Contract With Alpha Logan

Chapter 146

Kael POV

Astrid was taken by surprise by mom’s question. I was sure she was thinking, why was the whole family eager to know about her eighteenth birthday?

“In a week,” she replied, trying to stifle her astonishment.

“Great!” mom said. “We are as such here for a week. So we will celebrate your birthday with you.”

Astrid’s eyes widened in surprise. “S–sure!” she replied, glancing at me.

I chuckled, stroking her arm fondly. She didn’t know that I had a talk with my parents about her.

When she was unconscious, I felt like my world would shatter. Mom and dad sat with me and counseled me. They said that Tracy had sent her a message regarding my relationship with Astrid. I was furious, but mom said that she was actually thankful to Tracy for sending the message to her because she was thrilled about me.

“But she’s a human,” I told her, conveying my suspicions. “And there’s been no human mate to the werewolves.”

“So what?” mom said. “There’s always a first time. Still, we have to be very cautious about all this, Kael. Have you told her you are a werewolf?”

I scratched the back of my head sheepishly. “No. I am scared that she would leave me if I reveal that.”

Dad was extremely serious. He said, “If you won’t tell her about your species, and she discovers on her own, she will get furious. There should be no lies between a relationship like yours. Especially, if you feel she’s your mate, you have to tell her. Besides, why do you feel she’s your mate?”

I explained to him my predicament and revealed every emotion I was feeling for Astrid. They were thrilled, but they wanted to stay for her eighteenth birthday. Maybe, as a human, she would smell me as her mate. The chemistry between us was as strong as titanium. Her eighteenth birthday was going to lift the veil from this mystery.

Astrid looked at us with curiosity in her eyes and said, “I’d love to have you all for my birthday.” She glanced at her aunt, who was coming inside with coffee, and pursed her lips.

Mom understood her predicament. She said politely, “Bree, Astrid’s birthday, is in a week’s time. I would like to host a party for her birthday at our place. I hope that is okay with you.”
