Chapter 0139
After I dropped Cara off at her room, I went to speak to my father. He is as concerned as I am about
the potential for a coming war that Ailduin referenced. We will have to meet with our allies and
determine if there is anything we have overlooked. While it is possible that this is the first time that two
Guardians have actually been fated mates, as werewolves, we are a violent species, constantly fighting
for power, land, strength. It makes sense that the Moon Goddess knew that a war was coming and was
preparing us for it.
The next morning at breakfast, we begin making preparations to head home when Clint surprises us
all. “Ailduin has invited me to stay and I’m going to take him up on his offer.”
“What do you mean? For how long?” Cara asked.
“He would like to chronicle the lives of your mother and I, or more specifically, Andra and Donovan. I
have decided to stay and help to put that information into history. Your mother deserved that. She
deserved to be recognized for what she did.”
“As do you.” My father chimes in. I had noticed that while Clint was speaking Ailduin was watching my
father. Did he still think my father would deny Clint staying here? I guess given his history, he would.
But I know my father. He loves Clint like a brother and Cara like a daughter. He will treat them as
family, not as a commodity to hold on to for his own gain. My father is an honorable man.
My father turns to Ailduin. “If Clint becomes too humble, let me know, I’ll tell you the real story of what
he did.” Ailduin nods.
Clint rolls his wheelchair over to Cara. “You’re nearly an adult and I know you can take care of yourself,
but Anders will be checking in on you.” He looks over at me. “And I know Rik will be looking after you
as well.” I nod at him. Of course I will. I won’t let anything happen to my mate.
“How long will you be gone?” She asks him. I can hear her voice trembling a little.
“As long as it takes, but I will definitely be home for your birthday. I expect you to continue to train, go to
school and make good grades.”
“Of course dad.” She hugs him and we grab our bags, ready to leave. We thank Ailduin, my father
reiterating that we would like to rebuild our alliance. I think this weekend has gone a long way towards
getting there.
Since Clint drove to the fae land, we will have to run home. It’s not a big deal
except that we have our bags. Ailduin has a guard drive us to the old, rickety looking gate that we
entered through. Once we pass through the gate, the glamor returns and it looks like a forest filled with
trees surrounded by a fence.
We shift and begin our journey. I’m pleasantly surprised that Artemis is able to easily keep up with us
during the long trek home. She seems to be back at full strength. We howl our arrival just before
crossing the borders and head straight to the pack house. My father disappears and I don’t expect to
see him or my mother again for the rest of the night. We’ve arrived in time for lunch and as we are
getting dressed, I hear Cara’s stomach growl.
“Let’s eat, then we can head over to your house. Or would you rather stay here while your father is
gone?” I ask her.
She looks around the pack house. “I think I’d rather stay at my house, if you don’t mind.”
“I don’t mind, but I’m going to tell you. I don’t like you being there alone, so I’ll be staying with you.” Her
beautiful smile draws me in and I wrap my arms around her waist.novelbin
“Is that code for you plan on working your way into my bed Alpha?”
I kiss her nose. “Nope. I know you’re waiting for your mate and I will respect that. Now, if you choose to
spend the night with me on the couch…” I smile at her before pulling her into the dining hall.
