We part in the early evening, right after the sun sets. I try not to be too passionate in my kisses, or I risk tipping off Colt that I'm doing something riskier than what I had hinted at.
I'm only taking a small pack that attaches to our larger packs; the rest is staying with Colt. I assumed my plan should only take a day or two, so I told Colt he could come looking for me in four days if I didn't return. I thought he would push for three days, but he simply nodded and wished me luck.
As I walked north along the border between the two packs, I wondered if Colt let me leave too easily. Maybe he also had a risky plan that he didn't want me to know about.
It was completely possible, but since I was planning on taking a big risk, I couldn't really fault him for doing the same. We were mate
