Then my gaze met Cadens , and the warmth of his hand in mine made me realize I had been holding onto him . I quickly pulled my hand away and sat up . What are you doing here ? . Caden only stared at me instead of answering me . It only took a moment before the truth hit me . It seemed that he had been the one to save me Last night . I had been nearly overwhelmed by the effects of the wolfsbane , barely holding on to consciousness long enough to send him a message . I didnt trust anyone here , but despite all our tension , Caden was the only one from the Eclipse Pack I could Tum to Caden looked exhausted . His eyes were bloodshot with fatigue and I could see that he hadnt rested . I tried to recall what had happened while I was unconscious , feeling embarrassed . I smiled awkwardly . Thank you for bringing me back , I said , but then my confusion set in again . But why are you still in my room ? If he had brought me here , he could have left once I was settled . There was no need to stay the night . Cadens expression shifted back to its usual coldness . Who was it that wouldnt let go of my hand last night , huh I was speechless . Well , I guess I owed him a debt of gratitude now . But … I wasnt conscious . You were the one awake . You couldve let go of me while I was asleep , I retorted in embarrassment . So now Im wrong for staying and watching over you all night ? he countered . I … I didnt mean it like that . I couldnt argue with him , though . His actions felt so out of character , so unlike the cold , distant Caden I was used to . Cadens face tightened with frustration . I instinctively shrank back into a submissive position , trying to appear more like an Omega in his presence . He probably regretted not leaving me alone sooner . Then , he spoke again , his tone colder than before . Ill handle what happened last night . I owe you an explanation for your exposure to wolfsbane in the warehouse . Dont get the wrong idea . The only reason 1 stayed was because I didnt want anything else happening to you . Im doing this for Grandpa , not for you . Chapter 14 They Started Bickering Again . I nodded , though his words were anything but comforting , Once he returned to his usual cold self , I did too , I shot him a look of annoyance . Youre the one overthinking . I dont go around making moves on people Cadens POV : This woman was really starting to get on my nerves . Finished I stayed with her all night , but she wasnt even grateful . She started arguing with me instead . Why had I even bothered saving her ? Judging by the way she was talking , it seemed like she was fine now . I turned to leave , but just as I reached the door , I bumped into Queenie . She had seen Rosaline lying in bed through the crack in the door . Caden , why are you coming out of Rosalines room at this hour ? she asked immediately . Queenie was always too curious for her own good . I didnt bother explaining and just brushed past her . Her voice followed me as I walked down the hall . You didnt stay the night there , did you ? What did you two do ? Rosalines POV : The conversation between Caden and Queenie outside the door left me feeling exasperated . Why isnt there a normal person in the Holbrooks ? I rubbed my temples in frustration , then got up to the bathroom to freshen up . After a night of deep sleep , most of the effects from the wolfsbane had already worn off . After all , I was the Alpha of Shadow Pack my body was strong . But I still felt embarrassed about how I must have looked when I passed out . I could only imagine how much Caden would tease me for it next time we argued . All of this was Stellas fault . How dare she mess with me like this . I promised I wouldnt let her off easy . Once I was finished , I headed downstairs for breakfast . When Caden saw me , he immediately set his fork down and stood up to leave . I was used to his behavior by now , so I didnt pay much attention . I sat down and began to eat . After what had happened last night , I was still tired and needed to replenish my strength , so I made sure to cat a good breakfast . But then Queenie piped up , her voice loud and accusing . Youve been here for just a few days , and already youve got my brother wrapped around your finger . What exactly happened between you two ? Why was he coming out of your room this morning ? Queenie didnt dare ask me anything when Caden was around , but she wasted no time now that he was gone . Eleanor , of course , followed suit with her shrill voice . Is this true ? Rosaline , what are you trying to do ?
