Maverick stepped through the thresh hold of the door, his eyes instantly finding mine. All that anger from last night had vanished because all I felt right now was thankfulness that he had been there for me through that pain and although he physically didn’t hold me last night somehow I knew he was there, easing the pain from the outside of the barn. He took his eyes from me to the twins, his jaw clenching before returning his stormy gaze back on me and without a word he walked straight past me. I swivelled on my heels to face his retreating form, confusion hitting me head on. “Mav?” I called after him, a pang of pain hit my chest at the lack of acknowledgement. He was angry and that was evident with each silent stomping stride away from me, I know last night our drama was heated but I thought that after he had been there to help me through the pain that followed our drama that we could attempt to communicate on a civil and grown-up level. Although I didn’t want to do that last nigh

“Mav” I called after him, I was itching to move and follow but at the same time I wanted to truly try to keep from starting another argument with him less than twenty minutes after calling a truce with him. “Where the fuck is she” Lucas’s livid tone cut me from my calm resolve, Forcing me to break out of the spot I was stood in and into a run. the attempt at staying put was futile as I rounded the side of the house and in to the front yard only to come face to face with two hostile and ready to throw down boys. “I’m only going to tell you once more, leave before I throw you in the damn boot of your car and drive you off my land myself” Maverick threatened his entire body so visibly tense. “what’s going on” I cut through the thick hostility in the air, hoping in someway my presence might break the ice between the two boys and there show of dominance between each other. “Nina” Katarina let out as she climbed out of the passenger side of Lucas’s car and with her words Lucas sighed wit

“Mav” I began to panic as I turned in his hold, his eyes where golden so brightly lit by his wolf as they staired back at me. I raced through my clouded mind. It felt odd, like there was fog surrounding my entire brain and forcing me out. I sifted through the memory of the past minute trying to figure out the reason for the drastic change in not only me and my surroundings but of Maverick’s sudden stone like behaviour. And then it hit me, the growl I had heard moments ago whilst I was consumed in everything that was Maverick wasn’t one that I had grown accustomed too. I franticly glanced around us seeing that we were alone, no Levi and no intruder.“That wasn’t you who growled was it?” I asked and he shook his head. He looked tense, concentrated even. Concentrated on what? I don’t know.“Me?” I asked and he nodded the thick bob of his throat visible as he gulped in the weird tension that now settled between us. I found myself staring intensely at every detail in the action as he swall

Nina’s Pov- I stood at the top of the stairs unsure of what room would be Levi’s. I know the room opposite the bathroom was Mavericks his overpowering scent was literally drawing me to it. I took a deep breath and sniffed the air, God I felt ridiculous doing it, but I caught the familiar scent that I was looking for, his scent was faint and overpowered by that sweet yet manly scent that was so intriguingly Maverick. I followed the light scent of what I could only place as spring and a touch of sweetness like berries of some sort. I followed Levi’s scent towards the room one door down form Maverick’s, I didn’t know why but I found myself pausing outside his door, like the room had some magical entities that invited me in. my fingertips reached out wrapping around the doorknob and I groaned out loud maybe if I peaked in to the room then the need to enter would dimmish a little. Oh god I was physically fighting with myself in order to avoid embarrassing myself again by doing somethings a

I entered the kitchen with a drag in my steps. Couldn’t Maverick understand where I was coming from? Couldn’t he understand that I was processing everything as best that I can, and I can’t skirt around certain topics because he simply doesn’t want to hear it.“He will be fine once he’s cooled off sweetheart” Levi grabbed my attention, he was sat in the same spot only instead of shovelling a sandwich into his mouth he was happily crunching away on an apple. “I promise I tried not to listen in, but it was kind of hard with the hearing that I have” he chuckled, his light amusement was his way of trying to lighten the dampness that Mav and I’s drama had caused.“Am I wrong?” I found myself asking as I dragged my feet across the kitchen in order to plug my phone and charger into a socket.“There is no right and wrong, this is new to both of you.” he answered, and I turned to face him.“Do you agree with Maverick? That what I said was bullshit?” I shot another question his way, I don’t know
