Chapter 0019 "Eamon!" I yell as my brother an "I need help getting this Cara Wilson out of my way. She's nothing but trouble!" "What? Lilia, I'm in the world of a meeting and you call about this? Sorry, I'm swamped with work, I can't help you." The line goes dead.
Eamon had the nerve to hang up on He's never treatedlike this! Normally he'd do anything his baby sister asks. Maybe Cara's gotten to him, too... this is turning into a much bigger problem.
I need to find someone else. Besides Eamon, I have five other brothers! My hands are shaking with rising anger as I dial another one of my brothers. Surely, I can get at least ONE of them to helpChapter 14 Cara's POV I'll do anything to protest my unborn baby. Even if that means pretending to be Alaric's secret office mistress again.

He's been so busy with work that we haven't spent that much ttogether at the apartment like we used to He's been takingout. We went back to The Hideout, and tried a few other restaurants, too. It's been... almost nice. I might even say it's been peaceful. Until today Alaric cback to the apartment and finally took a look around. I cleared out all of my stuff a while ago, planning to leave DarkWood and find a new pack That's still the plan, but Alaric's renewed interest in keepingas a mistress has been a bit of a setback.
"Where are all of your things?!" He was furious, "You said I could leave the pack after the wedding was over. I was just preparing-I'm trying to get him to see reason, but he's far too upset for that.
"You can leave when I says you can leave!!" He was the picture of an Alpha male, refusing to accept any ideas except his own. "I'm not done with you yet!" "Yes. Alpha King." I say submissively, trying a new tactic. Logic clearly isn't working. I just need him to calm down.
If he thinks he has the upper hand for now, then so be it.
Alaric eyes me, like he's trying to decipher me, before nodding.
"Good" Just before he walks off to resworking, he looks back at me, "I'll even I feel sick. And not only because I'm pregnant.
"I'll even raise your salary to sweeten the deal" Truth is, I really do need the money now. If I'm going to find a new pack and start a new life, if I'm going to provide a nice and stable life for my child, then I need as much money as I can get. Alaric and Lilia have both calleda gold digger more times than I can count by now. It was never even true, I had debts to pay, that much was true. Grandmother's medical expenses were massive. I had to go to Alaric's father, the last Alpha King, more times than I'd care to admit asking for financial assistance. But Grandmother had been the cook for the entire pack house. She wasn't just important to me, she was important to all of Pack DarkWood.
That's why Alaric's father had paidso handsomely over the years.

But I'm proud to say I earned every single penny I made by working hard to support the padk And Grandmother's medical bills were now finally all paid. Just in tfor me, I need more money.
I couldn't catch a break.
"Cara, cto me." Alaris commands later once he returns from work.
I knew what he wanted. He was in the bedroom, waiting forto bring him pleasure.
But I was nervous about the baby inside me. What if Alari got too rough? What if the baby got hurt? "I can'). The doctor still hash clearedfor that kind of activity," I tell him.
