Lorraine POV
When Amelia said that Charles had rescued her from the people who should have protected her hope blooms in my chest. I love my mate and I hated the choice he made. I will always stand by Lincoln, but I pray that Charles returns with him. That he has truly made things right. It’s Lincoln’s decision but I know my son’s heart. “Lorraine, I know that Lincoln wants to forgive his father.” She wraps me in a hug and I thank the goddess again for giving this woman to my son. “How are you feeling Amelia?” “Honestly I’m fine.” “Little bean has been moving all over the place all afternoon despite everything that’s been happening.” I lay my hand on her belly and I feel him kick against my hand.

pack but I need more of an explanation to bring all the Elders.” “Elder Thomas has aligned himself with that ba**ard Atlas and attempted to take my Luna again today.” He growls “we are on our way.” I hang up before I turn to Amelia and Michael. “I need to get the book with my numbers from my office.” “I have one more call to make before we prepare for the Elders arrival.” They follow me upstairs and once we are in the office, I dial the number while the phone is on
before you go to meet the goddess and pay for your crimes.”. “I’m sure Thomas is listening and if not, you can let him know that he will pay just as you will.” “You really believe that I am
