ANA
The moment Alpha Tyler left, the arm holding my waist withdrew like it was never there. An unfamiliar feeling of loss emerged in my heart, making me feel slightly dispirited.
However, I quickly gathered myself, blaming the mate bond for toying with my emotions.
“Thank you.” I said softly, not daring to raise my head to see what expression the Lycan King had on.
He grunted in reply before walking away without saying another word. I stood there, staring at his back intently.
The Lycan King was not obliged to help me regardless of whether we were mates or not, but he still did. Even the people I had known all my life would only watch as I suffered, but he behaved in the opposite manner.
I could not understand why, but my fear for him seemed to lessen at our brief interaction.
