Book 2: Chapter 8

Odette’s POV

I wake up to the sound of Zach talking into the phone in hush tones, a slight frown appears on my face as I pull my body to a sitting position. This has been going on for days now, he talks into the phone late in the night and he always looks worried.

Grabbing my night robe, I pull out of bed and make my way towards the balcony. The moment he sees me, he immediately ends the call and plasters a fake smile on his face.

“What’s going on, Zach?” I ask him.

“It’s nothing princess” he replies, “sorry for waking you up, you should go back to bed”

It is clearly a lie, I wish I could read his thoughts just like he reads mine but I don’t know why he blocked me out. I can neither read his thoughts nor even know what’s going on in his mind.

“What does that even mean?” I ask again, “since you got back, you have been acting strange. Tell me, what’s going on with you, babe? Is there an issue at the pack house?”

“No, not that” he answer
