Theo awkwardly glances here and there and tries to avoid her piercing gaze.
Charlotte was playing a game with him, he knew that. A few minutes after he realized that this girl could indeed be his mate, Charlotte instructed him to accompany Samantha and look at what is needed for their warriors. She could have chosen anyone else but she didn’t. In fact, he is sure that Nicholas has already given one such list to her.
Since his Luna asked him to do it, he will. However, he’d be lying if he said he complied solely because of that.
The girl with red eyes was the reason behind his compliance...
She is walking in front of him, just one step ahead. He can smell her. Her smell is strong and musky.
He was expecting her to shout at him, to scream and ask why he didn’t recognize her as a mate. But she didn’t. She kept walking till they were away from the prying ears of others.
And then she turned.
Theo’s breath got stuck in his throat as his eyes clashed with hers.
