After breakfast, I, Amber, and Lisa headed into town again. This time to shop for Christmas gifts. Another favorite of mine during Christmas time, buying people's gifts. Nothing fancy or expensive but rather meaningful and personal. Something that shows that you truly know the person you’re giving the gift to.
I carefully placed my hand on his, not sure if he wanted the contact right now. He turned his hand and intertwined our fingers. My eyes were on our hands so I hadn't noticed that he was looking at me.He leaned into where his mouth was close to my ear.
”I was going to put the presents away in my closet yesterday when I saw a hatch in the bottom right corner. I opened it and this laid there. Open it.” I encouraged him. All eyes in the room were on the boxand James. He slowly lifted the top and took out the letter. When he saw what underneath it, his breathing stopped and he swallowed hard.

I stayed silent which looked pleasing to him.” Great. Now punch.” I bit together and clenched my jaw. I raise my right hand and throw a straight punch at the pad Alex was holding. It didn't even move, he didn't bat an eyelash and looked just as disappointed at the lack of strength in my punch as I was.

I turned my heel and ran out of the room and up the stairs until I reached the top floor.
I opened my eyes again to see everyone shaking and bowing their heads, showing their necks. Amber held my hands, stroking them gently. â We can all sense your wolf James, you need to calm down.â Oh fuck. I calmed Blade to where his aura wasnât forcing everyone in to submission and turned back to Alex. âTake her to the dungeons, but sure she's fucking comfortable or you'll join her.â I warned before sending out a mind link to all the ranked members. âMeet me in my office in one hour. Itâs time.â
