I quickly went to check on Claire and the kids before heading to my office to see Blake’s mother. Claire was still shaken up about what happened and I can’t blame her. Your mate is supposed to be your protector, lover, and best friend, not someone you should fear.

She told me she was going to spend the night here and then tomorrow she would talk to him after he had calmed down. I didn’t tell her that I threatened him or that I would follow through if he was to ever hit her again. That can be our little secret.

I walked into my office to find Elizabeth sitting on my couch, looking at her phone. I wasn’t ready to have this conversation with her, but I think I can help her with her problem. The plan could backfire if she truly hates me, and I’m hoping she doesn’t. I want my kids to have a relationship with their grandparents.

“First, I demand to know how you found out,” she growled before I even sat down.

“Before, I explain that, I want to give you some advice,” I said and she scoffed, crossing her arms over her chest. I took my seat, watching her intently. Maybe she does hate me and this will just send her right to the council and away from her son.

“I think you should just tell them the truth. Both of them would never look at you any differently,” I sighed.

“And how the fuck would you know? How the hell did you even find out?” She yelled, standing up from the couch.
