Hector POV
“You don’t need to throw me out Hector, I’ll go. But changing a pack doesn’t end a marriage or a contract… remember that Kaia.”
“As soon as I can, I’ll send my divorce papers over.”
It’s her parting shot as he closes his car door.
I know he has heard her, his hands are holding on to the steering wheel so tightly, that his knuckles are turning white.
Maybe it will serve a purpose to have warriors watching their borders for once. Even if just to remind them they don’t fucking rule the werewolf world.
Not anymore they don’t.
We both watch Alpha Damon’s car drive off, his eyes are watching us in his rear view mirror.
“Kaia, let me explain…” I call out to her, she’s already walking away from me. How has it come to this, that she will barely look me in the eyes.
“You can leave at any time, please?”
Her head turns back towards the direction she came from, the direction she was leaving in…but by a stroke of luck, a mere measure of hope I need to latch onto before it vanishes, she decides to listen to
I take her into the living room, the soft comfortable sofas offering a more informal, relaxed environment
than the authoritative decor of my office.
I needed her to feel at ease in my presence again.
Feeling uncomfortable in my own home, fuck, I try to think of how to start my explanation. My hands are clammy, as I feel beads of sweat forming on both sides of my forehead.
“I first knew Alofa was my mate a few days before Than turned 18. He challenged me instantly, claiming that he was her mate… that I was wrong, that I had an ulterior motive.”
“Alpha….” She needs to hear me out, she needs to hear this.
“Kaia, please let me give you my side of events.”
With a sigh, she sits back a bit more comfortably on the sofa, placing her hand out gesturing for me to
continue.
“Both Alora and Than were underage, they refused to believe my claim was true. Or Than did, Alora
wanted to know more..”
Kaia scoffs which frustrates me. She doesn’t know Alora, she has this image of a villain in her mind…but she’s anything but. She’s the sweetest girl and one that loves everybody.
I continue, now wasn’t the time to correct Kaia on all things Alora.

Chapter 0059
“Alora wanted to hear me out, but Than refused. Ordering her not to go anywhere near me, forbidding for me to spend anytime with her. He was worried, as he should have been, that the more time I spent with
her…the more she would feel the bond between us.
He had demanded that I wait until he turned 18…a little underage spoilt shit telling me what to do. I was 22 at the time, far more advanced in maturity than he…then…”
I’ve never spoken about that day, the dreadful discovery that fated early morning. How it was me that found her, and raised the alarm.
I can see her still now, eyes closed as if she were only sleeping. So peaceful.
Than tearing her from my arms, as Medea wailed behind me. The buzz I felt getting weaker and weaker the more her breathing struggled.
I didn’t even realise my hands had been trailing through my hair on repeat, until I looked up at Kaia. Her eyes looking a few inches above my eyes, at my now disheveled hair.
The next bit…this was difficult to communicate.
“It was me that found her. My heart broke the moment I realised she was more than asleep, especially when I found the empty wolfsbane vial. She had decided to take her own life, than choose between us.”
A gasp emits from Kaia’s mouth, her hand placing on her chest.
“I didn’t have my own pack, I couldn’t declare a war against him. I had nothing. I needed time…time to build an empire that could bring his down.”
“How did you know she would survive?”
“I hate him for it, but I’ve never doubted his love for her. His obsession is the only thing that has kept her alive. I wasn’t even allowed to see her, to say goodbye. Medea saw to that. My Head Doctor is the best in the shifter community, if I could get her here…”
“He might have been able to wake her up.”
“Yes.”
She remains quiet for a moment but I can tell she wants to ask me a question.
“How do I fit into all of this.”
