CALEB I had been away from home for a few hours and in a long time as I have been conducting business from home in recent times.

For some odd reason, my wolf was restless. The last time I felt like this was when Aiden f*****g Black tricked Valerie away from me. But why now? I had already called home thrice, checking in with security to ensure that Valerie was well and within sight, even though she had wandered into the woods all by herself. She was no prisoner
