#Chapter 90 – Memories

Jane

As I zoom back across town, retracing the steps I took mere hours ago when I first ran to Linda’s, my mind drifts to the past. The clenching pain in my pelvis is

blinding now, and the only refuge left to

me is the world in my head. My memories

swirl around me in a familiar fog, but one

“Only if you’re sure.” He frowned,

kissing me again, then bending his head to kiss my fresh claiming mark. “I’ll see you tonight. Just call if you need anything.”

“Good luck, Alpha.” I teased, though some of our old joke had died away now that the title actually belonged to him. I couldn’t taunt him about not being in power yet, and every mention of the word was a reminder that his father was gone.

After he left I curled up and tried to nap, but before long my mind started to drift

to my new husband. He’d worn me out

over the last few days, and my body was deliciously sore. I never dreamed how

The more I thought about it, the hotter I
