The call ended abruptly as Charlotte swallowed tightly. “I was talking to my dad. He complained about how uncomfortable it is to live with neighbors,” she lied smoothly.
Alpha Nick was not suspicious of anything because he had not heard her. All he saw was her speaking on the phone. The problem with her parents disturbed him greatly, and he made the necessary arrangements.
“I already told Dustin to handle it.”
His demeanor and response were confirmations that he hadn’t heard what she was saying on the phone. The reason Beta Dustin was also not in the pack was because he was taking care of the house Nick ordered him to build for Charlotte’s parents.

Beta Dustin was very happy that Sheila had left the pack and was eager to make Charlotte happy and comfortable. He didn’t mind staying at the Bane’s Pack until it was completed since Alpha Nick was around.
Due to the gala awards, he might have to return for a short while to handle the pack since Alpha Nick was attending with Charlotte.
“Thank you very much.” Charlotte hugged Alpha Nick. He didn’t hug her back, but neither did he push her away. His feelings towards her were so strange that it made him feel guilty.
He was no longer obsessed with her like before, and the only thing holding them together was the uncompleted
bond.
He couldn’t bring himself to mark and mate with his mate, and that disturbed him greatly. Also, he couldn’t seek Titan’s help as he had already made it clear how repulsed he was with Charlotte.
Alpha Nick felt guilty, wondering if it was because of the kidnapping. Charlotte had said she couldn’t remember much about it except when she escaped after the people died.
She was rescued by Beta Dustin before she could pass out from fatigue. “I’m sorry for what happened earlier, but the maids said they have finished, so I will shower and rest first,” Alpha Nick smiled a little and said.
Disappointment dulled Charlotte’s eyes. “I thought you were going to spend the night here.”
The apology had filled her with hope that Alpha Nick would consider getting intimate with her, but that was just

A complicated emotion formed in Alpha Nick’s eyes. He could not tell for how long it would take for that nagging feeling towards his mate to stop but hoped it won’t be long.
One advantage of being an Alpha was his sensitivity, and he feared what had been done to Charlotte to make her so repulsive. No matter what, he was determined to stand by her, but never would he mate with her until his wolf
got over the repulsion.
“It’s too early. Just rest.”
Charlotte bit her lips thoughtfully. With Tom on her neck, it would be good to get him the money very fast to keep him busy in his company. That way, he would not disturb her or come to the Dark Moon pack, so how could she leave things to chance?
“Nick, do you hate me? You were the one who wanted us to mate before. I’m sorry that I refused then. I was stupid and overly obsessed with how things were done in New York City.”
She approached Alpha Nick, holding his two hands playfully. There were so many things he couldn’t understand at the moment. It was better to not complicate them, not when he still felt like he owed Sheila.
“Charlotte, please give me time. It’s hard for me to share my room with anyone.”
“No, but I can’t understand the reason why things are different now.”
