Chasing His Scentless Mate (Caroline) novel Chapter 147

Chapter 147: Chapter 147 Liz Causes Trouble

Draven’s POV

I paced back and forth in my office.The DNA test results hadn’t arrived yet, but I was already the baby wasn’t mine. I just needed those results to put an end to this whole mess.

My phone rang and I snatched it up. "Yes?"

"Alpha, there’s someone at reception asking to see you," Ava informed me. "She said her name Liz."

I froze. What was she doing here? Wasn’t she supposed to be in New York?

"I’ll meet her in the first-floor conference room," I said to Ava, keeping my voice calm.

When Ava told me Liz had arrived, I finished an email and left my office. At reception, Liz lunged at me, wrapping her arms around my neck and kissing me before I could react.

"Great. Now this woman’s going to hang around pack territory?" Ryan growled, coming out of his office.

"Good afternoon to you too, jackass!" Liz snapped back. 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚

I sighed, pulled away, and headed for the elevator. That’s when I saw Caroline standing with Kyle, who was shaking her head at me.

The pain in Caroline’s eyes hit me. She walked straight past, entering her office with her head held high.

Kyle passed by me and before entering her office."Alpha Draven,If you’re not capable of sending this woman back to whatever den she crawled out of, let me know, because I won’t stick around to watch you destroy yourself."

"So, Alpha Draven, what are you going to do about this?" Ryan demanded, his voice sharp.

Ava didn’t hesitate. "He won’t do a thing, Ryan. He’s the one who let her in," she said coldly as she left office and headed toward the break room.

Ryan turned his back and walked back to his office. I stood there, feeling stuck and unsure. The smart move was to get Liz out of there, fast. I led her to the meeting room on the first floor.

Once we were alone, Liz tried to wrap her arms around my neck again. "So, Draven, who were those two women upstairs?" she asked.

I stepped back, keeping my distance. "Liz, what exactly do you want here?"

She pouted, trying to look sweet. "Isn’t it obvious? I want you."

I shook my head. "No, it’s not obvious.It ended between us a long time ago."

She smiled slyly. "But in New York, we met. And you wanted me again."

"Don’t twist the story," I growled, feeling the heat of Alaric’s anger rising inside me. "We met, I passed out drunk, and when I woke up, you tried to convince me something happened. It didn’t."

"Oh, sweetheart, it’s not like that. If you were in my bed, it means you want me. I’m just giving you a chance."

I couldn’t believe her. She had zero shame. My patience snapped.

"You’re dead wrong," I said."Do yourself a favor,leave. Get lost. I don’t feel a thing for you."

"Draven, don’t treat me like this. I came back for you."

"Then leave. I don’t even want to remember you exist. Please go away and don’t ever look for me again."

"Is this because you’re engaged to that boring Caroline?My mother told me everything! How did you end up with the woman you hate most in the world?"

"The same way I got involved with the most manipulative woman in the world, which would be you," I snarled."Now please leave and don’t contact me again."

"You think you scare me?" she said, sitting down and crossing her legs. "I’m not giving up on you, Alpha Draven."

I opened the office door and mind-linked the two security near the elevators.

"Escort this woman off pack territory. She’s banned from entering this building."

The security came over, and started guiding her out despite her protests. I quickly headed back to my floor. In the elevator, I mind-linked the head of security to remind him Liz wasn’t allowed in.

When the doors opened, I rushed to Caroline’s office. I could hear her trying to hold back tears. She was surrounded by Ryan, Kyle, Ava, and Rose.

"Alpha, she’s really upset. Now’s not the time," Kyle said, stepping in front of me with a protective stance.

"Come on, Kyle. I need to talk to her," I insisted.

"Not now, brother," Ryan said, blocking my way too.
