Chapter 14: A Run in the Park Pt. 1

Aláine's Point of View

The following morning arrived too soon. Rubbing the sleep out of my eyes, I left to take Axel for a run. I had already fed Axel, but I would have my breakfast afterwards. Who wanted to run on a full stomach?

I was tired for two reasons. The main one was because I sat up late talking with Zara about everything I had discovered about werewolves. Zara was also pleased that werewolves weren't the horrible scary monsters of the movies, although she was not sure of the Lycan aspect. She still wanted to continue seeing Noah, werewolf or not.

"I wonder if Noah will find his mate like Kristof?" she said sadly, "then I guess we won't be hooking up."

I shrugged and gave her a big hug. Since Zara hadn't seen anyone else since she had first had sex with him, I suspected that she had feelings for Noah and that their relationship was more than a hookup. Not that Zara would admit it to herself or to anyone else. That was so essentially Zara.
