“Do you know why I wasn’t affected?” She asks me. “I don’t. I’m not sure it’s a Guardian thing. Obviously, I was affected.” She nods again, before stepping away. “Please don’t go, Lily.” She turns and smiles at me over her shoulder. It’s a small smile, but it’s a smile. I’ll take it. “I’m just
His mate? Did he say I’m his mate? “How do you know?” “I’m 18. I knew the minute I saw you after my birthday. It was Monday morning, and you were straddling Lucas, defeating him in your sparring match. Donovan almost killed Lucas that day, seeing you like that.” I look at him, not sure if I belie
I watched Clint for a while after he fell asleep, but eventually, I feel asleep as well. I was exhausted, having stayed awake worrying about him, Cali and Lyle. While he is sleeping, Cali pokes her head in, smiling immediately at me laying on Clint’s chest. I start to get up, but she shooes me back
