Chapter 70

4 Find Our Place

Calliope POV

We reach the human city and pull into the parking lot of a coffee shop. I look over at my mother and I can’t read her face. “Mom” I say and she turns pulling me into a hug. “Thank you Calliope. You are so strong. I’m sorry” she starts to say and I stop her. “What are you sorry for?” “I should have been strong enough to fight my father when he insisted I mate Mateo. I should have left your father when I knew he was never going to love me.” I pull back “don’t do that. You are stronger than any woman I know. You sacrificed your own happiness to protect me from the vile things he was doing. I know based on what I saw today this isn’t new behavior for that ba**ard.” She laughs and the brightness actually reaches her eyes. I wish I had realized how unhappy she really was before today. “You deserve to be happy, mother. This isn’t about me. You don’t owe me an apology. You did nothing wrong.” I can tell she doesn’t think she deserves to be happy. “What are we going to do now, Calliope? Your father isn’t going to let this go.” She reaches into the bag she packed and pulls out a wad of money. “Mom, how much is there?” “A few thousand dollars but it won’t last long.” She is right about that. “Let’s go in and have something to eat before we find a hotel to stay in for a night or two. I don’t care if we have to live among humans. You are never going back to him.” She reaches up and touches the spot where he marked her. She brushes her fingers over it and smiles. “It is already starting to fade.”

knows we are wolves.” She indiscreetly looks before she looks back at me. “It’s alright, she has a pup. She isn’t going to confront us with her pup.” I hope my mother’s right. A few seconds later, she leads the little girl to a table near ours. “Calliope, I don’t believe she is a threat”, Aurora says. Aurora isn’t an average wolf. She can feel the emotions of others. A gift given to her and me by the goddess. My father has never even seen Aurora or asked about my wolf so he has no idea. “My name is Sarah, what’s yours,” a little voice brings me out of my thoughts. “Sarah, don’t bother the ladies” the woman says to the little girl. “It’s no bother. My name is Calliope and

Alpha Mateo POV

to bring Calliope back to my office, I take a seat at my desk. I will be damned if any woman will speak to me like that. After fifteen minutes, I start to lose my patience. I stand and head toward the door. I reach for the handle when a pain like I’ve never known almost knocks me off my feet. “That b**ch you chose is breaking the bond with us”, Dante growls. I manage to get my bearings. “Bradford, you are to have every warrior out looking for my Luna and daughter,” I link him. “What’s happening Alpha?” “Do what I f**king ordered now.” I break the link and head downstairs. As soon as I’m outside, I take a deep breath to scent the

fault for taking her a** as our mate.” I focus on running to reach the SUV. Her scent is getting stronger as we run. We stay in the woods. As we run I realize where she is going. That b**ch thinks she can hide from me in the human city. She is very wrong. I may not be able to walk in as Dante, but I will find them both. I don’t care about that ba**ard Lincoln.
