His comment made me pause as it reminded me of a time in the not–so–distant past when he hid things from me for no good reason.
“You’re not doing that again, are you?” I asked with furrowed brows. His expression mirrored mine.
“Doing what?” He wiped the corner of his mouth as I fought down the horn dog in me that found that
erotic.
“You’re not back to keeping secrets from me, are you?” was ridiculous to ask because, from the look of things, he was, Someone all the way in the Silver Moon pack had to call to inform me of my life being in danger but my mate who was right beside me already knew but didn’t bother telling me.
Should I really bother you with the news of some nitwits plotting nonsense?” His frown deepened as did
mine.
Here we go again.
“I’ve told you I don’t enjoy being left out of the loop,” I grumbled, my head spinning. “First, it was Avalon seducing you and now this – I spread my arms as if the remnants of food on the table before me were the problem.
“That silly girl pulling a silly trick is nothing.” He shrugged. My eyes narrowed and my heart sped up. I counted to five, took deep breaths, but my heart beat didn’t slow, rather it beat faster.
“How would you react if you found out Aristo tried to get into my pants and I didn’t tell you!?” I shouted so loudly, he flinched. My chest heaved and his face darkened and he pressed his lips together, emitting a small growl.
“If there’s one person in this world” He started and then he paused, a frown creasing his brows. “I was going to say Aristo knows better but I realize he doesn’t. He pursed his lips, drumming his fingers on his desk.
“That’s not the point!” I exclaimed but my words were weak, overfeeding making me drowsy.
“You’re pregnant, Sia,” Cahir said in a calm voice. “Last week the doctor said your blood pressure rose. Is it sensible to worry you with a stupid girl’s prank and the headaches of an Alpha?” He asked.
“I want to know if my life is in danger,” I bit out. “And the Alpha’s headaches are my headaches too. I’m your Luna.” I felt he finally acknowledged me but it seemed he didn’t. Would I have to fight this battle until
the end?
An Alpha’s word was law but Cahir was more to me than my Alpha. He was my mate, my other half. I wanted to know his business the same way he knew mine.
And what a fine Luna you are.” He got out of his seat and came to perch on the handle of mine. “You already know the issue with the Greysons. They refused to apologize for insulting my Luna and have teamed up with the Carsons who I brought in as sinners to serve the pack as restitution.”
“That’s why I am in danger?” The Carsons and Greysons had issues with Cahir now thanks to me. No it wasn’t my fault. They were just bullies who targeted the wrong person.

“I’m the danger, belle,” Cabir said in all seriousness. They will target anyone beside me as a way of getting to me. That’s why I have to act now to make a safe place for our child. Those words had no business warming my heart the way they did.
So Greyson and Carson are the insiders that Kade spoke about?” He’d said someone important was plotting against me so that had to be Greyson. “Is Greyson the figurehead?” I asked with a frown. He had the money so he should be.
“He is not.” I blinked at Cahir’s statement. “I haven’t figured out their leader yet.” He didn’t even sound bothered as he said that. “There a few Alphas outside the park who have tried many times to bring me to my knees. They have failed at every attempt but now, they will try to use you. There are also individuals and families in this pack that share their sentiments. Alpha Warren wants to take back the healer from his pack but his son isn’t showing as much interest as he used to in stealing someone else’s mate so he has deemed him incompetent and is secretly planning to overthrow him. His daughter is here to seduce my beta and gather information on you.”
It was a lot that he blurted out all at once as if it was no big deal. Perhaps to a man like Cahir Armani, plots like these weren’t new but to a small fry like me who had only ever had to deal with bullying, I couldn’t think of what to do in the face of people trying to use me against my mate.
“There are a lot of people that want to harm me.” I swallowed. Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
“Don’t worry, I won’t let them.” He gave me a small smile. “There are a lot of people but they all have their own selfish goals so they’re bound to fail sooner or later. Usually, I would watch them fall over themselves and make enemies out of themselves but I am in a hurry to get rid of them now so I can’t do that.”
“So what do you plan on doing?”
Hearing my life was in danger put me on edge but the way Cahir spoke of the matter, it felt small and insignificant, easing my worries. A part of me knew he made it sound small and insignificant for my sake, to make sure I didn’t worry over it, but it worked. I felt a lot more relaxed now that I spoke to him than I did after receiving Kade’s call.
“I am going to hasten them,” he said with a shrug. “Mr Carson’s wife and daughter are in the dungeons. Dorian Greyson is missing he’s in the dungeons too. The Carsons and Greysons are going to do something out of desperation soon. I’ll be rounding up the spies around me as well to hasten them further.”
“What happens when they’re hastened?” I asked.
“They feel threatened, they make a move, and then I wipe them all out. If I do it in any other order. T accused of being a tyrant, some wicked devil.” He sounded put off.

“What if –” I swallowed at the possibility opening up to me. “What if things don’t go as planned?”
–
“I use brute force. These games waiting to first be struck before I make a move are not my style but well
I’m mated now and about to be a father. A tyrant’s daughter isn’t an appealing title.”
“What if it’s a boy?” I muttered. The baby was a boy. I felt it but he refused to acknowledge it. He wanted a girl for reasons he didn’t disclose but we were having a boy!
“It’s a girl.” he said as if it was final. His words were always final but not here. He wasn’t the goddess after all.
-You sound so certain,” I muttered. “Of everything. Isn’t it dangerous to be so arrogant while dealing with
