Book 3: Rejuvenation

Hollis

Eva shakes her head. “I just don’t know how we didn’t find each other.”

“It’s strange,” I agree, my mark burning.

When I found her, asleep in the nook of a tree, I looked her over for a mating mark before I even woke her up. All the way over. Not a single sign of the snowflake shape. Not even a red spot that might turn into a snowflake when the swelling goes down.

“But it’s a good sign neither of us found anyone else,” I add.

She grins as she scrapes her red hair up into a bun. We are standing amidst the flow of people, all headed to the spot on the edge of the camp we were told upon arrival to avoid.

“Definitely better.”

That fucking bite sears. I cling to the pain.

I stayed in my wolf form all the way back to camp, pretending I was still under the effects of the Haze. Sniffing Eva, running circles around her, just acting like an idiot. She laughed so hard she had to catch herself on my back a couple of times.
