“Probably.” He reached over and brushed my hair back, his eyes falling to my neck. “Beautiful…”
“I want to see it,” I said, touching my neck.
“One sec.” He sat up, leaning for something on the ground. The sudden loss of his touch made me feel empty. My heart thundered. Was that what it would feel like every time we were apart? He turned back to me, his phone in hand as he caressed my cheek.
“I’m never leaving you, Kitten.”
“I didn’t say anything.” I pouted as he took a picture of my neck.
“I can kind of sense what you’re thinking.” He smirked, and I frowned.
“That’s a wolfie thing?”
“Kind of.” He winked as he held the phone out to me. I took it, my heart skipping a beat as I looked at the screen nervously.
It was not what I was expecting. There was a full moon, surrounded by flames. One could mistake it for the sun, but it was clearly a moon. In front of the moon was a silhouette of a wolf, its fur a deep navy black, littered with stars and a small moon… just like the night sky.
“What do you think?” he asked softly. My eyes snapped up towards him, and I smiled slightly.
“It’s… beautiful, like you.” He smiled, and I blushed. “Uh, I mean... like your wolf, your wolf is beautiful…”
“Either way, it’s cool,” he said, pulling me into his lap. “I don’t know how, but you look a thousand times more beautiful… if that’s even possible.”
I smiled, locking my arms around his neck, and kissed him. I didn’t care about the future. All I cared about was that no matter what, I had him…
Chris
The following day,Rayhan had mind-linked that he was on his way back. He and Delsanra had stopped at one of the family holiday homes not far from pack grounds. I didn’t know how I’d be able to face him or Raihana. Not after yesterday…
When I left her room, I had felt her powers and rushed inside, knocking her unconscious. But I wasn’t the only one who had felt the surge of power. I had instantly mind-linked Lola to get her ass over to handle Raihana, whom I had tucked into her sheets. Blake had rushed inside the mansion, asking what it was. Although I brushed it off, he didn’t seem to believe me.
“What was that?” he asked, rushing up the stairs just as I closed Raihana’s door.
“Nothing.”
“I felt something, Chris. Is Raihana okay? How could you leave her alone when something is fucking off!” he growled, pushing the door open. His eyes scanned the room fervently before he stepped back, running a hand through his hair. “Something still isn’t right…”
“I felt it too, but it’s gone, and the warriors are scanning the area. Just calm down, Blake,” I replied moodily.
“Don’t tell me to calm down,” he growled.
“Watch who you’re talking to,” I growled back, my eyes flashing.
He was about to say something when his gaze flicked to my neck, clothes, and hair. Fuck, I probably smelt of her. His eyes flashed before he slammed me against the door.
“What did you do?” he hissed, pressing his arm against my throat.
“Nothing,” I shot back, shoving him off and throwing him to the ground.
A murderous growl made both of us turn to see Lola standing there. Right then, her rank may be lower than mine as she hadn’t taken the position from her father, but she was still the future Beta of this pack. Both of us stopped our fucking spat.
“We felt something across the entire pack premises, and you two are being asshats?” she growled. She looked at me before pushing us both away from each other and entering Raihana’s bedroom.
“I’m going to tell the Alpha,” Blake snapped.
“I’ll do it,” I growled, “I’m the fucking Delta.”
“I will,” Lola snapped in irritation.
