"What happened to him?" I whisper, sadness squeezing my heart.


    "He''s been struggling since the incident. Don''t worry, we will get him back," he reassures, rubbing soothing circles on my back.


    "I see Mason is a little ray of sunshine again today," a beautiful blonde woman rolls her eyes and nces back towards Mason''s direction as she reaches the doorway he''d just left through. She holds a duffle bag in one hand and her other rests protectively on her swollen stomach.


    "Sophie," Theo greets, his tone happy, "let me formally introduce you to my bond. This is Josie. Josie this is my big sister, Sophie," he grins proudly.


    "It''s good to see you awake," she gives me a warm smile, and to finally meet the girl that''s stolen my baby brother''s heart,"


    "Soph," Theo groans.


    "It''s nice to meet you," I smile.


    "I brought you some clothes, they should fit you. I think we were about the same size before I started growing this one," she says patting her rounded belly affectionately. She doesn''t look much older than me and I wonder how old her


    bonds are.


    "Thank you," I say as Theo takes the bag from her.


    "Get dressed, the rest of the family are waiting to meet you downstairs and I don''t think you want to meet them in a towel," sheughs.


    "Soph, I don''t think that''s a good idea, she just woke up," theo objects.


    "What and you think it''s better to leave her here alone with you lot? She needs time to recover and she will do that much faster sitting in a chair, sipping tea and eating sandwiches with the family rather than you all trying to make up for lost time with your dicks, because we all know that''s what you''ll do," Sophie rolls her giggle. I like her already.


    "Fine," Theo huffs, "we will be down in an hour,"


    "Make it 30 minutes," she grins and walks away. Theo shuts the door behind her.


    "Sorry about this," he grumbles.


    "It''s fine," I reassure and take the bag from Theo.


    "Let me help you dress," he says trying to follow me back towards the bathroom.


    "No, I can do it. I have to do these things for myself, doctors orders," eyes and I


    I dress in a in blue T-shirt that matches my eyes and pair it with a pair of ck leggings. Unfortunately, I have no underwear so I add a white zip-up hoody in an attempt to hide the fact I''m not wearing a bra.


    "Did any of my stuff survive the st?" I ask as I leave the bathroom again.


    "Some, we have saved everything we can. Your clothes all stunk of smoke so we will need to rece all those," Luke answers. I nod, trying not to dwell on how much I lost We all survived and that''s what''s important.


    "Hey, what happened with my heat? I didn''t still have it did 1?" I ask, mortified at the thought of them having to deal with that.

    "No, it stopped. Don''t worry, we didn''t have to develop a sudden kink for


    somnophilia," Luke shudders and Iugh in relief.


    "Hey, I''d have done it if I needed to," Theo shrugs.


    "You are such a gent," I tease.


    "I''m always willing to please you, Mdy," he bows drainatically making me giggle.


    "So I assume this is your family home, Theo?" I raise an eyebrow.


    "Yes, it was the safest ce we could find on such short notice,


    "It''s beautiful," I smile.


    I notice Axel standing by the window, watching out of it. I join him, standing by his side and wrapping an arm around his waist, his armnds on my shoulders and


    he moves me in front of him, holding me whilst we watch the wolf darting towards the trees in the distance. At the sight of the majestic animal, a word rings clear in my head "Mine!"
