Chapter 24

Sean

I was in my office, engrossed in pack matters with Clark. I just had a meeting with the Council of Treasury and like the previous meetings I had with them, I felt I aged up ten times because of it. The team was always a pain in the butt, and I am glad Clark was beside me to assist with things. 

All of a sudden, a strange feeling tightened my heart. I felt unsettled under my skin and I couldn't help but hold my chest. My wolf inside me nudged my thoughts, like a silent idea that our mate might be in trouble. Clark noticed I was uneasy and leaned in, his eyebrows showing worry. "Sean, something bothering you?" he asked.

I paused, my eyes quickly looking at the window as I said quietly, "Can't really figure it out, but it's like there's something... off around Mallory." My words felt unsure, much like the feeling itself.

We shared a look that showed we both understood. We went to her room, silently praying that she was there and everything is good.
