Chapter 193

"Adrian, are you listening to me?"

Patric kept talking to me, but my mind was somewhere else.

We were in the car and heading to the pack house. I called Patric on the way here because I needed to talk to him about something.

"Adrian." Patric called out my name again.

As I removed a cigarette from the packet, I muttered, "I am all ears."

Then I put the cigarette in my mouth to light it.

Reaching for the cigarette and lighting it with his lighter for me, Patric said, "No, you don't."

The way his silver-colored lighter ignited the flame made me feel as though I was experiencing the same thing on a deeper level in my chest.

Before I found out the truth, I was fine, but now I could not seem to accept anything.

It seemed as though everything had changed all of a sudden.

My thoughts kept going back to the way Natalia was responding to another man.

Why did she not try to distance herself from Max in the same way that she did with me?

And that healer! He dared to flirt with her in front of me.
