Sold To The Alphas I Hate novel Chapter 336

Chapter 336: Inviting A Wolf

Kael’s POV

Once Raven was calm, I told him, "No one is going to punish you for talking. In fact, we all want to hear you. Maybe calling us mommy and daddy. But you can do it when you are ready, alright?"

He nodded.

"But if you want, you can call me daddy by using the mind link. I will hear you," I said.

I knew I was being greedy, but I couldn’t stop it. His voice when he called me daddy still rang in my ears.

Maybe it was punishment for not knowing his existence for the past five years, that I can’t hear my son.

We returned inside the house. Others must have been wondering about what we talked about, but none of them questioned.

Eira was waiting for Raven, but was still hesitant to reach him on her own unless there was something she needed to do with him.

"Go to mommy," I told Raven.

The little guy went to her, and she offered, "How about we read a story book?"

He nodded. Both of them were immersed in their world.

Standing on the side, I watched them. Regret feeling my mind once more. If I had not been ignorant six years back, so much more we would have done together with our child.

I felt a hand over my shoulder.

"You should rest. Your wounds are not to be taken lightly as well," I heard Roman. "Though you are strong, there is always a limit."

I hummed and headed to my study instead of going to my room. I had work to do there.

Eira’s POV

It’s a night Lucian was still unconscious, or I should say he was in a deep sleep. Roman had told me he might wake up tomorrow.

Kael hadn’t come to the room yet, while Raven had fallen asleep without him. He showed up only for dinner and returned to his study again, instructing Raven to be with me.

Now lying in the bed of the dimly lit room with Raven by my side, I was staring at the empty place on the other side. It felt as if something was missing and sleep wouldn’t come to me.

Maybe I was just used to seeing him on the bed whenever I slept here. I tried to sleep, but couldn’t help but turn and toss. I wanted to know what he was doing. Was he not well with all those dangerous wounds on his body? Was there any other threat again that he was busy taking care of? So many questions grappled my mind.

Today he fought for our son despite knowing the danger and that he could have died. I realized I didn’t hate him anymore. The bitterness inside me might show up once in a while as my soul was wounded, but when I am rational, I can’t come to hate him.

He brought our son back.

I sat up in bed. ’This won’t do. I need to know what he is up to. I am his mate. I have the right to know everything.’

I made sure Raven was in deep sleep. ’I’ll return quickly. He should be fine.’

Leaving the room, I reached the silent drawing room. Everyone seemed to have retired to their room.

But then I spotted Roman entering the home from the garden side. He seemed to be strolling outside and smoking, as I had a strong whiff of smoke the moment he entered the glass door.

He came to me. "Are you hungry?"

These days I ate so often that if I even wandered here and there, they would think I was hungry.

"No...I was just..." My gaze wandered everywhere to find Kael’s traces. Maybe he was outside strolling as well. No, he shouldn’t. He is hurt.

"Looking for Kael?" He completed my unsaid words.

Hesitant, I looked at him. "He hasn’t returned to the room yet, so I was worried...."

"He is in the study," he gestured in that direction. "You can go to him."

Shit! Roman is my mate as well, but once I mated with him, I hadn’t paid him any attention like his mate should.

I cleared my throat. "Aren’t you sleeping yet?"

"Didn’t feel like it," he answered, his gaze observing my face.

I wondered what more to say, but then heard him, "Don’t worry about Raven. I’ll be with him."

"Umm...I’ll be back soon," I told him.

He didn’t respond, but leaned closer and kissed me, his hands cupping my face. I responded back, letting this sweet sensation sink into my body. My mate showed his affection to me.

He stopped soon and whispered against my lips, "Take your time. You don’t have to hurry back."

’Why is he saying this? I am just going to check on Kael.’

"I..."

He didn’t hear when I knocked. Did I knock too softly, or he just couldn’t hear it... because he is in pain?

My hands clutched my dress on the sides. Should have I not come? Is it going to anger him to enter his study without his permission?

I am his mate. What can he do to me? I will tell the truth that I was just worried about him.

I swallowed hard as fear from that disastrous night of my life gripped me. I should return.

He is using his power.

What should I do?
