being married. She wiped the tears from her face. And I really think
that Michael won t be as much of a problem if we are married. She
looked a little embarrassed. Truthfully, I ve been worried about what
he would say when he found out we re living together.
Remus pulled her close and kissed her lightly. You should have
told me you were worried about his reaction. I can t help fix what s
bothering you if you don t confide in me.
I m sorry, Remus, I was scared to tell you. I didn t want my fears
to drive you away. I love you more than I ve ever loved anyone or
anything in my life. I d be proud to be your wife. I love my brother,
and I want him to be able to make a life for himself. I don t wanna
have to worry about him sending me back to the clinic. I ll never go
back to Dr. Constantine. I d rather die first.
Don t say that, baby, even jokingly. You don t have to worry
about the doctor ever again. I m gonna sit down with the Elders soon
and come up with a plan to run the good doctor off so he ll never
bother you or any of my wolves ever again. You never have to be

worried about anything scaring me off. You re stuck with me for life
now.
I trust you, Remus, and I ll do whatever you want to make our
lives easier.
As Remus cuddled her close, he smiled when he heard her
thoughts in his head. His mate had forgotten about the psychic bond
that would form with mating.
My life s changed so much since I came here. Remus makes me so
happy, happier than I ever thought I could be. I don t know if I ll ever
be able to make him see how much I love him.
Oh, God, how am I gonna tell Michael? He s going to think I ve
been irresponsible about all this, hell, maybe even try to talk me into
ending it
Maddie jumped clear out of Remus s arms when she heard his
voice inside her head.
Michael will come around, love. He ll just need a little time to
adjust and then he ll see for himself that you re happy.
Looking shocked, Maddie turned to Remus, her expression asking
for an explanation.
It s our mating bond, Maddie. It keeps us connected on many
levels. We ll always be able to sense each other and in time, read all
of each other s thoughts. If you concentrate, you ll be able to hear my
thoughts and sense my feelings as well.
At her look of speculation, Remus continued. It s a good thing,
Maddie. It can help me keep you safe, and help me find you if we re
apart for any reason. There shouldn t be secrets between mates, and
this is a way to keep us from ever keeping secrets from each other.
Maddie sighed and looked away. I still don t like it, Remus. I
don t like the idea of anyone being able to read my mind. She gazed
up at him through her long lashes and grinned. But for you, I ll find
a way to adjust to it.

Discovering Her Wolfen Heritage 151
Laughing, Remus snuggled her back down against his body.
Maddie, we still haven t mentioned something else. Remus gave
her a wicked smile
What s that?
What happened to the lamp, Maddie?
Obviously embarrassed, Maddie flushed a bright red and looked
over to the corner where the broken lamp lay in pieces. Again, he
heard her thoughts.
I can t believe I lost control again today. I d begun to believe he
hadn t noticed since we were so caught up at the time. Now, what am
I supposed to say?
I m so sorry, Remus. I lost control for just a moment and then it
was too late to get it back. I don t know what else to say. I ll try and
not let it happen again, but I can t make any promises.
Remus tightened his arms around her and snuggled her even
closer to his body.
Come on now, it s okay. I m thrilled that I drove you to such
passion that you lost control like that. I don t care about the lamp, and
I hope that I continue to make you feel such pleasure that you don t
have control of what s going on around you. Your response to me
makes me feel like a king, baby. Don t you know that?
Maddie looked at him shyly and shook her head. Tilting her head
back with his finger, Remus placed a tender kiss on her lips, trying to
show her without words how much she meant to him. Let s get some
sleep, sweet lady. We have plans to make tomorrow regarding a
quickie wedding.
Remus felt Maddie snuggle up to his chest and heard her sigh
softly. He hoped that she was finally beginning to feel safe. As he
listened to her breathing slow as she fell asleep, he whispered into her
mind.
I love you, forever.

Michael barely noticed the scenery as he drove toward Wind
River on his way to see Maddie in her mountain retreat. He couldn t
believe how furious he was feeling, and he didn t know how to get
past the fear in his heart. For the past three days, he tried calling
Maddie and got no answer. In desperation, he tried calling Remus
Wind River to ask him to check on her only to be told that he was
away for a few days.
What good is asking a neighbor to check on her if he s never
going to be around to do it?
Michael s anger actually had him talking out loud to himself in his
car. Dr. Constantine called him last night to say that he tried to visit
Maddie over the weekend and hadn t been able to find her. He said he
waited quite a while before giving up and that the cabin had been in a
