ALEXANDER. “Don’t look away from me.” I grabbed her chin and pulled her to look at me. Her body trembled, her lips kept quivering. I wanted to kiss them, but didn’t want to scare her. I wanted her to be comfortable with me. To stay with me, yet she kept trying to leave. So, I actually just let the silence sit between us. She had a lot of baggage, and I wanted her to help her carry it, but she wouldn’t let me. She wouldn’t tell me why she was crying. She wouldn't let me touch her. She…So, I watched. I let her cry next to me. Allowing her to wallow in her sadness while serving as an absorber and listening to her silent words. Watching her chest rise and fall. I wanted to pull her to me so bad and be a chest for her to lie on, but I respected her privacy, and we sat there in silence until she was done.After I drove her home, I was glad she even let me know where she lived. Once the car halted, she tried to escape instantly, but I grabbed her hand. Shivers jolt up my spine, and

LENA. Don't panic, Lena. Don't break, not now. Tears welled in my eyes after I had to send Alexander away. I couldn't be with him. I couldn’t be with my mate. I had to pretend like I didn't want to see him. Getting to my apartment, I dropped to the floor, unable to stop the tears from flowing down my cheeks.

Being with him even for a few moments always restored balance within me. I knew he was all I needed to heal, but he wasn't mine anymore. He no longer belonged to me.

ALEXANDER. I found myself in my car heading to a different pack from mine. I never really crossed the pack border, not even for vacation, I was always working. But this time, I crossed it from some kids who threatened to ruin my reputation if I didn't. I really want to see their mother, I really need to know how she trained those kids and why they were so sharp-tongued. “Yet, you have never crossed borders for your kids, never!” My subconscious rang at me and I frowned. They were always going on vacation with their mother, begging me to leave work and go with them. It had never been of interest to me. I might say I felt threatened but I knew very well that I could pull strings that would exempt me from those things. “Wait, you are coming for real?” Asked Isna, the female. The boy’s name was Israel and he talked less than the girl. “Yeah, almost at your pack,” I said. “We are on neutral ground.” The boy chipped it and I wasn't even surprised, he was always chipping in to correct
