Chapter 0050
Cara’s POV
Aside from Eamon, I’m the first to arrive at the family meeting Eamon has called.
No surprise there, I try to be early for all of my appointments.
Eamon is seated at the head of the table, and I take the seat to his right. He smile to me.
Colin arrives next, then the twins Aidan and Ryan together, and finally Landon.
Once again, my brother Richard is absent from another family meeting. He’s been gone since just after my accident, off studying somewhere far away.
He’s punishing himself in this way, and also, trying to find a way to heal Mia.
He’s really regret for his role in all of Lilia’s wicked plans to hurt me…I’m not sure if it’s the best decision that he’s gone.

Even though Colin is the youngest brother and tends to be quieter than the others, he never hesitates to show how much he worries about me.
“You can say that again,” Aidan chimes in. “I don’t trust that guy.”
I reply, “Look, I appreciate the concern, but I can ”
“Can take care of yourself,” Ryan finishes for me. “Yeah, we know. We’re jus about you, sis.”
“We only just got you back,” Colin says softly. “We can’t lose you again.”
…oh.
I feel the love they have for me, like a warm blanket wrapped around me.

I look into Colin’s eyes, hoping he feels my own love for him, for all of them. “You won’t

lose me. I’m right here.”
“What if he finds out about the children?” Colin asks solemnly.
It’s a fair question, one I’ve considered many tones since I heard about the idea of re- opening the business relationship with DarkWood.
+25 BONUS
I’ve spent the last six years hiding them away, as far away from Alaric as I can manage brothers have worked just as hard to protect the secret of their existence.

But, I can’t let my own issues stand in the way of the Pack’s progress.
