Chasing His Scentless Mate (Caroline) novel Chapter 109

Chapter 109: Chapter 109 The Pack Joining Ceremony

Caroline’s POV

The days were flying by. I’d been back at Thorne Enterprises for almost a week now. Everything was going smoothly,I was monitoring the audit and handling my responsibilities without issues.

Draven and I continued our little games of teasing and sharing chocolate cake. True to his word, he had taken me on his desk, let me ride him in his chair, and I’d lost count of how many times he’d had me on that couch. We spent almost every night at my place, and Saturdays at his house.

I was truly happy. I had an amazing boyfriend who adored my son, a wonderful group of friends I cherished, and a job that fulfilled all my professional aspirations. Howard would spot me around the company, but couldn’t find opportunities to approach me. Despite his attempts, Dennis remained vigilant in keeping him away.

But recently, something strange was happening.Draven had developed this weird interest in my hands, always checking the size of my fingers and playing with them between his.

He started lightly tracing lines across my body with his fingertips, measuring and mumbling to himself. It annoyed me so much that I told him he wasn’t taking me seriously.

"What exactly are you doing?" I’d asked.

His violet eyes had sparkled mischievously. "Just admiring what’s mine."

That comment had sparked another one of our playful bedroom "fights" that inevitably ended with both of us tangled in the sheets, breathless and satisfied.

When I woke up this morning, I was surprised to find Draven already gone. He hadn’t woken me to leave together as usual. I went to check Liam’s room, but it was empty too.

Eleanor appeared beside me, looking unusually dressed up in a beautiful formal dress we’d purchased at Ava’s former boutique.

"Draven already took Liam to daycare," she told me casually.

I looked at her polished appearance with suspicion. "Elle, do you have a date with Nate today?"

She gave me a playful smile. "Let’s just say I have a special meeting to go to." Before I could ask more, she quickly walked away with a secret smile. "Got to get to work now!"

I shook my head, gathered my things, and headed to Thorne Enterprises.

I had barely stepped into the executive floor reception area when Kyle and Ava jumped out from seemingly nowhere, each grabbing an arm and guiding me toward Kyle’s office.

"Girls, where are you taking me? I have a lot of work to do today," I protested.

Kyle laughed, her eyes shining. "Forget work today. If anything’s left undone, Ava and I will take care of it."

Ava snorted. "She gets to skip work for something great, and I have to do her part? How is that fair?" 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶

I was completely confused. "Something great? What are you talking about?"

Without warning, Ava pushed me into a chair, and Kyle handed me a beautiful dress.

The two shared a look and shouted together: "Work!"

Nearly an hour later, I barely recognized myself in the mirror. They had turned me into someone who looked ready for a fancy party. The dress Kyle brought was a long silk gown in a deep green that made my eyes stand out. The top fit my body perfectly before flowing down to the floor with a small slit that showed just enough leg to look nice but not too much.

How did Ava know my size so well, even though I had bought clothes from her before?

Ava had worked wonders on my hair, styling it in soft waves that fell down my back, with a few parts pinned up to shape my face. Kyle had done my makeup, giving me a light smoky eye that made my green eyes stand out and nude lips that looked naturally pretty.

"What is all this for?" I asked again, touching the thin silver necklace they had put around my neck.

"You’ll find out," Kyle said with a smile, happy with what they had done.

Ava gave a proud nod. "Draven is going to go crazy when he sees you."

They led me to the elevator and brought me up to the top floor of the building, where I knew there was a big event space.Rory was oddly excited, moving around happily in my mind.

"What’s going on?"I asked her.

"Something wonderful," she replied."I can feel it."

When we reached the doors to the event space, Ava and Kyle each took a handle and pushed the doors open together.
