Zach's POV

"Hurry up Shane!"

I shouted before getting in the car. My son came running out of the house and Leroy, the one driving us today, helped him to get inside the car. I buckled him up and signaled Leroy to start the car.

Charles had called me yesterday informing me that I was needed at his house. His father was the one who had called for the meeting. I took Shane with me because I didn't want to leave him alone again and he wanted to see Cemil, so this was the best idea to take him with me.

I spent the whole ride to Cemil's pack lost in my thoughts. Shane would time to time want help with something but other than that, I was preoccupied with my thoughts. I wondered if I would be coming back with my mate or if something would seriously go wrong and made him stay back. I also prepared myself to receive the same action, like Charles did, from his older brother DJ. I understood why Charles acted the way he did because I had messed up in more ways than one. I messed up our friendship which was mostly a brotherhood, by keeping this from him. I messed up by risking his brother's life. I messed up by sleeping with an omega, nonetheless his brother. All in all, I had messed up big time.

Obviously, his family must be scared about the same thing. The laws that me and Cemil had broke to be together, had consequences. It was what I had feared before but Jonathan rejecting Cemil, it made things better. And I don't think Jonathan wanted to put Cemil in danger. That's why he rejected him because if they had still stayed mates, our situation could have been difficult.

The car stopped when we reached the pack house and Charles came out. He walked in our direction and stopped a few steps away from the car. Leroy helped Shane out and I got out on the other side. By the time I came to Charles, he had Shane in his arms and he was smiling at what the kid was signing.

"I miss you too buddy. Go with her, she will take you to your mother." Charles said just as an omega arrived. Shane looked at me and I gave him a nod. Charles handed him to the omega and we both stayed silent while watching them until they disappeared into the house. Charles looked at me and then turned away.

"The office is this way." He said while walking away and I followed him. It was awkward to not talk to Charles because we talk all the time but I guess things had changed. I didn't try to engage any conversation because as long as he wasn't beating me, we were okay. He would come around soon and until then, I'd give him his time.

I wanted to see Cemil but when I saw that he didn't come to welcome me, I knew he must have not been allowed to meet me. We reached his father's office and he knocked gently. After being told to come in, I entered behind Charles. He told me to sit down and he took the seat beside me. I looked around and was surprised to see Jonathan was also here. Charles father, his beta and DJ were the other people in here. I was greeted by the alpha and beta while DJ glared at me. Jonathan only nodded at me and I did the same.

"The reason I've invited you two is about my son, Cemil." The alpha paused and looked at me and Jonathan. "I want to hear from you exactly what happened." He looked at me and I figured I was supposed to start.

"When I met Cemil, I knew he was a werewolf and not mated. I also knew that I wasn't supposed to have a relationship with him but something kept pulling me to him. Eventually, we started a relationship. It didn't last long as I would have wanted because he had found his mate. That's when our relationship ended." I explained as much as I could.

"I met Cemil at the hospital where I was visiting at the moment. I knew he was my mate when I smelled his scent and when our eyes met, I knew for sure that he was my mate. He had run away from me which was something I wasn't expecting but I brushed it off as him being overwhelmed. However, when we were together, I could see how distant he was being. I suspected he had a boyfriend and I once told him to forget about his past which was something he found hard to do. I knew and found out about Zach on my own and seeing how hung over they were over each other, I decided to complete the mating with Cemil. Before the mating ceremony, I found out about Cemil's pregnancy and I knew it was Zach's. I was aware of how a messed up situation it was. I tried to make Cemil abort but he refused. There was nothing else I could have done so I decided to give my mate what he wanted and that was only by severing the bond we had. He was free to be with him and that's all I wished to give him." Jonathan gave his explanation and the room became silent for some minutes.
