“How do you know that he was mind-linking Sophia?” Mason asked what I was thinking.

“He has this look in his eyes when he is talking to her,” Hunter said, giving me a small smile. “I don’t know how to describe it, but I know that he was mind-linking her.”

I nodded and looked at my younger cousins.

“She said that we should be nice to you,” I answered his question. “She told me to keep an eye on Mason.”

Hunter snorted.

“She already told me to be nice,” Mason mumbled. “There was no need to tell you to keep an eye on me.”

I raised an eyebrow at him. “Wasn’t there?”

Mason rolled his eyes. Hunter chuckled and shook his head.

“I am worried, okay?” Mason sighed. “She is my cousin and I want her safe. Sue me.”

I understood him completely. I wanted her safe too. I was worried too. The only difference was that Mason’s tongue was a little bit sharper than mine. I knew how to hold back, but Mason didn’t.

“I know that you are worried,” Hunter said. “I can't even begin to explain how happy I am that she has so many people who love her and want her safe. I want her safe too. I promise that neither I nor my family are a threat.”

Well, we would have to see about that.

CHAPTER TWENTY-SIX – Alexander And Mason

Hunter’s POV

‘I miss her,’Holden sighed as I took another sip of my beer.

‘We will see her soon,’I told him.‘Stop whining and focus.’

‘It’s hard,’Holden mumbled.‘I miss her.’

I rolled my eyes and ignored him. I didn’t need him to tell me how much he missed her. I knew that and I needed to focus on something else before I ran back to her.

I looked up at Alexander and Mason. Both of them were sipping their beers and glancing around the diner. Hayden, Danny, and Mike left about half an hour ago. I was a little bit nervous when they left. The conversation was easy when they were here. They asked me about taking over the pack and we talked about video games and sports. It was easy to talk to them and I was glad I got to get to know them a little bit better. Mike was a goofy guy and I knew that we would get along great. Hayden was going to be a great Alpha. He was kind, smart, and calm. Danny was a smart young man who would be a great warrior one day.

“What did Soph decide?” Mason asked, breaking the silence. “Will she try to transfer the magic to you?”

I looked up at Alexander. He sighed and rolled his eyes.

“No,” he mumbled. “She said that she doesn’t want to put me in danger. She is stubborn.”

I wasn’t happy with her decision. I wanted her to share it with someone. I knew that Alexander could handle it. I knew that I could handle it.

“Was she always this stubborn?” I asked, making them look at me.

Mason scoffed. Alexander nodded.

“Good luck, man,” Mason said, smirking at me.

I chuckled and shook my head.

“I understand that she doesn’t want to put us in danger,” I sighed and looked down at the bottle in my hand. “I just wish that she would let us help her.”

I heard Alexander sigh.

“She will let us help,” Alexander said, making me look back up at him. “But she will find a way to do it without putting us in danger.”
