LOVE ME AGAIN MATE By Katie Spheres

Chapter 64



Chapter 64

Ana.

The room remains silent when they leave and I sigh staring down at Liam. He still has his face hidden and I don’t know why he is behaving this way.

“He can sense the stress you know. Every child feels safe with their mother” Dad says, softly staring at us and I k*ss my baby’s head. How ironic? My mother wants me dead.

“I am sorry she did that to you, baby. I should have protected you but I f**king laid there uselessly” Dad whispers in exasperation, as he stares down deep in thought. I can’t imagine what is going through his mind. “It was not your fault Dad. I don’t blame you”

“But I should have been able to do something, baby. If something happened to you I…I..” Noah covers his eyes with his palms and sniffles. With a heavy heart, I walk to my dad and drape one arm around him. “It’s our duty as parents to protect our kids, not harm them. I am sorry she hurt you, baby. I will never let her do that to you again” Dad lifts his face to look at me and my heart breaks at his wet and red eyes.

Liam senses the sour mood too, because he wiggles from my arms, and when I let him down, he lifts his arms for my dad to pick him up. Given the chance, I wrap my arms around Dad and tightly embrace him.,

It’s not his fault that his mate is a b*tch. We can’t change who people are.

“She will pay for hurting us. It’s just a matter of time” I whisper running my hands through his hair. He needs a shave. At least he is clean. compared to before.

“Don’t be sad, Grandpa, I will protect you too” Liam wraps his little hands. around my dad’s n*eck and I chuckle at his little gesture. He sure

understands what is going on.

“I know my little prince, no one will touch me when you are here” Dad answers pulling Liam to himself and I hold them both. We remain silent and after a minute or so, I remember they haven’t eaten yet.

*I will go make you something to eat. You also need your medicine, Dad” I pull away and my son does the same, and quickly gets off my dad’s lap. Liam trots to my side and grips my hand with his.

Goddess! Did something happen to my son when we left him with Alpha

Edward? Or maybe he overheard people talk about our kidnap or supposed death. It must be the reason he is this scared.

“Baby?,” I lift my son from the ground and he still has the same look. He appears uneasy and his heartbeat is fast. “Baby, mommy is going nowhere, okay? I am going to stay with you until you are big like daddy, yeah?” I coo, and his eyes instantly light up.

“And my baby is going to be super strong and he will protect mommy always, Is that right?” I k*ss his cheek and he giggles. Thats it.

“Yes, mommy. I will be super strong” Liam exclaims, lifting his little hands in the air.

After preparing a couple of dishes with the company of my father and son, we settle around the small dining table and start eating. It makes me happy watching my father with etiquette like he used to do in the palace. The man is hungry.

“Eat some more” I add more meat to my dad’s plate when he finishes his food. He has gone days without eating and he needs the strength.

“Thank you sweetheart” He gratefully says, and resumes the second plate. “I want more too” Liam whines and I chuckle giving him more food even though he hasn’t eaten much.

“Of course baby” I feed my son and when he is full, he tiredly falls asleep in my arms.

“Can you feel your wolf?” I ask my dad after putting Liam in bed.

“Not yet dear, but I am not as weak as before” I nod clearing the table and after doing the dishes, we sit in the room and wait for the others.

After hours and hours of waiting, the first group finally appears. Kyle and Dad are the first ones to emerge with Unconciuos Fred and his son Damon.

“Goddess!” I fearfully exclaim, as Dad and I rush to them and I stagger at their condition. It’s a good thing my son is asleep. Liam would have freaked out at these horrid images.

Their bodies are completely bare and what breaks my heart is the sight of whip marks on them. They were definitely whipped with silver-laced whips because their skin is peeled off and is rotting away. They are covered with dry blood and numerous wounds.

“f**k” Dad mutters staring at his beta with guilty eyes. They are so thin

and appear lifeless. If we wasted any time, they would have died for sure.

“It is worse there, Ana. Those people are suffering. We will go for more” Jace’s dad says and they disappear again. It’s already dark outside. I hope Jace is okay.

“I am ashamed that woman is my mother” I blink away tears kneeling beside Damon. They didn’t do anything to deserve this. Goddess! Why do some things happen anyway?

“She will pay ten folds for this” My dad rushes to his room and comes back with the duffel bag containing the medicines. Without wasting time, we immediately get to business. My dad and I work silently on the battered bodies. First, we clean the wounds and disinfect them before injecting them with the antidote to eliminate the wolfsbane from their bodies.

As the night fades away, the two witches bring more injured men while Dad and I take care of them. Now I am glad that I stayed behind because it is hard work as it is. During the trips, I haven’t seen Jace and I wonder why he hasn’t appeared yet. Leo too.

“These are the last ones” Kyle announces when they bring two more guards. In total, we have a hundred and twenty-six injured men. Eighty of them are still unattended to because we ran out of medical supplies. The house is too small to accommodate all of them so they are littered outside the cabin.

This is a disaster.

“Where is Jace?” I ask Alpha Edward when he takes a sit beside Kyle.

“He went with Leo to the royal hospital for medical supplies”

“Oh, Okay” I mutter feeling worried for him. He can’t be found or I will die. What will I tell our son if his daddy doesn’t show up? I hope Andrew will man up to that b*tch sooner.

“The queen took El and Chase, to set up a trap for Jace when she missed us home. I don’t know what is wrong with that woman.” Alpha stressfully sighs. I knew she would go for our friends when she missed us.

“Can you check on them, please?” I face Kyle but he tiredly shakes his head.

“I need to rejuvenate, princess. They will be fine”

It can’t be fine with Leo and Jace in the same room. But since there is nothing I can do for now, I pray to Goddess for his safety.

After another half an hour of waiting, Leo and his witch finally appear with two large plastic bags. That is not the important thing.

“Where is Jace?” I quickly ask walking to Leo’s side.

“Oh! His friends were taken and he didn’t want to leave without them”

“And you left him alone?” I almost yell at Leo. Doesn’t he have a heart? “We brought the medicines, didn’t we? The boy will be fine” Leo utters dismissively, walking past me and I share worried glances with Alpha Edward.

Was this his plan all along, to hurt my mate?
