Chapter 68: A Change of Plan

*Theo*

The window in my office overlooked the garden. Most of the time, I didn't pay any attention to it at all, but today, it seemed like I couldn't stop staring outside.

She was gone. Really gone this time. And I couldn't follow her as I had the last time she had run away. No, it was better this way. And even though it hurt right now, I knew I would get over it eventually.

With as much experience as I had at being all alone, I knew from the past that I would eventually forget all about her.

I'd forget the shape of her face, how her mouth curled up at the corners when she smiled, the way her eyes twinkled when she was happy.

I'd forget her scent-that fresh, warm smell of all things lovely and inviting.

I'd forget the softness of her skin and how her lips felt so perfect pressing against mine.

Before too much longer, all of that would fade into the background, and someday, when someone said the name

Ciana Black, I'd be able to not feel part of me was missing....

Jake knocked on the door and waited for me to tell him he could enter. "What is it?" I asked him.

"Just a note that Ciana got safely to her pack. The men you had followed her have reported back. They're still there to protect her. That's all." Jake was looking at me like he expected me to look sad or disappointed.

"Okay," I said, acting as if I didn't even care. The lapel pin in my hand seemed heavier now, as if it weighed as much as the rock sitting in my chest.

"Are you all right, Alpha?" Jake asked me.

"Yes, of course I am," I said dismissively.

"Don't you worry about her? Sure, we have men protecting her, but..."

"I have faith that she can handle Raymond on her own. After all, most of the pack simply just didn't know the truth. As long as she can prove her identity, she'll be fine."

"Alright." Jake nodded, but the look on his face told me he didn't agree. "Even if she is fine, how about you?"

"What about me?"

He gave me a concerned glance, but I was fine. I would be fine.

It really was all for the best that she was gone. Staying here would only put her in more danger compared to her pack, and neither of us needed that.
