The sound of the wheels grinding against the gravel and the sound of the horses hooves hitting ground did nothing to silence the raging thoughts in my head.Or the burst of anger.Even more so, because Elian still hadn't answered my question. He simply ducked his head down, eyes looking everywhere but at me. The silence in the carriage was heavy. Uncomfortable.A part of me was immensely grateful that he’d put whatever selfishness that might have surfaced aside just to help me find a way back home. Knowing that there would be a possibility of him losing me through all of this. But another very sinister part of me was upset that he’d brought me to the home of a woman he’d been involved with in the past without so much of a heads-up. I couldn’t get past that singular act of disrespect. Maybe to him, he didn’t want me to worry over nothing, yet it had not gone as planned at all. Because Laraba surely still wants him! And I'll be damned if I let her

ELIAN.This was a disaster!Why did it have to be now? At this moment? Really, Lyall?‘What do you mean really? Of course now. You're not the only one who wants to be kissed,’ he grumbled.I said nothing to that, because I was seething. God help me, I was seething with rage at his interruption, especially looking at Anisa now through his eyes, with everything more heightened.Those plump lips. Those hazy eyes. The heavy breathing. The dress that had made my head spin all day since she stepped out wearing it.Goodness gracious.“Are…are you okay?” She asked, her voice a quiet whisper as she winced a bit. I realized then that Lyall still gripped her, his claws digging into her skin.‘You need to let go now, you’re hurting her,’ I quickly said, even though Lyall had let go already before I could finish speaking.‘My bad. Totally not the impression I wanted to make, wife.’Anisa chuckled softly, in

ELIAN. Today looked like it was going to be a good day. Which was why, instead of going into the pack village for duties, I decided to spend some time in the garden. Only the garden had gone wild in the way people liked to call something beautiful when they don’t want to admit they’ve neglected to care for that particular thing. Albeit it’s been some days since I last came here when Lyall first shifted after the ceremony, needless to say, it was a mess. I liked to always be on top of things like this whenever I had the chance, but with my entire body feeling like it was collapsing within every day since getting Lyall, Anisa acting strangely and the vagueness surrounding portals and finding her way back home, tending to the garden was the last thing on my mind. My eyes trailed the path that led back to the pack house which was now sprouting new weeds and vines. The flowers that were usually tended to and well managed were now disorderly with stalks growing too long and flowers bur

“You’re not going out today?” she asked, peering up at me as she popped the grape in her mouth.“No,” I said. “Not today.” “Your head?” she asked.I nodded. “Still pounding. Milena advised that I needed to slow things down. She mentioned that my emotions aren’t fully settled and just a single spike can make Lyall shift. And I don’t want anyone in the pack to know that I can’t control him yet.” “Oh…” she trailed off, her eyes softening as she stared at me, before her eyes shifted above me, her focus distracted.Lately, she does that a lot too. It unsettled me more than I admitted.“It's okay. I've got you. Always,” then she pressed a light kiss to my throat, and I struggle to contain myself, mostly because she was speaking to Lyall now. “Hello, Lyall. Trust you are good there? How are the breathing exercises coming along?”‘Hello to you too, wife. I suppose I'll take what I'm being handed, but I'd prefer to at least hol
