I joined the meeting after I had taken a shower, almost whimpering when I washed her scent away.
“Alpha Isaac, are you listening?” one of the Board members asked.
I hummed and glanced up, Logan showing himself in my eyes. “No, I wasn’t,’ I said.
His eyes drifted to the other members, unsure of what to do next.
William, Conner, and Liam were all there. Joanne was the only one missing, but they said she wasn’t allowed because she wasn’t a wolf, nor was she marked yet.
I hoped she would reach out to me, still having this tether between us, but it seemed she managed to shut me out. Clever little bird.
“As we were saying, Joanne was taken by her mate, says William.”
I nodded, knowing all too well this wasn’t something uncommon.
“She was under the care of William. Why wasn’t he contacted?”
