#Chapter12
Restless, I tossed and turned all night, not really getting proper sleep. The tugging sensation of knowing they were so close was pulling me to seek out my mates, knowing they could replenish my powers. It must have been the early morning hours when I heard the twist of the shared bathroom door.
My mind instantly became alert as I looked in its direction. I let out a breath when I realized it was Kalen and not one of the others. He stopped when he noticed me sitting upright in the bed before hesitating.
/"Did I wake you?/" he whispered, and I shook my head. He looked over his shoulder toward his room before quietly shutting the door. For some reason, his presence didn’t scare me. I found his aura comforting, and I wanted to keep him safe and close to me for some reason. Kalen walked over to the bed, sitting down on it. I moved over so he had more room, and he lay on his side facing me.
/"Sorry, it is the bond,/" Kalen said.
