Talia could feel Damon's impatience rising. He was sweet and caring with Talia, but that was only for her.
'Can I?' Talia asked Damon through their mind link.
'As long as you don't give him a free ticket into the Dark Howlers pack,' Damon responded.
'I know,' Talia assured him.
"Damon didn't say that your mate can't join the Dark Howlers pack," Talia said.
Zina looked at Talia apprehensively. That's how it sounded to her. "What did the Alpha say?"
"Owen needs to find a way to cut his ties to this pack amicably."
"How?" Zina asked.
"Have faith in your mate," Talia said. "He is a Lieutenant for a reason. As someone who lives in this pack, I'm confident that Owen can do his research and pick the least painful option."
Owen looked at Talia with eyes open wide. She had no idea about him, yet she spoke like he could solve their predicament. Somehow, it made him feel important.
"You won't help us?" Zina persisted.
