Bab 167: Chapter 167 We Are Mates

••• Charlotte’s POV •••

The utility room was dark, bar from the light seeping from the crack at the bottom of the door.

I could feel the warm breath of the man behind me hitting the top of my head.

I began struggling to free myself from his hold, but the man was too strong. His grip tightened the more I struggled.

Who was he?

Who was stronger than me after my power had awakened?

I tried to shift, but I felt something was wrong.

Lexi seemed to hold me back from shifting.

“Lexi!” I yelled at my wolf in my head, only to hear her purring.

Why was Lexi purring at this moment?

I froze when suddenly I noticed his scent.

This scent…

The way Lexi was purring…

My body began trembling as I stopped struggling.

Could it be…

“Lottie?” A man’s voice was heard, laced with uncertainty.

That voice...

The voice that I had longed to hear for so many months...

“Lottie?” he called my name again, still with the same uncertain tone.
