章 245: The Secret Name

The sharp intake of breath from Tuzi was not missed by Taiga. She'd practically fallen out of his lap and onto the floor. He couldn't reach his hands out fast enough to catch her. He certainly didn't mean to shock her in such a manner.

Finally steadying herself once more, the rabbit shifter gazed upon her mate with wide hazel eyes of disbelief. 

How did he know…?!

When had he found out…?! He said he'd known this for a while now…?!

Who else knew…?!

Seeing the look of horror that descended upon the rabbit shifter's face, Taiga tried to take her into his arms, hoping that he may sooth her nerves– For he truly meant her no harm by asking the question. 

Yet Tuzi held out her palms, keeping him at arms' length. 

Taiga was torn! This was not how he wanted the conversation to go!
