CHAPTER 9

The only reason Ember was walking away from Cobalt was the fact she could feel his need to be alone so he could master his emotions and instincts again. She could feel his pain too, and that roused her own instincts, making her want to stay.

He needed her.

It was hard to deny that instinct to return to him, to weather the storm and ignore every attempt he would make to push her away and force her to leave.

She had to though.

If she went back to him now, she would only cause him further hurt.

He thought he had done something wrong, when he had done everything right.

She didn’t care that he had held her tightly. It hadn’t been tightly enough for her. She had been as desperate as he had been in that moment, and even now she was fired up from his possessive kiss, from the way he had held her close to him, had given her a glimpse of Heaven in his arms and had come close to giving her everything she had wanted.

The hunger he had awoken in her lingered, left her aching for another taste of him. It gave her strength too, courage that she had been sorely lacking, but wouldn’t let falter again. She was determined to break down the barriers he kept constructing between them.

To do that, she needed some insight into him. Knowledge was the key to winning him, and she knew where to find it.

But it meant talking to the one person who had seen through her façade to the truth she held in her heart.

Rath.

Ember picked her way through the forest, using her senses to pinpoint the pride members who were out searching for her, and steering well clear of her mother. She stealthily moved from tree to tree, scanning as far and wide as she could, checking everyone she sensed to see whether or not they were Rath.

She felt Flint and Yasmin a short distance from the river and smiled to herself as she realised they definitely weren’t searching for her, were caught up in each other as always.

She kept her distance from them and worked her way east, towards the main area of Cougar Creek, and had to duck behind trees once or twice to avoid being spotted by males who were scouring the forest. The last thing she wanted was to be caught by one of them.

She waited for one to move on and when he was distant on her senses, she broke cover and headed north, closing in on the river.

Relief was swift to wash through her when she spotted Rath through the pines, wading through the shallow water.

She hurried from the trees, pausing only to check he was alone before she stepped out into the open.

He paused knee-deep in the water and slowly turned to face her, his handsome face losing its hard edge as he spotted her and his grey eyes softening. He huffed and scrubbed a hand around the back of his neck, brushing the collar of his navy fleece.
