Chapter 34: Briggs

After what happened the night before between Theo and Ayla, I wasn’t expecting him to make an appearance today. I would figure out some way to appease Kylee about it, but I was getting tired of having to deal with her.

But more importantly, I was worried. Really worried.

Theo was falling apar

I had thought about telling his parents what exactly was happening with him more than once. In fact, I was planning on telling his mother after I had spoken to Ayla in Sablemane. But then the fire happened, and Mrs. Walport’s murder and things just got even crazier.

So, I would deal with Kylee for a while longer if it kept her out of Theo’s hair.

Kylee’s cousin, Mina, would be there any minute, and I was waiting to greet her. I had just spoken to a pack member when the most amazing scent hit me. I turned to the door and found a gorgeous face staring back at me, as frozen as I was.

“Mate.”

I was across the space in three strides. My hands went to her face as my mouth took hers. I probably should have said something to her first. Perhaps introduced myself. But she was kissing me back. Her arms were wrapped around me. So I didn’t care. Neither did my wolf, Malcolm, who was happier than he had ever been.

“Kylee,” Mina said, “I just found my mate.”

She looked up at me with the most beautiful blue eyes.

“Oh my gosh,” Kylee squealed. “You’re joking. That’s amazing. That means you get to come live with me. You can be my second.”

Mina’s expression changed slightly as she looked at her

cousin.

“This is so exciting. Come on.” Kylee grabbed her hand. “We have so much to talk about and get planned out.”

Oh, hell no. She wasn’t about to drag my mate away from me thirty seconds after we’d found each other. I stepped between them.

“Kylee, can we please have a few moments?”
