Until that moment I hadn’t realized how much I’d wanted to be the one to tell him about my wolf. He’d helped me so much with her. If anyone in the world had ever initiated my wolf, it was him with the help of his wolf.
What had he thought when he’d found out? Had he been pleased? Indifferent? Maybe he’d changed the subject because it didn’t matter to him anymore.
“So you know about the pack bond, too, then,” I said, my voice hard.
“Only the bare bones of it. Just that that bastard father of yours was exiled, mostly because of you figuring it all out. But not the specifics of how you did it or what you felt like going through it.” Paddy’s voice was soft and encouraging. As if I’d tell him anything.
“Well, it’s no wonder you seem to want me back with him. Now that I’m normal and a real contender for Alpha. You’re such a treacherous bastard, Paddy, you know that?”
“Goddamn it,” he swore helplessly. “I never thought your wolf would hold you back even before the bloody pack bond thing. Liam was working with you, and that was good enough for me. I saw what your wolf did for the bloody Council wolves. It wasn’t an issue with me.”
“Maybe not you,” I said through gritted teeth. “She’s normal now, and I’m still apologizing for her. Still making excuses for her.”
“Yeah, and I don’t understand that at all. Nobody in Mac Tire knew about your wolf anyway.”
“Why not?” I thrust my chin out angrily. “You kept it a dirty secret, didn’t you? Afraid it would ruin my precious chances at Alpha? What if I don’t want to be Alpha? Normal wolf or not?”
“You don’t want a baby?” Paddy asked. “Because I don’t believe you. I saw the way you looked at your friend’s baby daughter, and I heard what you said about the subject. I was there, remember?”
“I’m tired, and I want to go to bed.” I knew I was being a coward, but fuck it. I couldn’t even think straight, and maybe I was getting belligerent for no reason. But I was not going to fall for his Irish charm and his bullshit lies. I wasn’t.
