My Promised Rejection (Olivia) novel Chapter 59

59 Telling Hudson

Hudson POV

I can’t imagine why the hell Liam just ran out of here like his a** was on fire. We were in the middle of a conversation about Ace returning and he jumped out his chair and took off. I retake my seat back behind my desk expecting him to return any minute. A knock on the office door has me sitting back in my chair.

When the door opens a little girl steps inside followed by Olivia. My heart starts to race. I study the little girl’s features and I can see bits of my mate Lorraine in her features. I fight the tears that threaten to fall as I stand moving around my desk.

“Hudson, this is your granddaughter Della. Della this is your grandpa,” Olivia says. Her words break the dam and the tears flow down my cheeks. The little one moves toward me. When she comes to stand in front of me she reaches her hands up to me. My beast whimpers as I reach down and scoop her up in my arms.

The minute she is in my arms I feel whole once again. I’ve had this dull ache ever since I lost Lorraine. It became part of me but now having Ace and Della the hole that was left behind by my broken bond has been filled. “Where is your daddy?” “Liam do you think that you can take Della to get a snack while I talk with Hudson” Olivia says.

I didn’t even realize that Liam had stepped into the office. “Of course, my queen” he says. I smile at the surprise on Olivia’s face. She will be queen if Ace takes his rightful place some day. I reluctantly set Della on her feet. “It’s alright grandpa. Now that I know about you we can spend lots of time together” Della says. Warmth spreads throughout my chest hearing this precious little girl call me grandpa. I missed out on seeing my own pup grow up but I refuse to let the same thing happen with Della. Liam takes her hand and they close

the door behind them.

“Thank you, Olivia. I never thought I would find Ace but to know that not only do I have a son but a

granddaughter has given me a new sense of purpose. I am also grateful to have a daughter.” She smiles and

I’m so glad that Ace found her. “Of course, Hudson. She was excited to meet you. I promise you can spend

more time with her before we head back to the pack but I needed to speak to you first” she says.

A feeling of unease washes over Waylen and I. I’ve noticed that he has gained so much of his strength back

since we’ve met Ace. Now he is at the front of my mind wanting to hear every word Olivia has to say. “Of

course, what did you need to speak to me about?” “I’m not even sure where to begin” she says. “Take your

time and let your wolf lead you.”

“I had rejected Ace because he was married when I realized he was meant to be mine.” I try to keep the look

of shock and anger from my face. When Ace and Olivia were here together I could see how much she loved him so I knew she had her reasons. “Della’s biological mother left Ace and Della a year ago. My brother is the Alpha of the pack we live in. When I/returned for his Alpha ceremony Ace and I found each other again,” she

says.

“This time there was nothing stopping us from accepting our bond. I found out shortly after that my wolf was special.” I look at her confused. “I am a guardian wolf.” My heart starts to race again. The only time a guardian wolf is born is to protect a midnight wolf. I look at the door my granddaughter just walked through before I look back at Olivia. She nods confirming my fear. Della is the midnight wolf.

“Have you spoken with her beast?” “We have. Her name is Amethyst.” “Does anyone else know of her

existence?” “Yes, only people we trust. My brother and sister in law and the Beta and Beta Female of our pack. They are our family and I trust them with my life,” she says. “Even people you think you can trust can betray you Olivia. You need to keep her wolf a secret for as long as you can.” “That‘ actually why we are here, Hudson. Someone you trusted has betrayed you” she says.

My body bristles at her words. None of the men here would betray me. They have been the only family I have had for the last thirty years. I trust these beasts with my life. I’m just about to tell her that isn’t possible when

she speaks again. “Cassandra the witch you spoke about betrayed you Hudson.”

Now I’m even morre confused. “Olivia, Cassandra died. I watched rogue vampires bleed her dry. There was nothing I could do trapped behind the barrier. I hated myself for a long time for failing her but I promise you

Cassandra is very much dead.”

1. me. I stand to my feet Waylen trying to take control. “My son is in danger. Why are we hear talking if your

mate is in danger” I ask, harsher than I mean too. Despite my anger Olivia smiles at me.

“Ace allowed himself to be taken. We knew the vampires attack had something to do with the midnight wolf

but Ace was hoping to get more information by allowing them to kidnap him. Believe me I wasn’t happy at first but I trust Ace and Ryker,” she says. “What does any of this have to do with Cassandra being alive?”

“That could be a coincidence. I’m sure there is more than one witch named Cassandra in our world.” “I know you don’t want to believe this Hudson but I promise you its the same Cassandra. She has no idea that Ace is a Lycan. She apparently likes to talk and because she thinks that Ace is human and not a threat, she is talking a lot” she says. Could this really be the same Cassandra? What could she have possibly gained by
