Chapter 41

Ethan's POV

I left Logan's pack, a knowing smile tugging my lips.

“He is playing hard to get huh?” I asked myself mused. Although he hasn't agreed yet, I knew it was just a matter of time. He was just trying to put on a thick skin but my prying eyes can see through it all. Behind his facade, I could see a man cowering in fear and wrestling with his own fear and insecurities.

My mind slowly drifted to Isabelle. What was I going to tell her?

I could picture the look of disappointment on her face when I tell her Ethan hasn't approved the alliance yet.

My heart ached at the thought and my mind tried to block the imagination.

“What is this that I'm feeling?”

“When did I start caring about Isabelle this much?” I asked myself, bewildered.

I couldn't deny the growing feelings, stirring within me. Feeling I never intended to develop. Whenever I am with her, my heart raced in a way I couldn't explain. I'm too lenient with her that I sometimes fear she can be the source of my downfall li
