Izzy POV

It was a long and emotionally exhausting day for her. Izzy still couldn’t believe that her father had actually sent Phillip to come and get her. He knew she wasn’t going to ever get back with that man, and had likely been trying to force her hand, in bringing Eddie to him, for a formal sit down. It was what he
said he’d wanted.

The man was insufferable at times. Had to have everything his way. Well, he was about to meet his match, it seemed, in Eddie. Finding out that not only were Piper and Brandon not human, and neither was Eddie, that they were werewolves, she had a feeling her father was about to find out the hard way. It was going to be Eddie’s way or nothing at all.

This revelation about all of them, and she now understood that Bradley Drake and all his men were not human too, made her wonder about a lot of things around her that she had absolutely no idea about, simply because she was human.

Izzy was currently lying in a hot bath which Piper had run for her, once her knee had felt better, though Izzy did note she was still wearing the brace. While it was running, Piper had sat on the edge of the tub and looked at her curiously, asked her how she was feeling about everything she’d learned today.

“Alright, though can I ask you something about your…”

“Yes, but Eddie will tell you anything you want to know.”

“I kind of want to ask you this, not him. I don’t know if I’d get an honest answer from him, thinking maybe he’d just tell me, what I want to hear.”

“I doubt that…” Piper had replied simply, “but ask.”

So Izzy had “You said, his eyes would never wander, that he would be faithful.”

“He will be. Wolves Mate for life Izzy. Wolves are very different to humans, he will never stray.” she’d smiled at Izzy. “He’ll never even think about another and he will crave you, all of the time. Itch to touch you. It’ll be a lot to handle at first. But you’ll get used to it.”

“That’s why there’s no divorce rate?” Izzy asked. “Will Eddie and I get married? Or is it different...with Mates?”

“It’s different for us. But some do marry and you’re human, so you’ll likely get a nice fancy wedding and yes, your family will be allowed to attend, likely even have it at your family estate if you want that.”

Izzy wrinkled her nose and shook her head, she didn’t really see herself getting married at the family estate. “If I want to?” she did ask.

“Mm. Eddie will give you whatever you want.” Piper nodded as she got up.

“You should ask Eddie any other questions. He won’t lie to you, Izzy, and there are still many things you’ll need to learn and understand.”

“Alright.” Izzy had nodded.

Piper had left her alone after that, and she’d gotten into the bath to relax, had stared up at the ceiling to think about her day. To think about everything since that man had walked into the store in Portland and tried to charm her, wondered about that too. She had been irritated with him quite a bit and the
more he’d tried to charm her, the more she had gotten angry with him.

How could she go from being so annoyed with him, to just climbing into his bed the next time she’d seen him. She didn’t really understand that, but hazarded a guess that it could only be to do with the Mate thing. Piper had told her she was his Mate and was bonded to him, whatever that meant.

That man had tracked her half way around the world, his wolf had punished her for it, in a good way, for leaving them. Smiled to herself as she recalled thinking she’d run away again just so he would punish her again. That man seemed to know just what she liked too. Bit her lip and wondered what he
really liked.
