CHAPTER 140

AMELIA’S P.O.V

I tried to hide the small smile on my face as we made our way in. She held onto my hand and I was greeted with the smell of paper and ink.

“Thank you, you didn’t have to do that for me,” I whispered. “I would have just left. I am truly grateful.”

“Please, you are Kaden’s mate, I would do anything for you,” I tried not to let my disappointment show but she saw it. “Ah, I can see that look. You are doubting your relationship after everything that happened.”

“You heard about it?”

“Darling, the entire pack knows about it.”

I buried my face in my hands in embarrassment. I wanted the ground to open up and swallow me. It was bad enough that a few people knew but knowing that everyone knew was even worse.
