~Josie~
That feeling of complete forgetfulness when you open your eyes but your mind hasn't clicked in yet...that feeling
is absolute heaven.
As | open my eyes, | find Dad sat next toon the sofa, my legs on his lap as he flicks through the TV channels.
It must be early morning, why were we here. Then, bang.
Like a bullet. It hitsright in my chest.
"Why did you tell him?" My voice stirs from under the blanket, the fan heater next tonow overheatingbut
my finger tips were still cold and | was too cosy to move. He turns to face me, placing the remote control down.
The TV remains on in the background, Dad settling on skind of gangster movie.
"He was asking questions around the pack." He sighs out, his head resting back as he angles it to look at me.
"He was.." Well this is a surprise.
"Hmm, he knew we were keeping something from him, from the outside shifter community. He actually voiced
his opinion on you using silver bullets, | had quite the telling off."
"Really?" | remember when he realised the bullets | used during the border threat, how he wouldn't leave my
side.
"Yes. Knox is a complicated fellow, there are things we do not know. Things that no matter how much dirt I've
tried to dig up on his past, he has managed to keep them well hidden." Dad's tried to dig up dirt on Knox? |
thought he was here as a guest...but an alpha is always security conscious...l get that.
"Such as?"
"Well what do you think?"

"I think he has alpha blood."
"You do?" He sits up more, the possibility clearly something he hadn't considered.
"Yes, Jaxon's injuries...he was lucky to survive. Only an alpha blood could heal those kind of wounds. You haven't
told Jaxon have you?"
"No, you askednot to. Why?"
"He needs Knox. | don't want to get in the way of them, to make things complicated. He is Jaxon's mentor, | don't
want Jaxon to think any less of Knox now." As soon as | say the words sadness washes overand | feel a tear
build in the corner of my right eye. "I'm sure Knox will see the errors in his way and cback for you." Dad's
hand reaches out to wipe away the single tear that was travelling down my cheek.
"Cback for me?" | shift uncomfortably at his words.
"He left last night. He's gone for a few days."
"Gone, gone where?"
"He didn't say. Mum said he was clearly upset about something and that when he returns he will give his report
and leave." Leave...so final.
"But..."
"No Dad, he made it very clear from the beginning he can't do long term, he can't give commitment and | was
fine with that."
""What changed?"
"I changed. | found something out."
"Ah, Alora and Ezra? Yes she said you spotted them and spoke to her about it."
"| just couldn't be like that, | couldn't
keep to the shadows when | wanted
to be in the open. { koa we kad bly

"I've suspected something for sometime."
"Then why would they continue to

"There are things from the past that are best left in the past. If he is your fated mate..."
"Fated mate? Oh con Dad, you don't really believe that's in my future do you.." | can't hide the scoff that
