FATAL CLAIM

Chapter 18

DYLAN

Ric and I stood outside Adrian's office, Serena was yelling at him making us feel very uncomfortable but the Alpha had ordered us to stand here as he needed us to do some work.

"How did he find out?!" She yelled. I think she was referring to Ace knowing she was pregnant.

"I don't know," Adrian said.

"Then find out!" She snapped.

"Man, I'm loving this drama," Ric snickered as he sipped on his flask filled with whiskey.

"You've gotta get a life," I scoffed.

"Says the guy whose eavesdropping with his werewolf hearing," He retorted.

"They're yelling, I'm not eavesdropping," I defended.

"She is, he has his tail tucked between his legs," Ric motioned with his bottle.

"He can't say anything, he should have told her before," I leaned against the wall as Serena's voice had become a bit lower now but she was still angry.

"Ah you're such a goody two shoes," Ric rolled his eyes.

"It's about being a good partner, he should have shared this with her, she has the right to know," I shrugged.

"He was just trying to protect her," Ric stated.

"By hiding important things from her?" I raised my brow.

"Okay fine, Adrian was wrong," Ric sighed as he leaned against the wall too. "They're both starting to annoy me now, I really gotta sit," he said.

"I'm fine," I shrugged.

"You're a wolf! You don't get tired," he snapped.

"Keep drinking," I patted his head and he shot me a glare.

The door flung open, Ric and I instantly straightened up as Adrian motioned for us to come in.

"She wants to speak to Caterina," he whispered to us before letting us in.

"First, I heard that and second, I'm not asking for your permission, I'm informing you," Serena said without turning to look at us. I raised my brows at Adrian and he shook his head in exasperation.

"I don't think that's safe," I tried to reason with her once I took a seat on the chair next to hers.

"To hell with what these two say," Ric pointed at Adrian and I. "If you want to go and have a girl on girl cat fight, I'll be there," He winked, raising his flask at her.

"You're drunk," Adrian shot him a glare.

"No, I'm not drunk, I just like some good old fashioned cat fights," he shrugged.

"If you do insist on seeing Caterina, we will join you, and we're not leaving you alone for even a second," I said and Adrian nodded.

"Yeah, I think Dylan is right-" before he could finish talking Serena cut him off, getting up from the chair.

"Then let's go," She said.

"Right now?" I questioned in surprise.

"Right now," She declared.

"Fine, let's go," Adrian agreed begrudgingly. We all followed him out of the main door and towards the building with the holding cells in them, once we entered there, Serena looked at the cell in the far that held Ace.

"You only said Caterina," Adrian warned and she nodded her head.

"I know that," She walked ahead and stood in front of the metal door, behind which was my ex mate.
