I asked. “You can’t.” The bluntness stole my breath. “Because Nicholas would kill me?” “Yes.” “And because you won’t let me go?” Ryder didn’t look away. “Also yes.” Fear curled in my chest followed by something warmer, steadier. “I didn’t choose this,” I whispered. “Neither did I,” he said quietly. “But here you are. And here you stay.” He turned to leave, then paused at the door. “Rest today,” he added. “Tomorrow, we correct a few misconceptions.”

Jessica finished her explanation and looked at Raya who was looking at her in awe. "Mam. You rest assured. I'm not interested in him. So from now on don't pick on me. I'm an innocent girl here who has come to earn money to run her living." Jessica said with a cute face and left from there. "If that's the case. I'll leave you alone. But if I find something fishy then I'll not spare you." Raya said in a dangerous tone looking at the door from where Jessie just left. "Hey, beautiful," Ryan beamed at her desk with his beautiful smile.

Ryder lifted Jessi up and put her on his shoulders. "You heard the pup. She's the guard, and I dare anyone to mess with her." He said as Jessi giggled. After having such a serious meeting, it was nice to end it with humor. _______________ Cressida prepared half of her soldiers.

Chapter 182 Author's POV. Jessica openly declares a feast, making everyone set their mind on having a full house. Lucian couldn't go against what Jessica had said openly and order his men to close the gate, as no one would be leaving until after the feast. Just as everyone entered the house, Raphael stood up and greeted them as they stared at him. The house became silent with no one saying anything, only for Ryder to break off the silence. “Where have you been?” Ryder asked as he walked up to Raphael, who stood quietly staring at him.

He brought his thumb up and wiped a stray tear from my eye. “Uh, I guess now’s not a good time to ask what Hades wanted with you?” We hear Drake speak, but Ryder didn’t turn his head to look towards him. He leaned his forehead against mine as he replied to Drake’s question. “He’s letting us go.” “What!” I shout. I unclenched my thighs from around Ryder’s waist and he laughs at my response. “Well damn, you two deserve it Ryder, congrats man. Tell your mom I said Hi.”

Ryder was watching the window with that old-soul expression he'd had since he was eighteen months old. "Mama," Ryder said. "Yeah, bug." "Are we going to see him again?" She pulled out of the parking lot. "Yeah," she said. "We are." Ryder nodded slowly. Like his wolf had already told him, and he was just waiting for her to confirm it. "Good," he said. --- *Nova told herself this was about safety.* *She believed this completely — all the way up until Jax opened his penthouse door and her wolf, for the first time in three years, went quiet and still and finally, terrifyingly,* at peace.
