Chapter 406

Instead, Maxwell had called to say he was busy with pack business and wouldn't be coming home. I had broken down in tears at yet another broken promise.

Lily had comforted me, blowing on my hand and saying it would make it feel better. This was a way for us to express our care for each other.

"Alpha Blackwood, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to," the flustered healer asked. "Did I hurt you?"

Her wolf cowered slightly at having caused pain to such a powerful Alpha. The scent of her fear filled the small treatment room.

He felt a mixture of pain and happiness. His wolf practically purred at my gentle touch and caring attention.

His Alpha instincts were checking for any signs of distress. The concern in his voice made my wolf settle slightly.

"I'm fine," I replied, shaking my head. My wolf relaxed under his concerned attention.
