Mated To My Obsessive Stepbrother

Chapter 348

KESTER

You need to go home, man. You could use some test, Norlan ged me but the thought of returning home made something twist in my stomach.

The thought of being in the same house with Kasmine without being able to see her killed me. I'd rather not be home right now. And, perhaps, tomorrow, I'd get her out of the pack house already. It was time to return to our home.

"What about her?" I lifted my gaze to meet his and I saw the conflict in his eyes.

He hesitated... That kind of pause that made it clear he was choosing his words carefully, or not sure what the hell to say
