Chapter 42

lose the door as soon as they enter and remain hooked in my spot staring at them. The b*tch is greedily staring around like she just landed an heaven.

Chase on the other hand appears to be scared..

The fuck Chase, you promised not to bring her here‘ I snap in the mind link and his shoulders instantly tense.

I am sorry Ana, but I went to reject her but instead, she clings to me with apologies

I have a bad feeling about this. You have been my best friend for a long time Chase but if this b*tch tries anything stupid, I will not hold back‘ I cunter leaving them stranded in the living room. I am going to talk to Dad.

There is no way your mate will reject you for any reason and when she hears you moved to a royal pack she suddenly clings to you. Is he that desperate? Doesn’t he see she is using him to get close to Jace?

No matter what she is up to, she better not come near my son or she will regret making that mistake.

“Dad” I call peeking inside his office and he instantly lifts his head from his computer. He works a lot.

“Grandpa” Liam exclaims getting down from my hold and rushing to hair

“Hello, sweetheart.” Dad picks him up and sets him on his lap. I love this. This gives me hope that in case something happens to me my son will have someone to take care of him.

Locking the door, I walk behind his office chair and hug him.

You smell so good” I hum smelling his hair and he chuckles. Liam gives me that sore glance like he did when Jace carried me earlier.

Not again Liam, this is my father” Dad laughs evening out the little crease on my son’s forehead,

Is he acting Jealous?” Dad enquires pressing a k*ss on his forehead.

Yes, and I won’t let him take you away from me. Got that son?” I pinch his cheek and he giggles.

Do you think you work a look at the holes on tres Japtop

Tdon’t have a choice sweetheart to your maste dose muntening?

I left both with his dad minutes ago, I think he will be he

Good, because training starts torrow I am also traveling the day after tomorrow. My beta will be in charge 1 frown leaning forward to catch a glimpse of his eyes.

“Where are you going?” I ask feeling bad. I don’t want him to go Especially when Chase just brought trouble with him

“Canada sweetheart. I think I need to be there when we go looking for your mum. I can’t trust anyone with her as it is”

“It’s a good idea but what about us? We will miss you?

“Your Mate is here, his dad is here, and if you need anything you can simply call me. I also don’t think Leonardo will be coming anytime soon”

“I came to tell you something” I separate from Dad and pull a chair to sit

next to him

“Chase came back with his mate” I sigh and Dad frows at my

disappointment.

“That explains the unfamiliar scent around him. You don’t like it?”

“The thing is, she had rejected him because of mate and when she heard he moved here, she found him interesting again” Dad stares at me for a while and finally nods in understanding.

“Whatever happened to the magic behind finding your mate” He sighs leaning back in the hair. “I will send them away, I can’t have unnecessary drama in my house or let anyone hurt any of you under my watch”

“No Dad. Chase is our friend but in case sje tries something, I have your permission to ruin her right? Father smirks and ruffles Liam’s hair. “Of course, baby. You and Liam come first and I won’t let anyone touch you” I grin standing up to k*ss his cheek, Also, I want to see if he is man enough. I want to see if he will repeat the mistake he made earlier. It is a good test” Dad smiles and I pray Jace doesn’t fail.

There can only be a second change. Third chances don’t exist.

“Thank you Father. I will go bring you guys juice”

“Bring me coffee instead, He says and I walk out of the office,

Jace, Chase, and Lily are seated in the kitchen chatting away and

lusions She seems to be the one entertaining the boys while they die of Isuglues. I stare at her sbundant cleavage and cringe. What is the essence of dressing like that when you have a mate?

silently walk to the coffee machine and prepare Dad’s until I remember Alpha might need one too. So I make two cups and juice for Liam.

Can I have one, please? The b*tch says but I don’t turn to look at her. I am nu a damn servant and if I was, I would never serve her. She used to hate me because I was always around Jace. Though she hid it well with forced smiles

Then when we were mated, she made it obvious. She didn’t bother faking it anymore wonder why she is talking to me.

I grab two muffins and a chocolate for Liam and place all of them on the hay

“I will help you” Jace appears at my side and I slowly shake my head. “No need Jace, thank you” I gently smile at him but Jace can see through

I know he knows I am not okay.

“Hello again Dad, Mind having coffee?” He slightly smiles with a nod. He at least shaved and he is out of bed. This is progress. I pray he gets over. her and finds someone to take care of his heart. He has a long way to go.

Thank you, honey,” He says taking one coffee and a muffin. I will go make him some food after this.

Baby, wait” Jace holds my elbow as soon as I exit his dad’s room and I

un to look at him.“Are you mad at me?” he whispers running his hands. through my hair.

His eyes hold worry.” No. I am not

“Is it about Chase and Lily? I can have them leave if you wam” I remember Dad’s words that he is testing him and shake my head.

It’s okay Jace. I will just drop this off” I point to the tray and he nods. taking a step back.

“Okay, let’s prepare Liam’s room after you are done, okay? His stuff is on the way” I don’t get to answer that. Because someone else does.

“I will help too” Lily chimes in, with the widest smile I have ever seen. Was she hiding somewhere eavesdropping?
