The White Wolf Series Book 4 – CHAPTER EIGHT – Mate?

(Sophia’s POV)

“Come on, Fia,” my brother sighed. “We are late.”

I turned around to look at him. He was leaning on the door frame with his arms crossed over his c*hest.

“Why are you waiting for me?” I asked. “You can go downstairs. I will be there soon.”

Lex rolled his eyes at me. “I am not leaving you alone. Hurry up.” “Fine,” I mumbled as I bent down to zip up my boots.

I was a little bit nervous. Stella kept stirring and I could feel the tension radiating off her.

‘What’s wrong?’ I asked her for what felt like a millionth time today.

‘I don’t know,’ she mumbled. ‘Hurry up, Sophia.’

I furrowed my eyebrows and stood back up.

Why was she so nervous? Why was she hurrying me up?

“Done?” Lex asked, making me look at him.

I nodded and took a deep breath.

“What’s wrong?” he asked and I could hear a hint of worry in his voice. “I don’t know,” I mumbled. “I’m a little bit nervous.”

I approached my brother and he wrapped an arm around my shoulders. “Don’t be, Fia,” he said, giving me a small smile. “You can leave whenever you want to, okay?”

I nodded and smiled back at him.

Lex moved his arm away from my shoulders and took my hand in his. He led me toward the stairs. The further we walked, the more Stella stirred.

What the hell was wrong with her?

“Why is Stella so tense?” Lex asked, looking down at me.
