My Secret, My Bully, My Mates

"Tomorrow." I sniffle and I can feel my wolf purr at having this connection back.

"So what happened there? Right at the end, something happened." Lil finally speaks as the house comes into view.

"I'm getting my guys back." I take a deep breath in and let it out slowly. "Something about the bracelet and the tattoo that showed up allowed Oliver to talk to me. I don't know if that is a 'me and him' thing or if it is part of the magic in the protection spell, but I can hear him again."

I just feel like I need to have all of my weapons on me at all times. I have also started carrying herbs and things for healing minor injuries considering how many times I have been stabbed and poisoned in the
