835 The secret is out

Talia, Damon, Maya, and Caden pretended not to see Mindy and Gideon kissing like no one was watching.

Gideon groaned and Maya rolled her eyes while suppressing giggles that were bubbling in her stomach.

"You are next," Talia said to Maya. "Are you making plans for your time off?"

"Caden has it all figured out," Maya said.

Maya was smiling, but the truth was that she was anxious. She had heat a few times since Caden marked her but a baby didn't happen. Maya and Caden told themselves that the timing was not right, the Dark Howlers pack needed them as their Betas, but those were just excuses after they found out that Maya was not pregnant.

Maya hoped that Talia had the power to fix whatever was wrong because most of the couples got pregnant during their first heat and by the second one nearly everyone had a baby. What if she can't have a baby? Will Caden love her less?

"Oy!" Caden exclaimed, and Maya jolted.
