บท 476: Guiding Question

"Why do you suppose alyko don't experience mate bonds?" Neoma asked Maggie while they were sitting upstairs in the pack house under the skylight of the new renovation.

Sage was lying on his stomach on the floor reading a book when his feet stopped swinging in the air at the question. But he didn't look up at the females who were talking.

"What makes you think that they don't?" Maggie asked.

Neoma frowned. "That's what everyone says. It's a fact, isn't it?"

"Well I don't know if we can call it a fact," she replied. "Our Luna is alyko."

Neoma smiled. "She is special."

"She is, that's definitely true. You know what I wonder?" Maggie asked, glancing down at Sage on the floor. "I wonder if August didn't set off a kind of chain reaction with her presence."

"What do you mean?" Neoma asked.

Sage turned over on his side and leaned on his arm to look at Maggie. He was interested in what Maggie meant as well. She was on to something.
