CHAPTER 71: ISADORA

We thankfully managed to get back into the pack house without being sighted.I couldn’t imagine how embarrassing it would be if we met a guard or a maid on the way. They’d take one look at us and immediately know what we were up to. We reeked of sex, and it didn’t help that I had grass in my hair and pieces of tree bark digging into my scalp.I tried to pull them out as we headed for the room, but I couldn’t get them all. Thankfully, Elias ran a bath for us, and while we sat in the massive tub, my back to his chest, he pulled out the little pieces from my hair.I tried to protest at first, but once he started running his fingers through my hair, every protest died on my lips.There was something calming about his touch, coupled with the fact that I was practically pressed into his skin. It was the most calm I’d felt in a while.“All done,” he whispered after a few minutes of silence. “Your hair is as good as new.”He placed a soft kiss on my collarbone and I snorted.“My hair is far f

CHAPTER 72: ISADORA

When I woke up, Elias was already out of bed and dressed.I cleaned up and found him in his office, speaking to Carlos. They fell silent as soon as I walked in, but I was able to hear a bit of their conversation and I heard Felicity’s name being mentioned.“Is she still being a menace?” I asked and there was silent for a moment before Elias spoke.“Quite the contrary actually, we don’t know where she is. She hasn’t been sighted since last night.”That was not what I expected to hear, but somehow, I was glad. It was about time she cut her losses and disappeared.“That’s a good thing, isn’t it?” I asked, fighting the urge to smile. “She’s gone.”“Yes, she is, but it’s weird that she accepted defeat so easily.”I opened my mouth to speak, but Elias beat me to it.“Erina will take you home.”I raised a brow. “What about you?”“I have some work to attend to today. I’ll see you after.”I stared at him for a long minute, hoping he’d say that it was just a bad joke and he would be going with

I stared at the scene in front of me and the first thing I felt was guilt at how I’d acted all day.He’d been planning this surprise and I’d been sulking simply because he hadn’t come to the house with me. I felt like such a bitch.“Is this a joke?” I whispered softly and he shook his head, hand extended for me to take. “Come, little wolf.”“But the council… they refused.”“True, but we only need one council member, and that’s what we have.”“Elias-”“As much as I love verbally sparring with you, baby, I really want to get this over with.”A light chuckle left my lips and I found myself moving towards him slowly. I didn’t want to move too fast, for fear that I would blink and it would disappear before my very eyes. This was everything I’d ever wanted, and as I looked around, I realized he’d taken inspiration from the little planning I’d done before everything went to shit.Daisies and lilies littered the ground we walked on, just like I wanted, and we overlook the lake. It was somethi

CHAPTER 74: ISADORA

I wasn’t sure how long I was out.As I slowly came to, I couldn’t help but feel a wave of irritation at the crickets chirping outside and the discomfort of the couch.It took me a long minute to realize that I couldn’t hear any crickets, and I wasn’t on an uncomfortable couch.My eyes flew open immediately and I saw him… my mate. Elias sat on the couch, his eyes trained on the window in concentration, but as soon as I moved, he turned to me, and I felt a wave of relief so great that my knees buckles.It was only then I realized, that I wasn’t feeling my emotions… I was feeling his.“Are you alright?” he asked, his voice soft, anxious even.He stood to his feet, slowly making his way over to me, and I felt his worry, I tasted his concern. When he brushed my hair out of my face, I felt his guilt.“It isn’t your fault,” I whispered and his brows furrowed for a second before his confused look was replaced with understanding.“You can feel me.”I nodded. “Your emotions are very… strong.”T
