Ava’s POV I tap my foot on the concrete floor, my eyes closed, trying to think. I am picturing the layout of the house we are in, thinking of where that Lycan must be. The basement is small. It consists of this storage room and one more open room with two low windows that lead to the backyard. Is that where the Lycan is? Lily stirs beside me and I look over at her. She is laying on the floor, curled up so that her head is laying on her upper arm, facing away from me. Was Caleb really going to reject her? His own mate? Even after I found my mate and made it clear that I wanted to be with my mate? Surely not… My mind wanders back to all the times Caleb and I snuck away to this house…would he think to check here? Cameron does not even know that this place exists. My stomach
