Chapter 90
24 It’s Time to Act
Calliope POV
I release Anthony and turn to see Oliver’s eyes are black. “Mate” Anthony says and I smile. Oliver shifts and runs through the trees. My heart breaks when I see Anthony’s face. I grab his arm “I’ll talk to him.” I turn back to Carter. “Carter, this is Anthony. He is a friend and can be trusted. I’m going to talk to Oliver and then I need to speak to you and Abigale.” He smiles and nods. I shift and Aurora takes off following Oliver’s scent. We reach the training field and Oliver is sitting on the bench. I shift and walk toward him. His head is resting in his hands. “Oliver” I say his name and when he picks his head up I can see he is fighting back tears. I sit next to him. “I don’t understand. How can he be my mate?” “What did you expect your mate to be like?” “A woman” he says. I rub circles on his back. “What qualities did you hope they would have?” He looks at me deep in thought for a moment before he finally answers. “I had hoped my mate would be loyal, kind, strong, and funny.” “I know you don’t want to hear this but Anthony is all of those things. I won’t tell you what you should do, Oliver, because my opinion doesn’t matter, but I think you should really think about what you do next.”
before he pulls me into a hug. I hear a growl and it makes me smile. When I pull back, I turn to see Anthony with an embarrassed look on his face. “I’m going to give you guys some time to talk. I need to go discuss things with Carter” I say to Oliver and he nods. I stand walking toward Anthony. “I’m sorry for growling at you, Calliope.” “You don’t need to be sorry. Go talk to your mate and be patient.” He nods and walks past me. I head for Carter and Abigale’s cottage. I need to discuss what Aurora showed me about Bradford and Julie. Thoughts about the pup are whirling around my mind but I push them aside for right now. I haven’t found my mate and I won’t be having a pup till I do. I reach the cottage and knock. The door swings open and Abigale is smiling at me. She pulls me into a hug. “Thank
out safely.” “Honestly, I know that Lily offered to help me should I need it and I’m going to take her up on it. There is no need to put anyone at risk for this rescue mission. My father will
says and when I open my eyes again, we are standing inside the cell. Just as it was in my vision, Bradford is holding onto Julie and they both have their eyes closed. I’m just about to turn to him when I hear a growl. I turn to see a guard trying to find the key to get to us. Lily waves her hand knocking him against the wall. “Calliope, what the hell are you doing here” Bradford asks. “We are saving you and your mate from my ba**ard of a father.” They both rush to their feet
and I’m glad that they are all safe. “Mom and dad, this is Oliver, my mate.” Oliver walks toward him and takes his hand. I look at Bradford and his face is unreadable. He steps in front of Oliver and pulls him into a hug. The tension in the room from moments ago fades away. “Welcome to our family, son”, Bradford says before Julie hugs Oliver. I
Alpha Mateo POV
I turn on the guard who is getting to his feet. “You let them escape with my prisoners.” “Alpha the witch” he starts to say but I want none of his excuses. I grab him, breaking his neck. I rush back upstairs to my room to grab my phone. The omega was smart enough to leave or she would be suffering the same fate as that worthless warrior. I dial that witches f**king number and she picks up on the second ring. “Get your
