Chapter 0182
“Dustin said you checked on me several times. That’s very nice of you, unnecessary. I’m feeling better.”
“So I see. You’re able to stand and walk on your own now?”
She nods. “Only short distances, but yes,
I’m able to walk.”

“That’s wonderful news. Have you eaten dinner?” She shakes her head, no.
“I’ll ask them to bring up two trays, and I’ll eat with you, is that okay?”
“I was going to lay down for a bit first. Maybe after that?” She says.
Perfect. “That sounds good. I’ll go get a shower and see what’s for dinner.” I watch as she walks back to her bed. She’s a bit wobbly but she’s able to do it. I help her get up into the bed and tuck her in before heading to my room.
I grab my phone dialing a number I haven’t called in over six months. She answer
on the second ring.
“Liam.”
“Hey Cara. I need your help.”
“Of course, anything within my control, you know that.”
“I need you to come to my packhouse. Can you do that?”
“When?”
“Now?”
“I’ll see you in forty–five minutes.”
“Thank you, Cara.”
“Liam, I hope you know that even after everything, I still count you as one of my closest friends.”
I smile. Of course she does, she’s amazing like that. “See you soon.”
I shower and head downstairs after poking my head back in on Angel. Her eyes are closed, and her breathing is heavy.
I check on the options for dinner, ordering something for three now, knowing Cara may also be hungry. Right on time, I hear a knock at the front door of the packhouse. I open the door to her smiling face.
“Hello Liam.”
“Hey Cara. Come in.”
She steps past me into the foyer then turns opening her arms in invitation. I pull her into a hug. I had expected it to hurt, to feel the pain of the loss that I felt months ago. But there is none of that. There is only the familiar feeling of the care that I always had for this woman. She feels like family, not like a lost love.
I sniff her hair and realize her scent is different. I take her by the shoulders and push her back, smiling down at her. “Congratulations?” I ask, unsure if I’m supposed to know.
Her smile brightens the room. “Thank you! We’ve only just told the pack. My scent started changing and we didn’t really have a choice.” She tells me, all bubbly energy.
“Is it a boy or a girl?” I ask.
“We don’t know yet, but Rik is certain it’s a girl. He says she has my honey smell.”
I smile down at her. “I’ll take his word for it.”
Height wise, she’s not much taller than Angel, but in size, she’s a good two sizes larger, and Cara is ripped. She trains four hours a day every day. I once had the opportunity to train with her and it kicked my ass. To know that even ripped. she’s so much bigger than Angel, gives me hope that my girl will fill out.
“So, what is this about Liam? How can I help you?”
“I want you to meet someone. She came into my borders a couple of weeks ago, on her death bed. She’d been held hostage by vampires and will take some time to recover, so just know that going in.”
“Okay.” She draws out the word as we begin heading upstairs. “But why am I here?”
“She’s special Cara. I need to know if you get any feelings from her. I don’t know, maybe your Guardian senses will tell you something that I can’t figure out.”
She grabs hold of my arm and pulls me to a stop just as we reach the Alpha floor. “She’s your mate, isn’t she Liam?”
I turn to her. “She is, but she doesn’t know it yet. She’s very weak and her wolf is just slowly returning. She hasn’t recognized the mate bond.”

You said in other chapters Cara smells like vinallia and lavender and now are saying she smells like vinallia and honey. Didn't know of that was on purpose or a mistake....
