Chapter 37

Aislyn turned quickly back to Zane, “It was me, wasn’t it?” she whispered. “I hurt him?”

Zane gave her a hardened look.

“That’s why you called me a bitch in the club, isn’t it?” she questioned, sure that he wouldn’t reply. “You were just trying to protect your brother, right?” she swallowed.

Zane nodded once, careful to see where this would go.

“Well you should know, I loved him. The wolf. My… wolf,” Aislyn assured Zane for good measure. “Did he tell you why he bothered being with me at all… when he returned to you?”

Aislyn cleared her throat, trying to keep her emotions at bay.

Zane shook his head, fully expecting Aislyn to keep going she figured.

“Great.” Aislyn shook her head. “So he was just done then? He didn’t lo… care for me?”

“I wouldn’t know,” Zane assured her. “But you are a human and he had no business being out with you.”

“Why do you then?” Aislyn spat. “Why do any of you mingle with us?”

Aislyn could almost feel the lie ready to escape him and so she waved him off.
