Chapter 38

Valen led us toward the door, and I was relieved he was letting me take our son home. Valarian had his head rested on my shoulder when Valen opened the door. My footsteps faltered, and I froze when I noticed his father talking to one of the guards out front. Valen also stopped, and I watched his father laugh at something one of the guards was telling him when he turned, and his eyes went to us standing in the doorway of his son’s apartment.

I drop my face into the Valarian’s shoulder, and Alpha Kalen growls when Valen steps in front of me, blocking the view I had of his father. My heart fluttered frantically, noticing the man, and I fought the urge to take a step back.

“Why the f*ck do you have a rogue-wh0*e in your apartment- ” His words cut off as his eyes settled on Valarian in my arms, his head just poking out above Valen’s shoulder. He looked at his son and sniffed the air before shoving past Valen, and I stumbled over my own feet moving a step away.

Valen’s growl resonated off the walls as he tossed his father against the wall, making me jump. A hand grips my shoulder before I am yanked backwards and out of the way. Valen pins his father against the wall. Valen’s forearn was resting against Kalen’s throat. I looked over my shoulder to see who had grabbed me and found Tatum and Marcus behind me. Marcus jerks me behind him, and Tatum grips my arms holding me steady before Marcus moves to the middle.

“What is the meaning of this Valen, that boy,” Kalen growls and looks back over at me, and his eyes narrow before shock flitted across his face.

“You,” he pointed at me, and Valen growls at his father in a clear warning.

“Everly! And you ever approach her like that father, and we will have issues, ” Valen warns, his canines slipping from his parted lips at angled toward his father’s throat.
