Chapter 48

• An hour later, Cain comes and lies with her on the beanbag. Ten minutes after he has settled, Leroy arrives. Instead of bothering her, the boys fill him in, while Cain's grip on her tightens, pulling her closer to his chest. He is a lycan and Leroy is a nonrelated male, but still. She only recently decided to accept him, so she'll give him a pass for now.
• A couple of hours later, Cielo decides to take her first study break, and that's when the boys start their questions. The exact moment she tells Xander that she's having issues with her memory of the event, he calls her father and puts him on speaker.
• "His beast spoke to your wolf?" Cain questions, while Leroy remains tucked in a corner with a focused expression, courtesy of Ruben. Anything to calm his brother down. If Leroy even took a step closer to her, he'd lift his upper lip in a silent snarl. Considering how many people have tried to claim her in less than two weeks, she can understand his behavior. Still, it doesn't mean she has to like it.
