Chapitre 19: Chapter 19: Mated to Hale

Stepping into my home, I dropped my bags down upon the ground, and looked around. I was causing more chaos for myself than was needed. Perhaps what I needed to do was to stop trying to argue with Damian at every turn, and just ignore him when he is around.

“Ivy?” Hale's voice caused me to smile as I watched his body exit from my bedroom where he had been.

“What are you doing in my room?” I asked, pushing back the feelings Damian had just caused and forcing happiness to come forth.

“I heard what happened–” His eyes looked to me with concern, and I couldn’t help but let my smile falter.

“How? That’s so far away, there is no way you heard.”

A chuckle left him as he stepped forward, wrapping his arms around me and pulling me in for a hug. “We have really good hearing, Ivy. The window is open.”
