Chapter 160

I message James and ask him to get the jet ready, then I go pack

As I’m tugging my luggage out of my room, James appears out of nowhere, dressed in fresh clothes

and holding his own luggage.

He hurries over to take mine as well.

“Where do you think you’re going?” I demand, probably more of a bit ch about it than I need to be.

But between my grief and my wolf, all of my emotions are heightened in ways I’ve never experienced

before,

“Where you go, I go,” James announces stubbornly, and the look on his face is just daring me to argue.

I got off easy with James earlier, I know this.

His wolf probably outweighs mine by a hundred pounds-although James still isn’t as big as Aaron-and

when I shifted and impulsively attacked him, he didn’t even shift himself. He’d remained human and let

me take out my anger and anguish on him. If he had decided to shift and fight back, I probably

would’ve been dead in a matter of seconds.

“Did Aaron put you up to this?”

My wolf is wishing Aaron was the one standing in front of us, declaring he planned to be where we are.

I shove her down, and warn her to stop longing for things that cannot be.

“What difference does it make?” James asks defiantly.

“I guess you got me there,” I mutter. “Okay, come on then, but don’t slow me down.”

“Wouldn’t dream of it, Luna,” James replies in amusement, following me down the stairs with both our

bags.

We’re soon in the car, and James is driving the SUV out of Rathborn packlands, his hands sure and

steady on the wheel.

For a moment, as I take in his handsome profile, I can’t help but wonder what it’d be like to have

someone like James as my mate instead of the ever mercurial Aaron.

My wolf doesn’t like it, and I can feel her rumbling her displeasure in my chest. I reach up to rub my

stemum, frowning.

“Everything okay?” James asks, cutting his attention between me and the road.

“Everything is fine,” I assure him. “Just getting used to sharing my insides with a wolf.”

James barks a quick laugh at my description, and I realize it’s a sound I haven’t heard often.

“Yeah, I guess that’ll take some getting used to after thinking you were only human for so long.” He

pauses, and I can see his mind turning over his thoughts. “I always thought if your wolf ever rose, she

would be fierce and beautiful.” He cuts me another quick look, and I feel my cheeks heating. “I’m glad I

was right.”

I don’t know what to say to that, so I don’t say anything, but James is smiling, I think at the way I’m

blushing.

I turn my attention out the window.

It’s only been a few days with my wolf, and already people are treating me differently.

Yes, maybe James had softened toward me in the weeks before Liam betrayed me, however, it wasn’t

that long ago when he used

to look at me with nothing but contempt, used to show his displeasure at having to deal with me.

Chapter 160

It shouldn’t have taken almost dying, losing my child and then gaining my wolf for people to see the real

me, to treat me with

basic humanity.

No one could ever see beyond what I represent

No one, except maybe Aaron.

I curse myself as soon as the thought comes up, unbidden, and think my wolf probably has something

to do with it.

The only thing she wants is her mate-well, that and to protect me at all costs-but I can feel the depths

of her longing radiating into me, confusing my own feelings where my husband is concerned.

I can’t afford to be confused.

Aaron is gone.

I don’t know where he is and James won’t tell me.

This was what I wanted, right?

Maybe we haven’t officially gotten divorced, but Aaron walked away, telling me nothing.

His silence, however, tells me more than words ever could.
