After wandering around for nearly an hour, I ran into the border and told a guard that I had gotten lost. After convincing him that James is my Mate, he led me back to the pack house. Now we wait standing at the door for someone to answer. Thankfully, Gail opens up and looks at me, then the guard. "What are you doing back so soon? I thought Theodore was taking you on a tour around the pack grounds?"
Before I can speak, the guard asks authoritatively, "You confirm that this young lady is mated to Alpha Grant?"
Gail pulls me in. "Yes, she is. You can go now. Come on."
She shuts the door and I drift into the kitchen where Theresa is. Gail follows behind me. "You're back early," Theresa comments. "Where's Theodore?"
"I left him."
Gail places her hands on her hips. "What do you mean you left him?"
"I ran from him after making his sister cry," I say and sit myself down on a stool. "I got lost. That's why a guard had to bring me back."
"You made his sister cry?"
I sigh and turn to face them. "His sister was James'...lover. I just wanted to talk to her, but she started yelling at me, saying she loved him, that I took him away from her and shouted for me to leave, so I did. I don't know. I panicked."
"Now why would you go and talk to her in the first place?" Gail asks, walking around the counter.
