Chapter 103
Katie
I woke up, but for the first time, I wasn’t alone.
Mason was sleeping soundly next to me.
After we’d kissed, I’d pulled him into my bed and we’d fallen asleep in each other’s arms.
“As long as you’re with me, you’re safe. And you’re home,” Mason had said.
When I kissed him, it was like coming home.
So comfortable, so natural, so secure.
But we hadn’t taken it any further than that.
I wanted to, and judging by the way Lily had pawed at me, I knew she did, too.
But I couldn’t, not without knowing what would happen next.
I’d panicked a bit when Mason asked me to come with him to the Constantine Packlands
I thought back to Quinn’s words about Xander and the baby and wondered if there was any way in hell he could possibly be the father.
If there was even the slightest possibility, then moving to his packlands with his own f ucking brother was pretty much insane. Then again, he hadn’t given any indication that he recognized me or knew who I was when he’d seen me. So that didn’t make sense, either.
Mason stirred next to me.

When he turned over and saw that I was already awake, he smiled sleepily.
I pushed his long hair from his face.
“Good morning, sleepyhead,” I said.
“Good morning,” he answered.
“When are you leaving?” I already missed him in my bed, and he hadn’t even left yet..
“Tomorrow morning. Are you coming with me?”
As soon as he asked, Lily stirred inside me.
She’d made her presence known the first time he’d asked, too.
“Do it,” she seemed to say.
Her messaging was so d amn confusing.
First she’s telling me to trust Xander and Zane, then she’s telling me to go with Mason. 1/3
Maybe she really was just a h o r ny b itch.
And who could blame her really?
Mason and I had gotten so close, and who even knew the last time she’d gotten any.
Or if she’d ever gotten any
“Can I take today to decide?” I asked Mason
I couldn’t let Lily’s persistence influence me. Not when it would change so much for me and Stella.
“Of course,” he said, getting up from the bed.
I watched as he put on the shirt he’d discarded before curling up with me, trying to memorize every ripple of his muscles before they disappeared again.
“As much as I’d love for you and Stella to come, I don’t ever want to force you to do something you’re not comfortable with.”
“Thanks, Mason,” I said.
He always knew how to comfort me.
“Of course. And as much as I wish I could stay here and be with you, I need to go try to figure out this family s hit. Before it’s too late.
He kissed me on the forehead, and then he was gone
Xander
“You really think bringing Mason back with us is a good idea?”
I’d been waiting for Zane to ask me this question.
