Chasing His Scentless Mate (Caroline) novel Chapter 165

Chapter 165: Chapter 165 Threats

Caroline’s POV

Monday morning came quickly. After dropping Liam off at daycare and informing them that Draven was Liam’s father with pickup privileges, we headed to work. At the office, Draven kept pulling me toward his office.

"Draven, my office is on the other side," I reminded him with a smile.

He groaned and closed his eyes. "I forgot."

As we approached my office, I saw Kyle leaving with a smirk on his face.

"Good morning, power couple!" Kyle greeted us enthusiastically. "Hope you don’t mind, but I’ve gone back to working with my old boss. I’m not in the mood to sit in the front office listening to you two... expressing your affection."

"Kyle..." I gasped, feeling my cheeks flush.

"Oh come on, girl, I know exactly what happens in the Alpha’s office."

"He’s not wrong, my mate," Draven said with a mischievous grin.

"Relax, Caroline. I’ve already moved everything back," Ava called from her desk.

When I entered my office, everything was perfectly arranged. As was tradition every Monday, there was a beautiful arrangement of tulips on the small table with a card that read, "You make me the happiest man in the world. My perfect mate."

My eyes welled up. These pregnancy hormones were turning me into such a crybaby. I hugged and kissed Draven, thanking Ava for her efficiency.

"So you’ve already stolen my assistant?" Ryan appeared, planting a friendly kiss on the top of my head.

"You stole her first!" Draven accused him.

"Watch out, or I’ll steal her again," Ryan threatened playfully.

I left them to their banter and asked Ava to join me for coffee. I wanted to know how things went with Theo. Ava shared that despite feeling sad about Joseph’s betrayal, she’d had a wonderful time with Theo and they’d agreed to see each other again.

Draven, Ryan, and Kyle joined us in the break room, followed shortly by Rose,who worked as the office cleaner.

"Finally, you two figured things out?" Rose pointed between Draven and me.

"Yes, Rose. You might want to sit down because I have lots to share..." Draven began excitedly, telling her everything. Rose’s face lit up with each revelation.

"So, that beautiful boy is your son!" Rose smiled. "He has your eyes, just like your father’s. I’m so happy for you both." She turned to Ava. "But why have you been looking so down lately, dear?"

"Rose, nothing gets past you, does it?" Ava sighed before explaining her breakup with Joseph.
