Branson POV:
I was relieved to know that Atlas was going to be okay. He was awake and on the road to recovery. In fact, when I talked to him, though briefly, he sounded just fine. If he was anything like me, he was going to be pissed when he heard how long he’s been out of commission, but hey there’s nothing he can do about it.
I sat in my chair on the front porch, wishing both Reena and Atlas were here. Even though they weren’t here for long, they definitely made a lasting impact on this place. I could still faintly scent my beautiful mate throughout the house; while it was soothing, it also made me long for her. We would have to end all the bullshit and figure something out because I don’t think I can stand to be away from her for long periods.
It had been unusually calm today, well
