Todos los capítulos de When My Mate Wore Obsidian, I Was Done With Him: Capítulo 1 - Capítulo 7

Because of Dora's cold-sickness, I had no choice but to bring her back to the pack early.By the time we arrived, her little face was flushed scarlet, and she was coughing violently against my chest.The moment we stepped inside the pack territory, Cassian took one look at her and his expression cracked with concern. Then his eyes turned on me — and the concern turned into blame."This is how you take care of our daughter?"He didn't wait for me to answer. He yanked her out of my arms and rushed her toward the pack healing center.I went home and put together a meal for her, something nourishing.But when I walked into the healing center, happy at the thought of seeing her, what I heard was my daughter complaining:"It's all Mommy's fault for giving me this awful body!""If she hadn't, I wouldn't have had to come back so soon!"Then she leaned closer to Cassian, voice bright with pride:"Daddy! These last few days in the North, I put scent-blocker in Mommy's water every day! Aren't I c

Cassian must have felt the change in me through the bond.He brought Dora straight home.The moment Dora saw me, she threw herself at me, rubbing her cheek against mine like she'd done a thousand times before.Cassian hung back. Awkward. He worked a strained smile onto his face."Eva, I shouldn't have spoken to you like that earlier.""Dora getting sick — that's on me too.""I was the one who agreed to let her go north in the first place..."I gave a small nod, then pried Dora off me and set her down. My face stayed cold.She looked up at me, hurt. I had never been cold with her, not once.This was the daughter I had bled for. Who I had nearly died to bring into the world. I had spoiled her every day of her life."Eva? What's wrong?""Are you not feeling well?"I lifted a hand and cut him off."I'm fine.""You, on the other hand, are looking very well taken care of. A lot healthier than when I left."A small flinch ran through him.I didn't give him room to recover. I kept going."I re

I drew a long breath and looked across the table at every single one of them."As you can see, Cassian has betrayed me.""And the second scent on that fabric — I think you all know exactly whose it is."Cold sweat broke out on the foreheads of my Elders.A few of them cut their eyes away. Guilty. So at least some of them had known about Cassian and Kayla all along.And not a single one of them had told me.This was the pack I had built. The pack I had bled for. And every last one of them had been complicit.The fury raised my aura by another notch in the room."How long?"The chamber went so quiet it stopped feeling real.The only sound was my fingers tapping the table.When no one answered, I stood and walked a slow circle around the room.Partly to bleed off the rage. Partly to see who was avoiding my eyes."Speak now, and I'll let you keep your place in this pack.""If I find out later that you knew and stayed silent — don't expect mercy."Cassian was the Alpha on paper. But everyon

I shoved her off me.She hit the floor on her backside.She blinked up at me. Stunned.She had never expected me — me, of all people, the mother who had spoiled her her whole life — to push her like that.She forgot to even start crying. She just sat there on the floor, staring.Cassian was the first to react.He stepped forward and grabbed my hand."Eva, what is it? Did something happen today?"I didn't answer. I just looked at him. Calmly.Kayla scooped Dora up, then turned on me, scolding."Eva! How could you treat a child like that!""Whatever your problem is, you don't take it out on a child! That is not how a mother behaves!""No wonder she doesn't want to be around you!"Kayla's words were enough to make Cassian's brow tighten."Eva, Kayla's right!""No matter what's going on with you, you do not lay hands on our daughter!""This postpartum depression of yours has gotten out of control!""You are not going into the pack offices for a while. Kayla will handle everything."Listeni
