Chapter Twenty Two
The day went by in a flash, and soon it was already evening.
“You should get dressed now; do you need help with that?” Axel asked.
“No. | know my way around those,” | said, picking out a green gown from my wardrobe. Surprisingly, all the
clothes here were my size, and that was very... creepy.
“The red one”
“What?”
“The red one would be better,” Axel said, and | picked out the red gown. It was a beautiful piece, and | wondered
how much it cost. | imagine it cost a lot.
“You are right.”
I didn’t do much with my hair; | was too nervous to even try, but I left it down, brushing through it a couple of
times.
“Thane is here,” Axel announced, even before | heard the footsteps. Just then, Thane walked in, and my eyes
traveled to him.
“Why didn’t you tell me?” sneered at him.

| hated the blush that formed on my cheeks.
“I told you, | would mark you if it cto that, and as you can see, it finally cto that.”
“You should have toldit was happening the next freaking day; maybe that way | would have been prepared.”
“You won't be as prepared as you are right now,” he says, and though that was true, | wouldn't say it out loud.

“You know why; stronger bonds are formed between mates after the “Joining,”
“But we are not mates, remember?, and It’s rare for any kind of bond to be formed, so if this is your worry, you
should be rest assured.”
“That's not the only worry. | can’t do ‘it’ before everyone.”
It only took a second for Thane to piece it all together.
“Sex? | told you, | wouldn't touch you, not till I had confirmed from the healer that you were ready.”
“Axel said there is always a rise in your hormones; what if you can’t control it?”
To that, he gave no response.
“I see you are fully dressed. It’s tto officially meet the pack.”
