All Chapters of Discovering the Wolf: Finding the Bond Mender: Chapter 71 - Chapter 79

“Really?!? Care to share?” She says and I grin at her playful tone.“Not sure I can…they were a little…risky 🤫.” I fire back, hoping it’s coming across as flirty and not sleezy.“Oh, now my curiosity is well and truly peaked – you have my full and undivided attention. Give me a little hint.” She texts back instantly and I know I’m on to something.“Well, they involved a certain she-wolf…and some very hot and…stimulating kisses” I send back quickly.“You know I can leave if you want some alone time with your…phone.” Anders voice cuts through my focus and I clear my throat – I don’t want to break the banter building between Wills and I but I can’t put off Anders either.“Give me five minutes.” I mutter as Wills text pops up.“Stimulating kisses you say…we should explore that more – dreams can sometimes be premonitions of things to come 😉.” I feel my neck get hot with her reply – I would very much enjoy a repeat of last night. Anders sniffs indelicately letting me know he can smell my

By the time everything is done its late afternoon, so I log off and start to get ready for dinner and meeting my – maybe – grandfather. I’ve just gotten out of the shower, a towel wrapped around my body and another around my hair, when I hear a door slam, and the sound of heavy, angry, pounding feet up the stairs.I poke my head out of my bedroom door to see Thomas home from his shift, storming down the other hallway to his room his phone to his ear. “Oh sure – nothing was going on...it really looked like it with his arm around your neck and his hand on your ass. Do you think I don’t have eyes and that I’m that stupid?”I can’t hear what the other person said back or even who the other person is but whatever they did and said has Thomas madder than I have ever seen him.“No, I will not ‘just listen’ – you have been chasing me with this mate bullshit since the moment we met, as if it’s some magic cure for dating and cheating…”Well, that clears up a lot – it’s Anders for sure.I really

“Oh, my goddess, she looks just like Juni.” She utters and sobs again, leaning into my chest as I fold her into my arms holding her as she breaks down and trying not to breakdown with her too. I purr a little to give her extra comfort, to help calm her down as she rides through the range of emotions she’s feeling.It’s been so incredibly hard, not have a single word. To not know if Juniper’s ok or not, to feel our bond to her strained but intact, to know she’s out there still but be unable to pull on that tether to find her. And now, when I was starting to think we would never find her we are gifted with this – a granddaughter – a connection.“Sera, there’s more. Look closely at her eyes.” I direct and she pulls back sniffing loudly as she zooms in on the photo of Willow to see her mismatched eyes.“She’s a Toniar.” She states, looking back at Solomon holding the case secured in her hands, her mind connecting the dots. “You brought the book, didn’t you?”“I did. It’s a good way for us

Florence, the owner of the restaurant has a large round table for us, settings all ready and two wine buckets on the side with bottles chilling in them, along with a small drinks table as well. We have used her restaurant more than once for confidential or council meetings, so she is used to the set up and need for absolute privacy now.“Where should we sit?” Wills inquires, standing awkwardly by the table, her hand running across the back of a chair, nerves showing again – and all I want to do is give her a hug. But I’m not sure if that will help or if that is what she actually needs.“You can sit anywhere you like, but I would recommend facing the door, that way you won’t have to turn when they enter and it’s the safest position in the room.” I move around and pull a seat out for her, letting Conall and Thomas decide where to sit. They move to the right of her, leaving the seat on the left empty for me to take. After offering drinks, I pour us all water and then sit down, taking her

Anders and Sandy unpack the trolley, taking plates of food and placing them down in front of everyone before pouring wine and retaking their own seats. Sandy’s eyebrows raise and she smirks when Ander steps deftly around her to claim the chair open beside Thomas.On the plate in front of me is a perfectly cooked steak, some sort of cheesy potato stack and a side of almond sprinkled broccolini. It looks delicious and I am hungry, but my nerves are still making my stomach churn a little, so I decide to take a sip of the wine instead.Dad’s voice has stopped and there is silence in the room again – slightly less awkward this time – and we all take some time to eat while Alpha Gerald and Luna Seraphina processes what they have just heard.“So, you never actually saw Juniper at all, not even a flash of her or her wolf?” Seraphina’s soft voice trembles as she poses the question, she already knows the answer to.“I’m afraid not. All I heard was Willow crying and saw lying there covered by th
