Chapter 0237
I stand up and pull a chair out for him. I set the chair away from both Angel and Cara. I’m not interested in him being too close to my mate either.
“Have a seat.” I tell him. I nod at the guards and they go to stand outside the door.
“Alpha Liam has told us your story.” Clint says.
“It’s all true.”
“We know that.” Clint replies and Eli frowns. “Gifts of a Guardian.”
Eli looks at Angel and I growl at him.
Eli rolls his eyes at me. “I don’t want your mate. I told you already that I know I made a mistake with Cara.” He turns to Cara. “And for that, I am truly sorry. What I did to you was wrong.”
Cara flicks her gaze to Angel, who nods. He’s telling the truth.
Cara turns to look at Rik. I can see him contemplating what he wants against what his mate is asking.
“What would you do if we were to let you go?” Rik finally asks Eli.
Eli looks shocked, his gaze going to every member of the room. “Is this some kind of joke?”
“No joke.” I say. “I had you as my prisoner because I thought you murdered my mother. Now that I know you haven’t, I have no reason to keep you. Rik and Cara have other reasons to want to see you punished.”
“And Liam here seems to think that beating on you for six months means you’ve paid your debt to Cara.” Rik adds.
“What do you think Cara?” Eli asks her, getting a growl from Rik.
“Angel said you meant your apology. If you truly are apologetic for what you did to me, then yes, I think you’ve paid your penance. But I would like to know the answer to Rik’s question. What will you do if we let you go?”
He shrugs. “I don’t really know. I’ve been on the run for twenty years. I don’t know what else to do with myself.”
“I’ll give you some money to get you started, but I don’t want you in my pack.” I
tell him.
He nods. “Understood.”

I look at Rik and after a moment, he turns from Eli to me. “I’m in agreement. Let him go.”
I’m pretty sure Eli’s mouth hit the floor. He looks around at everyone. “You’re serious?”
“Yep. I’m going into the human city tomorrow. I’ll drive you up there, give you some money and send you on your way. Until then, I’ll set you up in a room, but you will remain under guard until you leave here. Any act of aggression or violence toward any of my pack members will result in the immediate
termination of your life. Are we clear?” I tell him.
“Crystal.” He stands to leave, then turns back around to face the room. “Thank you. All of you.”
He walks out and I mind link my guards with my instructions.
“I guess that’s all for tonight.” I say.
Angel and I walk everyone out.

Where is the first of the guardians children’s books I can’t find it. Is it not done yet? I’m so invested in the whole saga I’m loving it and am itching for more!...
We missed the chapter we've been waiting for for so long! Dang it! 😞...
144 is from another book and now we miss out on everything once they realized they were mates!...
110 was uploaded twice...
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....
