“She’s not aware it’s you.”
I mutter, seeing how tightly her eyes are closed. Beads of sweat hover along her hair line. She starts to cry, repeatedly calling out for ‘Daddy’.
“Dorothy,”
I speak softly. “Dorothy, it’s Neah, you are safe.”
“Daddy!”
She screams at the top of her lungs and our bedroom door is nearly knocked down by Damien. Her cries settle into quiet sobs as he pulls her into his arms, muttering softly to her.
“Say what you want, Damien, but you’ve just beca Dad.”
Dane smirks at him.

“I’m not ready to be a mother. I thought he would cback and we would have the best sex session to date but no, he brings someone else back.”
“Again, it’s a six year old.”
‘I can’t compete with that.”
“I don’t think he is expecting you to compete. You are his mate.”
“She calls him Daddy.”
‘I am aware.
“It’s fucking insane.”
“It’s not. Not really. He saved her from a terrifying scenario. One that ΟΠ could probably get ten times worse as she got older. He protected her, like a father should.”
Not like my father.

Unknown POV
“Yes?”
I mutter, swirling the wine in my glass before taking a large mouthful. It had been a long day and I didn’t need another idiot in my life. He saunters up tolike a lost sheep. His dark hair is a mess and he looked and smelled as though he hadnt seen a shower for weeks. “You better start talking if you are going to invade my space with that stench.”
“I’m looking for a favour.”
He asks quietly “I don’t do favours.”
I sneer, setting my empty glass down on the circular table.
He slides into my booth anyway. “You are the Lone Wolf, right?”
I smirk. I hadn’t heard that term in a long time. “Oh honey, I’m the furthest thing from a Lane Wolf.”
“Right. Because you are not a Wolf are you.”
The balls on this guy. “You think you know everything.”
I wave to the bartender who bringsover a fresh drink. His eyes shifted to the trash sitting oppositeand he quickly looks away.
It was a rule in here that I am not to be disturbed. Especially not when I still had blood on my fingers.
“I know enough. One of your kind killed my mate.”
He seethes. I couldn’t hold back the laugh. “And I want revenge.”
“Did you piss it off? He scowls at me. If he didn’t look so filthy, he could probably be quite handsome. Maybe then i wouldn’t have minded the interruption. “No. my brother brought their kind into our pack. A Rogue followed. The Rogue was the one who murdered her.
“So letguess, you blbig brother and now you want revenge.”
I let the merlot hit the back of my throat. I preferred something much fuller bodied. but this was the best the bar offered.
‘I didn’t say big brother.”
“You didn’t need to. If your brother brought them into the pack. My guess is he is the Alpha, which makes you, poor little brother.”
I hit a soft spot. I could see it in his dark eyes “Ch, was the dream to be an Alpha?”
Fucking alpha’s and their need for control.
“And now what? You want to claim it back. I can’t help you.”
Nor did I want to help. He was focussing on the wrong person for a start.
“Our pack wag+fine until they arrived. And it all stafted with one.”
He SCrews uphis hand and slams it info the tableralmost knocking my wire glass over. If that had gone all over me, Tight have just stabbed him in theheck with the glass. Conten belongs to O “That’s not my problem.”
“Rumour has it that you will accept jobs for a decent amount of cash.”
“And that’s what you have is it? Look at the state of you, you might as well have slept in a hole in the ground. “I’ve been a little busy.
“Mourning your dead mate.”
He nods, lowering his head as he rolls his neck.
“Right.”
I get to my feet. “I can’t give you the help you are looking for. Correct that, I won’t.”
“I think you will change your mind.”
He calls out afteras I strut away.
He catches up to me, standing far -.
too closefor my liking. His breath the only clean thing about him,c fanning across my skin. “Yousre a Kitson, right.”
I spin around to glare at him, my hand locking against his throat wile pressing my stiletto heel into thie toe N of his shoots. “Where the fuckodid you hear that name?”
a “My brother’s mate is a Lycan.”
“Impossible. Wolves are not mated to Lycans.”
“That’s just it, all three of us were. And my brother is mated to the most powerful one. The female Alpha.”
My hand moves from his throat to his grubby jacket as I drag him to the ladies room. He laughs as I slam the door shut and push him back against the pink tiles “You better start talking. Because I am seconds a way from ripping your throat out.
“Or what?”
He chuckles “You wouldn’t be the first kill tonight. Your name?”
