Once Tobias left, Alessio led Reynah into the pack house. Only then did Reynah take in the grand interior of the pack house, it was more like a castle than a house really. 

The white walls of the castle stretched far beyond the thick trees that encompassed the castle, Reynah couldn't imagine how long it took to build the place let alone manage it.

By now it was past midnight, the moon at its highest peak and the black curtain of darkness wouldn't allow her to see beyond her outstretched hand, even with her heightened vision. Reynah followed closely behind Alessio, it was easy to get lost in this place and she knew better than anyone her shit sense of direction.

Too busy engulfed in her thoughts Reynah didn't noticed Alessio stop, abruptly bumping into his back.

"Sorry" Reynah said as she rubbed her nose that had just collided with Alessio's muscular back.

"This is my study, if you need me you can come in anytime" He was standing next to a large wooden door that gave off an aura of anything but welcoming but nonetheless Reynah nodded in understanding.

Alessio continued to walk but this time he took Reynah's smaller hand in his larger one, ignoring the sparks she felt at the sudden contact Reynah looked questionably at Alessio.

"You'll keep crashing into me if you walk behind me" Was his reasoning even though he knew it was just an excuse but luckily Reynah didn't question it.

They kept walking for a couple minutes and Reynah hated the silence between them, she itched to say something to escape the tension.

"How big is this pack house?" Reynah suddenly blurted out. Reynah knew his pack was the largest in the country but she never took the time to actually look into it, now was a better time than any to get to know where she would be staying for the next month.

"This isn't the pack house, it's my house" Alessio stated, Our house now

Reynah was amazed, if this was only his house than she couldn't imagine the size of the actual pack house.

"How many wolves are in this pack?"

"627" The number shocked Reynah even more, she thought her pack was large but he had nearly 400 more werewolves in his.

She decided to ask one more question.

"You're going to keep your promise and let me leave in a month, right?"

That question got a reaction from Alessio, he chuckled, the deep and husky sound almost caused Reynah to swoon but she didn't falter in her stance, wondering what was so funny in what she had said.
