••• Charlotte’s POV •••
It’s been a week since I brought Hayden back. I purposely didn't check on him too often because I knew his wounds were recovering nicely. From the way the wounds are healing, it wouldn't take long for him to recover fully.
Maybe he wanted to check the Moon Crest Pack, as he had said.
And true to his words and my guess, I saw him walking around the pack grounds. I knew he would notice all the improvements I had made for the Moon Crest Pack.
As I was surrounded by my pack members and discussing about some of the new facilities that I had just proposed and they were going to build, I saw Hayden standing at a distance and kept his deep gaze on me, but he didn't come and disturb me. He just stared at me from a distance.
Looking at him staring at me intently gave me a complex feeling. He had never looked at me with such intensity when we were mated, yet his focus was solely on me this time.
