“I’ll take that moan as a yes,” Atlas chuckles, and I give him a death stare.

I ignore those two fuckers and take another whiff—because I can’t quite believe I really can smell it. Now when I think about it… I subconsciously must have picked up on this smell for weeks.I can smell it!And I canfeelit too. All these emotions enhanced—and at the same time—nothing truly changes but everything feels so different.

“I can’t believe I can fucking feel my true mate, and it’sher!” I whisper-shout at them and they both shake their heads in amusement.

I will have to make that alpha command extra air tight, if I don’t want them to make fun of me for accidentally falling in love with my true mate and biggest enemy.

True mate!

I feel the true mate bond,I repeat to myself over and over so it will sink in. I have a true mate, and it’s a girl I’m in love with anyway. My true and only weakness…

I can feel her.

And I know what I have to do now.

Chapter 53 – Too Tired For Lies

Back to Asher’s POV

Ifeel groggy.

My hand is painful. The top of it. It stings and pulls on the skin.

I’m hot, too.

Too hot.

Groggy.

Parched. My lips are… weird.

Cracked? Is that what it feels like?

Hot.

Why am I so hot?

I try to lift my heavy eyelids.

Or move. Move anything.

My stirring is blocked by something heavy. And hot. And moving, no,breathing.

I open my eyes and try to pat my surroundings. My eyes slowly adjust to oddly familiar bluish-gray windowless walls. Déjà vu. No. It’s different. The room is the same but everything else is different. There are no weird conversations, no talking at all, and no hospital gown, I’m naked and so… weak.

My handstops at someone's very short, thick hair. They move, and soon, Cain’s Beta smiles at me. I smile back, but it feels like a wince instead.

Then, my brain fully registers what I already feel, and my face falls completely.

I’m seized by a huge black wolf! Cain. His heavy paws are slung over my torso, his hind legs intertwined with mine, and his whole weight is pressed on my sore body. I turn my head slowly, only to be met with his huge fangs way too close to my face.

Another déjà vu. Being hunted by this beast in the forest, trying to survive by blocking his jaws with my bare hands…

I try to push him off, wiggle out from under him…

Something in the room starts to beep frantically, and I feel Beta hands on my not-wolf-covered shoulder. “Calm down, Luna, that’s only the Alpha. He finally fell asleep ten minutes ago.”

The wolf shifts its weight, but I’m too weak to get from under him completely.
