Chapter 149

-Maya's POV-

The only thing I could think about was how slow this car was moving. Alex had promised we'd be a team from now on, but here I was, completely in the dark, while he was off meeting with witches to get his wolf back. Saying I was pissed was an understatement.

Ivy tugged on my hair, bringing me back to the present. I'd brought her and Nate along because, with Ivan still out there, there was no way I was leaving them alone, not knowing when I'd return. We were heading into witch territory, which was even more dangerous, but I'd rather have them with me.

I smiled down at her, "Yes, honey?"

She frowned at me, then held up a toy she'd been showing me before I zoned out. "It's beautiful," I smiled again, trying to focus on her.

Natalia intervened, pulling Ivy gently into her lap. "Give Mommy a moment, okay?"

Ivy pouted, but Natalia distracted her with a lollipop. She faced me, "You okay?"

I faced her, my voice low. "He promised he wouldn't keep secrets anymore. I'm pissed, but I'm more worried."

She squeezed my hand. "Understandable. He came back from the dead, that should prove his ass is more resilient than anyone else. He'll be fine. We'll get there in time."
