Chapter 0336 wanted was to be the Alpha of the Redmoon pack .


    She wished that Judy was around so she could talk to her … she wanted to know what else Judy knew because Irene wasnt stupid ; she knew that Judy knew more than what she let on .


    But she also felt bad for taking her anger and frustrations out on Judy .


    The things she had done ….


    Her father would never forgive her if he knew .


    Ste was waiting at the coffee shop when Irene arrived .


    The first thing she noticed was how pale her face was, the second thing was the dark circles under her eyes .


    It was clear Ste had barely slept since thest time they spoke .


    Irene hadnt really slept either .


    Ethan had tried to have sex with her only once this past week and Ierne shut him down , iming she wasnt in the mood .


    She didnt even want him sleeping in her bed , so he went home to sleep and barely spoke to her thesest few days .


    Typically , she would have spent time on wedding nning , but she couldnt bring herself to do so .


    She stared down at the ring on her finger … she knew she would have to take it off soon , but something in her heart refused to let go of the one man she loved with all her heart .


    It was going to be a difficult pill to swallow , but she knew there wouldnt be a wedding .


    Thank you for meeting with me again , Irene said , taking a seat in front of Ste in the same booth they sat inst time .


    This time , neither of them ordered anything .


    Irene assumed that Ste also couldnt stomach anything as well .


    Ste nodded , her eyes clouded and fixed on the table in front of her .


    Chapter 0337 Chapter 0337  Something told me I didnt have a choice , she said softly .


    You managed to find my apartment .


    It scared me .


    Ste didnt give Irene her phone number thest time the met ; actually , Irene had one of her men track and find Ste on their own time .


    It didnt take them long to find the rundown apartment that she lived in within the Redmoon pack .


    Irene was disgusted when she saw the pictures her men sent her of the apartment .


    That was no ce to raise a baby .


    She had her men give Ste a note , requesting that she met with her at the same coffee shop with a date and a time .


    A part of her didnt think that Ste would show up , but she was pleased that she did .


    Im sorry I had to track you down like that , Irene told her She shrugged one shoulder .


    I thought it was Ethan who hired them to find me at first .


    After I told you everything that happened , I assumed you went to him and now hes after me , she whispered , tears filling her eyes .


    Her bottom lip trembled .


    Irene could see that she was afraid .


    It made her stomach clench ; Ethan must have threatened her , which made Ste even more afraid of him .


    Im not going to hurt you , she told Ste , her voice calmer than she felt .


    Im sorry that my fiancé had hurt you and scared you .


    I hadnt told him about our talks yet .


    He doesnt know that I know anything .


    Ste sniffled and nodded .


    She reached into her purse and pulled out a piece of paper .


    She unfolded it and slid it across the table .


    Irenes breath got caught in her throat .


    This is my baby , she whispered softly .


    It was Stes first ultrasound .


    She hadnt got the abortion like Ethan wanted and , in a way , Irene was relieved by that .


    She didnt want this innocent baby to lose its life because of Ethans carelessness .


    But at the same time , what kind of life could that baby have ? Living in hiding within the Redmoon pack in that rundown apartment building ? It wasnt safe for either of them , which made this meeting necessary .


    How far along are you ? Irene asked , staring at the picture .


    A month , she whispered .


    I hadnt been with anyone else in almost a year .


    Its definitely his , but once Im further along , I can take a paternity test to know for sure .


    Irene shook her head .


    I believe you .


    Its not necessary , she said softly .


    Ste blinked away the tears and looked up at her .


    Really ? She asked .


    Chapter 0337 Irene nodded and reached her hand out to hold onto Stes Im sorry this is happening to you .


    I wish there was something I could say to make things better .


    Ethan was wrong for this , and he shouldnt have threatened you .


    More tears spilled out of Stes eyes ; Irene wanted to cry too , but she kept a strongposure .


    It isnt your fault .


    You were kind .


    Far kinder than I would have been .


    Im sorry I ran from you at first , she whispered .


    Irene shook her head , not wanting her to feel bad .


    None of this was her fault and she wouldnt allow her to me herself .


    It was Ethans fault .


    She was determined to make things right , for this girl , for Judy , and for herself .


    They were all victims of Ethan , and it ended with Irene .


    Irene pulled her hands away and reached into her purse .


    She pulled out a thick envelope and slid it across the table towards Ste .


    Stes brows knitted together .


    What is this ? She asked , grabbing the envelope .


    Open it , Irene said simply .


    Ste carefully opened the envelope , and her breath hitched .


    It was a huge wad of cash ; there had to be thousands of dors in cash if not a million .


    W … what is this ? she asked , ncing up at Irenes serious face .


    Its money , Irene answered , raising her right brow .


    Its for you .


    But … why ? Ste asked , releasing the money as if it had burned her .


    It fell to the table .


    Im not getting an abortion .


    I made up my mind already .


    She put her hands on her belly protectively .


    I want to keep him or her .


    They are my baby and- Its not for an abortion , Irene told her , cutting her off .


    She held up her hand to keep her from saying anything more .


    Its so you can raise your baby without worry .


    Its enough money to get you out of here .


    You can leave this pack and go to another .


    You can find a decent ce to live and raise your baby without worry .


    Ethan will never find you .


    Stes eyes grew wide.


    What ? Ste whispered after a beat of silence .


    Irene reached over and grabbed her hands again , looking deep into her eyes as she spoke her next words slowly and carefully .


    Leave Redmoon … get as far away from here as possible and raise your baby , Ste .


    Im giving you an out .


    Take it .


    And with those words left in the air , Irene shouldered her purse , stood to her feet , and walked away without looking back .
