Chapter Twenty-Three: Twin bond

Jason

Tossing my clothes into my leather backpack, I pulled the zipper closed. It was considered

rude to go to another shifter’s territory without letting them know first but I couldn’t take

the chance of something happening to Tillie because she didn’t know what was going on

I hadn’t packed much, just enough for a few days should I need it. Ryan was downstairs, I’d

had to order him out of the room when I had found the picture of my mate. It had taken me

a moment to realize what I was seeing and the markings in the woods behind her. But when

I had, my blood had run cold and I knew that I needed to go to her.

Tillie didn’t know it, but she was in danger. This wasn’t a fellow wolf shifter, no, this was a

bear. I knew that if I were there to put my hand against the tree that the beast’s marks

would be bigger than my own hands.

After Ryan had left my office, I had reached for my cell phone, only to remember that it was

charging in my room. The run to my room had passed so quickly. The way that I had

bounded up the stairs had to make the others worry but I needed to talk to Tillie. To make

sure that she was okay.

If anything happened to her, I didn’t know what I was going to do.

I had been waiting to find my mate for so long and the thought of having her ripped away

after only a day wasn’t one that I wanted to have. Yet, I couldn’t shake the worry that

something was wrong.

Shoving the door open, I all but ran to my nightstand. Grabbing my phone off the charger, I

looked at the screen, letting out a breath. Tillie’s name flashed across the screen with a

missed call notification and even though I didn’t know for sure that she was safe, I felt a

little better knowing that she had tried to call me.

I swiped my thumb across the screen, pressing the phone icon to call her back. The tin-y

ring filled my ear before the sound of her voice made me grit my teeth. The cheery tone

that she used on her voicemail wasn’t what I wanted to hear right now. “Hi, you’ve reached

Tillie. I’m unable to take your call. Leave a message at the beep and I’ll get back to you.”

“Tillie, call me back.” I begged. It wasn’t something that I was used to doing but goddess, I

was worried about her.

Pressing the red button on the screen, I ended the message before trying again. I knew it

was useless. She didn’t answer and the phone went to her voicemail again.

What if she was hurt, or had been captured? What if I never saw her again? Would Jason

and Travis forgive me if something happened to our mate? Would I be able to forgive

myself?

I should have just tied her to the bed this morning.

Sure, she would be pissed at me, but at least she would be safe. If something happened to

her, I didn’t know what we would do. We had just met her, but Tillie was everything to me. I

knew the others felt the same. The goddess wouldn’t give us one day with our mate before

taking her away, would she?

No, she wouldn’t be that cruel. Then again, our goddess could be vengeful. I just hoped that

she didn’t take her from us. I didn’t think I would be able to keep from going feral if she took

her away from us.

slung my bag over my shoulder before moving over to Travis’ duffel bag and picking it up

off the chair. Making my way to the door, I opened it before stepping out into the hallway. It

was quiet, but then again, it was late. It was also the last day of the weekend so most of the

pack members would be out living it up at the club, looking for their mate or at least

someone to keep thern warm for the night.

Letting the door close behind me, I made my way to the stairs heading for Ryan’s room.

Pulling my phone out, I thumbed through my contacts, looking for Alpha Branson. Lifting the

phone to my ear, I waited for him to pick up the phone.

It was late and I hoped he would answer but I wasn’t expecting him to. It was one of the

reasons why I was getting us ready to get out of here. The phone went to voicemail and I

closed my eyes, letting out a low growl.

“What’s got you all snarly, alpha? Are things not going well with your mate?” Maddison

asked and I opened my eyes, looking at Travis’twin She was wearing a pair of short black

shorts that molded to her slim hips. She had on a neon green sports bra that

did little to hide her full breasts.

I tucked my phone into my pocket, shaking my head. “Everything is going fine with my

mate, Maddison.”

Her eyes flicked down to the bag on my shoulder and then to the duffle bag in my hand.

“Really?”

“Yes,” I said, shifting the bag in my hands before stepping around her. “Thank you for your

concern.”

“Did you know that twins share a bond, alpha?” She asked, stepping to the side to block my

path. “When something happens to my brother, I can feel it. Even if he doesn’t want me to.”

“I was unaware that you two were so close.” I said, gritting my teeth. Maddison had never

shown much interest in her brother and I didn’t know what she was getting at.

“My brother and I aren’t close. Growing up apart does that, but that never stopped the bond

that we share.” She looked up at me, her green eyes narrowed into slits. “And things are not

going well for the three of you and your mate. An alpha like you shouldn’t have to deal with

any more stress. A mate shouldn’t take you away from your pack.”

She brought her hand up, resting it on my chest as she bit her lip. Batting her long dark

eyelashes up at me.
