Chapter 163

• As Cedric woke up entangled in the sheets with his mate pressed tightly against his side, he couldn't help but think that this was life. For the first time in a long time, Cedric felt fulfilled. Everything was perfect. With Marisol by his side, he felt like he could do anything. He was happy, content, and peaceful. What more could a man ask for?
• However, there was one thing that sat heavy on his mind, and that was Marisol's obvious turmoil regarding the decision she had to make. He was aware that she'd been in a dilemma for the last few days but had been pretending and even going as far as thinking only happy thoughts whenever he was around.
• He wanted to ease her burden, and so a plan had begun to take root in his mind. He could make things easier for Marisol by relinquishing his position as Alpha so that he and Marisol could return to her pack.
