This intense change in him was hard to believe but I had to try and follow along. I enjoyed his warmth and kindness and he saw everything I felt during the separation. I saw how the guilt was crawling over him every second biting him here and there with its presence, never ending.

I grabbed Elizabeth before she could get close enough. James had insulted the alpha of my pack in front of a hight ranking warrior. The only reason he didn’t have his lungs on the floor was because I had much more strength than
