TWELVE

LEV

Lev arrived in town two days later. After the chaos at the hotel, all he wanted to do was see Kiera's face. He couldn't get her out of his head. Guilt wrapped around him like a snake, constricting his heart each time he thought of her without him. He had let her out of his sight once, and he saw what had happened as a result.

He thought back to the hotel and his mother’s presence there. Usually, he'd block out her aggression with stoicism. Figuring she would throw her tantrum regardless and then leave him be. What if he was making a grave mistake?

His mother never cared for Kiera. She didn’t bother to hide it either. But what was he supposed to do? Condemn the woman for being a bitch? Because she was at his hotel? A sinking feeling threatened to collapse his certainty.

Lev’s mind played the conversation he had with his managers on repeat. His mother had been there only days before the outbreak. Could this just be more than a coincidence? Or was this all just unfortunate timing?

He had viewed the security footage himself. There was no doubt she was there. She was also too eager to send him out of town. She was beginning to look more and more suspicious.

Lev put his car in park in front of Kiera's building. Walking up the short set of steps to her apartment building, he hated that he had to see her here. His mate was supposed to be safe at home. His home. His bear huffed in agreement.

The door opened, and it was like he had stepped into the sun. Kiera’s long brown hair was styled in a braid. She peered at him through her tousled fringe. Her green eyes held a glimmer of the spark he used to ignite.

Her joy was restrained by hesitancy. A small smile crossed her lips as she played with the colorful bangles she wore. The habit was so familiar it made him long for her trust.

“Hi," she said shyly.

“Hey.”

“Oh, um ... come in,” Kiera held the door open for him. “When did you get back?”

“I just got back, actually,” he said, walking into the living room. “I came straight here.”

“Why?” she asked.

“For you. I couldn’t stand not being able to see you.”

Kiera blushed as she bit her bottom lip to restrain a small smile. Despite the situation, he enjoyed the challenge of winning her over again. He would do anything for her. He was sure she still felt their bond when she looked at him like that. If everything went according to plan, after today, she would be a few steps closer to reestablishing some of her memories.

Lev had been patient and understanding. Allowing her to move out of their house. He thought it wouldn’t be a permanent arrangement, but it was starting to feel like one. Somehow, he had to show Kiera who she had been, who they had been. Then, just maybe, they could finally get back to their lives.

“Would you like to have dinner with me tonight?” he asked.
