Chapter Six

He woke up several hours later to orange blossoms and clove filling his nostrils. He reached over and patted cold, empty mattress. The slight scent of panic-laced pheromones. Confusion? Over what they’d done, over who they were to each other? Did his mate have day-after regrets? His wolf snarled, and Xan fisted the blankets, fighting the urge to leap out of bed and retrieve the mate who’d abandoned him.

Liv needed space. He should learn a little self-control, something he found almost impossible around her. He closed his eyes and listened for sounds in the house to signal she hadn’t left him. Clunks came from the living room. Xan growled low in his throat, his hackles rising. She cleaned his mess. Again.

He’d laid a lot on her the night before, and she still had a good deal of it to process. Stop it. She’s not going anywhere. Don’t piss her off. He reached for the remote, fighting his wolf’s desire to retrieve his female. He’d need to tamp down on his aggressive nature. Liv didn’t know her animal, didn’t understand the primitive natures driving her to act the way she did, but she would subconsciously follow her instincts. And it should be good enough for him.

Mating took sometimes days to complete, and separation could be almost unbearable. During mating, the males tended to be even more possessive and dangerous. Not something he wanted her to see or feel coming from him again. She couldn’t know all the intricacies that went along with the bond. He’d need to learn a little patience and control his beast—give her space when she needed it, pull her close when she didn’t. Her coyote remained shy and a flight risk.

Watching television should help him get his mind off his distant mate. Xan flipped through the news channels. The distraction would help. Sports, car show, cooking…a massacre outside a small Wyoming town. Whoa, back up there. He’d seen villages like the newscaster described.

In Africa.

Fuuuck.
