Randall always locked me in our room for 6 days, three days before my heat started, and for the first three days of my heat, my heat usually lasted 5 days. After that, he would leave me alone until the pull in his own body got too much and he would come back into the room, do enough to get himself to release and then leave again with the excuse of Alpha work.

He asked. "Same as wolf pregnancy, right? Two months?" "Yes, 70 days," he confirmed. The thought that I could be a mother in 70 days was terrifying. I didn't regret mating with Leo, it was the best night of my life, but maybe that would change with a positive pregnancy test.

There are three hundred and fifty-one days more to go. It had been two weeks since Lydia's unfortunate imprisonment called marriage to Jayden White, the devil himself.

But the good news is we have up more than two months to think of something” Eleanor said, trying to give hope to me. Well, that's a lost cause as I have lost all hope. “It's not good news Auntie” I said with a small smile that probably look like a sad one. “Judging from the time I was bitten till now, I'm not sure if I have more than two weeks”

He snorted. “How about you reserve your energy, make your stay here short by speaking. Who sent you?” “By making my stay here short, you meant… killing me?” he laughed, a mocking one. “No, killing you is not only too short, but easy. What about I keep you here for thirty two days…?” “You could keep me here for a year and swear with every single cell in my body that you won't get anything.” “..and remove your teeth each day. One tooth per day and we have thirty two teeth off in thirty two days. Did it seem short?”

The only words that rang in my head were the four months left before Carla turned twenty. Taking my phone off the nightstand, I checked the calendar. For the exact time left for me. Four months was just my wild guess. Seconds of scrolling through the calendar gave me what I was searching for. The exact time left. Three months and a few weeks. 118 days left. If I was being precise. Returning my phone to the nightstand, I shut my eyes for a little sleep. But the time left rang in my ears. 118 days. I had just 118 days to win my mate.

“Until June 2nd.” “49 days,” I said. Hand in his. 72 BPM. “Until we do what?” “Until we prove it,” Adrian said. Turned. Faced me. Dark. But I could see him.

“I am sure. It’s them I’m not fully confident in.” She turned to study her cousin. “I would trust them, T.
