Chapter 22 I apologize Ayla .
She should not have found out where you were staying and I will send a mind link out to everyone to stay away from these rooms unless I specifically send them here and you are aware of it beforehand .
I sigh , running my hands through my hair while taking a seat at the island again .
I feel like I should explain Dellas behavior to Ayla , but I also dont want to Give her another sing to be bothered with .
It looks like I need to have another tough discussion with Della .
Della is a friend of mine that gets a little too territorial and needs to be reminded of her place sometimes .
She means well .
Ayla nods her head in agreement and begins to eat her supper again .
Dont pay any attention to her comments about needing make up .
I mean it when I say that you are stunning and there is nothing for you to hide .
I tell her gently rubbing my thumb over the knuckles of her hand resting on her thigh .
I am not sure why , but the action seems instinctual .

She picks up the pad of paper and begins writing , then passes it over to me .
She was right about one thing ? I read out loud .
What was she right about little wolf .
She takes the pad of paper from me scribbles on it quickly and slides it back over .
This pack is full of beautiful shifters .
Eric and Cyrus could melt ice with their smiles .
I read .
Oh , is that right little wolf ? My beta and my healer are the beautiful pack hotties ? Well , Cyrus would agree with you and probably try to make a competition out of being the hottest of hot somehow or threaten everyone in the running with their early demise unless he won the title .
Youre forgetting that I have dimples and wasnt included in this line up .
Is it my beard ? I havent shaved in a week .
Maybe you cant see my dimples well enough .
I will shave and tomorrow you can let me know if I can make the list ? She quickly blushes and looks down .

Dont hide from me , little wolf .
Ayla quickly looks up at me causing a good girl to roll off of my tongue .
Im not sure where that phrase keeps coming from , but I like it and I think she does too .
We eat in silence for a while .
When we are finished , I get up and start clearing the island causing her to get up as well .
Its alright .
I will take care of it ; you just sit back down .
She doesnt .
Instead , she walks over and hands me her pad of paper .
Thank you for standing up for me and keeping me safe today .
I read it and Im happy and also sad that this little omega needs to thank me in the first place .
Before I can say anything , she slowly walks over to me with her arms out and I realize she is working her way over to hug me .

I can tell she is scared and apprehensive .
I stand still , slowly starting to raise my arms out at my side and hold them out , giving her the opportunity to carefully wrap her arms around me .
Im sure it has been 10 years since shes hugged anybody and I cant put into words how I feel about that hug going to me .
I carefully wrap my arms around her , firmly holding her against the middle of my chest .
I lean down and bury my nose into her thick , beautiful white hair and catch myself taking a deep inhale , relishing in her lavender scent .
Ronan is alert and calm .
In fact , he is so calm , he has started to purr , surprising myself .
Ive never heard him do that before .
It must be his instincts to protect and comfort an omega .
I very softly and very carefully place a kiss on the top of her head .
Telling myself its just a comforting action .
