Chapter 27: Trial

Erik's POV

I know I have a lot to do but seeing my mate sleeping peacefully beside me made me stay for a bit longer. I kept staring at my gorgeous mate, I didn't want anyone to disturb my precious peace, so I blocked everyone on the mind link.

There's something wrong, Liam, my wolf said. I frowned and looked at my mate. She didn't mention anything.

What's the problem?

I can't connect with her wolf. He said. What could be the problem with her wolf? This is troublesome. I should ask Tia about this later.

I kept on thinking about what Liam said and kept staring at her. She turned on the bed, faced the ceiling, and stretched her arms. I pretended to sleep, I felt her stare, and she cuddled close to my body, hugging me. She sniffed my scent and broke the hug. She went to the bathroom and heard the shower running.

I still pretended to sleep when she went out of the bathroom. I couldn't help but sniff the air, smelling her fresh scent from the bath. She smelled so nice that it aroused me.
