Eve’s POV Malik walked closed to me, his fingers occasionally touching mine, it was a subtle but constant reassurance. Dorian moved ahead as usual, his gaze steady, I followed both their footsteps, “I don’t like this at all,” I whispered, keeping my voice low. “Don’t you both feel watched?” Dorian’s eyes flickered to mine. “Tonight we are seeking something deeper than the eyes of the forest. Focus wolfie.” Wolfie? I truly am wolf but why did it sound so rude and dismissive, we’ll have this conversation when I’m ready. I nodded, my gaze swept across the whole place, I felt my wolf stir in anticipation of what laid ahead. Every step I took felt heavy, and I knew it was only because we were slowly closing in on answers I wasn’t sure I was ready to face just yet. Hours had passed sin
