"Was marrying you not enough?" "Not for my wolf," he said sharply. "He needed something more. Something more permanent." "And you didn't think discussing that was necessary?" I asked, my voice cracking again as I held back a sob.
He cupped my face with his big and strong hands, forcingto look at him.
"I should have... I was wrong about that. I'm so sorry, Silver. I swear, I didn't mean to. I got caught in the moment and then-" "And then you marked me..." I whispered. "I don't have a wolf, so I can't mark you back..." He raised his brows.
"Is that what you are worried about?" He asked me, seemingly puzzled. "Marking me? You don't have to markback. The bond will still work either way." I shook my head as tears spilled from my eyes.

"Silver, you don't have a wolf. You couldn't markeven if you wanted to." I pulled away from his hands, watching as they dropped to his sides; he looked so defeated and I hated that I was the one putting that look on his face.
"I do have a wolf," I whispered.
""I'm sorry, what?" "When I spoke to the Moon Goddess, she toldthat I do have a wolf. She's been kept away because of my magic. It's too strong for her right now and until I can defeat my brother and inherit his magic, my wolf will remain hidden. But she's there, Elliot. She's inside of me. She watched you markand she was unable to participate. She is heartbroken and I'm crushed for her..." He let out a breath I hadn't known he was holding until I finished speaking. He sat back on his hind legs and looked utterly defeated.
"I... I didn't know," he whispered, staring at his hands. "I'm so sorry... I didn't know..." "No, you didn't," I whispered as more tears fell from my eyes. "Because you didn't bother to ask me. You chose to do this on your own and not consultabout it first. If you had told me, I would have told you not yet because I wanted to wait for my wolf." "Silver..." he croaked.
"I know," I whispered. "You're sorry. But that doesn't change anything." I stood up, ready to leave the room, but he stood up quickly, blockingfrom the doorway.
"Elliot, letleave," I demanded, folding my arms across my chest.
He shook his head.
"No," he said stubbornly. "I won't let you leave yet. Not until you hearout for a second." I sighed and relented, a part ofnot wanting to leave him anyway.
"I love you, Silver. I will love you regardless of anything. You are my entire world and I'm proud to call you mine. I'm proud to see my mark on your neck. I know you had a different vision for this, and I'm sorry that I did this in the way that I did. But I'm not sorry to claim you. I'm not sorry to brand you as mine. My wolf is content now and that makeshappy. I know your wolf feels left out, but she doesn't have to because whether she is here or not, she is ours as well. My wolf didn't just mark you, but her as well. He might not have met her yet, but he's already in love with her and that's a crazy feeling forto have. I just found out she existed and I'm already crazy about her because she is a part of you. So, you can hateand be angry withall you want... but I would mark you right here and right now all over again if I could." Tears spilled out of my eyes.

He stepped closer to me, wrapping his arms around my body and holdingclose to him.
"Yes," he toldgently. "I meant that with every fiber of my being. Hovel you, Silver and flove your wolf. Please, don't push us away..." I wrapped my arms around him and brought my lips to his.
"We love you too," I whispered. This conversation couldn't be prolonged any further and I knew now that was marked he could feel my every emotion. Eventually, he was going to askabout what I remembered. He needed to know that he was in danger. "You need to know something." He kissed my forehead and gazed down at me.
"Tell me." I swallowed the lump in my throat.
