Chapter 51

Marcus drove me to Valen’s Hotel; I noticed the strange looks I received as I stepped out of his car. I waited for him before following him inside the grand place. People stared openly, and I rolled my eyes and fought the urge to tell them off. I stabbed the elevator button with my finger a little too viciously in my annoyance.

Marcus raises an eyebrow at me before smirking and shaking his head. Looking around the foyer while we waited, I made eye contact with a few people who stared in shock at seeing a rogue, anyone would think I had two heads with the way they stared, like I was some mutant. I stared back until they looked away.

“Not trying to cause trouble at all,” Marcus says, clicking his tongue.

“I am not the problem they are,” I tell him, and he nods. “It won’t be an issue soon,”

“It shouldn’t be an issue at all,” Marcus sighs. There was no point in getting into an argument over whose views were right or wrong. The elevator doors open, and I step inside; Marcus pulls a key from his pocket, placing it in the keyhole and twisting it before pressing the button to the penthouse. I tapped my foot impatiently, and Marcus bristled.

“I take it you are not happy with your mate,” Marcus chuckles.

“No, I am ecstatic he changed my son’s name without asking, that he pulled him from school earlier than he said he would and that he didn’t return my son like agreed,”
