CHAPTER FORTY-ONE

CATHERINE'S POV

I got to my room and changed into fresh clothes after a bath. Burke confessed love for me was something very frequent; I liked it and hated the fact that Liked it.

“Who is there?" I asked, after hearing a loud sound at my door.

“It's Susan, ma," Susan said, and I hurried to get the door.

I opened the door only to see Susan holding a bouquet with a note inside; she was smiling widely at me, making me confused.

“Are you going to tell me who gave you these? Or you will just stand there and smile at me?" I asked, giving room for Susan to enter my room.

“These aren't mine mam," She said, chuckling at my thoughts.

Susan placed the bouquet on my medical table and sat on the chair opposite it without saying anything.

“Then who is it for?" I asked, even though I knew the answer. The bouquet was mine; probably, it was sent from Chicago by my children and Jaxon or from Burke. The thought of Burke sending me flowers made me feel butterflies in my

Jack was taken to the torture room, according to my order; although I ordered them not to torture him, there was a fishy play, and I needed to know it. I got to my room and took a cool shower to clear my head before changing into my daily wear of a back shirt and black pants. When I was done dressing I headed to the torture room to see my best friend. When I got there, there was a line of people waiting to see their loved ones, but I didn't have that much time to join the line. I walked to one of the guards, who bowed to me immediately before everyone else bowed after realizing that I was the Alpha of the pack. “Where is Jack? I demand his presence now," I ordered one of the guards who was in charge of guarding the torture room. The guard gave me a slight bow before going to fetch Jack; I entered the waiting room and sat

After a few minutes, my vision gradually became clear; my head hurt so bad that it seemed like I was punched in the head, and my hair was filled with grass sticking out. “Ouch," I grimaced in pain, after noticing my hands were tied to work; the grip of the rope on my hand was painful and would certainly leave a bruise or even bruises. “What the fuck is going on?" I asked myself, checking around for Burke, but he was not there. “Did Burke attempt to kidnap me? Was he angry that I was going back to Chicago?” were the questions repeatedly playing in my head, when the door opened immediately and a lady with a familiar feature walked in. She was wearing a leather shirt and pants, and her face was covered. She had dirty brown hair, but I was certain she

    CHAPTER FORTY-FOURBURKE'S POV It was my father's burial already; we stood at the cemetery, ready to concentrate his body so that he would rest in peace. There was a rule in my pack: if a body isn't concentrated after death, the body would be restless and would roam around looking for a living vessel to concentrate the body. It was only defaulters of the law we gave that fate to; we believed it was worse than death. I wasn't on good terms with my father before he died, but he doesn't deserve that fate. “Where is Ava and Harley?" I asked Susan in a whisper as I stood in front of my father's body. “I don't know, sir, they have been going to different places lately; I don't know where they always go," She replied, and immediately I suspected Harley for Catherine's disappearance. My mind hadn't been at peace since the previous day; I was worried sick about her. We ordered a night search for her, but we couldn't get a hold of her whereabouts. “Does Ava follow Harley to where

I asked in a whisper, and she opened her eyes a little; a weak smile came across her lips. “She isn't alone, Burke; she is working with someone," She said weakly as I removed the mask I had on. “Shhh," I said, putting a finger to get lips, she was too weak to talk. “Hold in there for me, I'll have you have of her but first I need to get rid of Harley," I said, and she smiled in return, a weak smile. My heart broke seeing Catherine like that. Harley had stabbed her in her stomach, and the cut was deep like Harley had done it numberless times. “Take good care of yourself, and please promise me you will be fine," I said, still holding Catherine tightly to my chest. “I will be fine Burke, just don't let Harley escape," She said weakly, barely in a whisper. And I nodded my head in response. “Promise me Harley wo

I looked at Ava, and my anger increased; Ava denied me in the presence of everyone; now all fingers are pointing at me for Ethan's death; the only luck I had was that I was with Burke and Catherine at that time. I was taken to the torture room and was getting prepared to be tortured when one of the guards raised me angrily. “You have a visitor," He said and didn't wait for me to respond before handcuffing me. “If I get out of here, I'll make you take your tongues out for talking to me rudely, and then your hands would be next," I threatened, but the guard was frightened by my threat; rather, he ordered me to walk, which I complied to immediately. “I pray it is not Burke I get go see," I said to myself as we headed to the waiting room; I didn't want to see triumph in his eyes; the only joy I had was that I took someon

I wondered how long I had blacked out and tried to remember what brought me to Burke's bed again. “Mam, you are alright," I heard Susan's voice and turned to myself. I saw her Holding a tray of fruits, and I gave her a weak smile.“What happened"? I asked her; my voice sounded weak and husky, and I could barely recognize I was the one talking. “You were almost killed by Harley," She said, and I remembered the event that happened and how Burke came to my rescue. “Did they find her accomplice? That lady hurt me a lot?" I asked and Susan shook her head in response.“Harley said she was alone, and the lady you saw worked for her," Susan said, and I knew that was a lie. The lady worked with Harley, not for Harley; I remembered when Harley wanted to fire at me, and the lady stopped h

I was already in good health, it had been three days since I got that letter from my kids, Burke had sent his men to make sure my kids were alright, and I was surprised about Burke's devotion to the well-being of my kids, I was sure he had a hint that the kids might be his. It was noon, and Burke and I had a meeting; we wanted to discuss our mate bond because we weren't going to get married. Burke broke my heart years ago and I was still holding to that memory, not willing to let it go. “Your bath is ready," Susan said before leaving my room.

Burke's men went to check how my kids were doing, but he came back with good news, saying that they were alright, at least that was what Jaxon told them, but my mother's instinct was telling me something was not right. “You know I'll miss you," Susan said as she hugged me so tightly that I almost forgot how to breathe.“I'm not dying, Susan, but I might die if you keep on hugging me like that," I said, and she released me from her tight hug. Her eyes were teary.“Don't cry, I might come back one of these days to see you," I said, and she looked at me weirdly, like I was lying.“No, I'm serious," I assured her, and she resumed hugging me again. I never want to come back to this pack again, but Susan, I will; she has been of great help to me. We were done packing my Luggage. Susan t
