Our footsteps echoed in the hall as we walked, emphasizing the silence between us.
Cole had just asked me to be his mate, and this time it didn't feel like a joke. What kind of mess was I in?
And what was going on with my wolf? I had gotten it at training, I was sure, and yet I didn't have any answers about it. I asked Cole, but he didn't seem interested in it.
So now I just wanted to get to my room and wait for Bryson, because something didn't feel right.
We finally reached my door, and I breathed a sigh of relief, that is until he stepped forward and began to open my door.
"Um, I can handle it from here," I told him quickly.
"Nonsense," Cole said with a wave and his typical smile. "I need to make sure you do what you should and rest. You did just pass out after all."
