Chapter 283 The Bond Never Broke

Kael’s POV

I let her be calm and said again, “There is something else I want to tell you. You can get angry at me for that.”

“What is it?” she asked, now entirely normal as if there was nothing that could shock her.

“The person we treated by using your blood, that was Sophia.” I didn’t want to hide things from her now.

She simply looked at me, not sure how to react.

“I had to save her from dying so I could question her, or we would never know the truth. I am sorry that I saved the one who hurt you, but that was needed,” I said firmly. “And I will make sure she is punished for what she did. Death’s just an easy way out for her.”

“Caldwell,” Rafe said, “We will let you punish her. How about that?”

She looked at him. Her sad gaze changed to something else now. Rafe could get her evil side out and she didn’t bother hiding it from him.

He smirked at her as both their gazes met. “I can see you liked the idea.”

But then she quickly averted her gaze and touched her belly. “I don’t want my baby to be in presence of disgusting bitch.”

“We don’t have much time left with that bitch as she would be gone,” Rafe told her. “So you better think twice. Also, you know world is cruel so let our baby learn to deal with the evil. Early lessons are best so no one could dare hurt them later.”

His words seemed to make sense to her and she asked, “Where is she going?”

“To the perfect hell she deserves,” Rafe answered.

“Before that, we will let you see that bitch,” Roman added. “I am sure she would curse her life when she will see you are still with Kael, with us, despite her pathetic plannings.”

Rafe had a deal with Kaizan and we had to hand Sophia over to him. We had to find out why Kaizan was so obsessed with that bitch.

“I think this much is enough for the day,” Liam said as he looked at me.

I understood. She was burdened with so many revelations in just a day. Not good for her.

He looked back at Eira. “That was too much for you. I hope you rest well and make up for it. Your body needs rest and mind needs peace. We want baby to grow healthy, right?”

She nodded.

Liam was leaving after instructing Eira on certain things.

I looked at Roman. “Take care of her,” I said and stood up to accompany Liam outside.

Rafe stood up as well. “I’ll go check on Raven.”

The little guy was playing outside with Fluffy. And then Rafe accompanied him.

As we stepped out of the home, Liam looked at Raven. “He looks more relaxed now. Or it was rare to see him smiling before.”

I hummed. There was indeed a change in Raven. Before, he used to stay in one place while Fluffy played around him and brought back the ball Raven used to throw.

But now, we could see Raven running around and Fluffy trying to block his way. He looked like a happy kid now.

“Even before I didn’t know he is your son, I felt strange resemblance with you,” Liam said. “Even if he did nothing but stayed silent, it reflected the aura like you.”

I was glad to hear it and believe every word Liam said. Even in my heart I used to feel that strange familiarity with him, and even without saying a word, we both used to work in perfect sync like he was a part of me.

And he indeed was.

Maybe I should check my childhood pictures to see if my child version resembled him. If mother was alive, she would have been able to tell it right away.

As we walked ahead, I asked, “Liam, even after I had rejected back then, I believe my bond with her didn’t break.”

“And you could feel everything she had been suffering,” Liam said just what I wanted to say.

“All these years I didn’t know what I suffered every single day was her pain. I used to think it was because of what happened with my family and pack,” I explained, “until that night when Jason tortured her in the stable and I felt it. I understood the reason. But how? Why was the bond still there? Because both of us are not ordinary werewolves?”

Liam hummed. “A pair of mates like you and her are like something happening once in a million chances. There can be many top tier Alphas like you, but a shewolf like hers exists only one at a time. So you can understand how rare the bond is. Rare makes it strongest and undeniable. You can never break it unless one of you dies. You have to live with it until the last breath you take.”

Now I think about it, I am glad the bond didn’t break. That way she wasn’t suffering alone. I was there to share her pain.

Liam left, while I went to Raven. It’s the first day when I got to know he was my son and I wished to spend every moment with him to make up for the past five years.

I picked him in my arms and tossed him in air and caught him again. He was happy and smiled. I wished I could hear him laugh. Maybe soon.

I hoped I could do the same with Eira and make up for that lost time, but she might not like it yet.

I should give her more time to accept me entirely after the pain I had caused her.

I could see she was falling for Roman. And as a top tier Alpha, I sure felt jealous, but the thought of her happiness and Roman being my mate brother made it a little easy for me to swallow that jealousy and bitterness.

What I couldn’t give her, Roman could.

She had the right to experience what she had missed on, that included falling in love. And for now, that person for her was Roman.

I will wait for her.

Until then, I will spend that time with my son and be a good father that he deserved to have.
