Chapter 15 - Kyle

After our wonderful night in the woods, we spend a quiet day together. Just like after the first night, Leslie let me sleep next to her—we watch movies, eat snacks, and lie around in bed.

This was the basis of our relationship before, and it made me unbelievably happy. A place I can feel safe, comfortable, and loved, a person I can truly relax with—these are things I never had growing up. They truly are the simplest of things, and I’ve always craved them.

Now that I have it, I never want to let it go.

I see a darkness lurking at the edges of Leslie’s eyes, an occasional hesitance in her voice. I know I don’t deserve her forgiveness, but it doesn’t stop me from praying for it. I enjoy every single second of our lazy, quiet day, wishing with every fiber of my being that I will get to enjoy this for the rest of my life.

We fall asleep together, and I have another perfectly restful, refreshing sleep. We both wake up fairly early, and that’s when Leslie hits me with a surprise.

“How would you like to run up to Montrose?” she asks as we sit down at the table for coffee. “I wouldn’t mind a little adventure.”

“Sounds good,” I agree. “I’m a little short on money, though. Bae hasn’t paid me for last week.”

“All my treat,” she says, smiling. “We can hit one of the nice restaurants up there, maybe see one of the lookouts.”

“I’d love to,” I answer, grinning. I’m thinking about spending a blissful day with Leslie, and I don’t really care what we do.

After we get ready, we jump in Leslie’s small car and head off. We stop at the first gas station for snacks, spending the drive bickering about which music to listen to and eating candy. It’s no exaggeration to say I’m having the most fun I’ve ever had in my life.

The drive to Montrose is a little shorter than the drive to Silverton, and it makes me remember all those late nights I drove through the cold to get to Leslie’s place. She did the same for me as well. Sometimes, we would shift and run through the woods to meet halfway, howling to let each other know where we were and tracking each other’s scent.

My heart aches with deep regret that I kept our relationship secret. After Jack was banned from seeing Lena, I didn’t want anyone interfering with us. It would have killed me to be separated from Leslie, and there was no way I could go against my alpha. Especially when I’d worked so hard to prove my worth.

Along with the secrecy, hanging out with Darla was probably the stupidest thing I’ve ever done. Darla would be the first to admit that the relationship between us was anything but romantic, but instead of being open about what I was doing, I just let everyone assume what they wanted.

And it destroyed Leslie.

I can’t take my eyes off her as
