Anna now feeling concerned grabbed Christina's hand ," Mom what is it ? You look like you just saw a ghost ?" Tears were now streaming out of her eyes . She sat the paper down flat on the table . Standing up from her chair she started running . After exiting out of the door her wolf jumped out.
Anna jumped up to run after her but just as she did Max grabbed her arm forcing her to stop . " Don't go after her . She needs to be alone for now . " Max was looking sad to now . "What the hell is going on ? I demand one of you to tell me now !"Anna looked back and forth from Alfa Chris who had his head in his hands to Max .
Max let go of Anna's hand . He sat down in the chair closest to her . Grabbing her by her hips he guided her into his lap . " Annistasia .. that man that you described is Jace . He died in a hunting accident years ago . Well at least that's what we thought until now . Jace was Christina's mate , your real father. If that is him I don't know why he would do this. It doesn't make sense that he would kidnap you ... unless ." Anna was shocked so Thomas is my real dad , but Bethany is not my mom ." What if there is a reason behind all of this ? What if he is in danger to ?" She paused she was now thinking out loud ," But why would he take me with him ? I don't understand what the connection is . "
Alfa Chris now standing ," I think we should all get some rest . I need to go to my office . There is a few things I need to sort out . When you head back towards the front of the opening ,there is a hotel to your right . That is where y'all will be staying . I have booked y'all A room on the send floor . Tell the front desk I sent you and they will let you in . After y'all check in I will send someone to give you a tour of the grounds ." Max and Anna stood up . They followed Chris to the door . " If you don't mind I can just show Anna around .I have been here a few times and can't find my way around . " Chris turned to Max ," Yes that will be fine . She starts training tomorrow .Just make sure she knows where the training grounds are because you will not be attending practice with her ." Before Anna could protest Chris had already left . Anna grabbed Max by the arm turning him towards her abruptly ," I thought you said you wouldn't leave me ?" Tears formed in her eyes . Max picked her up into his arms . " I will explain after we get checked in . "
Christina had taken the keys to the car so they had to walk to the hotel . With the sun still barley shining they had to hurry to get there before it got dark . Grabbing their bags from the truck Max shifted to his wolf . Holding the bags in his mouth he gestured for Anna to get on his back . As soon as she was on and comfortable , Max took off running to the hotel .
As they reached the hotel Max came to a stop. For a moment he stood completely still allowing Anna to climb down from his back . Her hands slid through his fur as she slid slowly down to the ground . Max purred at the warm sensation that erupted from her ginger tips traveled through every inch of his being .
In the blink of an eye she let go of his soft gray fur . Walking towards a basket beside the door filled with different types of clothing. She dug until she came across a pair of black athletic shorts . Max was lost in his own thought of her body against his. He yearned for her touch . Something flew thought the air hitting him directly in the face . Max let out a growl as he shook it off his head . Looking up there was a beautiful Anna looking back at him with the biggest smile . He missed that smile . It had been days since she has smiled like that .Dragging him out if his thoughts again she giggled ," Alright wolf shift and put those shorts on . I'm ready to get checked in already ."
