Chapter Two Hundred Thirty Three

A few nights ago…

Katie stood on the balcony after two days of watching over her healing mate. Cole had been ill for those two days and Katie had been taking care of him, however, according to what the royal had said to her, he was supposed to be getting better that very night. She didn't know when that was going to be, but the tension of having to wait for his fever to break had kept her awake. As a result, she'd stepped out of bed to bask in the cold wind.

Her mind kept her constantly aware of the hunter watching her every move. Looking in the distance, she could see a hint of a metallic bow in the cover of the trees. For someone who was supposed to be hiding, he wasn't doing a good job. After calming down, she tried to think through the message he'd sent her. Going through all that trouble to rile her up seemed pointless to her. If he was really jealous of the wolf, he would have found some way to put him down and not Katie herself.
