Nova POV:
“I can’t blame you” Sophie says quietly, “I would have had the same reaction.”
“I know, but I still feel guilty” I admit as I realise she knew that would have been our first thought.
“Well don’t, please” she says with a small smile.
“So you confronted Hannah?” I ask getting back to the topic at hand.
“Yeah” she sighs, “I told her I was fighting with dad and I needed to let loose for al while. We met at a hotel under the pretence of going out to a club for the night. But I said I fancied some food first so I drove to a quiet diner and suggested getting some fresh air with a walk to clear my head. She suspected nothing” she chuckles darkly. “I restrained her and told her I knew who she was. She was terrified, she told
me..everything.”
“What do you know?” I ask interested.
“I know your grandfather knows Caroline is here, I also know he has 3 spies, all high
up and they tell him everything there is to know about you” she admits.
“Anything about dad?” I check concerned.
“No” she says shaking her head, “I lied about where i lived whenever i spoke to Hannah about home, it was part of the agreement of dad allowing me to go to
college. But also i never told people the truth of where we were, I grew up not trusting others and it was dad’s strict instructions to never expose our whereabouts.”
“So why didn’t grandfather do anything if he knew where I was?” I ask.
“Because he knew one day dad would find you, and he’s been waiting for that day” she says quietly.
“Anything else?” I ask calmly.
“I know how many hunters there are under his control and I know he’s planning an attack on you. But if they find out what happened to Hannah that may change” she
admits wincing.

“Do you think they will in the next week” I ask quietly.
“I don’t think so, I had the idea to send a text off of Hannah’s phone saying she was spending 10 days with me and that in that time she can’t risk being found so she
wouldn’t be contacting them” Sophie says.
“Impressive idea” I praise her making her blush slightly.
“Well it was common of her to disappear for a little while and then report back her findings I realised once I looked through her phone. I’m confident they won’t suspect. anything, she has no trackers on her phone either I checked” she says a little
flustered from the compliment I paid her.

“Nice” I smirk. “You’ve done a good job Sophie. Admittedly would have liked to know beforehand but I know you were protecting us and for that I’m thankful. Are you ok though? I can imagine today has been a long day.”
“I’m nervous to face Luca, what if he hates me” she whispers.
“Why would he hate you?” I exclaim.
“I spent time with your parents killer, she was involved in the attack Nova. It was there on her phone” she admits looking scared to tell me. “I have it with me for you to look.
at.”
“You didn’t know Sophie, you were used do you hear me? This is not your fault” I
comfort her. “Luca will have been worried for you, yes at first he was angry when we
discovered the photo but Jax spoke to him..and me. Jax didn’t believe for one
moment that you could betray us.”
“Really?” She whispers surprised.
“Yes. He made some extremely valid points” I explain.
“Nova love are you ok?” Jax links me making me realise I’ve been gone a while.
“Jax has linked me, are you up for going to the office?” I ask.
Squaring her shoulders she nods her head determinedly, “yes, I need to tell them
myself.”
“That a girl” I wink before going to get my coffee. “D amn” I moan as I pick up my cold cup. “Let me just make a fresh one, I need caffeine” I say making her chuckle lightly,”

do you want one?”
“Please” she smiles politely.
“I’m glad we got to chat Sophie, I’m sorry we haven’t been able to spend more time.
together but once this has all calmed down we will. I’ll make sure of it” I promise her.
“I’d really like that” she murmurs happily.
Turning with the tray I jerk my head to the stairs, “come on then, I’ll lead the way.”
“On my way up love, I’m not alone. Don’t let anyone react badly” I warn him.
“Ok..?” He asks through the link fishing for more details.

“See you in a minute” is all I say as we head up the stairs.
Opening the door I smile reassuringly at Sophie, “look who found me” I say lightly ast
we walk into the room together.
“S…Sophie?!” Luca exclaims in shock as he stands from the sofa. Seeing everyone else pause as they take in my relaxed stance I smile lightly.
“Sophie has a lot to tell you, but I’m going to make it clear as I can tell that Luca is itching to check on his mate. She did not in any way betray us, she did what she did to protect us” I say clearly as relief spreads across my father’s face.
With a sigh of relief Luca rushes to her and wraps her in his arms holding her tightly to him, “I thought you’d left me” I heard him whisper.
“I’m so sorry Luca” she says into his chest whilst reaching an arm around to stroke his back comfortingly. “You’ll never lose me.”
“Sophie are you ok?” Dad asks stepping forward looking concerned.
“Yes dad, I’m ok. I promise” she says with conviction.
“Why don’t you sit down Sophie and tell them everything you told me” I say gesturing to the sofa. With a nod she turns to sit down but Luca pulls her down onto his lap in
comfort.
Seeing Jaxs bewildered face I walk over and sit on his lap as well dropping a soft k*ssi on his lips, “just listen, you were right.”
