KADEN’S P.O.VI knew it was wrong to put her on the spot like that but I needed to know whether she still felt for the boy. I watched her every move carefully while trying to maintain the façade of sadness and guilt because the truth was that I didn’t care what happened to Blake or anyone else from that pack as they didn’t directly influence Amelia.In fact, when Caleb told me last night that Blake had mated with Brittany, I was filled with relief. The relief was so palpable on my face that Caleb had to remind me of his past with Amelia and how she might feel about it. It put me in a bad mood which was why I didn’t go to see her all day. I kept trying to remind myself that there was no way she could still feel anything for him after being with me but the more I thought about it, the more I realized that it was possible.When she walked into my office, I was filled with so much frustration that I lashed out at her but I quickly realized it wasn’t the right way to go about the situation
AMELIA’S P.O.VAnger burned through me the entire way home and it wasn’t until I got to bed that it was more disappointment than anger. I had hoped we had gotten past Blake but it seemed like it bothered Kaden more than he cared to admit. I understood that Blake was a major part of my life but I couldn’t believe that he thought I would still want him after everything that had happened between us.I still cared for Blake, it was obvious considering what we had been through but it was not in the same way that I did for Kaden. What I felt for Kaden could not be explained into words. It was mind blowing and all consuming. The only reason I stayed quiet when he mentioned Blake was because a part of me was relieved and I was thinking about the bond between us and whether it would be broken since he had mated with Brittany. I was having a silent conversation with my wolf but he took it as something else.I couldn’t stand to be around anyone because I knew my mood was volatile so I spent the
KADEN’S P.O.VI had the best date planned for Amelia but I couldn’t get to it because of all the meetings I was being roped into. I loved being Alpha but sometimes it could be annoying and this was one of those times. The elders were fretting about a potential rogue attack due to my actions and I had to meet with the guards and patrol team in order to beef up security in the case that the rogues chose to attack.Last night, there was an attack on one of our neighboring packs and Caleb is concerned that it was a retaliation for our actions and we might be next. I wasn’t as concerned as he was because I was certain that they wouldn’t attack and even if they did, we had the manpower and the weapons to wipe them out. The pack they attacked was much smaller than ours and easier to overpower and still- they lost.I was finishing up my meeting with the patrol border when Caleb ran up to me. He looked panicked and I knew that I would want to hear whatever he had to say so I dismissed the bord
AMELIA’S P.O.VSometimes I wondered how I got lucky with someone like Kaden. He was patient with me even when I couldn’t speak at all and just offered his silent solidarity. When I woke up the next morning, it was to breakfast in bed and a soft kiss on my lips. I was so overwhelmed that I didn’t realize when I blurted out that I wanted to move in with him. He was taken back and asked me twice if I was sure that was what I wanted and I nodded.I wanted to be with Kaden, there was no need to delay the inevitable. I loved being around him and I loved falling asleep and waking up in his arms. As soon as I assured him that it was my decision, he immediately called for a moving van and we were on our way to Clara’s house. I was a bit anxious about talking to Pamela and Devin because they had made themselves like my parents and it felt weird moving out.It was Pamela who opened the door and as soon as she saw me, she pulled me into her arms for a warm hug. I almost broke down in tears at tha
AMELIA’S P.O.VKaden was the only person who looked casual in his button up shirt and black slacks. He sat at the edge of the table between his mother and I and I was grateful at first until I realized that it left me sitting directly opposite her. She barely looked at me but whenever she did, it was with a frown or an upturned nose. Kaden didn’t seem to notice it because she was telling him all about her day and he was patiently listening.I started to feel like I was eavesdropping on their conversation but Kaden suddenly intertwined our fingers. He shot me a warm smile to assure me that I wasn’t forgotten and I quickly returned it. His mother cleared her throat making both of us turn towards her and I could see her sporting a frown on my face. I couldn’t help but feel like I did something wrong and I pulled my hand out of his grip. He frowned especially when I placed my hand in my lap when suddenly, he placed his hand on my thigh.“Perhaps we should start eating,” Kaden said in an a
AMELIA’S P.O.VI didn’t have classes the next morning and Kaden told me I didn’t have to go into work if I didn’t feel like it. I waited until he had left the house before I got into the car and drove off to Clara’s house. I didn’t tell her that I was coming so I muttered a small prayer hoping that she would be there when I arrived. I didn’t see her car in the driveway so I was already freaking out but I still made my way over to the door and knocked.Pamela was the one who opened it and she looked surprised to see me. “I knew you would miss us but I didn’t expect you back this soon,” she teased as she pulled me into a hug. “I was just about to step out but I can wait behind if you want.”“That won’t be necessary,” I assured her but she still looked a little skeptical. “I just wanted to see Clara, is she here?”She shook her head. “She just stepped out but she should be back in a few minutes. You can wait for her if you life but I would have to leave you here alone, is that okay?” I n
KADEN’S P.O.VI was shocked by Amelia’s interest in the rogues and it completely threw me off balance. I had not planned to tell her so much about it but she was too adamant and I ended up spilling much more than I planned. Whenever I tried to give her a half truth, she would call me out and remind me of our deal. It was shocking how well she knew me that she could tell when I was lying to her.I reluctantly ended up telling her how we were not the only pack being attacked by the rogues and how I hunted them down and killed everyone but I didn’t tell her why I did it. The last thing I wanted was to think about that boy and her. By the time I was done telling her everything, she just sat there staring at me in silence. I hated her silence because somewhere along the line, she had learned to hide her emotions and I couldn’t tell what she was thinking.“Amelia,” I called out and she raised a brow. “I would prefer words.”“I don’t know what to say. It is weird for rogues to just attack. W
AMELIA’S P.O.VI could barely sleep all night. I knew that I had calmed Kaden for the moment but I was worried that if this situation came up again, I wouldn’t be able to calm him down. His jealousy was justified, I would have been too if he was in my shoes. I needed to prove to him that I wanted only him and I needed to do it fast. One of the first things I learned about Alpha’s was that they were very possessive, I was shocked that he was showing this much restraint anyway.By the time morning rolled around, I was exhausted and worn out but determined to finish what I had started. Kaden wanted to drop me off at school but I told him not to. He didn’t seem too happy about it but I reminded him of his promise to trust me and that was the only thing that had him calming down. He kissed me softly before leaving and I waited until he had disappeared before I left the house.I had no plans on going to school. There were more important things at stake so I went to Clara’s house. I texted h
