CHAPTER 22 Don’t leave me

　　Rae’s POV

　　I asked him if I could leave, since I am no slave, but Erik didn’t answer, not right away, at least. Of course, I didn’t intend on leaving at that moment, not when I wanted to be around him, but it would be good to know I was free and my staying in that pack depended entirely on my own will to do so.

　　I look at his eyes, trying to understand his feelings and why he is not answering me.

　　“Yes.” He finally answered. “You can go if you want to.” I didn’t know if he really meant it, because his eyes were darker and he seemed conflicted, to me. But I couldn’t know for sure and I dared not to ask.

　　I simply nodded and looked at the door. I had to stop looking at that male. HIs scent was enough to make me go crazy, so avoiding his eyes was the best option to gather the courage to leave the room.
