr. Gunmein and made to put on basic Personal Protective Equipment.Afterwards, we were taken to the contr

ANDREA’S POV“You had me worried, you know,” I murmured against Kade’s skin. “My phone fell and broke, so I called Zayne to talk to you, but he said you’d disappeared.”His chest rose and fell underneath me as he sighed. “I heard Caleb talking about fireworks. I lost my mind thinking about him with you, so I had to come.”I lifted my head to look at him. “You know absolutely nothing happened Caleb and me, right?”Kade raised a brow. “So he didn’t flirt? The fireworks weren’t a ploy to get into your pants?”I shifted, folding my arms on his chest. I rested my chin on the back of my hands and looked at him through my lashes. “Does that matter? What matters is that I shut that shit down.”His grip around my waist tightened as he exhaled. “I just…I hate him so much.”I frowned. “Why? You hate a lot of people, Kade, but this one feels different…personal.”He shrugged and averted his gaze, fixing it on the painting on the wall behind me.I raised a brow. “You’re not going to tell me?”He sh

ANDREA’S POVFor all the lines he’d crossed and all his off-putting behavior, Caleb Langley seemed to be a good Alpha.The manic epidemic had come on suddenly and heavily, but he’d managed it spectacularly.As we toured the hospital, Caleb explained that it had three branches. When the epidemic started, he made arrangements for all the patients in the Beverly Hills branch to be moved to the other branches so this one could be a dedicated quarantine zone to manage the afflicted wolves until there was a cure.We couldn’t actually see the sick wolves due to the strict quarantine protocols, so Caleb just showed us the rest of the facility.The most interesting part of the tour was when he took us to the other wing of the hospital, where the families of the patients were staying.“Most of the sick wolves are adults and have dependents, so we moved them here where we provide for them pending the release of their parents or guardians,” he explained as we walked through the hallway.Soft laug

KADE’S POVThe woman blinked up at me, her familiar green eyes wide. “I—huh?”I heard a groan as the man struggled to push himself off the floor. Without sparing him a glance, my leg shot out and connected with his jaw. He crashed back to the floor, out cold.She diverted her gaze to him and sighed. “Thank you,” she gushed, turning back to me. “He asked to buy me a drink and wouldn’t leave when I said no.”I frowned at the sound of her voice. This woman looked like Clara, but she…wasn’t.Clara’s voice was soft, slightly husky, not high-pitched.I blinked, clearing away the fog of alcohol. They had the same fiery red hair, dark green eyes, cute button nose, and pouty lips, but she wasn’t Clara.“You’re not Clara,” I said out loud because I needed to hear the affirmation.She nodded slowly. “My name is Chloe.”I swore softly, taking a step back. This entire day had been so centered on the topic of Clara that I was seeing her in strangers’ faces.“Sorry,” I murmured, turning away.“Wait!

CALEB’S POV“What is it with you and renting out entire spaces?” Andrea asked the following night as she crossed her legs, leaning against the plush leather couch in the empty club.I shrugged. “I like my privacy.”She rolled her eyes in response, and I wondered if that was how they rolled in bed. If I had one regret during Andrea’s trip to LA, it was that I hadn’t gotten a chance to fuck her.Even though I knew she and Kade were on the outs, I knew she would never in a million years let me fuck her.Especially not the way I desperately wanted to—something told me Andrea Carter was not the submissive type.“Well, let’s get down to business, shall we?” she said.I chuckled. “Always down to business with you.”She shrugged. “It is what we’re here for, isn’t it?” She pulled out the contract from a thick brown envelope she had brought with her.She looked around the quiet club I’d rented out for the night. “Although, I don’t know why you decided this was where you wanted to do it.”I smir
