Chapter thirteen

The sunlight filtered into the night room as Claire's eyes flickered open. She was on a soft bed that was filled with the scent of her mate. He smelled of the rain and forest and she loved everything about it.

She hugged the pillow tightly as she drew in the scent of her mate. She couldn't get enough. The smell was faint which indicated he hadn't used the bed in a while.

She got up and stretched her limbs. Thankfully, she was still dressed in the clothes she had put on before coming. So nobody changed her out of it. The thought of someone changing her while she was asleep made her shudder.

She walked over to the window and noticed the snow had started to melt and the sun had started to bring out its head from under the clouds. It was such a beautiful time of the year she loved.

She hated winter because of the cold it brought along with it. She hated being locked indoors. She'd be indoors for most of her life so any opportunity she sees, she makes use of it.

She walked to the closet.
