~~

Seeing as Liam wasn’t on the bed, I went to the bathroom, just to check if he was there. Nothing.

For some reason, I felt worried now. Flashes of the night before crossed my mind, causing me to panic about my son’s whereabouts.

"Liam?" I called out as I rushed out of the room, and then down the stairs, sounding louder than I’d wanted.

I had this nagging feeling that something was wrong.

"Liam?!"

Just as I got to the living room, I paused in my tracks, sighing in relief. Liam was right there, looking curiously at Cullen and Lupe as they seemed to be arguing.

"Mom, I’m here!" Liam tilted his head, looking as innocent as ever. His voice startled me at first, but then I held my chest, relief washing over me.

I rushed to him, pulling him into an embrace.

"Liam! You scared me half to death, where did you go?" I pulled him out of the hug, holding him like I would never see him again.

I didn’t know why I was like this. It was probably all the pent-up stress from last night.

After talking a bit with Lupe, she talked about the both of us going to check out her house, to have an idea of just how damaged it was.

I was touched. She was still keen on the idea of us moving in with her, at least until we found another place to call home.

I ate some food prepared by Lupe with ingredients from Rhett’s kitchen. Then, after getting ready, we were off. I needed to talk to her about a few things anyway...girl to girl.

"So, I saw Gamma Rhett back at the house." Lupe cast me a glance, a knowing smirk on her lips as we walked through the pack grounds, greeted by noises of both wolves and fey going about their daily activities.

I rolled my eyes, shoving her playfully. "Well, duh. It’s his house, remember?"

Lupe chuckled. We still had a while before we reached our street.

"Come on, I know you saw him too. And if you did, I’m guessing something...happened?" Lupe pressed on, raising her brow with curiosity.

I couldn’t help blushing hard. I was just playing hard to get. Truth was, I was glad Lupe knew about Rhett and me. At least, now I had someone I could share my love life with.

"Fine." I drew in a deep breath, making sure to lower my voice. "We saw each other, yes. And he was so nice. He spoke to me sweetly and promised he would make our relationship public if I let him. And then we agreed to see each other tonight." I stared dreamily at nothing in particular, as images of my interaction with Rhett played in my head.

My mate seemed to be changing positively. He was showing more emotions around me, and that made my heart soften more for him. The man was always so full of surprises.

Suddenly, Lupe held my shoulder, shrieking with excitement. "He promised what?! Tonight? What’s happening –"

Before the blabber mouth could say anything more incriminating, I held her mouth, gazing around at the people walking past us in a panic.

"Why stop just shouting at the top of your voice?" I spat, my tone brimming with sarcasm. "Why not just go ahead and broadcast everything at the local news station? I’m sure it’ll make headlines."

The girl was unbelievable! She was almost making me wish I had mind-erasing powers. Maybe I didn’t need someone to share my secret concerning Gamma Rhett with after all.

Lupe heaved heavily under my hold, flushing red in embarrassment. "Jeez, I’m sorry. But I didn’t mention who it was we were talking about." She then looked around, smiling awkwardly at a woman who walked past us with a curious gaze on her face.

"Don’t worry, your secret is safe." She finally whispered to me.

I merely grunted in reply before continuing.

"Anyways, I feel kinda nervous. What if things get heated and we...’ do it’?" I felt my stomach dancing nervously at the thought.
