Chapter 79

Ciara's POV

“Thank you for coming today.” I said, looking down at my hands. I couldn't meet his eyes especially after that kiss we shared which I initiated.

It was obvious Bryan had feelings for me or else he wouldn't have kissed me back. He looked completely broken when I pulled back and apologized for the kiss and I felt rotten inside. I had to take the cowardly approach and blame my pregnancy hormones but even that excuse sounded lame.

“I'll always be here for you when you need me to be.” he said, his expression serious and I nodded.

“I know.” And maybe that was the problem. Maybe I was taking advantage of the fact that he'd always be here for me.

He was suddenly in front of me and I inhaled sharply. “Don't feel bad for the kiss Ciara. It's okay to be conflicted about your feelings but don't hold them back. Express them and don't be scared of falling because I'll catch you when you're ready.”

Afterwards, he took my hand in his and we walked to his car

With my good sense of hearing, I could hear him relay the message and I leaned back in my seat. I closed my eyes and found myself thinking about Ciara again. My last visit to her place had gone pretty badly and I had been a total jerk to her. How was I going to win her over if she hated me?Of course Bryan swooped in and took the opportunity to win her over even more. At this rate, there'd be nothing I can do to win her over. Bryan was really getting on my last nerve and if not because James had called me that last time, I was ready to dig it out with him. He was putting on such a show to win her over and it was disgusting to watch her falling over him. “Let me through,” Sophie's snarky tone reached my ears and I sighed heavily as my thoughts of Ciara were disrupted. With a frown, I rose up from my seat and walked towards the door wondering what she wa

    Chapter 81Ciara's POV I sprayed perfume on my clothes, targeting the spots I knew would make the scent pop and took a step back, admiring my appearance in the mirror. Even though I have always been labelled as weak and a useless Omega, there was one thing people couldn't deny and that was my beauty. But of course what was beauty when the bearer was a lowly Omega?I waved away these thought and admired myself in the mirror, rubbing my belly with a fond smile. My due date was just around the corner and I was getting more and more impatient as the days past to see my child. I couldn't wait to carry her or him and whisper my love in his or her ears. I didn't know the gender because I wanted to be surprised with the outcome after delivery. My relationship with Bryan was getting more and more serious as the days passed and I knew without a doubt that I could no longer feign ignorance about my feelings for him. There were still some doubts in my mind about whether we would work out. Or

    Chapter 82 Orion's POV “Orion,” Sophie called out to me after Ciara walked off but I ignored her, too stunned to speak. When I was told by James that Ciara was here earlier, I was overjoyed and my heart had soared as my mind raced with the possibilities of what her arrival could mean for us. But her words hadn't been part of what I had envisioned. Her rejection and dismissal of me had stung even worse than her leaving the house. After today, there was no doubt in my mind that she was really done with me. “Son, did she just say you went to her house? What were you doing there?” My mother asked, walking up to me. “How could you still seek her out when she has obviously moved on and doesn't care about you?” Her words added to my pain and I glared at her as I shoved them out of the way. I made my way into the house without a word, my eyes stormy and dark. James was waiting in my office when I got there but as soon as he saw my expression, he quickly excused himself and close

    Chapter 83 Ciara's POV Three months later… “She's really beautiful,” Bryan commented as he paced around the room with my daughter, Lacey in his arms. He had practically moved into our house after I gave birth to Lacey and he was such a doting father to her that I had no regrets choosing him. We had started a relationship about two months ago after I gave birth to Lacey and it's been three months of bliss and happiness. Bryan is such an attentive and intentional man, the kind that many shewolfs in the pack would be dying to have and luckily he was all mine. I flushed and cleared my throat, looking to see Bryan already staring at me. He had a knowing smile on his face and i felt my cheeks grow hot and turn pink. “What are you thinking about?” He asked as he walked up to me. I stretched out my hand to take Lacey but he ignored them and sat by the side of the bed, leaning towards me. “Well?” He asked, his eyebrows raised. I sighed and shook my head. “Nothing important.”

    Chapter 84 Bryan's POV Two days… It had been two whole days since I let the cat out of the bag about the mate bond and it had been radio silence since then. I haven't had time myself to check up on her anyway so I couldn't really blame her. The affairs of the pack had been pretty tasking over the last couple of days and we had been getting news of a series of killings in the neighboring packs. I sighed and looked around the room at all the powerful men sitting here. This meeting had been organized to discuss plans and ways we could protect our pack members from being victims of these series of attacks. We had been talking and arguing back and forth for a while and we still hadn't reached a conclusion. There were no leads and no one knew who could be behind it either. The pack members were agitated and rightfully so because the killings were strange and unprecedented. “The bite marks and loss of memory of the incident are the popular traits of those who have suffered the

    Chapter 85 Ciara's POV I paced in front of the room waiting for an update on my daughter. Lacey had suddenly developed a fever this morning and I got really scared. As I paced back and forth, my mind kept reeling with different thoughts, different possibilities. Since I had no wolf, could my daughter have been affected? And then there was the issue with Bryan and I being mates, what did that mean? Since Lacey was Orion's daughter, an Alpha's flesh and blood, she should be protected, right? “Ciara,” I heard and turned, freezing on the spot. “What are you doing here?” “Orion,” I whispered, shocked and yet not that surprised to see him after all this was his pack. He pointed at my belly with a frown. “Did you…?” I raised an eyebrow. “Did I what?” Just then the hospital room opened and the doctor walked out carrying my daughter in her hands. I forgot all about Orion and ran to her, lifting Lacey into my arms. “Hey baby, are you okay?” I asked even though I knew

Schooling my expression, I shook my head. “Go on,” Ryan shot me a curious look and I shook my head before turning to Delta Storm. “I think we need to make training compulsory for both males and females. Let's give everyone a fighting chance against whatever is hunting and killing people in their numbers.” I paused and looked around waiting for any interruptions. When there was none, I continued. “Yes the men are stationed at the border and even in strategic places around the pack but it isn't enough. I think everyone deserves

He promised he'd come back to me and instructed me to look after Lacey and make sure she didn't miss him too much. It's been three days and there's no sign of him or Ryan.

We searched everywhere but couldn't find anyone or anything.” The last batch of the search party we sent returned with the same dissatisfying news. I hung my head and closed my eyes. We've been stuck in the woods for days without food and water trying to hunt down the creatures responsible for the recent killings. “I can't believe we've been unable to find anything,” one of the men grumbled as he sank tor he ground. Soon, murmuring began amongst the other men expressing their disapproval and dissatisfaction with the situation. I listened wordlessly unsure of how to comfort them when I was also feeling down and depressed. How could we have found nothing in these last few days? It was disheartening and very shameful. “Alpha, I think you should return back home now. Luna Ciara must be beside herself with worry. Ther has been no news sent back to the pack since we left.” Ryan said respectfully pulling me out of my thoughts. At the
