Caiden eventually spoke when he parked the car in front of the building. "Get ready to follow my instructions," he said icily. "Find out where Louis's pack is and go there to try to find my children."Observing Caiden's clenched jaw, he said, "Of course, Alpha, and what about Miss Kamara?" Caiden gave him an odd look at that point. An acerbic and demanding gaze."Kamara is dead to me," he said as he opened the door of his car and prepared to drive away. "Never mention her name near me again."This time, Caiden left him hanging and just stepped out of the car and into the building, leaving a somber aura behind.As Nate watched Caiden hurry into the building, his thoughts drifted. Unrelenting and impetuous, this was undoubtedly the alpha he had heard about his entire life; nevertheless, it was not the alpha he had grown to know and respect. In Caiden, Kamara's absence had destroyed all light, leaving only darkness. Then he thought back to the children's smiles. It seemed as though their
Jessie covered his mouth as he stated quietly, "I came here to see you." She grabbed Enzo by the arm and pulled him to the end of the hallway, saying, "You must be out of your mind. Is it not apparent that Caiden is present?""And so what? Why should I be afraid of him?" His voice brimming with contempt for the alpha. "I am free to visit the pack at any time. I haven't yet been kicked out of this place." He said."Enzo, are you really attempting to sabotage my moment?" She couldn't take her eyes off the door where Caiden was while she whispered more. "It will not please the alpha to have you here. We would have met somewhere else if you had given me a call."With a lowered voice, he said, "I couldn't deliver this news over the phone, Jessie," not intending to stop Jessie from looking down the corridor. "I visited your house, but it was empty. Simply put, I didn't think you would be so brazen to approach Caiden once more.""Tell me what it is, please." Trying to move things along fast
Caiden was surprised by the question, but he tried not to show it by smiling, as though he thought it was ridiculous. "She is my children's mother. How would I allowed Enzo to hurt her?"But Jessie was fully aware of the reality. It was evident in Caiden's stunning eyes. She was aware that Kamara remained Caiden's love. She was aware that throughout their quest for the quads, something had transpired between them. She was aware of it, but she couldn't bear to think about it. It felt as though she was being eaten alive by poison.She said, looking into his eyes but seeing nothing wrong, "I want to believe you, I promise, but when you hurried back to the pack in such a hurry to talk to me, for a moment, I thought it you were about to end everything between us."Caiden felt his throat tighten and swallow forcefully. He turned his back on her, wondering if he really needed to tell Jessie the truth after all. "You're just trying to change the subject to avoid becoming angry with your broth
As he left them, he nodded in silence. Louis was well aware of the challenges that awaited him in winning those youngsters over. He kept a distance from the four of them, unsure of his willingness to put on the act of being a good friend to four kids. Louis detested children. Sterling was the one who was most averse to this abrupt change in their lives, as Kamara was aware of. She reasoned that he would eventually grow accustomed to it. She said with enthusiasm, "How do you like the pack?" but the boys didn't seem to be getting much better. "Mom, why are we here?" Stopping in mid-step and glancing at her, Sterling questioned. "Simply put, Sterling, there was nowhere else we could go. In addition, Louis is my friend, and he's working really hard to make us happy." "He does not even know my name, Mom," he angrily remarked. "Sterling, you four are identical quadruplets. Given how little he knows about us, how could he know you?" She gave him a wide-eyed look as she took in the b
"Alpha, please don't exacerbate the situation." Upon meeting Nate's gaze, Caiden realized that he was the one who understood what he was doing the best. "I'm confident Enzo will stop bothering you."Enzo gave Nate a sneer. He just looked at Enzo and nodded. "So, Caiden selected you as his beta to take my place?" Knowing that he would suddenly be the target of Enzo's taunts, Nate fixed his gaze on him. "You're a learned man who controls the alpha's rage. I'm still baffled by his choice of you. There's nothing so special about you.""Because I trusts him," Caiden answered, stepping aside from Enzo. "You know what my response is, Enzo? Jessie told me about your goals. You'll never again be the beta of this pack."Enzo laughed once more, seemingly unaffected by what Caiden was saying. "I really regret your decision because I was the only one who could lead you to Kamara and your four children," he said, turning to look around him in an emotional moment.Jessie pivoted to confront him. S
He looked at his brothers, who were sound asleep already. He cocked his head to gaze at their sleeping quarters. It was lovely and spacious, with a large window looking out over a huge lawn. If Caiden hadn't been there, all the opulence would have been for naught. He could have been happy with the comfort Louis was giving them.He regretted not being able to tell his brothers the truth as he glanced at them once again. Again, he was leaving them behind even though he had promised to safeguard them at all times. He couldn't stay there though.Even though Noah, Lucas, and Kyler missed Caiden, Sterling had already come to the realization that they were content with their new lives and didn't feel motivated to act in the way Sterling wanted to get away from them. He got out of bed and went in search of something to occupy his time so he wouldn't go to sleep. He thought about his plans over and over again. In the same way, he was aware that Kamara never left her phone alone at night. The
"Why did you act in that way, Sterling?" Kamara sobbed because, despite knowing the answer, she genuinely wanted to understand Sterling.The youngster yelled at her, "You're keeping me from seeing my dad. Mom, I'll never be able to accept it."Sterling then hurried to his room and shut himself in for the remainder of the morning. Kamara fell into the living room couch and covered her head with her hands as she struggled to accept what was happening."We really need to allow the boy some time to get used to his new life," Louis said, sitting next to her and giving her a back rub. "I'm so sorry about all this, Kamara."It wasn't going to be that simple, though. Her choice to keep her distance from Caiden was having an impact on how she interacted with her own kids as well. She considered telling the quads the truth about Caiden and tried to get Sterling to stay there without his father."He'll try to run away again," she complained as she hurried to stand up. "Since I know Sterling well
"Are you serious?" Though Sterling remained skeptical, he would make every effort to take advantage of this opportunity to speak with Caiden. He held out his phone to the boy and said, "Of course, I'm serious, but there are some conditions. I let you use my phone, but first you can't tell your mother about it. Secondly, you are unable to disclose your location to your father." Sterling was aware that it was unreal. Calling Caiden would be useless if he couldn't tell him where he was. Sterling's true desire was to leave that place. Louis went on, "I know you don't want to be here, Sterling, but I can get Kamara to allow you see your dad, but you'll have to trust me, even if it's a little bit."Sterling's eyes regained their glitter as his thinking became more open. He quickly reached for the phone, grinning at Louis while he called Caiden's number."I agree to your terms."When he held the phone up to his ear, the sound of his father's voice gave him immense happiness.***********Nat
