Chapter 160

Julian

I felt relief when Elsa told us that none of the recovered DNA–samples belonged to my little girl.

I try to link Jordan, but he has blocked me and I understand he doesn’t want anyone bothering him. But he needs to know this, so I link Maggie and ask her to inform Jordan about the news. A moment later he links me back and I can hear the relief he is feeling through the mind–link.

I had kept my eyes on Stephan when Elsa had taken the bracelet from me and something had been of with him.

Glenn asks me what is on my mind and I tell him that something about Stephan’s reaction did not make sense to me. Glenn knows that they had been best friends, since they had been toddlers and he knows me well enough to know it was not my imagination.

We discuss it for a little while longer and then I feel a hand on my shoulder. The meeting room is empty and Dagmar is standing next to me. “What is wrong, Julian? Something is troubling you.” She says and I smile at her, she knows me so well.

I explain what I had been discussing with Glenn. Maddox nods his head, because he agrees with me and he

eks if he needs to talk to Stephan. I think about it for a second and then I nod my head, I know I need

answers.

Maddox

I agree with Julian something was off with his reaction and I had noticed he checked his phone immediately after he saw the bracelet. Dagmar and I walk out of the meeting room and I mind–link Stephan, telling him to be in my office in an hour.

“Do you think Julian should be present at this meeting. I ask Dagmar. She is quiet for a few seconds and then she says “It is best if we talk to him alone. Julian might not like what he has to say or maybe he knows, nothing. Not everyone will react the same.”

I smile at the smart and very diplomatic answer of my Mate. I just nod my head and lead her to my office. Entering my office, I grab her hand and pull her with me to my desk.

I sit down on my chair and put her on my lap, pulling her close. I just need to hold her for a while and I need her to relax me. We just sit in silence, enjoying each other’s company.

Dagmar

It is strange to be in his office, sitting on his lap and not standing on the other side of the desk to receive orders. A knock on the door, jolts me out of my thoughts.

“Come in I hear Maddox say near my ear. I try to get up, but he holds me tight and I know that he will not let me go. The door opens and Stephan walks in. By the look on his face, he knows why he was called in to the Alpha’s office.

Maddox signals him to sit down and he takes the chair to my left. “Stephan, do you have any idea why 1 asked you to come to my office?” Maddox asks him. Stephan stares at his hands and I can see that he is nervous.
