Chapter 26
Damien didn’t only feel lust towards Alora, Damien’s feelings had always been very deep for Alora and her wolf Xena. From the first time Alora had opened her eyes and met his gaze, on that riverbank she’d washed up on so long ago. This was something he was never fully able to explain to himself.
Damien could feel Zane held even deeper feelings towards Alora and her wolf, there was also a touch of sorrow. Damien had only ever received two answers when he had asked Zane why he felt the way he did.
The first answer was, ‘They are the most important thing to us in the world, and the second, “They are missing an important piece of themselves.‘ Whenever Damien asked Zane why they were so important or what that missing piece was, Zane would either
refuse to answer, or say he did not know.

Damien had this instinctive feeling Zane knew the answers, but for some reason he wouldn’t say them. Damien knew he was abnormally possessive of Alora, it’s why he had been feeling restless since Alora turned eighteen a few days ago. There was the potential she would meet her destined mate today.
Damien didn’t know what to do with the jealousy he felt at the thought of another wolf being destined to be with his Alora. Of course, some of his restlessness could be attributed to his wolf Zane and how he was feeling. Zane had not wanted Damien to leave the Pack to attend this university.
Zane had wanted them to stay, so they could continue to guard Alora and her wolf. It hadn’t helped that that was what Damien had truly wanted as well. It had taken getting several promises from his family before he consented to leave and attend the
University.
They were going home soon, today was the first day of their final exams. It would take three days, the first two days were the
written exams, the last day was for the final ranking in fight training Unlike his high school, their final fight was only witnessed by
those attending the University and the University’s officials.
While Damien became lost in his thoughts about Alora, Xander went into his suite. Xander didn’t bother turning on the lights,
Damien’s windows were letting in enough left over moonlight he was able to see the entire room.

Once Xander confirmed the female wasn’t in the sitting room, he made his way to the large double door doorway that led into Damien’s bedroom. Once he entered, he felt the soft feminine form of a female draping herself against his back.
Xander didn’t react violently and rip her off his back as he wanted to, no Xander chose to be a gentleman and resist his urge. Xander was thinking this female was lucky she ran into him and not Damien, he wouldn’t have been so polite.
“Oh Damien,” Came the accented seductively purring voice. The female’s nose buried itself in his neck, and he could hear her breathing in his scent. “I’ve waited so long for you to return…” the words suddenly trailed off as she sniffed at Xander’s neck again.
Suddenly the female jerked back and away from him. “You’re not Damien!” Came the shocked feminine voice.
It was then Xander recognized her voice. “Ah, its first year Alpha Feronia Clemente Bernardi, of the Second continent’s Apennine Mountain Pack, the third daughter of Pack Alpha Aloisio Marchetti Bernardi.” Xander said, revealing his knowledge of the female’s identity,
The Apennine Mountain range was located in the southern boot of the second continent. This female was only six foot seven, with voluptuous curves and a pale olive skin tone. She had acres of wildly curly dark chocolate hair that reached her hips. Her eyes were an inner ring of dark chocolate with an outer ring of golden amber.
‘She had high sharp cheekbones, a slightly narrow face with an angular jaw, and a long straight slightly sharp lupine nose, and a small pouty mouth with full rose colored lips. Xander would admit that Feronia was indeed an enticing female. Sadly, for her though, neither Xander nor Damien were attracted.
Xander, because he already met his mate, and no one could match her for attractiveness in his mind. For Damien, Xander knew

Chapter 26
he had never wanted any other female but Alora. Damien never said it, but Xander wasn’t blind. He’d seen the reaction Damien had to Alora after every hug he’d been a witness to over the last two years.
Xander had seen the suppressed heat in Damien’s eyes as he had zed longingly at Alora during the few visits they’ve had during this time. Xander knew that feeling, he had it for his own male Beatrice, even after she rejected him, his attraction to her only increased every time he saw her.
With another audible sniff, Feronia realized who she was talking, not that it really took much for her to confirm the identity of this wolf. Only Damien’s Beta Xander would be allowed in his bedroom like this.
“Why are you here Beta Xander Frost Stonemaker?” Feronía asked Xander, her irritation at Xander not being Damien clearly heard in her tone.

“Because I’m nicer at throwing unwanted females out of my Alpha’s suit than he is. Damien would have just tossed you off his balcony without your clothes.” Feronia let out a squeak of outrage at his words. “I, on the other hand, will allow you to dress and leave through the front door.”
