My Mate Is An Omega – Chapter 51

Caitlyn POV

Still, part of me couldn’t help but think how cruel it was for a mother and her unborn cub to die, caught in the crossfire. Judging by Lance’s ashamed semblance when he turned back to me, I knew that my feelings were written all over my face.

By sunset, they were too drunk and caught up in the party to remember I was still there – well, at least Megan was. I said my goodbyes to Sasha, who was keeping an eye on my best friend to make sure she wouldn’t stain her reputation, and returned to my room. Now that I was finally at ease, I couldn’t wait to spend some time with my mate.
