Chapter 255: Chapter 255 – I Can’t Explain It

Hunter’s POV

“Hunter?” Alex called me quietly.

I looked up at him and furrowed my eyebrows. He was smiling at me. Why was he smiling?

“You can go inside,” he said, making my heart stop beating. “My mom mind-linked me. She wants to see you.”

My heart jumped in my throat and it cut off my breathing. I moved instantly, trying to get to her as fast as I possibly could.

I almost knocked Emma over when I ran into her while she was walking out of the cabin.

“Slow down, Hunter,” Alpha Logan said as he caught his mate.

“I’m sorry,” I blurted out. “I just...”

“It’s okay, go,” Emma interrupted me, giving me a small smile.

She didn’t have to tell me twice. I rushed toward the room, wanting to get there as soon as fucking possible. I missed her. I needed her.

I glanced through the window as I was passing it and I saw her sitting on the bed, looking down at her hands in her lap. My heart skipped a beat.

I ran toward the door and stepped inside. Her scent almost made me fall to my knees.

“Angel,” I mumbled quietly.

She took a deep breath and looked up at me. Her beautiful eyes were filled with tears and it made the pain explode inside my body.

“Oh, Sophia,” I said quietly as I approached her.
