Chapter 44 "I don't even know what you mean when you say pack. You mean like a pack of dogs, a group of animals living together?" "More or less, yeah, though most of us spend more tin our skin than in our fur. And I think of it more like a large close family who all live in the sgeneral area and support each other," I smiled at her example, though, there was struth in that too.

I don't even remember ever having a babysitter or aunt or uncle. Nothing." I frowned. How was that even possible? My wolf growled, and it escaped frombefore I could stop it. Kelsey's eyes widened, but she didn't shift away from me, remaining within arm's reach.
"Sorry. It just makesso angry to think about that happening to you. To think your pack just abandoned you like that. I could never do that to anyone, but especially not a young pup." "I don't know how I could have ever lived with wolves, or wolf shifters, Kyle. I told you before I have always been terrified of wolves, even before the attack. You were the first and only wolf I haven't been scared of, aside from my own wolf of course. Why do you think that is?" Because I'm your mate! I wanted so badly to blurt that out, but something toldthis was not the tfor that. She already had enough to take in and accept without adding that to it. So, I shrugged. unable to speak, and ran a nervous hand through my hair.
"Maybe we should let everything sink in for today and start going through all your questions tomorrow? I really think you need tto process all that's happened. I can't even imagine going through life thinking I was sfictional monster, only to discover there are plenty of others just like you. Somewhere out there you have a pack, and if you want to find them, Kels, I'll make that happen, but you have to know, you will always have a place in Westin Pack."

I had caught Kyle Westin staring atso many times over our last two years working together. It had never seemed inappropriate or uncomfortable, and I always felt like he had just been waiting forto do or say something. I shivered, thinking that's exactly what it was. He had known all along and never once alluded to anything. It shouldn't have hurt to think of it, but it did. I couldn't explain the stabbing pain in my heart when I thought about it. It felt like betrayal, yet I trusted him and believed what he said was true. I still didn't see how I could have been born a shifter and my parents never mentioned a word of it. They had to have known. Why wouldn't they have told me? He was staring atagain. Waiting. Lettingsort through my thoughts and questions in my own time. I was grateful to him for it and as I thought about it, as I looked at him, a surge of something brushed through me. It felt like my wolf, but not like she was fighting for control or to get out. I had this uncontrollable urge to just reach out and touch him.

I know he saw my eyes go wide with shock. He gavea slight little smirk of a grin like he knew exactly what I was thinking. I felt the urgel brush throughagain, and before I realized it, I had scooted closer to him. So, close. Our bodies brushed up against each other and my hand was out and headed for what? Him? His face? His body? I licked my lips at the thought just as it all cslamming into me.
