I don’t push it. Whatever it is, she’ll tell me when she’s ready. I watch as she disappears.
“Take my SUV and ring me when you get to your destination. The keys are with the valet,’ I say through the mind-link as Atticus steps forward as if about to walk after her, when I block his path. “Let your valet know she’s taking my SUV and to give her the keys.”

“Move out of my way.
“I think you and I need to fucking talk,”
I say quietly, ignoring his command.
“Yeah, we do.”
He frowns, staring down at me again. “What do you think-“
I cock a brow. “Not about my sex life, but what happened between you and Adriana for her to be in such a rush to get out of here?”
I’m observing him intently and, as predicted, he looks a little uneasy.
‘Nothing happened. I just…”
He trails off as he looks me dead in the eye before he turns and looks at his guards. “You are not to attack our guests.”
He growls at them before he stormsinside.
I frown, watching him intently as I take the steps two at a time and follow him back in.
“Atticus.”
“I have let the valet know. This conversation is over, Zade. For Valerie’s sake, drop it,”
hesays quietly.
I don’t plan to, but it’s obvious he won’t be giving me any answers. Shaking my head, I return to the room we’re staying in, the smell of sex and Valerie instantly bringing my irritation down, but she’s not on the bed as I commanded her to be.
Frowning, I wonder if she heard what happened and got up, but then I spot her to the side, standing by the chest of drawers, staring down at her phone. Instantly I wonder what’s wrong, shutting the door.
“What’s wrong?”
I ask walking over to her, wrapping my arms around her naked body from behind and pulling her close.
She shakes her head and I look at her phone screen, where she has her calendar pulled up. Did she miss something important?
“Baby girl? What is it?”
I urge before she comes out of her reverie.
“Oh, sorry… I just… with everything that happened, I realised I’m not on birth control and…”
My stomach sinks, realising what she might be implying.
“Are you late?”
1 ask emotionlessly, really hoping she isn’t.
She tugs free as she turns and faces me. “I’ll find out tomorrow or the day after…”
I swallow hard. “It’s not a problem. We’ll deal with it if you are…. There’s a way to get rid of it. I don’t want kids.”
I say, not looking her in the eye. 7
Her breath hitches, her heart racing, but I’m unable to face her. “Get rid of it? I will never get rid of it,”
she whispers, sounding shocked.
I now look up into her eyes. “I wasn’t born to be a father. That’s not who I am… no kid needs that. Trust me. You don’t want kids with me.’
She opens her mouth and I know she’s about to argue with me, but I can’t. I just can’t fucking do this.
Turning, I head to the door again.
“Zade!”
I don’t reply, knowing she’ll never understand because she just sees the good in me. But there really isn’t much. I’m a killer and I always will be. That’s not the kind of father a kid needs. My demons will always be there. 2
“Zade!”
I shut the door, and she doesn’t follow since she’s naked.
‘I’ll be back. I just need to clear my head.’ I say through the mind-link. I owe her that much, but right now I don’t want to be around her in case I say something that I can’t fucking takeback. 2stare un
Stepping out into the night once more, I at the sky.
If she’s pregnant…
I don’t know what you’re playing at, Selene… but we both know that there’s something inside of me that’s broken. Something that makes me unworthy of taking on the responsibility of a child. Ever. 7
SEBASTIAN.
Life really does change a lot, but one thing I learned was to always communicate, never jump to conclusions or take life-changing decisions on your own. It cost me precious years with Zaia, and it caused her so much heartache. But that was a lesson I learned too late when I hadalmost lost her.
I had lost her, had to stay away from her to give her the time she needed, without knowing if I’d ever get her back.
No matter how much I do, I’ll never be able to make it up to her. Until this day, sometimes I can see things getting a lot for her. But instead of saying she’s having a bad day and needs a break, she will carry on, so used to dealing with everything by herself. But I’ve learned to pick up those signs, so I can intervene and give her that break without her having to tell me.
That’s something I saw over dinner with Valerie and Zade. I’ll never admit it, but he’s observant of what she wants and needs and does things in a way she doesn’t even realise and without suffocating her and being overbearing.
I always wondered why Jai chose her. I didn’t think they were compatible, but love works in a way unknown to man. I don’t think Zade and Valerie are compatible if you look at their upbringing and backgrounds, but somehow, they just… go.
And it hurts to see she’s far happier now than she ever was with Jai. They clashed a lot, there was a lot of bickering, and he didn’t know how to handle Valerie’s temper.
I had heard the commotion earlier when one of Zade’s pack members left but didn’t bother going down. However when I decided to go ask Atticus what happened I hadn’t found the fool, but I did end up hearing the conversation between Valerie and Zade.
One I shouldn’t have, but my hearing has always been better than most. It wasn’t like it was intentional. I keep my presence masked as Zade exits the room. He pauses, and I wonder if he picked up my presence. I wait until I hear his quiet footsteps recede, frowning when I don’t hear anything else.
Where has he gone?
I step out from behind the pillar, wondering what way he went. I glance towards the steps just in time to see his shadow disappear down the hall. I follow quietly, seeing the back door shut.
I frown for a moment. Should I even bother? Frowning, I push away the doubt, knowing what both Zaia and Jai would want even if I dislike him for everything he has done. My wolf stirs, making my brows kit together tighter as I pull open the door and look around.
He’s gotten away!
I run my fingers through my hair when I hear the flick of a cigarette lighter, and I turn to see Zade sitting on the ground at the side of the building. He lights his cigarette before taking a drag on it.
“You’ve gotten rusty,”
he remarks, not looking at me.
“Yeah, I don’t think I have, I sensed you,”
I refute, although I hadn’t sensed him. I am not planning on admitting to that.
“What do you want? Shouldn’t you be in bed with your woman by now?”
“I could say the same to you, yet you’re out here.”
I shoot back.
His frown deepens as he continues to smoke his cigarette. “What I do is none of your concern, “he answers quietly, but even I notice the edge from his normal attitude is missing. Walking over to him, I nod my head towards his cigarette.
“Got a spare?”
Not answering, he takes the box out and tosses it at me. I catch it, taking a cigarette out before he holds the lighter up, flicks it on, and lights it. I nod. “Thanks.”
We fall silent as I take a seat on the steps a few feet away from him.
“So, leaving her after she shares something like that? Not exactly smart,”
I remark, taking a drag on the cigarette.
“Eavesdropping? Not exactly smart either,”
he counters.
Dick.
“Look, I’m not here to say do this or that, but what I will say is don’t fuck up things because of your own insecurities. She doesn’t deserve that.”
