Chapter 140

Liam looks murderous. His brows furrow and his canines actually drop.

Then he shakes his head and seems to rein his wolf back in.

He steps back and smiles at me. “You’re right. This does change things.” He shakes his head again,

like he can’t believe it. “I’ve lived so long with war and this idea of having to conquer Pack Rathborn…

it’s hard to consider that there can really be peace.”

“I know what you mean. I suspect this will take a lot of getting used to.”

“Wow. Uh, Leah, this is great news. Congratulations!”

He hugs me.

When he draws back, his eyes mist. “You’re having a baby!”

He hugs me again.

This.

This is the reaction I’d hoped for-the acceptance and love.

The hope.

Because that is our only way forward. If we can’t believe in a better future, there is no

way we’ll ever be able to obtain one.

“You’re going to be an uncle!”

He laughs but it sounds more like a choke. “I can’t believe it.”

“It took me a minute too.”

“Leah… what I said before…it wasn’t to hurt you. You are my only family in this world and I love you.

You deserve to be treated better. You deserve only goodness.”

A lump rises in

my throat.

You’re too kind. You’re my Alpha. I’ll fight for you to my last breath.”

My heart swells.

He means it.

His words may have been coarse, but his heart is in the right place. And, “I’ts okay, Liam. I’d always

prefer to hear the truth.” I might not like how he said it, but “I appreciate that you told me.”

He nods solemnly. Then his gaze dips to my stomach.

“Do

you need anything? When was the last time you ate? Can I get you some orange juice? That’s what

pregnant women need, right? Folic acid or something…”

“I’m good-”

“I’ll go get some.” He starts out of the room.

“Liam, wait! I’m fine.”

pauses and glances back at me. “You’re our future, Leah.” He lowers his voice. “Your child is the future

of our pack. I won’t be long,” he promises.

I’m pretty sure there is OJ downstairs in the cafe.

So I just sit down when he rushes out of this computer lab.

I feel pummeled.

Liam didn’t pull his punches at all, and while I’d always want someone to be honest with me, I’m not

sure I can forget some of the more hurtful things he said.

Is Aaron only using me? Am I so discardable?

What’s worse… what if Liam’s right? What if I have been deluding myself all along

about this?
