Capítulo 101: Not Running

“Alpha Caleb!” Corrine shouted angrily, “Let go of my daughter this moment!”

Ashleigh pulled back, but Caleb did not let her go.

“It’s not what you think!” Ashleigh shouted, trying again to pull away from Caleb.

She shifted her attention to his face when he would not let go. Caleb’s eyes stared back at her, and she felt as though she could read his thoughts.

‘I won’t let you run anymore.’

Ashleigh felt a twinge in her heart as she held back the laugh that threatened to come out.

“I’m not running away,” she whispered to him, a gentle smile on her lips, “I need to explain.”

Caleb let out a disappointed sigh as he relaxed his arms, allowing her to move away from him. Though he did reach down and take her hand. Unwilling to accept a complete separation from her.

Ashleigh looked down at their intertwined fingers. She, too, felt more relaxed while they had a physical connection.

“Ashleigh!” Corrine shouted, immediately grabbing Ashleigh’s attention.
