Chapter Thirty
RILEY
“I can’t believe he still visited my mother; he promisedhe would let her live her life.” | said to Thane,
exasperated.
“She knows nothing about him; that’s all that matters.”
“What if he makes her remember? | don’t want him to cbetween what she has with Gabriel.”
“Think about it this way. For almost two decades he left her; maybe he thought he was trying to protect her, but
that revelation is bound to leave her heartbroken. Do you think she would simply fall back in love with him like it
had been all those years ago?”
“I think not. At least | wouldn't.”
“Exactly.”
A maid walked in with a tray of food.
“Wait.” | called, and she paused. “Pricilla?”
She turned to me, and it was indeed Pricilla.
“Why are you here?” | asked.
“To deliver the food.” She said like that wasn’t obvious.
“You may leave, Pricilla,” Thane says to her, and she gives a bow before dismissing herself.
“She’s one of the maids now?”
NEE
“How did that happen?”
“I think she genuinely wants to be a better person. I didn’t believe her at first, but now, maybe she was being
truthful. Axel’s death had impacted her... positively.” Thane says with a small shrug.
“And what if she has other plans?” | asked; | never really liked Pricilla very much.

yet.”
Everyone deserves a second chance, so | was going to give her the benefit of the doubt.
The garden had becone of my favorite spots in the pack. | stood there; the soft breeze blew through my
hair.
| thought about Ethan, my son; we were finally going to be a family.
“Nice spot.” A female voice called. | would recognize that melodious voice anywhere. Isabella joined me,
standing by my side. “You know Thane wantedout of this pack because of you? | had managed to find one of
the smaller rooms on the last floor.”
| gave her no response; | had chere to enjoy the beautiful view, but of course she just had to interrupt that.
“Also, congratulations; no one toldyou'd delivered the baby.”
“Don’t you have any other places to be, Isabella?”
“No, | wish I did, but here, | have literally nowhere to go and nobody to talk to. Also, would you please not tell
Thane that | spoke to you?”
I snorted. “You really are in no position to ask anything of me.”
She turned to stare at me; | was visibly taller than her by sinches. “I am here to apologize.”
“Are you really?”
“Yes, | am. I'm sorry for trying to kiss Thane. You were right, actually; | had been gone for a long time; things
can’t remain the same.”
“Apology accepted.”
“Really?” she asked with a smile.
“Yes, really.”
| waited for her to leave, but she didn’t; it was clear she had sother thing on her mind.
“I'm curious to know how you met Thane.” She said and there was not a trace of jealousy in her voice. “I mean,
it might be strange considering I was his mate...”
