Chapter 147

She had also been thinking. Thinking about what his silence meant and it bothered her. Bothered her deeply.

“We’ll strengthen our security. Keep watch all night. Make another call.”

Lyle nodded.

“Okay. Fair enough.”

“What did you find?”

Gabriel asked and the men shook their heads. They were humans, but the ones who could be trusted. They knew enough about the werewolf world and what

it entailed.

They were the scouts he had sent and they all came back with great news.

“Wolves littered the woods. It was impossible to give an estimate of how many they were… but there was a cottage on the top of a hill.”

One of the men said and Gabriel nodded.

“Did they suspect anything?”

The human shook his head.

“They didn’t. There’s a hiking path in those woods, so humans regularly frequent the area, it provided the perfect cover. We didn’t even have to take any of

our weapons.”

‘Unfortunately we couldn’t get close enough…”

Gabriel shook his head. A smile on his weary face. Hope, hope at long last.

“You’ve done well. We’ll take it from here. Thank you.”

He said as he led them out of his office, Draco walked in shortly after with Kate behind him.

‘Kate… what are you doing here?”

He asked in bewilderment and she sulked.

‘Well.. you wouldn’t pick any of my calls or even talk to me… I had to come see how you were.”

‘I’m fine… I was busy..”

Kate nodded as she sat on the sofa and relaxed. Gabriel glanced at Draco who shrugged.

What was he to do?! He had met her in the elevator and she had pestered him with questions all the way up to Gabriel’s office.

Oh I understand. Any news?’

She asked and Gabriel shook his head.

*None yet.”

Kate sighed.

*Remember… if you need help… all you need to do is ask. My father’s wolves can be very useful.”

“I appreciate your help Kate.”

‘Why are you here?”

He asked as he approached her.

Kate sighed.

“Isn’t it obvious? I’m worried about you.”

‘With everything that has happened, I can’t imagine how you would be feeling.”

Gabriel sighed.

“You know… despite being an alpha. I have never felt so weak and helpless in my entire life.”

‘Oh Gabriel…

Kate sighed, her pretty manicured fingers on her mouth.

‘I cannot begin to imagine what it feels like.”

What did it feel like? Losing his mate?! It felt like hell.

Brutal hell.

Like a quiet raging ache in his heart that wouldn’t go away.

Like a piece of his heart had been taking a chunk out of and it. He missed her so much it physically hurt him to think about it.

‘You can’t.”

“Well… is there anything I can help with?”

She asked again and Gabriel shook his head.

‘I appreciate your concern Kate but I’d very much like if you stay out of this.”

‘Are.. are you sure?!”

Kate stuttered and Gabriel nodded.

“I am.”

Kate stood up awkwardly.

“Okay… I just came to see how you’re doing… I’ll take my leave now.”

She said as she sauntered out of the office.

Gabriel glanced at Draco.
