DamonFinley was beyond frustrated with my presence but that wasn’t going to make me leave, I worried about her the whole time. Now that I could feel the bond completely, I couldn’t get her out of my mind and the fact that she could and would hurt herself drove me insane.“Finley?” I asked as I knocked on her bedroom door. She had gone to shower forty minutes ago and dinner was waiting. She glared at me every time I told her to eat because now she actually ate three times a day.I opened the door and looked at her empty room, the bathroom door was closed and I instantly worried. I could hear her heartbeat but that was all I could hear. I didn’t really want to invade her privacy but I also didn’t completely trust her not to do anything stupid.I opened the bathroom door and there she was laying in the tub with her eyes closed. The bathroom was filled with steam and I couldn’t tear my eyes away from her naked body. I could feel Axel in the back of my head as he tried to push forward urg

DamonFinley watched me with disbelief as I drove towards Northern Kingdom International Airport. We were silent in my truck as she kept staring out of the window and then glanced at me. I drove towards the last hangar and she raised an eyebrow when I parked the truck inside and climbed out.“Should I carry you out?” I asked her when I opened her door.“No,” she said and climbed out.“Good evening Mr. Woods, the jet is ready and fueled,” Jeff said as he took our luggage from the truck and headed towards the jet.“A jet? Seriously?” she asked me as she stopped in front of the stairs.“What else were you expecting?” I asked her.“No red carpet?” she asked and I laughed.“I’ll have them prepare one for you when we return,” I said to her as she laughed harder.“See that you do,” she said pretentiously and I laughed as she smiled at me.I followed her up into the jet and sat down in the seat I always chose. She looked at me and I patted the chair next to me as she reluctantly sat down.“We

DamonAxel didn’t want to leave and we’d been arguing for the past hour in my head. He liked the way Finley was here, the relaxed care free manner in which she slept with no nightmares, she laughed more and she even had a hint of a tan.I was also afraid that once we went back she’d revert back to her old-self and I had to admit I loved the new Finley. There was also the matter of my little truth I had to tell her and I had no idea how she’d react to it.The bond was strong, especially now since we’d consummated it and the only thing left to do was to mark her at an acceptance ceremony, but for all intents and purposes Finley was as good as married to me and she didn’t even know it.I felt very conflicted. Elder Isaac was planning my engagement to Chastity while Elder John was planning my engagement to Nina and I was bonded to Finley for life. There was also the little problem of the wolves hunting her and that’s why Axel was arguing with me.“The sooner you mark her the sooner the th

DamonI waited until Finley was asleep and walked to the guest bedroom and closed the door behind me quietly. I checked the footage and swore under my breath as I paused the video, they were all wearing masks but from the way they moved I knew they were wolves.I couldn’t really track their scents as they had broken into her house on the Thursday night and their scents had already faded by Sunday night when we returned. I closed the door behind me again and checked on Finley before walking over to her house.I let Axel push forward and gave him partial control since his senses were better than mine. We looked around the house and he caught the scent of a wolf. I followed it outside through the back door and into the open back yard.I followed the scent for about an hour through the trees as it mingled with other wolves and the scent disappeared as I exited the trees. I could see faint tire marks in the ground where they had parked their car and I looked around in the dark.I wouldn’t

Damon“She’s in trouble,” Archer said as he put his phone down on the counter.“How sure are you?” Jared asked him.“She asked me to give Sebastian a hug and a kiss,” he said and I looked at him.“Did you hear anything else, any sounds, what else did she say?” I asked him.“That she’s with a friend and won’t be flying to Los Angeles to see me,” he said, “she never said that when we spoke over the phone.”“Jared, get your guy to trace that number Finley was calling from,” I said to him.“On it,” he said and held his hand out for Archer’s phone and walked outside.“What exactly did she find in order for her to leave?” Archer asked me.“The Council installed cameras in her house, this is how we handle all protection details, she found the monitors in the spare bedroom,” I said to him.“Do you love her?” he asked me.“Yes,” I said without hesitation. It was true though, I did love her.“Tell me everything you know, who would want to take her, because if someone wanted to hurt her they wou
