Chapter Seventy Nine
It was very surprising that they had arranged all these in just a few hours.
“What is this?” | asked, still in awe of everything.
“A date between the three of us,” Thane answered. “I told you | was going to try make this work.".
| had never heard of a date between three people, but this attention... I could get used to this.
“Nothing like a midnight snack in the middle of the woods,” Thane said as Axel droppedon my feet and |
walked forward.
“How did you plan all these in a matter of hours?” | asked.
“It will be worth it if you like it.”
“Of course | love it!",
“Then that’s all that matters.
Axel took a seat, and Thane leadsto my seat, being the perfect gentleman by drawing o a seat for me,
before having his own seat. | could really get used to this.
“Hope you are hungry?”
“l am starving.”
“Good”
It was fun; we all engaged in little chats about very random things, and at this moment I felt like | had known
these people all my life.
“Axel,” | called.
“Huh?”
“You've never spoken about your parents before I noted. From the look in Axel’s eyes, | knew it was more
complicated than I thought it to be. “You don’t have to if you aren't comfortable with this,” | added quickly.
“No, is okay,” he says, but | don’t think it is; | was ready to do anything to move on from this topic. “They had
both been banished; the last | heard from them was ten years ago, so | can't really tell what position they are in
now-or if they are still alive,” he answers, but his answer raises more questions in me-questions | couldn't ask
because Axel wasn't ready to answer that yet and | didn’t plan on invading into his personal matters.
“It must be lonely living without your parents.”

“Yeah,” he says, still giving nothing away.
“I was thinking, maybe it’s tyou join us during official meetings,” Thane says, maybe to change the topic-I
couldn't tell.
“What meetings”
“There are always regular meetings held between Alpha’s and other pack leaders to discuss further plans or
solve disputes. | think it’s tyou got involved in the pack matters too. Usually the Alpha is always present with
their Luna,” Thane said, and | couldn't be more pleased.
“That'll be really nice.” | responded. But of course | knew who must have taken my position before now. I didn’t
need to think too much on that.
“Riley, have you tried reaching to your wolf side since you chere?” Axel asked, and | shook my head.
“No, it won't work,” | said. | didn’t like talking about my wolflessness. 1
“Actually,” Thane began, “You are mated to an Alpha, to me...
“You said it yourself; the mark would be nothing but a scar; we aren't actually mates.”
“We followed sprocedures; maybe | was wrong,” Thane said with a shrug.
“What is that? Is the big bad Alpha finally admitting that he can be wrong?”
They both chuckled at that, and then Thane rose.
“Come,” he says, and | give him a puzzled look before taking his hands; he leadsout of the little space into
the woods. Our only source of light was the moon and those very beautiful stars. “We would never know till you
try,” he says. His voice is reassuring, and | actually think it could work. | didn’t want to raise my hope or his. | did
try this a few times back in the Windborne pack, and | was always left in tears. It had never worked, not since
that once when I had been so angry.
“Close your eyes,” he says, and despite the protest rising in me, | do as he says, “Do you feel a presence inside
of you?”
Nor
“You have to try Riley,” he says, and I inhale, trying to reach anything in there, but no matter how hard | grab, |
end up with nothing-because there was nothing in there. | felt the tears of frustration building up.
“Stop this, okay, it doesn’t work, it won't, I've tried” | said. Thane took off his jacket and then his shirt.
“What are you doing?”
