Chapter 132

RYKER’S PO.V

There was something intoxicating about Camilla. Maybe it was because I was hopelessly in love with her or maybe it was because she could do no wrong in my eyes. I loved being able to take my time while exploring her body, I loved being able to hold her close right after and know that there was nothing and no one urgently waiting to get our attention. I loved the pace. Growing up, my father had always told me that a man was defined by what he did during times of war but I disagreed, I believed that a man was defined by what he did when there was peace, how he treated the people around him and how he handled his affairs.

I would never delude myself into believing that I was a good man but I treated my family with the respect that they deserved and for me- that was everything. As I looked down at my mate who was curled up by my side with her head lying gently on my chest, I chose to believe that maybe I had done something right and maybe I wasn’t the worst of men.

I kissed her forehead softly and she mumbled a few words before continuing to snore softly. I should have been sleeping as well considering how exhausted I was but sleep eluded me. It felt almost impossible to close my eyes and achieve that peace but I was fine with just watching Camilla. If that was all I did for the rest of my life then I would die a happy man.

I felt a nudge at the back of my mind. It was almost soft and hesitant as if the person was unsure. I instantly pulled down my wall and I recognized the presence as belonging to Riley. I stayed silent not wanting to push her because I knew my sister and I knew that if I pushed her, she would quickly shut down and hide away.

“Are you busy?” she asked softly. “It’s fine if you

I just wanted to know if you were available so that I could talk to you for a while.” I started to speak but she cut me off. “You know what, never mind, I should never have brought this up in the first place. Forget that I even-”

“Riley,” I interrupted and she went silent. “Do you want me to

O come to your room?”

There was a pause. “Yes please, I just don’t know what to do anymore.”

“I’ll be there in a few minutes.”

I broke off the mind link immediately. I looked down at Camilla and while I didn’t want to leave her side, I knew that Riley needed me. I had expected her to reach out to me but she was proud- maybe even more so than me and I didn’t expect her to do it until she was out of options. I must have either overestimated her pride or underestimated how well she thought of
