Loiza's POV:
FINALLY! He took the bait! Even though I am gathering intel I needed this badly! His scent of fresh rain and pines! I've been dealing with so much since we arrived that I haven't even really acknowledged him as it SHOULD when meeting your mate. Since we arrived he noticed that I did not need this right now, that I needed time. I never even held his gaze to long to make sure not to connect us so much. But there was always his scent, if I was holding back It was for the sake of my pack because this is what we do, even if we find our mate, we put it to the back burner if there is an emergency.
So I had to endure the pain of everything I was going through AND not be able to have him. His scent was so strong, and I can tell he was making it radiate more to mess with my head...
