Chapter 14

Matilda

I quickly got ready and stepped out of the bathroom. The echo of Prescott’s husky command súll lingered in the air. Avoiding looking at the bed, I started packing my bag for his business trip.

“You don’t need to pack now. The meeting in the town has been postponed,” he informed and the crushing weight on my chest lifted, bringing instant relief.

I didn’t want to leave my little sister alone in the Silver Claw pack. I knew that it would take a few hours for her to wake up again and when she would wake up, I wanted to be with her.

“You look tense,” I remarked, looking at his tense muscles. Although I was feeling embarrassed after what just happened, my wolf was dying to get a glimpse of him.

“There is something weird about your uncle. I don’t know why but I get a sour vibe from him,” he said, not hesitating even a bit.

My uncle was a snake in the grass who betrayed me. I didn’t know why he helped me elope with Gabriel if he wanted my Dad to hate me after that. He was the one who told me to choose my fated mate because Alpha Prescott was the most ruthless Alpha who had killed so many wolves in cold blood.

“Can you tell me where he is staying?” I asked, ignoring his question. I needed to figure out why he was doing it to me when he loved me like his own child.

“He seems like a dangerous man. I won’t let you go alone to him,” my mate asserted decisively.

His overprotectiveness irritated me. I wasn’t a kid who needed his protection.

“Liam is my uncle. He has raised me like his own child. He will never harm me,” I declared, folding my arms, leaving no room for arguments..

“Fine but mind–link me if anything happens,” he replied coldly though he looked pissed off. “He is staying in the second last room of the pack house.”

“Thank you,” I said coyly before lowering my head. I didn’t want him to see me with flushed cheeks,

He watched me keenly with an amused smile on his face. “You’re always welcome, wifey.”
