Chapter Twenty-Seven: Being kept in the dark
I followed Francine into the kitchen, accompanied by her mate. Questions flooded my mind. I wanted to know why she wanted me to follow her. Was she planning on asking me to cover up her lie to Cindy? I hated the thought of doing that.
Taking notice of the place that I would be staying in, I saw that the light inside was very dim, but still, I could manage to see where I was going. Inside gave me a warm feeling of comfort and made me feel safe. Soon we were in the kitchen. I stood silently, staring at Francine, eager to know why she had brought me there. Also, I had some questions I wanted to ask her.
"This is my mate, Frank," Francine said.
I nodded. Finally, she told me her mate's name.
Suddenly, I found myself asking her about lying to Cindy. I wished she had told her the truth that she was only protecting us from being discovered.
"It was a good thing to do or she would have run off to him and reveal Christian's secret spot," she told me.

I pulled away from Cindy, jumped off the bed and ran from the room. I was not able to take in the shocking information I'd received from her. I spun around the house in search of Francine, until everything around me was spinning. It was as if I was losing my mind. "Reds," Cindy called, worried. "What is wrong?" she asked me, pulling me into her embrace. I pushed her away from me. I didn't want to feel anyone’s touch. I shouted for Francine. I heard her running toward me. The minute she entered the living room, I shouted, "You lied to me! You lied to me." I was disappointed in her. How could she lie to me? Why? I was angry and didn’t care if I hurt her feelings. Her husband rushed into the living room. "What is happening?" he asked his mate, and held her hand. "You said that if I found my father he would give me the Valerian plant to save Christian when you know it's here," I told them angrily. Surprise covered their faces

"No, Cindy," I stopped her, pulling her back into the bedroom. "I need to save my mate," she cried. Tears filled my eyes, seeing the great pain she was in. I wanted to help her save her mate so badly, but leaving the cottage would be a great risk. "Let me get Francine," I told her, pulling my hand from her grasp. "No," she stopped me. "You can't let her and her mate know, or they will never let me save him," she said, pleading with me. I sighed heavily and held my head, not knowing what to do. I wanted to help Cindy, but I did not want to ruin Francine and her mate's plan. If any of Pharaoh's men discovered Christian's home, it would no longer be a secret, and Francine and her mate would be in terrible trouble. Cindy held my face and stared into my eyes, pleading with me to help her. I did not know what to say. I did not want to let her down after she had been so good to me. "Please, just let me inform Francine about this before we lea
The Wolf Without a Name Chapter Thirty: What are these strange feelings?
"Help me put him on the couch," Cindy told Frank. Francine's mate ran over to her and held the red-haired man under his arms, while Cindy held him by his feet. They lifted him onto the brown couch. I stared at the man with the long red hair, feeling a strange feeling rushing over my entire body. I did not know what it was, but the feeling was much different than any I'd had before. It was not the feeling I had felt when I met Josh or that which I felt when Christian protected me. I felt that I had found what I'd wanted all my life, and that was a family—people who loved me and treated me much better than my evil grandmother, Phyllis. "Please help me, Francine," I heard Cindy say. I shook my head, trying to get rid of the feelings that were consuming me and ran over to Cindy to help. It was the worst thing I did. The closer I got to her injured mate, the stronger the feeling got, pulling me to him. I couldn't stop myself from stroking his long red hair.

l could not stand to see the look on my friend's face as she stared at me while tears pooled in her eyes. It was as if I had betrayed her. I could no longer stay in the cell. I had to leave. I had to move away from her mate. "Wait," I heard Cindy's mate call out to me as I ran from the cell. I stood in the kitchen, nervous, and hating what my friend was going through. I heard the red-haired man shouting angrily and banging against the bars of the cell. Soon I saw Francine running into the kitchen with great worry on her face. "We need to calm him down before he allows someone to discover our hideout and ruin our plan," she said. I looked at her, wanting to know how I could help. Suddenly a dark cloud of sadness covered me as Cindy entered the kitchen. I stared at her, wanting to tell her I was sorry for what had happened. "You need to calm him down," I heard Francine say, as she held my hand. I turned my attention to her and then back to Cindy
The Wolf Without a Name Chapter Thirty-Two: He couldn't be
His strong hands moved from my hair and touched the tip of my chin. I closed my eyes, enjoying his soft touch. "What are these feelings I am feeling for you?" he asked me. "I don't know," I said softly, as I opened my eyes and watched his fingers play with my chin. "You are as clueless as I am," he said, as he moved his hand away from my chin, disappointed. "I'm sorry I can't help you," I told him. "There is nothing for you to be sorry about, beautiful," he said. My cheeks became red, hearing him call me beautiful. "No," I said softly, not for him to hear, as I shook my head, reminding myself that he was not my mate, but Cindy's. "What is wrong?" he asked me, worried. "Nothing," I said. Ares smiled at me. Seeing he was harmless, I wanted to free him from the cell, but first I had to let Frank know Ares would never hurt anyone. "I don't understand what these feelings are and why we both share the

"No, it couldn't be. It could not be," I said shocked. "You feel it and I feel it, don't you?" Ares questioned me. Tears started to escape my eyes as the feeling inside me strengthened, trying to pull me back toward him. I sobbed as I held my chest, fighting the compelling feeling. "You are my mate," Ares again said. I wiped away my tears as I looked at the attractive red-haired man behind the bars. "We are not mates," I told him. "Then what are these feelings? Why do I feel the need to protect you and why won't I be able to leave you?" Ares asked me. I could see in his eyes that he, too, was unable to control the strange feeling that possessed our bodies. I stood silently, not knowing what to say. What if Cindy had not told me he was his mate, would I have believed him? What if she thought wrong and Ares was not her mate? No, no. I shook my head as I tried to clear my head of the troubling thoughts. "Te
The Wolf Without a Name Chapter Thirty-Four: Your mate is mine
I was lost in his bright green eyes that were similar to mine. I never realized that I also had beautiful eyes until I saw his eyes. His eyes were mesmerizing. I closed my eyes as he gently stroked my cheek and caressed my face with the back of his hand. I enjoyed the touch of his warm hands and wanted to feel him against my skin even more. I slowly opened my eyes as I felt his hand against my left cheek and again returned my eyes to his. Ares gently moved one of his hands away from my cheek to move my hair from my face, placing it behind my ear. I parted my lips, lost in his attractive features, enjoying every moment of his touch. I could feel my wolf inside me jumping excitedly, happy he was there. I pushed my body toward him, resting my head on his bare muscular chest, feeling his hard chest against my face and wanting to be close to him—closer than I had ever been to anyone. He wrapped his robust arms around me and pushed himself backward, getting comfortable in
The Wolf Without a Name Chapter Thirty-Five: A sudden change of behavior
I started to cry, hating that they were all against the great bond I and Ares were sharing. I wished they believed I was telling the truth. I stood nervously as I saw Francine and Frank returning to the kitchen. "She is gone, all because of you," Frank accused me. "But I did not do anything," I said. "Hah!" I held my left cheek. "Your behavior as a young she-wolf disgusts me," Francine said. I pushed myself away from her and stood sobbing at the kitchen counter. "When will we know if the man has given the Alpha the letter," she asked her mate. "Today," Frank said. "The businessman will be returning this evening to purchase more lumber from me." "Good," Francine said and glanced at me with great disgust in her eyes. "The faster we carry out this plan, the faster we'll get rid of this fool," she said, scoffing at me. She kissed her husband and said her goodbyes before heading to work, as usual, at the devi
