CHAPTER 190

AMELIA’S P.O.V

I didn’t want to leave the house the next morning but when Kaden told me that it was to say goodbye to Jackson, I forced myself out.

Going to the pack house was terrifying and the entire time, it felt like someone was breathing down my neck and the worst was yet to come. Kaden was a firm pillar by my side the entire time, he never once took his hand out of mine and he never strayed from my side. I knew that I was safe with him but that didn’t mean I still wasn’t a little scared.

“You look like shit,” Jackson drawled as soon as he saw me.

Kaden stiffened, not liking his tone but waiting to see my reaction. I was silent for a second before a small smile pulled at the corner of my lips. I wrapped my arms around his center clearly catching him off guard.

For a moment, he didn’t move and then, ever so slowly, he wrapped his arms around me and squeezed softly.

“I would say you look like shit but you actually look better,” I whispered as I pulled back.
