Kade
Finished
The moment Kade got the text from Laria he was filled with anxiety. He was already on his way back, but he had taken longer than he meant to deal with all the pack matters. He can’t blame her for running out of patience after waiting around for two days.
He ran into the venue, ready to hunt for her, but it was easy to find her. She was the most stunning woman there.
She was off on the sidelines with Adam, Skoll was furious about that, but when it was obvious something was wrong, Kade just felt relieved that someone cared enough to try to figure out what was happening.
He rushed toward her, but she smiled at him so radiantly that even though he knew something wasn’t right, he wanted that chance to dance with her.
But Lana going limp in his arms wasn’t worth that moment. Nothing has ever scared him so much in his life.
While they ride in the back of car and Tyler drives, he texts Maeve all of Lana’s symptoms and she gives him a list of instructions on how to make it better. But in all caps she tells him: IF THIS DOES NOT WORK TAKE HER TO THE PACK HOSPITAL
Tyler pulls up to his apartment building and says, “Let me know if you need anything else p>
He nods, not wanting to spend any time on idle chitchat when he just wanted to take care of her. He carries Lana into the apartment, grateful that every time he speaks to her that she is responding back to him.
Kade sets her down on the couch as he goes to retrieve different supplies and calls out, “You still awake p>
“Yup,” she responds, her voice sounding tired, “Just like I have been every time you’ve asked me that p>
He walks back into the room, passing her a glass filled with a concoction of medicinal things that Maeve told him to get. “Drink that,” he instructs. Lana brings the glass to her nose and sniffs it, instantly scrunching up her nose from the smell.
He almost wants to laugh because the face she makes is so adorable. But he’s still too worried about the danger she could be in.
He doesn’t know who drugged her or what exactly they used on her, but it’s obvious that’s what happened.
She finally chugs the drink, although there’s obvious distaste on her face. He playfully tells her, “You always seem to be falling into danger p>
She frowns deeply, he notices the fog seems to clear from her eyes as she asks, “What are you talking about p>
“Well, I’m pretty sure someone drugged you p>
Her frown seems to deepen even more and she shakes her head with a slight pout, “I don’t know when or

how that could’ve even happened p>
“Well, let’s take things show. First, how are you feeling p>
Finished
She breathes out a happy sigh as she seems to relax into the couch, “Better now that the world has stopped spinning p>
Her eyes roam over him and she smiles softly, “You matched my dress perfectly with your tie. You look great p>
Kade smiles and Lana’s head tilts back with a lazy smile on her lips. He tells her, “You look stunning, Lana. Took my breath away when I first saw you p>
Her smile falters, “I wish I could have seen your reaction p>
“It doesn’t matter,” he says as he sits beside her, “Now, could you tell me what happened tonight since you got to the venue p>
“Well, I rode in with Grace and then Caleb confronted me in the front. Adam helped us get separated and then we went inside p>
“And what happened once you went inside?” He presses, wanting her to come up with every detail she can.
“Yeah, I went in and Adam got me a drink and then we joined the group p>
Pure rage races through Kade’s body.
Adam. He knew that guy was up to no good. He can’t believe that he even felt any type of relief at seeing them together. For a brief moment, he thought that Adam actually genuinely cared enough to check on her. But no, he sabotaged her. And he will pay for that,
He discreetly texts Tyler to get Adam as he tells Lana, “He drugged your drink p>
She rolls her eyes, “You’re just jumping to conclusions, Kade. Adam wouldn’t do that p>
“He would and he did p>
“No he didn’t p>
He holds his hands up like he was backing off, not letting her know that he already has Tyler on the case. As he heads to the kitchen to make the next step that Maeve told him to do he says, “So, until you got drugged were you enjoying your night p>
“I mean, sure, the drive with Grace was great! And having Caleb like fake apologize or whatever that crap was was really truly wonderful p>
Kade smirks in amusement as he brings her the second drink. This time, she doesn’t sniff it before downing the drink like a shot. She smacks her lips after finishing it and says, “It actually has a minty after taste. It’s not as bad as the other one p>
“Well, that’s good at least.” Kade says as he sits beside her and looks at her face. Her eyes meet his and the moment feels electrically charged. His voice is low as he says, “Why do we keep fighting this, Lana? Why can’t we just be together. Is it really so complicated p>

Chapter 91 The Moment Kade Got The Text
Finished
The silence hangs between them. His heart pounds so loud that he’s sure that she can hear it. But she just stares at him and he isn’t sure if it’s because she’s still dazed from whatever drug is in her system or if she is just thinking.
This wasn’t the time for that intimate of a question. He knows that. He knew better than to do this but he couldn’t resist.
As he stares into her eyes his mind flashes back through every single moment that led them here. He remembers the first time that he met her, he thought she was supposed to be the girl that he was going to hook up there. But she ended up being so much more than that.
She looked so innocent as her eyes ran over his naked body.
At the moment, he had been frustrated that she didn’t fall to his charms. But if she had fallen into bed with him right there then they wouldn’t be in this moment together now.
He thinks of how he rescued her at that house party.
All the teasing and banter they’ve had, the flirting and constant build up.
That searing kiss she gave him when he saved her from Caleb.
Every single moment they’ve ever shared slowly has been building to this moment.
Kade wants to be with her, more than anything else. He wants a real relationship. He’s in love with her.
She finally speaks, “Okay, let’s do this. Let’s end the contract and be in a real relationship p>
His breath catches in his throat as he stares back at her, making sure that her eyes are fully clear of the drug and that she is serious about this.
And she is.
This is actually happening.
