“Humans impregnated the wolves apparently,” Ryker answers.

“I met him though I can’t remember when, my wolf would know,” I told her but I still couldn’t feel her.

“That must have been around the time we went to war with him,” I heard her whisper to Ryker who nodded.

“Why can’t I feel my wolf?” I ask looking at Ryker, suddenly feeling unsettled within myself like a piece of me was missing, a huge piece of me missing making me uneasy. He rubs my arms, sparks flying everywhere. My body surprisingly relaxes under his touch and I lean against him before realizing what I was doing, my eyes snapping open to his Aunty staring at me, a small smile on her lips.

“You’re supposed to feel like that, I get this is new to you in a way, but your mate won't hurt you.”

“He cut off my toes,” I blurted out at her words. She looks at him appalled.

“You left that part out of the conversation,” she says to him glaring at him.

“They grew back and I apologized,” he says, making me look at him.

“Besides, her wolf said we are even after Reika killed me,” he says with a shrug.

“When did you speak to my wolf? And I never killed you,” I tell him.

“You did take out my entire pack along with me when you drained me. As for your wolf, the reason you can’t feel her is because I gave you a sedative.”

“You drugged me?” I ask and I feel myself hyperventilate. He drugged me, he took my wolf.

“I am trying to help you,” He whispers next to my ear.

“He isn’t lying, your wolf is like mine, has full reign when you don’t, it's just a precaution for now. He hasn’t hurt your wolf. I promise he won't hurt you. You may not trust him but you can trust me,” she says, grabbing my hand.

“Well I need to head back to the hotel, but I will come over tomorrow with Damien and the kids,” The woman says standing up, rubbing my cheek with her hand.

“Damien?” I ask, wondering why that name sounds familiar to me.

“Yes my mate, and your half brother, you can meet your niece and nephews too,” she says.

“You have pups?” I ask excitedly and she nods.

“They aren't really pups anymore but yes, I have kids,” Ryker hugs her before walking off with her while I sit at the table. I hear the front door close before hearing footsteps coming back toward me.

“Are you hungry?’ He asks, coming over to me. He rubs his hands up my arms.

“Why do you keep touching me?” I ask, shrugging him off.

“Sorry, I don’t mean to, your scent is stronger now I have marked you, the pull to you is stronger,” He admits and I feel a strange feeling hit me.

“You want to touch me?” I ask confused.

“Yes, but I won’t if you don't want me to,” he says kneeling in front of me. Did I want him to touch me? I know I wanted to touch him earlier but now I felt all over the place. Like a war was raging in my head. He laughs, and I look at him and realize that was the first time I had actually heard him laugh, he looked younger.

“I will make you something to eat, while you decide if you want me to touch you or not,” he says with a chuckle. Wait he could hear me, can he stop himself from hearing my thoughts.

“Yes I can, but I find it quite entertaining,” he says, grabbing something from the pantry.

“Well can you try not to, it's awkward, especially when I can't hear you.”

“I can only hear you when you're close, so I will try to block you out,” he says.

“Why are you being nice?” I ask, worried it was some trick.

“Because I was wrong, I see that now. I never should have hurt you Reika. And I won’t again, I promise,” he says, and my stomach does a little flip.
