CHAPTER 111

KADEN’S P.O.VNadine still hadn’t woken up and I couldn’t help but wonder if there was something specific that was stopping her from doing so. I ordered Dr. Brown to take scans of her brain to make sure that everything was progressing properly and she assured me that it looked good from her end but Nadine just wasn’t responding to the medicine given to her. I trusted Dr. Brown with my life but there was something wrong and she hadn’t realized it yet. I tried to tell her that but she accused me of trying to tell her how to do her job.I had to leave the hospital so as not to lose my temper. She was still the head healer and if anything happened to her, then Nadine would be subjected to other doctors. I wanted her to have the best possible care. I sat on the curve at the back of the hospital and sighted a discarded pack of cigarettes. It had been a while since I smoked and for the first time in a long time, I felt the urge to do it.My skin itched and just as I was about to stand up to

CHAPTER 112

AMELIA’S P.O.VI wasn’t sure how Kaden managed to get into the house and the kitchen before I noticed his presence. When I heard his voice, I froze. I wasn’t sure why considering the fact that I wasn’t doing anything wrong. I knew that but some part of me urged me to keep it a secret.Ian had been gone for two weeks already and he was the only person excluding Serena who kept me company. I didn’t want Kaden to send him out again not just for my selfish reasons but also because he didn’t deserve to be tossed to and fro because of me. It wasn’t his fault that he was my trainer and it wasn’t his fault that we were friends.“I’ll call you back,” I said to Ian before quickly hanging up and turning to Kaden. “When did you get here?”“Don’t turn the question on me, Amelia,” he looked a little annoyed. “Who were you talking to on the phone and why did you quickly hang up? Was it a guy? Is it someone I know?”“I think you’re being ridiculous,” I said in an attempt to wave him off but he wasn’t

CHAPTER 113

AMELIA’S P.O.VWhen I woke up the next morning, Kaden wasn’t in bed and I hated the way disappointment swelled in my chest. Despite not wanting to, a part of me had believed his words last night and hoped that he would be next to me when I woke up. I tried to hide my frown as I made my way into the bathroom to freshen up for training. It was still very early, it wasn’t even five yet and he was already gone, so much for him wanting to make a change and be more present.I couldn’t help but snort as I changed into training wear. I was braiding my hair down in a fishtail when the door to the room opened and Kaden walked in. My mouth fell open and shock took over my features. His hair was damp and there was slight perspiration on his skin as if he were coming back from a run. He saw me on the vanity and registered the shock on my face with a sad smile.“Where are you going?” he nodded in the direction of my outfit and I shrugged.I couldn’t have answered even if I wanted to. I was still re

CHAPTER 114

AMELIA’S P.O.VAfter training, I waited for Kaden to pick me up but he never did. I didn’t carry my phone out because I never expected that I would run into this problem. I waited for thirty minutes after training, everyone had left and it was just Ian and I when I resigned myself to the fact that he wasn’t coming. I hated how disappointed I was because it meant that I had hope in the first place.“Would you like me to call someone for you?” Ian asked as he made his way over to me but I shook my head. “Would you like a ride instead?”“Yes please,” I hated that he had to offer but I was grateful that he did. He helped me into the side of the car and drove towards Kaden’s home in silence. It was shame that didn’t allow me to speak and I assumed that Ian was just staying silent for my sake.The radio was on and music played softly in the air filling the tense silence. I noticed that Ian was driving a lot slower than usual but made no move to point it out. I was happy with the sluggish pa

CHAPTER 115

KADEN’S P.O.VIt felt like torture waiting downstairs while she got ready upstairs knowing that she wanted me. It took all of my energy to stop me from climbing those steps and taking her the way we both wanted. As appealing as it sounded, I needed to do better for her. I needed to treat her right and it wasn’t going to happen if every single time we were together, we were going at it. She was intoxicating but I needed to learn how to discuss.I waited impatiently until I saw her coming down the stairs. Her hair was tied up into a messy ponytail with a few tendrils framing her cheeks. She was in skin tight jeans that hugged her curves like second skin and a top that looked so soft I was certain I could rip it with one tug. I saw her eyes scour the room and when she saw me, she let out a sigh of relief. It broke my heart knowing that I had gotten her to the point where she doubted my words. I knew it would take a while to get back to the point where she trusted me blindly but I was det

