I didn't have so many questions I would say fuck the sea and tons Him

"What i going on, Dezien?" asks Adam, taking a whiff of the air around me while taking a seat next to the bed. His nose scrunches up and I know right away he can probably smell the vomit on me some. After all, I'd been sick only a few moments before. "Emily said there was an emergency. Are you feeling unwel

"You smell just be him," lacone, my y suddenly burning with tears. The haunt of Dom nie's arma is still beach in my mind. "Why did I never notice it before?"

His eyes wide

Ihis. You smell like your son."

How would you know that? Unless" He finches, falling back against the seat. "you're pregnant."

I grimace Fuck, I know it

Surppsingly enough, his normally somber face lights with joy and the deep dimpled in he gives me is a definitely Domonic smile Yes Yes you are. And the fact phat you can smell as well as you can, tells me it's a boy." He chuckles. A grandson. Im going to have a grandson"

I'm pregnant with a wolf cub? In my uterus? Crazy as it might sound, the thou doesn't upset me, I glance down at my flat stomach and sigh, my hand closing over it protectively. This is nuts."

He laughs jovially. "No dear. A wolf shifter doesn't usually have their first shift until after puberty. So rest assured, what you are carrying at this moment is human int form. Then his smile falters and be clears his throat. "If you are pregnant, which I'm ninety-nine percent certain, you are- does that mean, you ll be heading back?"

I sneer at him, jolting spright. "Hell no. Letting out a slow, trembling breath, I cross my arms over myself in an attempt to hold myself together against the sudden aching of my heart. I do miss Dumonic and I will tell him about the baby. But - not yet."

Henoch, clapping his hands together happily. "Good"

I quirk an eyebrow. "Not what I was expecting you to say."

He shrugs. "Well, I haven't seen my son in five years. He says he hates me. He thinks I weak. But I still love him, and I want him to have his family, I only wish bed join us here. He is the rightful Alpha. He needs to take his place among us before one of the other young wolves challenges for leadership and he loses his birthright." Can that happen?" I ask, a strange sense of alarm coursing through me.

"It could." He frowns, his eyes settling somewhere behind me. "Gabriel has been a bit more trouble than I would have liked."

"Gabriel? Really?"

He nods, "Oh yes. And don't think I haven't noticed all the attention he's been showering you with."

I shrug. "Thee him. He's handsome and he's nice to me."

"You're marked," Adam scolds playfully.

"And alone," I scold hack. Then, shaking my head, I add, "but nothing will come of it specially not now that I might be pregnant." Chewing on my lip, I turn toward the window and the fast approaching dark of the mountain sky. "Maybe its finally time I give Bart a call." I think thats a wonderful idea. His father misses him. Argon is actually the only member of the Elder Council that still speaks to his son. Perhaps if you tell Bartlett

I shake my head. "I doubt it." Then, turning away from the window I admit, "And I'm not so certain that I'm ready to ser Dominic"

den reaches out, pitting my hand before going it a fatherly squeeze. "You should tell him sooner than liter. Give him the opportunity to truly realize what he's missing out on. You alone may be the key to his homecoming" With a sigh, he sits forward and I intake another greedy inhale of his pine cinn goodness. "Domorie süd kanat forgiven me for Irving Port Orchard after the fire. But one day he'll have to realize - it was just too painful for me to go on there. The love of my Ide wan dead. I uw nothing good that could come from our staying in that cursed town. Clamping his eyes shut for a moment, he shakes himself as if chasing some old

he whispers." In a way, I'm touched that he and the rest of the boys are determined to find the killer. But, at the same time, I know his mother wouldn't him living in the shadow of her death" He frowns. "She would want him with his mate. Leading her with his mate. Living a full life. The life he was meant to have. Especially now that

"Wait!" I snap as I notice my siding His sent is settling my stomach! What the ? Come and sit on the bed," I say, closing my eyes as I drop back

I don't think that would be appropriate. He laughs, but I hear the scrape of the chair legs on the oalwood floor. "But I will sit a bit closer."

shoot open and glare. More out of itation than anger. He's right. Dumondes deserve to know about his baby-if there a one-but not today. "I don't want to," I say. 72 least not yet. It won't change anything that hes alady done to me. I still hate him."

"I understand," he replies. Then I'll go and get a p

I shake my head, "You're not going anywhere. Sit your ass down. Send Emily. She smells like a fucking greenhouse."

DOMONIC

message. Whats up?" Koda asks the moment he walks into my house to find me staring at the wall, deep in thought..

I gaze at him and I wonder. Is he the one who sent Draven to my father? Or was it Barier? Maybe, it was both of them. Either way, it doesn't matter. Now, at least i know where she is and I dont have to worry as much. At the same time, knowing that I can see her if I want to has induced the quivering pulpitations of my already trembling heart.

"What if I told you, I know where they are. What would you say?"

His eyes widen and his jaw clenches. "Where are they?"

The look in his eyes. The relief, the barely contained excitement. All of it says that he not the one who went them there-That he didn't know, I sigh, burying my face in my hands for a long moment. The one place I swore never to go."

d" Koda stops. "What the fuck do you mean? Canada?"

I nod, throwing The empty bottle of scotch I was holding across the living room to shatter against the wall. "I think it was Bartlett. He sent them there," I grow "And I dont know whether to thank him or kill him.""

I Koda shakes his head, his face turning red with anger. All those unmuted wolves. Fuck

Inyone

Right. That part had occurred to me. Probably because Draven is marked and her sont alone would have told my father who she belonged to. I don't think would be dumb enough to touch her, but I don't know that for certain. At the same time, my father may be an asshole, but it would be a cold day in hell beloer he

another man touch a marked female. Expecially, my marked female.

"Fuck!" Roda repeats, leaping from his seat to stalk toward the bat. He takes a drink my best tequila straight from the bottle, and because I'm feeling strangely charitable at the moment, I let it slide. Where's Margo?" He hisses

I chuckle. Sent her packing an hour ago, lames had to fucking drag her out."

Koda nods, taking another drink, despite that this time, I glare. "So what are we going to do? even know that I, 1

"Love her?" 1 supply.

He growls, "want her."

I grin, tossing my feet up on the ottoman and smiling sadistically at his pain. "Wimt her? Really?"

"Fuck you, Dom," he chirps with a grin. Dropping down in the seat text to me, he groans. These rules..." he trails off, letting the sentence hang with a shrug of his shoulders. "Fack! And we swore we'd never step foot in that town" "Yeah," I reply. "I know"

"At the very least," he says. "I want to see her."

I nod standing up and jingling my keys. Then I hope you're off duty. Because I think it's time we took a drive:
