Forged in the Flames by Karima Sa'ad Usman

Chapter 30

I could not wait to get back to Forest.

Throughout the journey back from Hill, I kept thinking of Aliana and wondering what she was up to. I was sure she wasn’t hopeful that I would return early.

I had a joke to crack with her when I got home, and I could not wait to see the expression on her face when I told it.

We finally got to the palace in Forest, and I looked at Gabriel’s house to see if Aliana was there. The door was locked, so I figured no one was home.

I alighted the vehicle and went into the building. Leaving Grant and the driver to handle my luggage.

I did not need to guess where Aliana would be.

On my way there, I heard Qusack in my head.

“Welcome home, Alpha,” He said, and I growled slightly. I didn’t want him to be the first to welcome me home.

“Thank you, Beta, see you soon,” I said, closing the link.

I went to my mother’s room and took a deep breath. Bane was eager to see Aliana, and so was I.

I turned the knob, opened the door and walked in. She was sitting on the couch looking at m y sleeping mother.

The moment she looked in my direction, her face lit up, and she ran to me.

I wrapped my arms around her and breathed in before kissing her sweet spot. It had only been five days, but it felt like I had been away for a while. I held on to her and allowed her scent to surround me. The very scent I had to get off me before going to Hill.

It had been five days since I held and touched her: three days of staying apart, and two days since I had seen her; now that I could do all those things, I doubted I could let her go.

Was this what being in love felt like? Was this what finally having a home felt like?

This was the first time I would be welcomed home warmly in my entire life. This was the first time I would be hugged and greeted with warmth.

The first time someone missed me.

I didn’t want to get emotional, but I would be a fool to let this go. I lifted Aliana bridal style and carried her to my room. I noticed she had dark circles, so I figured she had not been sleeping well.

While we headed to my bedroom, I linked Ania to care for my mother for the rest of the day and the next day.

I doubted I would be leaving my bedroom soon. Whatever I needed to do could wait. “Take care of the Queen and have food served in my room. You and Lisa would also be working alone tomorrow, and I would not like to be disturbed,” I linked to Ania.

“Yes, Alpha,” She replied, and I shut off the link.

“Qusack, I will discuss matters with you later. Tomorrow or the day after,” I told him and closed the mind link before he protested. I deserved some joy and peace too.

Entering the room, I noticed my luggage had been placed there. I could not wait to see Aliana in the lingerie I had bought in Peakland, but it could wait.
