18 Realization

"Ash? What's wrong?" Seth turned to me when he noticed that I made a full stop. My knees began shaking and I can feel my stomach turning as anxiety eats my half.

My breathing heavied and I can hear my heartbeat right in my ears. Drumming fast and loud. My wolf whines and prays that I shouldn't go inside, she's afraid to lose her mate tonight.

'Are you okay? Why are you scared?'

I jumped when I heard Aiden on my mind. I guess he's still in the office and the wolf-proof room didn't stop the mate's bond from flowing my emotions to him.

I embraced myself and started calming down. I should block my feelings to stop it from going through him. Once I succeeded, I responded to him.

'I'm fine. I almost tripped, that's all.'
