My Mate Is An Omega – Chapter 58

Caleb POV

My gaze shifted between Caitlyn, the bear, and the warlock as I tried to process what was going on. f**k! This was not what I had planned at all!

The night after I lost the challenge against the stray because of my wolf’s stubbornness, I finally managed to get him to cooperate with me. Although he didn’t really do much to stop me from rejecting our mate, he wasn’t willing to lose her. Once she left Ninebark, Boris was adamant that dying would be better than staying with me, but seeing her again and realizing we couldn’t get her back because of his weakness, he decided to listen to me.

was quite simple, and the first thing we had to do was get back in shape. I knew werewolves usually didn’t remain sane for long upon becoming rogue.

ad to hold him back. I wanted to keep her safe, and I knew the best way to do that would be to not reveal our connection to the bear; if he knew she was my fated partner, he would probably end us both. However, it was incredibly hard to stand still while I watched him roughly place his index finger under her chin, forcing her to look at him. I was about to give in to my wolf’s desires, but it seemed my mate didn’t need saving. Despite the hint of fear in her eyes, she stared right back at him as she pulled away from his touch.

Even without looking at her, I could feel her anger, which made me more hesitant. How was I supposed to make her see my side of the story now?
