CHAPTER 275 – And back Again
TAWNY
“Shit, shit” I mumble as I stumble to the bedside table. Pulling my shorts up and almost tripping over my own feet in the process.
I rip the drawer open and grab the bottle of pills, opening it with shaky hands and dumping two of the pills into my clammy palm.
“What the fuck are those?” Mason’s agitated and harsh voice cuts through the air as I pop the pills into my mouth.
He reaches me and snatches the bottle from my hand inspecting it. His eyes widen and his mouth forms an ‘O’ as realization dawns on him.
“Fuck Tawny,” he sighs “He’s your mate, isn’t he?” I nod swallowing the pills. “Why didn’t you tell me?” His voice has lost all the anger and now holds sympathy.
“How long have you been taking these?” He refers to the heat-reducing pills.
Pills that are meant to hide the scent of a werecats heat and reduce the symptoms, keeping the heat at bay. Pills that don’t seem to work when around Crimson, evidently, if tonight is anything to go by.
