Chapter 165
“Why are you calling?”
Sabine asked and Lori scoffed.
‘Why wouldn’t I?”

‘Not only did you send me on a wild goose chase with the ridiculous promise of me getting help from a woman who wants nothing to do with me, you also
had me followed.”
‘None of this is part of our fucking agreement! None at all!*
Lori shouted into the phone. The kind stranger who had lent her her phone looked at her weirdly and Lori murmured a string of apologies to the nice
woman.
There was a short pause before Sabine replied.
“You must understand… I’m merely trying to protect myself.”
“From what?”
Lori retorted.
“I thought you were winning.”
“Are you not?!”
She fired back and Sabine sighed.
‘I would be… but now your mate is after me and you know that doesn’t bode well for you. Or your son.”
Lori contemplated Sabine’s words, she wondered if she was truly capable of hurting her son to spite her.
“You wouldn’t hurt him. You wouldn’t dare.”
Lori warned and Sabine laughed.
“Try me.”
She answered in a serious tone.
Lori blinked back tears.
‘He’s just a baby.’
She whispered into the phone and Sabine laughed.
“My dear, I don’t care. He’s in my way and so are you. I wou
do anything to protect myself and my pack from my enemies.”

“So it’s up to you to decide if you want to save your son.”
Lori nodded, gulping hard.
“Okay.. what would you have me do…”
She asked.
‘Do what I’ve asked. Reject Gabriel as your mate. Maybe also try and get him off my back while you’re at it.”
“And how will I know my son is safe even after I do that?”
Sabine scoffed.
‘I’ll let you know when I’m sure I’m safe.”
“When you’re sure you’re safe?! That’s stupid!”
Lori retorted and Sabine shrugged.
“Those are my terms. If you don’t accept, forget you have a son.”
‘Not that you cared much about him in the first place.”
Sabine said as the line went dead.
Lori groaned. She handed the phone back to the woman and thanked her profusely.
Apart from the terrible headache that seemed to plague her, Lori had another dilemma. Her back ached like it was constantly slammed with a hammer. The pain started as a dull ache, right after leaving that dark alley way with the werewolf who was following her, then it slowly graduated into a menace.
She found at least three more werewolves. All of them apparently spying on her too. She didn’t know how they had managed to stay well hidden but she told them off, just like she told off the first werewolf in anger and they obliged her.
It was strange but she was beginning to believe and see that she had yet another power. One that allowed them to listen to her. She didn’t quite know how
it worked yet but is seemed to work when she was angry and made direct eye contact.
Despite the call with Sabine, Lori sought out Gabriel for reasons of her own. No one could help her but him.
She pondered on Sabine’s threat and wondered how Sabine had even discovered that Jack was alive. She had mourned Jack. She mourned him for weeks. She
didn’t even know what he looked like till Sabine showed her the family picture he took with the Fullers.
How could they hide that from her?!
She was his mother!
How could they hide her son from her?!
The pain hit her again and Lori bit back a groan.
