Chapter 28 - Knox

After rounding up our group, we headed over to Manuel’s house. He sounded a little stressed through the link I have to say, though maybe that is because he is worried for his cousin. I don’t know. I know I need to be wary about how I do this as I do not want to be too full on and intimidating to Lola and scare her or upset Manuel with it being his new mate.

Lilah is doing her best to keep me calm. She loves Manuel like a brother, and she does not want to see him getting hurt or caught in the middle of all of this and right now that is exactly what he is.

Manuel opens the door to us. He looks tired, though after a night having just met his mate, I would expect nothing less. Though he is only wearing a pair of shorts and I cannot see a new mate mark on his neck, which surprises me. Dan when he met Indie had marked her as soon as possible, as do most couples, thought I know Manuel had been nervous last night.
