Chapter 38 Has He Changed

• A few days had passed since their return, things were still tense between Elijah and Jackson. Jessica drowned herself in visiting the pack hospital and the new-born pups in the pack with gifts, as well as the elderly with hampers of nuts, dried fruit and honey. Scarlett knew it was a way for her to cope with the tension in the house and she didn’t blame her. She had talked to Scarlett, asking how she really felt but like always Scarlett said she was fine, still not able to tell her mother the truth.
• Each night she and Elijah slept in each other’s arms, the moments between them were not only sexual but every little thing made Scarlett fall deeper in love, a love that surpassed her first love by far. It terrified her as well as made her feel incredibly happy. She was scared that he would one day turn around and call it over, after all, they weren’t mates.
• The ever-nearing Blood Moon was like a heavyweight on her shoulders, several packs would be meeting for the annual mating ball. This year it was held at a pack near London, where once she sort of looked forward to meeting her mate, she was now dreading him ever appearing before her.
