Beta Damien stopped hugging me. He stared at me, and probably seeing my stunned face, he turned away from me as he faked a cough, with the top of his fist covering his mouth.
"Sorry for being inappropriate, Alpha Anastasia". He apologized to me, but I knew he was hiding something from me.
There was no way the beta Damien I knew would hug me out of nowhere.
So, I was tempted and unblocked my mind reading power. Reading his mind twice was not a bad deal after all;
'Would she find it weird if I told her that I was the little wolf she had saved? Back then, I was so bent on and focused on chasing off all the rogue werewolves who were preying on our shadows' pack. I chased them all the way to the human cities, but their other members ambushed me and I got injured fighting twenty of them at once'.
