SLOWLY... SLOWLY...

Kace sensed a scent, an intoxicating scent that drove his beast crazy. He did not even realize when he started to growl which scared Arabella, who was sitting in front of him.

"Kace, are you okay?" Ariana touched Kace's upper arm as she looked at him worriedly. "What happened?"

Ariana could see Kace's ocean blue eyes had turned dark, indicating that his beast was trying to surface and take over.

"I am sorry." Kace shook his head, trying to push back his agitated beast, though his eyes still stayed the color of the night. "I feel weird."

Ariana squinted her eyes, but before she could ask any further, she saw Kace stand up abruptly before walking out of the room in the next moment.

Hugging the little Arabella in her arms, she followed Kace and his mate, who had followed the agitated lycan, out of the dining room as well.
