"Just slow down...he might have been lying." Knox's hand moves from the car's gear stick and on to my upper thigh.

No doubt he could sense my wolf, she was pushing against me. It was like she was biting down on a bone and wanted more. She wasn't willing to give up until she knew everything. Until she knew enough to satisfy her curiosity about this claim of family being out there that we had no clue even existed.

I was already sitting too forward, my face almost pressed against the dashboard. I had been constantly moving, Knox using the terms "ants in my pants" as I kept shifting in my chair. I just couldn't get comfortable, I couldn't relax.

"Can you calm her because my wolf is close to shifting and if I crash this car, with us in it...your parents really will kill me. Besides, he was probably lying." Knox's hand gently squeezes my upper thigh. His tone close to a command. In all that has happened over the past few days I've still not asked Knox about his past, about how he healed from the wounds Jaxon inflicted onto him. I'm still certain he has alpha blood within his veins, that there is a power behind his commands.

"No, why would he? Who would lie about such a thing?" I turn to him, his eyes looking in the rear view mirror, watching the car that had followed us all the way from the restaurant.

With the pack link now in place, I was able to warn the guards on the gate ahead of our return meaning we wouldn't need to stop. I also gave them the heads up that the car behind was friendly, and didn't need to be treated as suspicious.
