《His Defiant Little Breeder》全部章節：第 191 章 - 第 200 章

I rushed out of the shower and was about to wear a dress I'd barely paid attention to when I realised there was still dirt on my arm. My wolf didn't even get the chance to wash off either. "Maya," Sofie muttered gently, "we're home. Cade is home with his people. Nothing will happen to him." "But.. Darren.. he was one of us, remember?" "There are no more traitors; nobody will be stupid enough to betray us after the hell we let loose on this same battlefield. Relax, soak in a bath, and I can't believe I'm saying this, but I won't mind a bath as well." I chuckled; my wolf would rather chew stone than allow water to touch her, but right now, with not just the grime of travelling for so long, but the feeling of exhaustion, water was the only way to ground us. So I nodded, dropped the dress back in the closet and headed back into the bathroom. That's when I realised that there'd been hot water by the side of the bath all this time. Shaking my head at my own foolishness, I prepared t

I'd stayed there for hours, only pausing to feed Cade and then get back to working. Aida got tired of trying to convince me to head in for the night and finally left, like everyone else. Gertrude had already gone to bed with the baby as well. I stayed there, going over everything they'd helped me with, making some corrections and then starting with the next heap. Somewhere past midnight, my eyes finally began to feel droopy. I put the pen down and faced the truth glaring me in the eye. I was waiting for him, and distracting myself with these numbers. But I was beginning to make mistakes and I knew that would mean ruining the Pack that I'm trying to hold together for his return. But what if he never does? I thought about going after him but I have my baby to think about now. Why is the moon goddess forcing me to choose, again? When does it end? I packed up everything and went to drop it in his office. My eyes went over everything, his scent had faded completely from here bu

Thankfully, nobody followed me around.My wolf hasn't been out in a long time and I've not had a single moment to breathe ever since I got back.Just straight into work, toiling and trying to keep things smooth sailing. Yet, more keeps piling on my plate.I ran to the edge of the walls of the territory and I walked back to the front before turning back.That took about two hours, I wasn't in a hurry to get back to my problems.But in my head, these issues followed me to the run.The thing is, being queen would be cool, especially to the Maya that loves reading fiction and watching other people do it with ease.But this Maya? The one that just got out of a war?This Maya is tired.Exhausted.Scared, terrified and can barely get some sleep without fear of the unknown.That's not queen behaviour.The queens in those stories also always have their Kings. The few who don't, it's their choice and they fight very hard to stand by that decision.But me?I'm in love with my King, I crave his p

"So, what's the next plan of action," I asked, mainly because I didn't want everyone looking to me for the answers.My brain wasn't functioning at full speed and I'd told them all my thoughts.I just needed someone to arrange it into something functional.Thankfully, there are other Alphas here.But it was Rex who spoke first."Since Alpha Killian can't go, I volunteer to go. Don't worry, my mate is fully on board."I looked at Aida and she gave me a small nod."When you guys get to Greyhound, you have to find out how they were all gathered," Killian said, "because a lot of them are now scattered in the wind again.""Vera was doing a lot of the heavy lifting," I told them, "but I'm sure if they hear of an opportunity to earn a living while working rather than wandering aimlessly in the forest or being forced to fight a war that might lead to their death, they'll genuinely come to us. I don't want to force anyone, nature is already doing that.""That's really smart," Killian nodded."T

When we got back inside, I quickly went to Margaret so I could get the herbs she'd prepared.She was given a small house close to the river where she spent her time in her garden, planting different herbs and basking in nature.When I knocked on her door, there was no response."Luna," I turned to see her coming back with a basket of fruits and leaves, "you came to see me?""Oh Maggie, you look so beautiful," I couldn't stop myself from saying.She had lost her wrinkles and she didn't look like the old woman I thought she was."Iron Claw has an energy to it that just.. heals the soul. I hope you are having a good day?""Yes and I hope it continues. Caden is back and I need those herbs.""Oh sure, come in."I followed her into the house and I smiled at how cosy it was.When I lived in my father's storage, I used to wish for something like this.Small shelves hewn to the wall, a small table for my knick-knacks from the market and a kitchen on the other side."So, you are going to have t
