His kid would always come first—I got that. It didn’t hurt me; not really.
I mean, I’d never expected to find myself mated to someone with a kid. That would take some serious getting used to. But Kai and I weren’t together yet, and I didn’t even know if he’d want that. So there was no point in worrying about it.
Or hoping for anything in particular.
I grabbed Kai’s phone off the bathroom floor, and grimaced when I saw all the missed calls.
Yikes.
Digging my phone out of my bed took a few minutes, and my grimace deepened when I saw my screen.
Even more missed calls than Kai had.
Sheesh.
I dialed Morgan’s number as I threw a pair of clothes into a duffel bag, just in case I ended up staying the night at Kai’s place.
She answered while I was walking down the stairs.
“What happened?” she demanded “How long have you been puking for?”
I let out a slow breath. “A while. I’m sorry I didn’t tell you.”
“I’m going to kick your ass,” she practically snarled at me. “I’ll be at your place in five minutes. We’re going back to Mist Valley.”
“I can’t,” I said.
“You can, andwill.”
“No, Morgan. I…” I let out a puff of air. “Kai’s eyes went red, and he shifted. His blood healed me. We’re fated.”
The line went dead.
Just…
Dead.
“Hello?” I prodded, as I tugged the door to the garage open.
“You’re mates withKai?” she finally asked.
“Yeah,” I admitted. “I just picked up his kid from the park. I was calling you for the pack’s location, so I can meet you there. Lucas seems scared.”
Another long, tense moment of silence followed.
“Well, shit,” she finally said.
“No kidding.” I slid back into the car, flashing the wolves a tight smile as I tossed my duffel bag into the back seat. “Can you send it to me?”
“Sure. I, uh, might have called a bunch of single men and told them to meet at your place, though,” she admitted.
I groaned. “Seriously?”
“You were dying,” she protested.
“I know. I already drank from all of them, though. I’ve been eating four or five times a day these last few weeks.”
And puking even more, but I didn’t say that part.
