He shrugged his shoulders.
"I knew Dad would cback, but I didn't think you would take," he admitted. "But I'm glad you're here. Doctor Pierce said I can leave later today because my vitals are good." Eliza nodded, a fond look in her eyes.
"It's true. He seems to be a lot better after getting a full night of rest. His wolf is very strong and will need a strong Alpha to train him. It's a good thing his father is the strongest Alpha in the world." "Is there anything else we need to know?" Gavin asked; my ears perked when he said the word "we." Was he talking aboutand him? Like we were an actual couple, and Matt was our son.
My heart swelled at the very thought; my wolf seemed content with the thought as well, solidifying my growing feelings for Gavin. I knew at this moment that it wasn't just a gbetween us... these feelings weren't lust- filled... I had real feelings for him.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtI was falling in love with him.
"As I said yesterday, try not to trigger his wolf's anger, and you should be okay for right now," Eliza told him. He nodded.
Before any more words could be said, Gavin's phone started to ring. He sighed as he pulled his phone out of his pocket and glanced at the screen. His frown deepened when he saw who was calling. He turned his back on Matt as he spoke in a low voice.
"This is not a good time, Irene," he said; Matt's ears perked, and my heart dropped at the sound of her name. Gavin's brows furrowed as he listened to what she was saying on the other end. I could tell it was a lot, and from the intensity of her voice on his phone's speaker, I knew whatever was wrong, it was serious. She was being frantic, and it madeworry for her. "What are you talking about?" Gavin asked, his tone darkening.
Now my brows were furrowing, there was actual concern in his tone as he spoke and on his face. His expression changed completely.
"On my way," he said just as he hung up the phone.
"What's going on?" I asked.
He typed a message on his phone, and once he pressed send, he shoved his phone back into his pocket.
"We need to get back to the villa," he toldand then he turned to Matt. "Taylor will be here once you're ready to be discharged. He'll take you home." Matt frowned.
"You're leaving?" He asked, sounding a bit gutted; I was in a mix of feeling bad about leaving him, and wondering what was happening back at the villa.
"I'm sorry, but yes," Gavin said, running his fingers through his hair. "There's an emergency at hthat I need to tend to." "I can always stay with him if needed," I suggested, keeping my tone low for Gavin's ears alone.
"I'd rather you cwith me," he told me. "I think I'm going to need you for this." I raised my brows a him, but I didn't argue, I just nodded, my cheeks slightly flushed. It was nice that he needed me.

car ride back to the villa was quiet My heart was hammering in my chest@s I wondered what was going on. He wouldn't tellhe kept saying we meehle would talk once we were back at the villa, and I wasn't about to argue with him, especially when he was like this.
Whatever it was, I knew it had something to do with Irene.
I knew at one point, when Gavin refused to give her permission to court Ethan, that she hurther, threatened to hurt herself. I wondered if she actually did hurt herself now that she's single. I was nervous to find out for sure what was going on.
Gavin parked the car and waited forto get out of the car before he took the lead and went straight towards the front door.
Once we were inside, he called out Irene's name.
"She's in the parlor," Alex said, his face stoic and hard to read.
Gavin nodded at him, and we went towards the parlor. Once we got inside, we both completely froze, and my face went pale.