CHAPTER 116

AMELIA’S P.O.VAfter Aiden left, Kaden and I left the park as well. He had ruined the ambience that came with the date and we decided to call it a night. It was a beautiful day and I was more shocked that Kaden managed to stay off his phone. He didn’t once inch towards it to check his messages. I could have sworn that he would at some point try to get in touch with the hospital. It was like a fever dream and I wasn’t sure if I wanted to wake up from it or stay there forever.I was so stuffed from the picnic that dinner was out of the option for me. Instead, I decided to focus on some school work that I was running behind on while Kaden handled his usual pack work. We worked in silence in the room, me on the bed and him on the table. There was something calm and comfortable about it, at least until his phone rang. The loud blaring music cut through the air and cast a blanket of unease and trepidation. He glanced at the caller ID before turning to look at me.We both knew that his next

CHAPTER 117

AMELIA’S P.O.VTo say that I was the center of attention the entire day would have been an understatement. I was approached by at least four different people at different times of the day wanting to know what was going on between Kaden and I and the strange woman in the hospital. For the most part, I managed to ignore them but it was more exhausting than I realized. It was almost impossible for me to take two steps without being approached by someone. Serena did her best to stay by my side but there was a limit to what she could do.“How long until school is over?” she whispered as we hid between the shelves in the library. We briefly managed to escape the head of the school newspaper and were counting down the minutes until we would be able to leave school.“Ten,” I responded as I glanced at my phone. “It is only a matter of time. We can leave soon. Kaden said he would be here to pick me up. I could ask him to drop you off if you’d like.”She waved me off. “I’m going to see my parent

CHAPTER 118

AMELIA’S P.O.VHe dropped me off at the office but I didn’t stay there long. All it took was fifteen minutes of people staring at me with pitying glances for me to decide that I had enough. I wasn’t going to stand for it and I wasn’t going to endure it. They didn’t know what Kaden and I’s relationship was like, they didn’t get to judge me for it and I wasn’t going to sit around and pretend like they weren’t all whispering about us when they were.A part of me was pissed off at Kaden. It was his fault we were in this situation, it was his fault that they had something to talk about in the first place. I wanted to be angry, I wanted to be furious but I couldn’t bring myself to conjure up the emotion. I was too tired, too worn out, too fed up of everything. I just wanted to live a life where my every move wasn’t governed and watched by everyone but that was impossible considering the fact that I was mated to the Alpha.“I’m leaving,” I announced to Kaden’s secretary. She looked empatheti

CHAPTER 119

AMELIA’S P.O.VI agreed mainly because I had nothing else to do. Ian and I walked back to the coffee shop together and I stood anxiously to the side while he paid for my drink. He also got a steaming mug of coffee for himself and I couldn’t help but notice that he had put creamer and sugar which was unlike most of the men I knew.“So,” he began as we started walking down the road. “What are you doing here alone? I haven’t seen you in this part of town before. Were you looking for something?”“Not really, I just didn’t want to go home right now and I thought a walk would do me some good,” I shrugged trying to keep my response as vague as possible. I didn’t want to admit that Kaden had gone back to the hospital and I was alone. “What about you? Were you looking for something?”“Yes, actually, I wanted to get some more mats for training. I managed to get a few and I was heading to the woods for a run. If I recall correctly, I once asked you if you wanted to train your wolf with me.”I fl

CHAPTER 120

AMELIA’S P.O.VIan took me to a nice quaint restaurant that he swore had the best lamb chops that he had ever tasted in his life. I didn’t have the heart to tell him I didn’t like lamb and resigned to going with him. He seemed so excited and I didn’t have the heart to ruin that. I just sat silently in the car as he tried to explain everything I would love about the place.When he got there, I was surprised because I did like the place. It was small and had a homey feel to it. People were whispering and laughing between themselves. No one seemed to care who we were, there were no eyes following us or people whispering about us which was the norm whenever I went out with Kaden. As we were taken to our table, I couldn’t help but wonder why I didn’t go out with friends more.“You’re getting the lamb, right?” he asked and I gave him a sad smile.“I don’t like lamb,” I admitted finally and his eyes widened. “I’m sure I can just get something else.”“You should have said something,” he grabb
