"You don't know." The sound of his deep voice both made my heart race and stop at once. "I didn't think it was possible, but you actually don't know anything." 824Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU9F8OhLcZI
He took a step closer and let his hand hover over my cheek. Every nerve in my body sprung to life and tingled from his proximity. And all I could think about was... What thoughts? At that moment, everything was him. 824Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOtY53fX8fW
"But you know what, Lyn? That's what makes you so different." With these words, his fingers finally brushed the side of my face, breaking some kind of spell within me. My whole body went overdrive and my senses began to overwhelm me.824Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡstWeIxN4xs
"D-different?"824Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbZoXjdvJRK
A ghost of a smile appeared on his face at the stutter in my tone.824Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBC7FvEwuUk
"Exactly," he whispered. "Different. Unique; Special; Beautiful. And you don't even know why."824Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbjTWIVl0L2
I couldn't look away. His silver eyes had me captive and I couldn't move until he released me.824Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGfM9lDlGZX
"Why?" I murmured, barely daring to breath.824Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbheIjqucI6
The smile on his face faded, as his fingertips traced my jaw. His eyes glossed over and I immediately sensed his grief.824Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvwzQdWK9id
"Because, Lyn," he began. "We were born for each other."824Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPHP5OJ7myH
"For each other?" I repeated. "You and I?"824Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzUnfyw3pHq
"Gray Wolves can sense their mates, Lyn... Usually from birth. We grew up knowing that we were for each other."824Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡErNuGfrgOF
"Mates?"824Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnLJPCA4aKK
"Mates... Like Soulmates."824Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl0MpI6yTe2
"Then why can't I-" I began.824Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx6VXRjmkSb
"You could," he interrupted. "You used to be able to. But its like I told you... Your werewolf side has been suppressed for years. It's going to take more than being in the presence of other Gray Wolves to trigger it's return."824Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡknPF0Egq8X
"So until the block is gone, I'm not a..."824Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnDPiL8fJSH
"Not exactly," he responded. I gave him a wild look. "Your migraines will only get worse as you're memories return completely."824Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡovUp7t85jV
"For the love of Luna... You have got to be kidding me!" I groaned.824Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUv8ybITqrH
824Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUUemfIrbla
He lifted up his hand and let his fingers run through the strands of ash-brown hair.824Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq1IyQLd3Fv
"There may be a way..." His voice was so quiet; I barely heard him.824Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGuQhfrBKYi
"What is it?" I asked.824Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7SQ9XZk0d0
"I have a strong connection to your past," he murmured. "If we... No, but its wrong."824Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpWmtO2YPsB
"What is it?" I repeated urgently.824Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtHoYSw2TAc
"Since I have a strong connection to your memories, strengthening your bond with me will let me act as a bridge between you and your past," he explained. "It will release your werewolf side but..."824Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ryLCOBemY
"But what?"824Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXJTgoxai98
He stared at me for a long moment, his eyes holding the intensity of a raging storm. Almost at once, his eyes welled up and a tear slid down his cheek.824Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6xgFuGyOsm
"I can't d-do this a-anymore," he choked. "I c-can't, Lyn. I can't d-deal with you n-not b-being able to remember..." He took a deep breath and cupped my face in his palms. 824Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5rj5UZmhoF
"I love you."824Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWjFLDldUVt
I froze, unable to breath. Love. The word sounded unreal, coming from his lips. I was sure he was lying. I wasn't capable of being loved.824Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ7adnr6a3S
"You don't even know me," I muttered, confused.824Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4778pmMxmz
"That's the thing, though," he objected, another tear falling from his eyes. "I do. I know you b-better than anyone else in the w-world and the same g-goes for you. You know m-me... You just c-can't remember it." He bit his lip and ran his thumb along my cheekbone. "And y-you know what? I don't care, anymore. I don't care if its wrong. I only care that strengthening the bond will bring my Lyn back to me."824Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ41xpShhuZO
"How do you strengthen the bond?" I heard myself asking, though I could hardly recognise my own voice.824Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRBGuRHnKlk
"Like this."824Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcoB3J4qNBL
With that, his lips collided onto mine, sending my senses into overdrive. His scent tingled at my nose; his voice echoing in my ears; his touch caressing my cheek. The taste of his slightly salty tears overwhelmed my mouth and every nerve in my body fused with his, igniting me with passion. There was nothing gentle about the way he kissed me but somehow that was what made me feel alive. 824Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsxeJq8zjIK
"Come back to me," he whispered.824Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzVMwGiNWsh
Long buried emotions made surface, flowing from me. Love, pain, grief, anger, happiness- everything at once.824Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB1KgacS3oH
And then, fragments of my memories came within it.
