Mate bonds.” He says, as if trying out the word. “Actually…” “What did you want to speak about?” I demand. They’re
“Let’s meet at the institution to further discuss. There’s a lot I can’t say over the phone.” She says, “Just call me when you get here.” And with that, the line goes dead. Maddox and I share a look, and I shake my head. I don’t like the sound of Evelyn’s tone. I’ve been uneasy about Aeliana being

“I’m going to kill you,” I say, using the pack link. His lips pull into a smile and he nods at her. “You’re welcome, she looks great.” Great? No, she looks phenomenal. That dress clings to her like it were made for her, it shows every perfect curve of her body that nobody should see. This is jus
