Chasing His Scentless Mate (Caroline) novel Chapter 75

Chapter 75: Chapter 75 Forgiveness

Draven’s POV

Ryan, Nate and I were standing in Harbor Bay’s most exclusive flower shop, surrounded by an explosion of colors and scents. I was still hesitant about this whole flower plan, thinking it might be too extravagant.

"You sure about this?" I asked Ryan as the florist showed us arrangements that would barely fit through a standard doorway."These are massive. Isn’t this a bit... excessive?"

Ryan clapped me on the shoulder. "That’s the whole point, Alpha! These arrangements are so ridiculously huge that they’ll have to call us to complain."

"And then we swoop in like knights in shining armor to rescue them from their floral prison," Nate added with a grin. "Giving us the perfect excuse to see them at work."

I had to admit, the strategy was clever in its absurdity. Plus, I was desperate to see Caroline again, to continue earning her forgiveness. "Fine. But if this backfires, I’m blaming both of you."

"Trust us," Ryan said confidently. "This will work."

When we walked into the Puma Global building that afternoon, I saw Ryan searching the lobby for Ruby. We’d all planned to get our women at the same time, all of us sorry wolves trying to make things right with our girlfriends.

When Ryan and I got to the girls’ floor and walked to their desks, I almost laughed out loud. The flower arrangements were even bigger than we thought. Caroline and Ruby had piled books at the corners of their desks to hold up the flowers, just to see their computers.

It looked like they were working in a tiny jungle. I looked at Ryan, and we both tried not to laugh.

"How are the most beautiful women in the world doing today?" Ryan asked with his usual charm, making the girls look up.

They shared a look before glaring at us.

"Do you know how many flowers are in here? Because we do. Our colleagues started a betting pool to guess how many flowers were in our ’personal gardens.’ Even our boss joined in." Caroline was furious.

"Do you know what they’re calling us here? The spring girls. And that was the nicest thing we heard all day!" Ruby was just as mad as Caroline. Maybe we had overdone it. But they looked so cute when angry.

"Ruby, don’t be mad! It was just a small romantic gesture. Maybe we got a little carried away." Ryan took Ruby’s hand and kissed it.

"Romantic? Really, Ryan? This is just crazy!" Caroline huffed.

"Sweetheart, don’t be so mad." I pulled her close for a quick kiss.

"Whoa, what do you think you’re doing?" She tried to step back. "I’m not your sweetheart, and since when can you just kiss me like that?"

I silenced her with a movie-worthy kiss, pulling her into my arms and dipping her back like in old films. Her coworkers whistled and clapped. When I set her back up, she was breathless.

I looked over to see Ryan doing the same thing, leaving Ruby just as flustered. My Beta had the biggest grin on his face.

"Finally kissed my redhead!" Ryan announced proudly.

"Come on, ladies, we’ll take you home and be your servants tonight," I said, lifting that huge vase from Caroline’s desk. We might have gone too far, but seeing her blush made it worth it.

We met Elle and Nate in the elevator. Elle said she was going to her mate’s place since I’d be taking Caroline home. At her building, Mr. Cooper, the friendly doorman, was at his post.

"I see you’re really persistent, young man!" Mr. Cooper commented with a knowing smile.

"And I’m sure I’ll earn her forgiveness, Mr. Cooper," I said, returning his smile.

"So you’re part of this conspiracy too, Mr. Cooper?" Caroline asked the gentleman, hands on her hips.

"My dear, I’m an old romantic! And I can see this wolf loves you. You make such a beautiful couple. Let him grovel at your feet, be tough on him, but forgive him in the end, dear. Nothing in life is more beautiful than experiencing true love." Mr. Cooper was truly an excellent ally.

"I’ll think about it, Mr. Cooper. Good night," Caroline said and headed toward the elevators.

I thanked Mr. Cooper, who gave me a thumbs up and waved for me to go. I ran to the elevator after my mate.

When she unlocked the door, Liam ran straight to me for a hug. She introduced the babysitter, who was leaving soon. While Caroline went to shower, I used the chance to plan a surprise with my little helper. Liam helped me order dinner from a nice place, and I made sure to get chocolate cake for dessert.

We had dinner and spent time playing. Later, I tucked Liam into bed. He was such a sweet kid. Back in the living room, I pulled Caroline close to me.
