Ava looked at Ryder, his question had made her speechless.
"I asked you a question Ava, if I ask you to apologize to Lily would you do it?" Ryder asked again.
"Why do you want me to apologize to her?" Ava asked.
"If I said, your apology to her would be the only reason I go public with our relationship. Would you apologize to her?"
Ava looked him square in the eyes and answered, "if that is what it takes to he with you. Then yes, I will apologize."
Ryder cupped her face in his hands and kissed her.
"Wildcat, just have patience okay. I am not going to let you go. You might not know it but I treasure you a lot. Please give me time. Okay?" he requested.
"You treasure me?" Ava asked in uncertainty.
"Yes Ava. You are my mate and I treasure you a lot." Ryder replied.
"Okay, I will leave but where am I going?" she asked him.
"Helena's old house where she used to live before she moved here." he informed her.
