One week later

There’s something different about the pack, but I haven’t figured out what it is just yet.

As I walk down the halls in the den, I realize that it’s too quiet here, and it’s like there’s a dark cloud, hanging over the entire place. I’ve yet to see any wolves walking around like normal, so I know something must have happened.

I’ve only been gone for a week, and yet, everything has suddenly changed.

At first, I worry that someone died, but I quickly shake that thought away. I can’t let myself think that way, because if they did lose someone, it would be devastating. Surely, if a wolf from the pack passed, I would’ve heard about it, before returning.

So lost in my own thoughts, I don’t even realize where my feet have taken me, until I sense him. Fucking mating bond.

Slowly pushing out a deep breath, as my gaze lands on Nick, I have to remind myself to stay hidden. It’s so hard to do, as I watch him working in the clinic. Being the pack’s healer, I’m sure his job isn’t for the fainthearted, but he seems to hold the position well. When I first realized he was a healer, I thought his position was unnecessary. Being immortal means that we don’t have to fight diseases, and we heal instantly.

However, Nick’s role isn’t for just everyone. His specialties are with the younger pups, and he makes sure to keep them out of harm’s way. Not to mention, he’s the one everyone goes to, when there’s a new baby arriving. As the humans would say, he’s a pediatrician and an OBGYN.

Honestly, this entire encounter with him would be so much easier, if he wasn’t my mate.

Against my better judgement, I step further into the room, and then, his head snaps in my direction. He must sense that I’m here, or how my emotions seem to be all over the place. Maybe, it’s both, and again, I wish that things could be different for us. While I’m full of anger and revenge, he’s kind and gentle.

There’s no way we would work.

However, I can’t deny the strong pull of our mating bond, trying to bring us together. I know he feels it too, as he stops working, and then, walks over by me. The closer he gets, the more my heart begins to race.

Especially, when I notice the want and hunger laced in his brown eyes.

Swallowing hard, I remind myself not to reach forward and touch him, as he stops inches away from me. I still wonder how it’s possible that he can sense me, while I’m under my cloaking spell, but in this moment, it’s only him and I.

For just a moment, I let myself wonder, as I imagine what it would be like to drop the spell, and then let him have his way with me. I can see it so clearly that I lick my lips, as I picture him reaching for me, and then pulling me in close.
