Chapter 14 

Cara’s POV 

I’ll do anything to protest my unborn baby. Even if that means pretending to be Alaric’s secret office mistress again

At least Alaric’s been much nicer to me since 1agreed several days ago to go back to how things used to be

When I see him, that is. He’s been so busy with work that we haven’t spent that much time together at the apartment like we 

used to 

He’s been taking me out. We went back to The Hideout, and tried a few other restaurants, too. It’s beenalmost nice. I might even say it’s been peaceful

Until today 

Alaric came back to the apartment and finally took a look around. I cleared out all of my stuff a while ago, planning to leave DarkWood and find a new pack 

That’s still the plan, but Alaric’s renewed interest in keeping me as a mistress has been a bit of a setback

Where are all of your things?!He was furious

You said I could leave the pack after the wedding was over. I was just preparingI’m trying to get him to see reason, but he’s far too upset for that

You can leave when I says you can leave!!He was the picture of an Alpha male, refusing to accept any ideas except his own. “I’m not done with you yet!” 

Yes. Alpha King.” I say submissively, trying a new tactic. Logic clearly isn’t working. I just need him to calm down

If he thinks he has the upper hand for now, then so be it

Alaric eyes me, like he’s trying to decipher me, before nodding

GoodJust before he walks off to resume working, he looks back at me, I’ll even 

I feel sick. And not only because I’m pregnant

I’ll even raise your salary to sweeten the deal” 

Truth is, I really do need the money now. If I’m going to find a new pack and start a new life, if I’m going to provide a nice and stable life for my child, then I need as much money as I can get

Alaric and Lilia have both called me a gold digger more times than I can count by now. It was never even true

I had debts to pay, that much was true. Grandmother’s medical expenses were massive. I had to go to Alaric’s father, the last Alpha King, more times than I’d care to admit asking for financial assistance
