Chapter 77: Ayla
Theo drank the last of his coffee and stood up. He came over to the sink and washed the mug. It was a small space, and we stood only inches apart. I focused on the coffee in my cup. He dried the mug and put it away before looking out the window over the sink.
“I guess we’re both trying to learn from all this,” he said gently.
I rested my hand on his forearm. I accepted the tingling sensation I knew I needed to avoid, but I couldn’t help it. The room stood still for a time. Until Theo reached up and pushed my hair behind my ear, cupping my cheek. Our eyes locked.
“Ayla…”
He was interrupted by the sound of a loud engine approaching the house. He looked toward the door.
“Are you or my parents expecting anyone today?” he asked.
“Not that I know of,” I said. “Could it be one of the warriors?”
He shook his head. His hand went to my shoulder with a gentle
squeeze.
“Wait here.”
I did as he said while he left the guest house. Even if he had found me, surely Conner wouldn’t dare come barrelling up the pack Alpha’s driveway? It wasn’t long before I heard voices drift through the screen door. I went to look and saw Theo speaking with a man. They seemed to know each other, so I assumed it was safe.

Wrapping my cover-up around me, and walked out to meet them. As I got closer, I recognized the man. It was Beta Harry, Alpha Torin’s Beta.
“Ah, there’s the VIP guest,” Beta Harry said, reaching for my hand. “How are you, Ms. Ayla?”
“Beta Harry,” I replied, “it’s bee

a long time. It’s good to see you.”
“You as well. And you looking as beautiful as ever.”
I shook my head. I forgot how much of a charmer Beta Harry was. It had been several years since I had seen him last.
“I didn’t think you were coming until next weekend?” Theo commented.
“I got freed up early. When I heard Torin was getting a book written about him, I had to come and make sure he doesn’t exaggerate things in his favor too much,” Beta Harry teased.
“Ha,” Theo scoffed. “More like you two will battle over who remembers what correctly.”
Beta Harry chuckled. “I better head in and surprise your old man. I’m looking forward to sharing stories with you, Ayla.”
“Me too,” I replied with a smile.
He made his way into the house, leaving Theo and me behind.
“I should go get changed,” I said. “It doesn’t look like I’ll be getting a swim in this morning.”
“Looks like,” Theo said, rubbing his neck. “I’ve got to head out. The patrol will be in place within the next hour. If you head into town or

the city, let Briggs know. Or me. We’ll make sure someone is close by.”
“So I guess that doesn’t mean I’m stuck here?” I joked.
He looked confused. “Why would you be stuck here?”
“Nothing,” I said. “But, um, I was planning to go into the city for a little while tomorrow. Zeff will be in town and wants to meet up.”
“Okay,” Theo nodded. “Just let one of us know when you leave.”
“I can do that,” I said.
I went back to the guest house and changed. I packed everything up as well so I could move into the main house later. My phone pinged on the nightstand. It was Kingston checking in. Again. I sighed and shook my head. I messaged him back. I smiled when he replied. He promised to take me for a night out as soon as I returned.
I had just grabbed my work bag when I heard Beta Harry from the other room.
“Knock, knock,” he called.
I left the bedroom. “Beta Harry, I was just on my way over. Is everything okay?”
“Yes, yes, everything is fine,” he said kindly. “I just wanted to come and see how you are doing. I heard it’s been an interesting few months for you.”
“Yeah, I suppose you can say that,” I expressed. “But I’m doing good.”
“Good,” he said. He indicated toward the door, so we could walk to the main house together. “And what about your family. Are your sister and
