“Mostly,” he said, placing a kiss on my temple. “A few brave ones are still drinking and talking. I excused myself. I missed you too much to stay longer.”

I smiled at him and he caressed my cheek.

“Let’s go to bed, princess,” he said softly and I nodded.

Dimitri looked up at Ellie and smiled.

“Good night, Ellie,” he said as he took my hand in his. “I will see you tomorrow.”

“Good night,” Ellie said quietly.

Dimitri started leading me out. I looked at Ellie and she gave me a small nod.

I will figure it out.She mind-linked me.Don’t worry.

I gave her a small smile just as Dimitri closed the office door. I focused on him and tried to forget about everything that was going on. He was more important than anything or anyone else.

He smiled and leaned in to kiss me softly. I melted into his arms and my body relaxed immediately.

CHAPTER FORTY-FOUR – Skol Knows

Dimitri’s POV

Skol’s whining woke me up from my peaceful sleep. I groaned and tried to shut him out.

‘No, Dimitri,’he whined.‘Let me out.’

I tried to push him back, but he wouldn’t budge.

‘Let me out,’he growled, trying to push me to shift.‘Let me out.’

What the hell was wrong with him?

I groaned and opened my eyes slowly. It was still dark outside. Maddie was sleeping peacefully next to me.

What the fuck did Skol want?

‘What the hell, Skol?’I mumbled, pulling Maddie closer to me.‘Let me sleep.’

‘No, Dimitri,’he whined again.‘You need to let me out. I can feel him.’

Feel him? What the fuck was he talking about? Was someone here? Was someone on our floor?

I opened my eyes abruptly and looked at the door. I tensed up and prepared myself to jump out of bed. I was going to kill whoever it was. I was going to fucking rip them to pieces. Were they here to hurt Maddie? Were they here to…

‘No, Dimitri,’Skol interrupted my thoughts.‘No one is here. I can feel our pup, Dimitri.’

My heart stopped beating.

‘She is pregnant,’Skol said, his voice trembling with excitement.‘Our mate is pregnant.’

I turned to look at Maddie and I could feel the tears burning the corners of my eyes.

‘Are you sure?’I asked as I removed the blanket from her body.

I looked at her lower belly and I shivered.

‘Completely sure,’Skol said.‘I can feel him.’
