Chapter 145

After the meeting with Sid, my mind was churning as I drove to a nearby clothing store and simply bought a few jeans, tops, and lingerie.

So far, I had only been using what Callahan had bought for me and, though it was still his money, I needed something of my own.

Soon, I would take on some tasks and ask him to pay me a salary or something so that I did not feel I was robbing him and splurging using his card.

For now, I bought a few clothes and hygiene essentials and left the shop in ten minutes after hurriedly paying the cashier.

There was no time to waste. With the knowledge Sid had given me, I needed to plan my next steps carefully.

That involved stepping out of the mansion more often. My fingers gripped the steering wheel harder than necessary, imagining it was Celeste’s neck.

The fact that she had been feeding my father some drug to slow him down and his senses made me want to drive home and just snap her neck.

But it would not be that easy. She had to be exposed before I did that or that will only turn her into a martyr and a villain in the eyes of my pack.

And then there was this Rogue King who was hellbent on making Callahan’s life miserable. I gritted my teeth and drove through the winding streets before reaching the mansion.

I had gotten familiar with the streets and driving around by myself already. That infused me with some confidence.

Smiling to myself, I parked the car in the garage and had barely managed to step out when I ran into something…or someone.

Two strong hands embraced me from behind, and I felt Callahan dip his head to bury it in the crook of my neck.

“I thought you were busy with meetings and work…” I spoke, letting him pull me closer.

I felt him inhale sharply as he answered.

“Do you know how hard these past hours for me have been?” He asked, and I slowly turned around to face him.

Linking my arms behind his neck, I looked him in the eye and asked.

“Were you afraid that I was going to run away and never return again?”

Callahan raised his hand to cup my cheek.

“You scare the hell out of me”

I chuckled, and he narrowed his eyes.
