‘Gwen… Titus’ voice in my head reminded me that we were no longer in Trazmoz and that we could use the mind-link again.
“There’s nothing here’ I replied to my mate who sounded. worried.
‘Get some rest, the sun has set again. You didn’t rest last night and went straight to the old palace’ It was an order and from the tone of his voice he didn’t want any arguments at all.
Letting out a long breath, I looked at the two warriors beside me, it seemed that they too had received orders to return with me.
Stepping out of the main door of the old palace, I wasn’t surprised to see my mate and the other warriors already waiting for us in front of the palace.
Smiling, I walked towards my mate who was waiting for me with open arms.
Disappointment washed over me at what we didn’t find here. Yes, I knew that it couldn’t be that easy but it wasn’t wrong to hope.
Titus wrapped his arm around my shoulders as we started walking together and kissed my forehead “It’s okay, there’s still time” he whispered trying to calm me down, he knew the disappointment I was feeling right now.
Walking into the palace, Titus stopped and looked into my eyes “Do you want to eat right away or take a shower first?” He asked gently.
“Do I smell?” I pouted.
He laughed as he shook his head “Of course not, what do I care about that, but I know women usually like to take a bath after a long trip” He added and I raised an eyebrow at him.
“Wow… I didn’t know you knew so much about women” I retorted quickly which made him shut up immediately but I hurriedly blinked my eyes before running away the moment he realized I was mocking him.
“You better watch out, woman!!!”
I screamed as I ran away from my mate who started chasing me when he realized he was being pranked by me.
Everyone around us smiled and laughed at their king acting childish like that for the first time.
Yes, it was only with me that he could become someone different.
I know our path is still rough and difficult, but at least I can make the most of the days I get to spend with him.

Third Party POV:
“We must hurry before Alpha Raul smells our presence” One of my men in Spain said as I got off the plane.
I nodded in understanding and followed him back before transforming myself into my wolf form.
Howl…
The howl of the wolves signaling they smelled the rogues made us hurriedly run away before the territorial guards came and stopped us.
Knowing that Titus went to Trazmoz, I had to see with my own eyes whether it was really him who was there or just a decoy.
With Morena gone, it was like I had no eyes and lost track of what was happening.
