Macey POV
Leaving Everly and Valen, I escaped to the roof, slipping through the doors and up the stairwell.I couldn’t afford to be overheard as I made the call to Carter.I was furious.
It was bad enough I had to bargain with him for Ava.
"You fucking prick! join telegram for latest update " I screamed at him the moment he answered.
"Well, hello to you too," He purrs.
"You think I can’t feel your infidelity, you asshole? Yet you expect me to run off into the sunset with you! " I snarled through the phone.
"I was teaching one of my men a lesson.The whore means nothing.And don’t pretend you haven’t got up to mischief today, love.I know you visited your internet boyfriend," he says, and I chew my lip.
Iscrub a hand down my face, staring at the night sky.
"Macey, are you there? " He asks
"Yes, I’m still here."
"Good.So have you thought about what I said? Have you gotten all your ducks in a row and are ready to leave with me? "
"How do I know you will stick to your end of the deal? I don’t trust you,"
"I gave Micah back, didn’t I? Don’t doubt my love now.But for ensuring purposes, we can leave her at the borders before we head to the cabin."
"A cabin? I am supposed to leave my daughter, my life behind for a cabin? " I chuckle.
"No, you can bring Taylor," he says.
Yeah, definitely not! I would never allow her near this monster.
Yet he would be if I left her behind.
"No.Not until I know you stick to your word.I am leaving Taylor here.I want to ensure you’re safe first."
"I would never harm your daughter, Macey.Why do you think I was punishing one of my men? He wanted to have your daughter killed.I stopped it and made him watch as his whore of a mate sucked my dick.Vile woman! " he says.
"Where is Ava? " I ask, ignoring his words.
"Beside me, safe and sound.And she will remain that way, as long as you abide by the plans," Carter tells me.
"And no harm will come to anyone here? " I asked him "None, you have my word.I just want you,"
I chew my lip, leaning on the wall looking over at the city.
"Fine, we have a deal.Send me the details," I tell him before hanging up on him.
I didn’t want to talk to him more than I needed to.I sigh heavily; I could do this! Yet I just hoped the band didn’t come in the way when it was time to kill him.
And he would die for what he had done! However, turning around, I was about to head back inside when I spotted John sitting in one of the fold-up chairs.
"Interesting conversation, you just had Macey," John says, drawing back on his cigarette.
"Yes, indeed, it was.So I assume you have a plan and reason for keeping this from my son?”
"And my daughter? "
John adds as Jalen comes to stand by John.
How I was stupid enough to not realize I was being followed and that John was up here the entire time was beyond me.I let my anger get the better of me and became solely focused on Carter’s infidelity that I wasn’t paying attention to my surroundings.
"So you lied to Everly and me earlier, though I knew it was a lie.You don’t get periods after a hysterectomy," Kalen says.
I admit I panicked when put on the spot.
Yet it wasn’t actually a lie.I still get cramps.
"Technically, I still get the occasional cycle, and monthly cramps, though they are more of a dull ache."
"So you do only have a partial hysterectomy? " He asks, and I nod.
"Yes, I still have ovaries.But the way Doc explained it besides, eventually going into early menopause, is that my body will still have a form of a cycle, though the body absorbs any egg. "
"But you still lied? "
"Do you think I want to? How would Zoe feel knowing the man responsible for letting what happened to her is my mate? Carter needs to die! And they won’t risk my life by killing my mate, so I have no choice."
Kalen and John look at each other.
