Chapter 43
Thane
I’m currently stewing in my office. Legs up on the desk, throwing back my fourth whiskey neat of the night. Yet no longer Burns going down. Telling me I’m close to achieving my ultimate goal. That goal started off as getting Ayla out of my head and has now turned into how do I stay away from her? My time spent with Ayla the woods was perfection, but that on top of what Della said‘ mixed in with why she was taken‘ sugar coated with ‘I don’t do relationships‘ nixed with a helping of this is a shitstorm brewing has my mind turned upside down and my emotions aren’t in check. me to pour another drink.
“I see you’re in here drowning your sorrows or drowning your feeling more like it.” Cyrus throws out smugly like he knows everything as he walks into my office. “I’m not drowningfanything, dick. I’m pondering that’s all.” “Sure. And what are we pondering?” “WE are pondering nothing, Cyrus. I am pondering all of my unanswered questions rolling around in this head of mine.” “Thick skulled, alpha head more like it.” “No, YOU are avoiding Ayla. I am NOT avoiding her, I am just contemplating her. It is different.” “If you weren’t avoiding her, you wouldn’t have asked ME to question her.” “I asked you to question her because I got nowhere, really and YOU are more personable.” “More personable? Please. Just say that people like me better than you Thane. It is a fact we all know.” “Did she tell you anything about why she was kept so long or why she is afraid to stay here or not?” “How about i answer your questions when you tell me why you are avoiding her.” You forget who is alpha here Cyrus? No, your miserable excellence, I do not. HOWEVER, I call it like I see it and I know that you spend a lot of time with her, you reek of her delectable parts, might I add, but here today, you have been nowhere near her. What gives?”

“I will tell you what gives. I gave her a hard orgasm, my face practically buried in her sweet cunt Cyrus.” “Nice. I still don’t see a problem here Thane. That girl deserves thousands of orgasms. She has spent 10 years without. You are the lucky shifter that gets to bury his face between her legs. What is your problem?” “My PROBLEM is that I am undeniably drawn to her. I almost can’t get away from it. It’s killing me sitting here with your dumbass instead of giving her all the orgasms she deserves. AND that’s a problem because this attraction is strong Cyrus. If it is this strong without her being my mate, can you imagine what the fated mate bond would feel like? How can I toss Ayla aside and break her heart when my mate comes along? She deserves better than that. Better than myself.” “I thought you were in a good place with this Thane? What changed your mind AGAIN so rapidly?” “I ran into Della while I was carrying a post orgasm, sexed up Ayla to her room and she reminded me that Ayla deserves better than a broken heart.” “Della? Of course she did. That bitch is crazy about you Thane and NOT in a good way. I bet if you go to her place now she probably has a shrine of you in her closet with a bag of your toenail clippings. “Oh, will you stop with this toenail clipping shit. This is serious.” “I know it is serious. That is why you need to LISTEN to me when I tell you that Della is BAD news for you Thane. She is purposely interfering with you and Ayla because she wants it to be the Thane and Della show. Not the Thane and his little wolf
show.”
