Chapter 42 An Unexpected Plea
Lira’s POV:
I glanced at the phone number and snapped, “Kael, how’d you even get my number?”

Then it clicked right away. As the Lycan King, getting my number was probably a piece of cake for him.
Kael’s voice, warm and smiling, came through the phone. “I told you, didn’t I? If I’m gonna keep you in my sight, I have to get your number one way or another.”
I stared at my phone screen, raised an eyebrow in irritation, and said coldly, “Fine, you got me.”
Kael’s tone softened, all fond. “Lira, did you get the clothes? You like them?”
I frowned as I watched more clothes get carried into the closet and asked, “Why’d you buy me so many clothes, anyway?”
“I want you thinking about me every single second,” he said, a little cocky in his voice.
I was so annoyed. Even ough I knew he couldn’t see me, I rolled my eyes at the air and snapped, “Kael, didn’t you promise to give me time to think?”
Kael spoke gently. “I didn’t forget. But that doesn’t mean I can’t get you gifts. I said I’d give you time–no pressure, I promise.”

My mom and dad were rare fated mates, but my dad still cheated on her.
Love was probably fragile from the start. Besides, there was my real identity and so many secrets between Kael and me…

Finished
I just wanted to keep myself busy–busy enough that Kael couldn’t mess with my head anymore…
One afternoon, right after school, I walked up to the gate. A lady and a strong high–level werewolf guy hurried straight over to me.
Victoria smelled him and knew he was a Gamma–which meant he had some clout.
