Chapter 73 "Gentleman," my father interrupted, "we have a bit of a sensitive situation here. And this is, as always, in complete confidence of the Council. As you know, Kyle has been quite vocal about allowing the lone she-wolf trespassing on our land to stay. Not just stay but left alone. Kelsey's been here for more than two years and has finally cforth and relayed her story to me. It's a hard one to hear, and my heart goes out to the girl, but Kyle's protection of her throughout this thas been entirely selfish in nature." That got a few mumbles and whispers.
"That's not exactly news to any of us single wolves, sir. Kyle's marked his scent around her property and been in more than one scuffle over her." I snorted, yeah, that's true, but then Dad and the rest of the Council had been entirely unaware of that, so I gave him a half-hearted glare thanking him for rattingout. It just made him laugh again. He was certainly enjoyingbeing in the hot seat.

And she would need to be properly prepared for challenges before you dive in and do something crazy. As always, we, the Council, would like the opportunity to meet with her and trial her to verify she is indeed a compatible mate for you. In the meantime, we'd ask that she be reassigned to a new office and you keep your distance from each other. If you are certain, we'll move through the process as efficiently as possible." Another growl escaped as my wolf grew agitated.
"I'm sorry Saul, but that will not be possible." They certainly were not happy with my blatant defiance "Kelsey Adams is my mate. My one true mate. This is not a matter of compatibility." Their disappointment quickly turned to shock.
"But you've been in her presence for over two years, Kyle. How is that even possible?" "You should have known immediately." 34.4% Chapter 73 "It's near impossible to find a true mate and not act on it. Two years, Kyle. I'm sorry but she cannot be your one true mate." "Hush down, now and hear it out," my dad calmly spoke. "Kyle ctoalmost immediately upon meeting Ms. Adams. He did know immediately, but given her unique circumstances he chose not to act upon it. We considered telling you all, but as we were unsure of what to do with the girl, and Kyle was making no advances toward claiming her, I opted to keep this to myself." "I thought she was denying it or that she couldn't feel our connection. I didn't know she was just even more stubborn than me." That gained a snicker from most in attendance.
"Look, Kelsey wasn't raised in a pack. She didn't even know shifters were real. She grew up human world." in the "A late bloomer then?" Mallick guessed.
"No sir." They all quieted down. "Kelsey changed for the first twhen she was twelve years old. She was alone and running for her life after two wolves attacked and killed her parents in front of her and then attacked her. She honestly thought that since she was bitten and had no real knowledge of the shifter world, that she was a werewolf." Grumbles began around the room at the thought. Anger over a young pup having no pack. Frustrations over the human portrayal of werewolves. And heartbroken for a little girl alone in the world going through change with no guidance.
"She's been running ever since, keeping this huge secret to herself all this time." "Kyle, that's the craziest story I've ever heard!" 00 "No," Cole spoke up, "it makes sense. It fits with everything she shared withtoo. The tattoo she got covers the damage done by the wolf. She confessed her fear of wolves and a little about why. It all makes sense, even hearing Kyle is her one true mate. The tattoo she drew herself and brought to me. Of course, I immediately recognized it as Kyle's wolf. Even tried to convince her to change it knowing the shit-storm something like that could cause, but she was adamant, it had to be his. Now it makes sense why. At the time, she simply toldit was the only wolf in her life she hadn't feared. I don't think she knew at the twhy." I smiled at him, slightly jealous that she had opened up to him like that, but trying to contain it. Cole Anderson was a good guy and I knew there was nothing between them.

And I had stubbornly been waiting for her and facing rejection after rejection anytI attempted to reach out. Which is why I didn't cforward earlier with my feelings." "A true mate?" "This does change things." "Kyle, if she is your one true mate, the Council will not intervene no matter who she is," Quinton assured me.
