Chapter 507
“He will if you don’t give him a reason not to. You’ve been his informant for a long time. Right now, he doesn’t know you’ve been caught. So, he has no reason to doubt you p>
I picked up the phone from her lap. “You’re wasting time, Marta. We need him by nightfall p>
Putting the phone to her face, it unlocked with her ID. I checked for Caden’s number.
Once again, Jaris reminded her of the dangers of deviating from the plan. I think he made her scared enough.
Finally, I placed the call, putting it on speaker.
“Yes?” his voice was raspy.
“Caden. What have you been doing p>
Gone was the whimpering Marta. This was the arrogant one we all knew. The lady was an actress.
“We had a deal. I went through so much trouble and risk because you convinced me it’d get me what I wanted. Can you explain how Lyric managed to escape you again p>
“If I were you, I’d watch my tone. I’m also upset Lyric escaped. She fucking killed one of my men p>
I stiffened. Well, if I hadn’t killed Corey, he would’ve revealed my intentions to Caden.
“I’m trying my best. I’ll find her. But just so you know, your beloved will be suffering for it p>
“Well, obviously you’ve not been trying hard enough because they’re trying to elope! I just overheard Jaris asking his Beta to prepare the jet. He’s also taking some of his belongings with him. I can’t believe he’s ready to leave everything behind and run away with her p>
Caden’s response was delayed, possibly by shock.

“What do you mean they’re trying to elope? Is Lyric there with you p>
“Of course, he wouldn’t bring her here. She’d have me to contend with. But I know where he’s hiding her. If you let him take her away, you’ll lose her forever. Then you’ll p>
“Stop talking and send me the stupid location p>
I huffed in my head. Such toxicity.
“I’ll text it p>
I ended the call, then proceeded to text the location of the cabin to him. Hopefully, everything went as planned.
The location was a different cabin far from where Marta was.
I got there early enough to stay in position and waited for the monster to show up.
The sky darkened. My legs were cold, and my stomach churned with unease. Tonight was meant to be a historic one for me. For the first time, I’d fight for my future, my kids, and the man I loved. If everything went as planned, tonight was going to mark a new beginning.
He didn’t disappoint. The monster did come.
I was seated on the pavement outside the house, my legs calmly crossed and my expression calm even as I saw them approach. They came in three cars. Men rushed out with their claws and fangs bare, some carrying weapons. All of these for Jaris?
Caden took his time leaving the car. His eyes were bloodshot as they locked onto mine.
