Chapter 22

Rider gave him another hug.“It’ll be okay.If not now,then eventually.”

Dallas was trying to be hopeful,but he couldn’t count on it.

“Dallas?”Zoya called from the stable doors.

“Yeah?”he called back.

The female alpha wolf walked in and saw Rider.She stopped for a moment,then blushed in a very adorable manner.

“Okay,that’s just cute,”Dallas teased her a little and smirked at Rider,who looked bashful as well.

“Shut it,tiglon,”Zoya snapped at Dallas playfully enough for it to be non-offensive.“We have a question for you.Or the girls have.Are you done here?”

Dallas looked around.There were a few buckets left to wash if he was going to do them all.

“I’ll finish those.Go with Zoya.”Rider shooed him away.

Shrugging,Dallas followed Zoya,who just walked to the back deck of the old house.To Dallas’surprise,three females were sitting at the table,drinking tea.

“Hi,Dallas.”Lark smiled at him.

Erica gave him a little wave and sipped at her fragrant,minty tea.
