“So Carter is your mate? You’re certain? ” John asks.
I nod and bite the inside of my cheek.
“You can’t tell them.I know the girls and they won’t risk my life.Killing Carter is the only way! “
“And you could really kill your mate? ” Kalen asks.
“I have no choice.Besides, if I do as Carter says, he will give me Ava back.It’s a trade,” John leans forward, clasping his hands together.
“And you’re the trade? ” He says.
“Let us help you.I get why you don’t want to tell the girls, but you don’t have to do this alone.Let us help,” Kalen says.
“It can only be you, no one else.Carter has people on the inside helping.He knows things he shouldn’t know,” I tell them.
“OK.Say we let you go along with his demands.Ambush and kill him; you and Tatum split.You have a daughter, Macey.So then what, you die? ” Kalen asks.
I had thought of it plenty, which is exactly why I had Everly sign those papers.
My baby would be safe.
“I have plans for her in place.Everly and Zoe will take her,”Itell them, and John looks at Kalen.
“I will talk to Tatum after we sort this mess.Killing your mate, we have no idea what effect that will have.It’s different from Valarie and me, and you are rogue,” Kalen points out, and I knew exactly what would happen.
I would deteriorate faster.
One thing breaking a bond, another slaughtering it.
“No, Tatum was clear.We were over.I don’t want to be pity marked,”
I growl at the thought.
No one wants a sympathy mark.
John and Kalen seem to think when John sits back in his chair.
“OK, what about, and don’t take this the wrong way, but Kalen or I could mark you? .You, not us, just to keep you alive? ” I gape at him.
“Dude, you’re old enough to be my father! Ew! Gross! “
“Not like that! Just…”
“Nope! The bond will still have effects, grandpa! Keep your wrinkly, dusty old balls to yourself! I will let you help, but neither of you is marking me! “
I shriek and pull a face.
Yeah, I have no desire to be Valen or Everly’s stepmother by default.
“OK, we will figure out that bridge as we cross it,”
“No! I will figure out that bridge.Neither of you is taking a bite out of me.I would rather die than be attracted to your old asses! “
“I am not that old! What is it with this generation thinking we are old? I have plenty left in the tank, not that I would, you aren’t the only one grossed out by the idea, but at least we had one! “
Kalen snaps?
“Did you have a black-and-white TV? You are bloody old then! “
He curses.
“Bloody stubborn woman, fine! But tell us the plan, and let’s work something out,” Kalen says, reaching over and snatching John’s smokes.
He puts one in his mouth.
“Since when do you smoke? ” John asks him.
“When I am anxious.So shut and hand me a lighter! “
Kalen snaps, clicking his fingers at John.He then offers me the packet, and I take it, leaning against the wall.
“So, what is this plan? ” John asks, lighting his own smoke before passing me the lighter.
“We kill Carter, and take back the city, but first I need to get close enough to him and get Ava out,” I shrug.
“And the plan? ” Kalen asks.
“Ah, that’s all I got so far, I admit and Kalen curses.”
Everly POV
Something was going on with Macey and Kalen.
They had been joined at each other’s hip for the last two days.
And it was always the same excuse, too.
They were dealing with the hotel renovations.
Yet as Kalen left this morning, I couldn’t help but wonder because of the way Macey hung up abruptly on whomever she was talking to when I came out to make something to eat.
“Where are the kids?” I ask her as she starts packing belongings into her bag and why was she so dressed up?
“Kalen and John dropped them to school,” she answers with a shrug, trying to push me back toward the room.
“Go lay down, you’re on bed rest.I will bring your breakfast in.”
“And Valen?” I ask her not hearing him get up this morning, usually he wakes me.
“Ah something about meeting the council elders with Marcus before they pick up Zoe,” Macey answers as she shuffles me down the hall to my room.
Their constant fussing was driving me insane.
“Zoe is coming home?” I ask, feeling relieved.
She could have come home yesterday, but they kept her a n extra night so she could meet with a councilor this morning.
“Yep, and I think everyone is moving to the main packhouse today.Valen said something about organizing it,” Macey says as I climb back into bed.
I stare at her as I pull my blankets back up and notice she is all dressed up, which I thought was odd.She was even wearing makeup.
