Chapter 0137
Neah
“Are you sure I can’t do anything to help?” I ask Raven. “It’s really hard to just sit and do nothing.
“No. You need to stay right there. Eric has it handled.” She passes me a ss of orange juice and climbs on to the bed with me. “Have you heard
anything from Dane?”
I shake my head. It was the longest I had gone without speaking to him. It felt strange. I knew he was fine now. I could feel it, but it didn’t stop me
thinking about him.
‘I’m sure everything is good. You never know. He might be back for the party.” Raven mutters hopefully
“Eric already said it was unlikely and we still haven''t figured out what we are doing about Roan.”
“You don’t need to worry about that. Eric and us will have it covered.”
I groan, sipping the orange juice when there is a knock at the door.
“Come in!" Raven calls out
Eric steps into the room. His eyes are low. “Dane is on the way home.
“He found Jess?" I mutter, shoving my juice at Raven
“Yes. She is fine. she is safe."
“Why does it feel like you are not telling us everything, Eric?” Raven is staring at him with her dark eyes. “I’ve known you my entire life. I know when
there is something else you want to say. Jenson is fine, Dane is fine and you have just said Jess is safe. So what is it?”
His eyes settle on me. "You need to stay calm.”
Raven mbers off the bed and punches Eric in the arm. “Are you serious? You should know by now that telling a woman to remain calm, doesn''t
make them remain calm!”
He sighs “Dane is bringing Mallory here.”
It felt like my heart stopped. “Why....Why would he do that? You told him. You told him what she did to me. You said he confirmed it was the same
woman. That she had the same scar.”
“Neah, breathe!” Raven mutters as I get out of bed and start pacing
“He’s bringing her here?!" I almost cry
Let me think! Nyx snaps, she was just as riled up as I was. ‘Maybe...maybe he is bringing her here so we can kill her.’
“Nea, talk to me.” Raven mutters
Maybe he wants you to get closure.’ Nyx suggests
I felt sick. Since I had heard the name, the memory of what she had done to me had unlocked. And now, just like my parents bloody faces, I rey it
over and over in my head. The pain, the cracking of my skull, my pleading until my words were nothing and darkness took over.
“Neah!” Raven calls my name again.
“She can''te here.” I mutter
“Okay. But please get back into bed.” She turns back to Eric, “Why the hell would he bring her here?”
“He said he would exin when he arrived.”
“I don’t understand.” I mutter, moving out of Raven’s way. “He always said he wanted to kill everyone that had hurt me. And now...he is bringing her
here. To my home. I''m pregnant!”
“And that is why you need to rest. We can handle this.” She clenches her teeth as she res at Eric. “Can''t we!”
“Of course, you and the heirs are our priority.” Eric mutters
I feel my stomach churn. I already knew what wasing andunch myself in the direction of the toilet
“Just go and keep an eye on Roan.” Raven mutters at Eric as she rubs my back.
“It''s a joke right?” I mutter when she helps me back into bed.
“Dane always ‘has his reasons. I’m
sure he wouldn''t do anything that
would purposely put you in harm''s?
way. Fodils on the positives. Jessis
safe. Dane and Jenson are bringing
her tome. No matter what is-thrown
atyou, you have found a way to rise
above. If you have to kill fir, then kill
her.” N?velDrama.Org exclusive content.
“You''re right. I need to keep my pups safe.”
She nods and flicks on the television. “Now, can we watch this film I’ve been telling you about?"
“Why are we still going ahead with this?” I mutter as Raven slowly walks with me towards the training grounds.
Music had been ying for most of the afternoon. Everyone already seemed to be in the party mood, though it wasn''t supposed to be starting until
sunset.
“As I have said, the pack needs it. It was Dane’s idea. It kept Roan here a little longer and it gave my brothers the chance to find Jess.”
And bring the bitch here.’ Nyx growls
“Ladies!” Roanes up behind us. Did he hear Raven? “How are you feeling Neah?
“Tired.” I mutter. He was ying the nice guy act
“It must be hard carrying twin Lycans.”
“We don''t know if they are Lycans yet!” Raven tells him briskly
“Right. yes, Neah did say that. Out of curiosity, when will you find out?
“Not for a few months.” Raven deres
His dark grey eyes hover on me. “A few months is a long time.”
“There''s nota lot I can do about
that!” I snap at him. Knowing what
he had panned for Jess made.fe
so angry. But he was also overly
interested in the twins. More>
specifically, my unborn twits.

“Hey, there you are!” uses jogging towards us. “Happy Birthday.”
“I thought this was a celebration for winning the war.” Roan states
“It is, but we also celebrate our pack leader''s birthdays. It''s a joint celebration” use tells him
“No one told me it was your birthday.” Roan grins at me. "Happy birthday Neah."
“It''s not something I usually celebrate.” I mutter
He watches-me as Raven and us
talk. He doesn''t speak a single word
anda shiver goes down my spin re.
Jess was a distraction. It was‘the
twing-he wanted. I could feelit i in my
bones. It was why he was. Still here.

“Come on, Roan.” us shouts. “Come tell me about Ashburn city. I''ve always wondered what it was like for you lot. Do you still do pack runs?’
I let out my breath as Roan follows us, answering his questions
“His brother is dead, right?” I quietly ask Raven
“That''s what Dane told Eric.”
“He hasn''t said anything. Not a single word. He would feel it right. He would know that his brother was killed.”
“Possibly. It''s a little different when they are in different packs. There is a good chance he felt something. But there is also just as strong a chance that
he felt nothing. Why?
“I think it was a setup.” My eyes flicker around to make sure we are alone. "He hasn''t mentioned his brother once. And the questions. He is desperate
to know if the twins are Lycans.”
