Rejected, And Became A Heiress (Cara)
My Billionaire Please Became 45

Chapter 0045

"Yes, please, make yourself comfortable." I do as he instructs, keeping a curious eye on

him.

"Walter is retiring," he says simply.

I nod, unsurprised. Walter has been the BloodyMoon Beta since Eamon's father was Alpha King.

My father.

Even now, six years later, it still takes me a second to remember that I'm a part of the Alpha family, too.

"That will be a big adjustment. He has served the pack for so many years, and he performed so well," I reply.

"Yes,

the person who follows in his footsteps must be someone who can manage just as well, if not better, than he. Someone with experience serving as Beta to a large pack.... Someone smart, who can juggle many things at once..." Eamon says, looking at me meaningfully. "You mean... me?!" I ask, genuinely surprised that I'd be considered for the job.

ME?!

"Precisely." Eamon says. Seeing my face, he adds, "Why wouldn't it be you? You're extremely well qualified, Cara. You've got experience."

I blush the slightest bit at the compliment. "I appreciate that, but that was different... I was raised in DarkWood."

"As an orphaned outsider," he reminds me. "How is that any better than fulfilling your birthright and joining the leadership here at BloodyMoon?"

My mouth snaps closed, stopping whatever I was about to say. Eamon makes a good point.

But I'm not sure what to say.

I hadn't been expecting a promotion so soon. "I feel like I only just got here. There's so much about this pack that I don't know..."

Eamon nods, "That's true. But if there's anyone up to the challenge of learning quickly, it's you. Believe me, I have the utmost faith in you, Cara. Now you just need to believe in yourself."

look down at my hands, suddenly feeling the weight of his love and care for me. He knows I can do this. I think deep down, I know I can do this, too.

But I've got the twins to consider now. They need me to be both mother and father for them, and I need to make sure they're taken care of That they have the childhood I never had.

For the millionth time, I wish I had my wolf Lucy here in my head to help me weigh the options. I wish I could hear her voice again... But I can guess what she'd say.

She'd tell me that Mia and Ethan already have a better childhood than I ever did. That they already have something I never did.

.Family.

They have me, and all six of my crazy brothers, and Ruby, and the entire BloodyMoon pack. To help them, to teach them. To love them. I'm not alone.

It's that one soothing thought that gives me the confidence to look up and into Eamon's

eves.

I know what I need to do.

"Okay. I accept. I'll serve as Pack Bloody Moon's Beta."

Relief flashes over Eamon's face, which then morphs into pride. "Thank you, Cara. We all thank you."

I move to get up from my chair, assuming that our meeting is finished, but Eamon stops me by lifting his hand.

"Actually, I've got something important to discuss with you as my new Beta." He says.

"Yes?" I ask curiously.

Eamon hesitated, looking at me, and finally made up his mind. He said softly, "This morning, I received a crucial document, one that's vital to the future of our Pack. 1 ask," What is it?"

"... It's PACK DARKWOOD. "Eamon says.

"Pack DarkWood has reached out. They want to reopen communications and establish diplomatic relations."

"If we agree, Alpha King Alaric will arrive here shortly."

My stomach drops, and I grip my fingernails into the chair to steady myself.
