Chapter One Hundred and Fifty One
“How is that healing up?” Axel asked as he shrugged off his jacket.
“It's only a bruise now; that ointment must be really good,” | responded.
| had informed him earlier that | needed to speak to him, so | waited for him in his room.
“So what do you want to talk about?” he asked radiantly. He was doing this purposely; he was acting like nothing
had happened last night.
“I want to talk about last night.”
“What about last night?” he questions.
“You know what happened last night; why are you pretending like nothing happened?”
“Am 17”
“Yes, you are.”
“So, would you prefer | go announcing last night's incident to the whole pack to prove that something did
happen?”
“No, the problem is you don’t even seem worried about it.”
Axel turned to me. “Not everyone shows emotions like you do. | am worried about him, and | spent the whole day
researching to find out what must have gone wrong with him, and | cup empty. Thane feels guilty about last
night, | am supposed to help you take your mind off things.” he explained.
“You are right; I'm sorry. That was not exactly what | chere to speak to you about.”

“Before Bailey went on the ‘mission’ | had been speaking to her... about Thane.”
“That's new, Bailey and you... chatting,” he says, clearly amused.
“We weren't exactly chatting; it had been that tshe visited to offera deal in which she was £ generously
going to letbe Thane’s mistress as she took my title.”
“That makes more sense,” Axel admits.
“Have
you noticed anything strange or rather... different about Thane?”
“Aside from last night?” he questioned.
“Generally, | mean”.
Axel watchedas if trying to discern where this conversation was going.
“He is strong really strong. Bailey had said he was as strong as two Alpha wolves combined, and then, his speed-
everything about him had always been different. Tellthat you noticed that too.”
“I don’t know what you are talking about.
“You know, and | know it.”
“Okay, maybe he is faster and stronger, so what?
“I don’t know, | just feel like it's all connected to last night's incident; maybe it was a part of
him...”
Axel cutoff. “That is not a part of him, at least not a part | had ever witnessed.”
“You know what? Forget it.”
“Riley, don't be mad. | know you want
to help him; | want to help too, byt,
