“I know. It’s just I don’t know Strange? Maybe because I’ve been away from this place for so long and I don’t know how to
feel”
“It’s okay to feel a little doubtful with everything, Sam As long as you believe in yourself, there’s nothing to be scared of ” Ethan spoke softly as we strolled towards the backyard, observing the playground that Dominie prepared for the kids “It’s been six years. Don’t tell me you haven’t found your mate yet,” Treased him, knowing that Ethan was a notorious womanizer in our younger years.
He rolled his eyes at me in dramatic exaggeration that made me chuckle, “How am I able to find the right woman for me when your mate kept on making me busy with endless paperwork!” he grumbled jokingly at me.
I frowned. “He told me he’s always done with his duties whenever he sneaks inside Moonstone to visit me and the kids,” I asked, a little curious and confused. “What’s happening?”
He eyed me “He’s never done with his job assignments!” Ethan blurted, more like complaining but with humor that made me miss him more because of his comedic side. “He’s worried that whenever he’s not around, you and that Moonstone Alpha will get closer and you have no idea how that makes him crazy, Sam. he’s crazy when he’s so paranoid about you and Alpha Killian.”
“So that’s the reason behind the late-night visits and his sudden appearance in my house.” My eyes squinted. “Are you saying he’s trying to catch me having an affair with Killian?”
Ethan saw the anger rising in me, though, so he quickly dodged the bullet. “More like he’s concerned about your safety and the kids, Sam. He wants to make sure you and the kids are safe from Killian’s enemies. Especially when the rumors spread all over the continent about the hybrids growing larger in number on the borders of Moonstone. And of course, the threat of Olivia to you and your children.”
My eyes sharpened as my stare grew cold and menacing.
“Richard Bennett kept on influencing the elders to convince the Alpha not to welcome you here,” he added with perturbation in his voice. Ethan was aware of this issue and found it concerning. “He thinks the council and the elders can help him convince Dominic that Olivia is the right Luna for the pack; that’s why Dominic couldn’t go here no matter how much he wanted to. He has to deal with them first and fix this before he sees you and the twins.”
I appreciate Dominic’s effort to defend me against his people. I knew it wasn’t easy for him no matter how much he displayed his power as their Alpha.
I was about to open my lips to tell Ethan how much I was grateful for him and Dominic when I heard a terrified scream inside the
house
My heart raced as I froze in fear and panic, and Ethan was the first to reach the door.
