Chapter 12. Be Treated with Respect and Love

Caleb’s POV

We arrive at the packhouse just as Mom’s phone rings. Aunt Amber did not pick up when she called before. Selena keeps close to me, I can feel she has her hopes up, but is also afraid to be disappointed if they don’t want to meet her. We saw a lot of curious eyes and heard whispers when we arrived back at the fair and walked to the packhouse. People were talking about Selena, but she kept her head high fainted in ignorance, and stared ahead. I on the other hand felt murderous at their audacity. They were saying that my mate is stealing me from someone, but not who that someone is. I have a pretty good guess though from my mom’s reaction earlier.

“…Uh huh. Are you turning around then? Alright. I’ll give her a call as well. Do you think they would accept a video call? Okay. I’ll do that. Text me when you are there. Uh huh. I’ll let her know. Thanks, Amber.” Mom hangs up and motions for us to follow just as Jamie and Zane join us at the front door. People
