The moment Everard’s eyes caught sight of the woman he was so persistently searching for these past few months, his elation knew no bounds.
He wasn’t aware if he was running on the land or if he was soaring freely in the sky. He didn’t know when he spread his arms. All he knew was that his body, his heart, and his whole being were getting drawn towards this woman as if they were the opposite poles of the magnets.
Unlike previous times, he was letting himself get pulled by this invisible force because by now, he had already realized that the feelings that he had for Ruby were not just because of the sire bond. It was something more than that.
He did not just want to think of her as a random pack member. Neither did he simply want to protect her out of obligation as an alpha. To him, she was already someone irreplaceable. He wanted to claim her whole, her body and soul. He wanted to keep her safe because he could not imagine living in a world without her.
