Shifted Fate (Amy) novel Chapter 492

I waved her off. “I was fine, hurt, but fine.” I smiled as she growled at me. “I woke up with a burst of energy. So I went for a run.” I sighed as I pushed my chair back. I needed to move. “Everything was fine, but then I sniffed a tracker from Vince’s pack.”

Rick stiffened. “How close?”

“Not close enough. The shield hides your scent here, so don’t leave the area and you guys will be fine.”

My mom nodded. “We train directly nest to the house. We don’t go farther than that.”

“I ran away from here, anyway.” I smiled. “I scented more than I went. By the time I collected them all, I had five trackers on me, and we were running in giant circles.” My mom snorted. “Nix shut off our scent and shifted to Megan. She hid, confusing the trackers and just enjoying herself.” I smiled, but then I thought of Thane, and my smile dropped.

“What?” My mom grabbed my hand.

“One tracker was Thane.” I met my mom’s eyes and I watched her face fall.

“Yeah. The trackers searched for a while, but then Thane dropped to the ground. He spoke, saying he didn’t want to find me.”

My mom raised her shoulder. “Of course. He’s in love with you.”

I froze. “What?”

My mom just furrowed her brow. “You had to know, baby. That’s why he asked to train with you.” I felt my heart sink.

“I was just good at tracking.” I just shook my head.

My mom smiled. “Baby, he was hoping you would fall for him. But he would not approach you until you came of age. He was really hoping to be your mate.” She patted my hand. “He’s play that he wasn’t though. We talked before I left.” She sat back. “He told me he was asking to transfer out.”

“He’s gone.”
