48 Ava: No Great Destiny
Selene’s warm, furry body is a balm to my soul as we cuddle in on the sofa, a random show playing in the background. My eyes drift to the new phone sitting on the nightstand.
Is it safe to use? Could Clayton or someone else have hacked into it, using it as a way to track my every move? A shiver runs down my spine at the thought.
Selene stirs beside me, her head lifting as she blinks in the dimness. Her piercing blue eyes find mine, and I feel the gentle brush of her consciousness against my
own.
You’re being paranoid again, she murmurs, her mental voice a soft caress against my frazzled thoughts.
“Can you blame me?” My voice comes out in a whisper “After everything that’s happened, I don’t want to take any risks that could turn my life upside down again. I just don’t know how far I can trust Clayton.”
I know, pup. Selene nuzzles my cheek with affection. But driving yourself mad with worry isn’t the answer either. We’ll be cautious, but we can’t live in fear.

It isn’t over, Selene points out, ever the voice of reason. Hugging her as she crawls into my lap, I sigh.
“I feel like something’s going to happen,” I admit, reaching up to touch the necklace that’s once again around my neck. Selene nudges it with her nose.
Everything will be okay. Don’t be so quick to assume the worst of that alpha.
Rubbing her ears helps calm down the anxiety
fluttering in my belly, and Selene rolls over in bliss at the attention. We’ve missed each other terribly this past week.
“It just worries me. All this stuff, the care he’s taking–it makes me feel like he’s decided I’m his mate, and he’s just waiting for me to accept it and follow along like a good little she–wolf.” Her fur is soft against my cheek as I rub my head against hers. “I don’t want that
