Chapter 10.
They had dinner together. All of them at the table. Lori, Grace and Mr Gabriel, Lori didn’t dare ask where the cousin she had seen Grace taking food out for him before they started eating.
Dinner was pasta, like Grace had mentioned earlier, Mr Gabriel was oddly quiet, he seemed to have a lot on his mind.
Lori was quiet throughout the entire meal and she finished her meal fast enough to leave the table.
Gabriel watched her leave the table after she was done. He knew she just arrived, but she didnt seem too fond of him.
They also didn’t talk much either, all their conversation were centered around the baby, nothing more.
Gabriel wished he could have a normal conversation with her, at least once but he didn’t know how to approach her.
“I take time.”
Grace said as she pulled him out of his thoughts.

Grace nodded.
“My lips are sealed Alpha. You can take as much time as you want to Egure things out.“.
Gabriel nodded.
He knew he could always count on her loyalty, in fact, all of them, he could always count on their loyalty, they had taken the blood oath.
“It will take time though…”
Grace said as she looked to the direction of the stairs where Lori had gone up to.
“She’s a very broken girl. And her wounds run deep. Loving her, would be a challenge.”
