His words were a soft balm on the pain | was feeling. But | needed to get a little space. So I slid off his lap, and |
saw a flash of hurt flash in his eyes. "I like him too. But my wolf actually feels the sabout another, so |
understand." | slid next to him and grabbed his hand. "But what did you mean about an opportunity?"
Regret flashed in his eyes and then they faded to his normal brown. Rowan was back. "Hi." He was struggling
with something.
"Hey." | smiled and grabbed his hand. "What's wrong?"
He sighed. "What I'm about to say will make zero sense and | know already it isn't fair, but it's how | feel, okay?"
| turned to face him. "Okay."
"I don't like that your wolf likes this unknown male." Hu huffed out a laugh. "And like | said, | know I'm a
hypocrite. Okay, | do, but | wish you both just liked me..."

| listened as he explained and smiled, but it was a little sad. "I feel exactly the sway. But we can't change
our wolf's mind. They have to figure out their own feelings, just like us."
Rowan nodded and then growled. He grabbed my face and kissedagain, making my eyelids flutter. "I wish all
of this was over. So that our wolves could spend ttogether, so we could spend ttogether and really see
this through." He leaned againstand | heard him pulling in my scent.
"We still can." | offered, but he pulled back and | saw something new behind his eyes. He looked a little lost with
a mixture of guilt.
"Actually..." He pulled back and shook his head.
"What?"
"Your father had this idea..."
| felt those words hit, and immediately | was on edge. My father always had plans. "What is it? | know you're
trying to easeinto it, but just tell me."
He nodded. "You father knows that you are going to have to get close to Brandon.
| know you dad is on edge about it but he won't tellwhy." 1
| nodded. "I promise to explain it to you when all of this is over." | pushed that to the side.
Rowan stared atand then kept going. “He toldthat eventually, you will have to get close to him, and
havingaround will just get in the way." "Why do you think that?"
"Because | won't like it." His voice dropped to a growl. "I won't like it at all. Even as it stands, | might just kill
him."
"Why?"
"Because you are menat to be mine." He stood and was panting. His eyes flashed to his wolves and then back to
his. His claws descended, and then he paced away. He was shaking as he turned to stare at me. | watched as he
tried to calm himself down, and finally he settled. "Sorry." He shook his shoulders out and ten cback,
settling
next to me,
"Okay...I don't know what that means for us." | looked down at my hands, dreading his answer.

"It means | have to stay away. And it means I'll have my own acting | have to do."
"Rowan, | need you to just lay it all out forhere. It's nothmaking sense." My mind was still spinning with his
confession and now, with all these plans inside of plans is making it harder to follow.
"You dad thinks | need to stay away from you. Until you finish school...until you crack into Vince's defenses.
Being sad about your father's death, but being supported bywon't make you vulnerable enough for Vince
and Brandon to think that you are easy prey." | nodded. "But he has gone a step further." Dread settled in the pit
of my stomach. "He wantsto give into the council."
1 felt my face pale. "Give in how?"
"He wantsto create space from you and then allow the council to think they are convincingto accept
their chosen mate."
"What?" | yelled and jumped to my feet. "I'm going to kill him." My fangs snapped down and Rowan smiled.
"It's just pretend.".
"You are mine." | whirled on him, grabbing his face and kissing him.
