His Distant Human Mate 84
As Lila sat in the warm bath, she knew that Veronica was using her. She was not dense enough to think that this other witch had brought her back to her home out of the goodness of her heart. However, Lila was tired of living in that cabin. She was no longer a little girl who thought of it as an adventure, but a grown woman who missed the luxuries of an actual home. Lila took her time and washed her hair thoroughly as it had been some time since she was able to wash in something other than a large bucket and wash cloth. As she took her bath, she also thought about the information that Veronica had given her. So, the human's son is actually a werewolf. Veronica already knew that would mean that Arden would have no issue giving the title to that little brat over her son. Her hands moved down to her belly once more. It had to be a son. There was no other option. Lila thought about Mason. As much as she despised the man, she knew that he would not allow a child of his to be tossed aside
His Distant Human Mate 85
Arden and Aurora stood in the Alpha office along with Rich and Roger. Arden had asked the previous Beta to join them as well. His father had decided to retire to a small house on the edge of the territory. It was not exactly a cabin, but it was close. Arden had tried numerous times to get Mason to return to the pack house. Mason has graciously declined the invitation. Arden wondered if his pride played a part in why he would not return. Lila had put such a hold on him and Mason thought that the entire pack thought of him as weak now. Arden was unsure if the rest of the pack felt this way, but he knew that it was not all of is father's fault for being deceived by Lila. Mason had been distraught with pain when Arden's mother, Charlotte, had died. Losing one’s mate was the worst thing in the world for a wolf. "Still nothing?" Arden asked Roger. Arden had asked Roger to request his father's presence at this meeting, however, by the shake of his head, Arden knew that even Roger was n
His Distant Human Mate 86
Lila had started to feel tired once more. The pregnancy made her look weak, and Lila despised looking weak. She walked back to the room that she was currently occupying. She closed the door behind her and turned the small lock that was on the knob. She turned to the center of her room. She wondered if Veronica would know that Lila teleported. She did not want to stay under Veronica's finger any longer or be a pawn in her game for vengeance. Lila had her own revenge to worry about. First thing was first. She needed to get to Mason and let him know of the pregnancy. She would have to take the chance of him growing angry and possibly killing her. Lila would have to teleport back here if in fact he did try to end both her and their child and then she would have no other option but to help Veronica with her plans. Lila took a deep breath. Veronica had been trying a locator spell to find Mason in her spell room, but by the looks of things, Veronica had been unsuccessful. Lila closed er
His Distant Human Mate 87
Lila looked up at Mason. He was a lot more powerful than when she had left him. He and his wolf must be one again. Lila looked down at her hands in her lap. "I am pregnant," she said quietly. She knew that Mason and his wolf had already sensed it. "Yes. I can see that. Why have you come here?" Mason asked. He grabbed his clothes and began to dress. "I have nowhere else to go and you are the child's father. You are the Alpha of the Northern Pack," Lila looked around the small cabin. "Well, were. It looks as though titles have already been transferred," Lila was trying to appear innocent when she was anything but. "The only thing saving you right now is my pup in your belly. I hope that you understand that," Mason growled. He walked over to his chair and sat down heavily. He ran one hand down his face. He could not believe this mess. Lila had stolen the chance for Arden and Aurora to have a child and here she was. Bearing one of Mason's. "I transferred the title as soon as I cou

"How, pray tell, do you plan on doing that? From what I hear, this witch is one of the most powerful out of her coven," Mason said. He sipped his coffee as he walked back into the living room. "I need to draw as much power as I can. Now, I can draw some from our child, but not too much. The only other source of power that I can draw from is Eli's curse. It is power from the witch herself," Lila finally said. Mason stopped the cup halfway to his mouth. "Excuse me?" he asked. "Yes, I know. It would mean that I have to get close to Aurora's son in order to draw from that power. Do not think I can lessen the curse though. That is not how it works," Lila said as Mason opened his mouth. He quickly closed it. "So, you break the binding spell and then what?" Mason asked. "You have to give something just as good to Arden and Aurora in return for freeing you," Mason knew that to even take it to his son it needed to be a fair trade. "I can take them to the witch," Lila said. Mason raise
His Distant Human Mate 89
Arden had just finished explaining everything to Aurora that Mason had brought to his attention Aurora sat on the corner of the bed. Arden stood next to her. He could feel her conflicting emotions as they passed over her. Arden was worried as Aurora had a stone-cold expression on her face but her emotions were anything but. "Please say something," Arden finally said. He could no longer take his mate's silence. "What is there to say?" Aurora asked. Arden took two steps towards her, but Aurora suddenly stood and walked over to the window. Their room overlooked the back of the pack house. Aurora could see Eli playing in the grass and Jack watching him nearby. Arden had stayed where he was. He knew that Aurora was the type of woman who needed space in order to think. She would come to him when she chose. "I am sorry that you and Eli are being put in this position," Arden finally said. He knew it was not his fault, but it did not mean that he was any less sorry. "Do you think that life

Lila could not hide the scared look that passed over her face. Shifting? How was that possible. She had gone this long without a wolf or even the feeling of a wolf. Lila's body contorted and a hot pain shot right up her back. She could not help the scream that pierced the night. Mason was confused. It had been some time since he helped someone shift for the first time. Mason instantly kicked in gear. He helped Lila out of the cabin and a few feet from the porch stairs. Lila screamed again and was brought to the ground by another pain. "Why?" she gasped as she tried to breathe through. Her hands went to her stomach. She feared that the stress of a shift would harm the child. "It will be fine," Mason said. "Women shift while pregnant all the time and the children are fine," Mason leaned down over Lila and gently rubbed her back. The movement was very intimate. Lila looked up at him, but the moment was ruined by another stabbing pain but this time in her side. It continued for what f
His Distant Human Mate 91
Meredith looked down in the basin of water. The pool was almost a looking glass of sorts. If a witch wished to see something from afar, they could use a looking pool. As if they were a fly on the wall. Meredith gazed down into the water and watched as Aurora and Arden sat with Eli at the kitchen island of the pack house. They were discussing Eli's day and the friends that he had played with at school. Meredith watched the interaction. The boy did not seem to have any of the curse yet. Meredith waved her hand over the pool and a new image became clear to her. Lila paced a bedroom of some kind. Meredith knew that it was not the same room that she had been occupying in the cabin. The woman must be in a new place, but where? As she watched longer, she saw Veronica walk through the bedroom door. She said something to Lila, but Meredith was not able to quite make it out. It was one of the issues with the looking pool, not everything was clear all the time. Meredith waved her hand once
