his hand. “Well, now that you are back I can introduce Callie to pack members whilst Jace attends the meeting with Jude.” Mum gestures to Callie to follow her, removing her…knowing, as do I, things needed to be said between Jaxon and I. “He’s unavailable now.” Dad responds, keeping a watchful eye
~ Cleo ~ Josie keeps trying to call me and for the first time since forever, I’m not answering. I need time to think, time to put a plan in place. Jaxon knows, my attempts to persuade him that the baby is human may have worked on my parents, but he could sense the child was related to him.
I’m also conscious of not being off pack grounds long enough for my absence to be picked up on. The services that were half way between us seemed like the obvious option, however, I can’t shake the feeling of being followed. It’s me, I’m hormonal and paranoid. Needing my secret to remain a secret.
“I’ll leave you to it.” He stands up, pulling the chair out and tucking it back in under the table only for Maya to walk over, eyeing him with suspicion. “Take care.” He offers out, a nod as he departs. “You too.” I call out after him as he walks away, Maya pulling the chair out and sitting down.
Kaia POVMy own mate rejected me on our wedding night. As soon as I signed the marriage certificate and prepared to consummate our new life together...he rejected me.“I, Than Sable, Alpha of the Amber Desert Pack, reject you Kaia Glace as my Luna.” I remember his cruel cutting words as if they were
Kaia POVI couldn’t sleep, not with him next to me. He hasn’t moved, and I’m frozen as his arm lays across my waist, as if what had just happened was a happy thing for me. As if he were trying to keep me safe.My mind keeps going over and over what had just happened.Reliving every moment.He called
Kaia POVShe’s my double, identical to me. Her skin isn’t as olive toned as mine, she’s paler from having been away from the sunlight, from being stuck in this hospital bed...but there’s no doubt that she is my double.My mind can’t seem to process what my eyes are seeing.How was this even possible
Kaia POVI watch them walk away into the distance, my mind spinning at what I had just heard. Kidney donation?I never thought that Than’s purpose was to use my kidney to save Alora...This is ridiculous!So, from beginning to end I was a meaningless existence to him. He only thought of me as just

~ Jace ~ “Callie, I managed to get hold of your parents. I thnk they thought it was a scam at first. I’ve invited them over…” Mum walks into the sitting room where she places her mobile phone down on the coffee table, a hesitant smile forming upon her face. Callie’s parents had finally called back,
I’m angry at his words, a fire forming in the pit of my stomach at his threat. I know he will tell him, it’s only a matter of time. I need to make my own threat, to bide me some time. “If you tell him, I will leave. You will never see me again, nobody will. He has a mate, I won’t destroy them, I
I move away from him, heading upstairs into my bedroom, slamming the door shut to lock it. I just needed to be left alone. But he was fast following me up the stairs…his hand blocking the doorway, preventing me from closing it fully to apply the lock. “Get out.” I roar out, trying to force th
~ Cleo ~ “Oh yeah, then explain to me why you smell like my brother.” He snarls at me, his nose sniffing again at the crease of my neck. My body goes into panic mode, an instant threat nearby that needed to be avoided. Jaxon isn’t a threat but him finding out the truth is. “What? No I don’t.”
“So you knew Jace was back?” Dad’s voice sounds differently, it has a sterner tone to it. Something I wasn’t used to being on the receiving end of. “I…no, I didn’t see him.” “Oh good, I would have hoped you would have told us. Especially when we have been just as worried about his safety.” That
