Chasing His Scentless Mate (Caroline) novel Chapter 31

Chapter 31: Chapter 31 Go For It

Caroline’s POV

I left the office unable to believe what had happened between Draven and me, but it had been absolutely amazing. Rory purred contentedly inside me.

Rory whispered, "His touch made us burn with desire."

"God, yes. Absolutely."

I still had doubts about whether he could be my true mate, but whatever. Live in the moment, Caroline.

I decided to take a taxi to get home faster to see my son. When I arrived, Liam came running to me all smiles, with his slightly stuffy voice happily shouting, "Mommy." My son filled my heart with love, his violet eyes just like his father’s.

Eleanor hadn’t arrived yet. I chatted a bit with Mabel—she was truly wonderful, had already prepared everything, including dinner, and Liam had already taken his medicine.

"Mabel, I don’t even know how to thank you," I said sincerely.

"There’s nothing to thank me for, Carrie. Your son is the most adorable cub I’ve ever taken care of. He’s no trouble at all, even with this cold. Besides, when Luna Marla called saying she needed me to look after her grandson, I was very happy—I get very lonely at home."

I smiled at what she said. Eleanor’s mother really did consider my son as her grandson and had made sure he would be well cared for while we worked.

"Luna Marla is a wonderful person. I’m very grateful to Elle’s family—they’ve been so good to me," I commented to Mabel.

"But you deserve that kindness, Carrie. You’re a very special she-wolf."

"Thank you, Mabel."

"Now go take a shower and put on something comfortable. I’ll stay with Liam until you’re done."

I thanked her and did exactly what she said. When I returned to the living room, Eleanor had already arrived and was covering Liam with kisses while he excitedly waved a bag of candy in his hands.

"Elle, you’re going to leave this boy toothless with all this candy and chocolate," I said with a smile.

"I’m his godmother. I can spoil my little cub as much as I want," she replied with a huge grin.

"Well, girls, I’m heading out now. Take care of my little one, okay?" Mabel said, smiling at us.

"Oh no, Mabel, won’t you stay for dinner with us?" I pleaded like a child.

"Yeah, please stay longer, Mabey!" my son said with an adorable face and cute little smile.

"Oh, my sweet boy, I can’t today." She stroked his little face and kissed his cheek, making my heart grow even fonder of her.

"Mabel, I have to work tomorrow. Could you come and stay with Liam?" I remembered to ask before she left.

"No need, Carrie. I’m not working tomorrow and can spoil my godson all day long. Right, little one?" Eleanor said, drawing a giggle from my son.

"Isn’t Nate coming this weekend, Elle? I don’t want to mess up your plans," I asked worriedly.

"What plans are you talking about, silly? Nate’s coming next week because he’s moving here for good," she said with a huge smile. "Tomorrow it’ll be just me and my little cub. And we’ll postpone our outing until next week, right, since Liam has a cold. That way we can give Mabel time off."

"Yes, that’ll be better, especially since Nate will be here by then. So Mabel, we’ll see you on Monday," I said with a smile to our nanny.
