My Human (Kane and Tessa) novel Chapter 53

“I’m trying… She comments, r eyes glinting with an unfamiliar emotion.

“I know you are…. I’m glad.” I admit, thankful that she was beginning to warm up to me more and more with each passing day- understanding how to deal with me as an Alpha.

“So what happened? Where… did she go?” Tessa sits back, legs crossed and prepared to hear to full update as I twist slightly to face

her.

I clear my throat, enjoying this brief moment in which I could contribute to her mood – with the slight ounce of guilt still remaining from before when I had shut her down time and time again about her friend.

“You can thank Seth… he went rogue and took it upon himself to go back for her!” I chuckle, as she shakes her head and smiles in disbelief.

“He’s a good guy!” She states, as I fight back my inner wolf to not become jealous with the meaningless comment.

She doesn’t mean it that way… he’s a good friend of mine and a good friend of hers now… behave!

“He is… he took her to his Dads place not far from here and put her in the basement… not even my best trackers could catch her scent!

“Another question…” She continues, as her face falls into a confused expression – shuffling slightly to get more comfortable.

“What is it?” I push her to say it, again feeling guilty over the fact that she might potentially hold back on telling me things now after I continued to cut her off before…

But I suppose there’s always the last resort to get information out of her now…

“I–If Erin has already been selected for the trial period… is it too late for Seth to be with her instead?” Tessa’s eyes glint with curiosity, as they grow big and hopeful for my next response.

In the books, it’s not the simple… but if there’s one thing I know about Seth, it’s that he will for sure make it work his way or the highway!

“If it’s meant to be, then it will be Maybe Erin will need some time first to get over what’s happened before rushing into things.” I bargain, as Tessa seems satisfied with my response.

With that, I look her over once more seeing her tired eyes behind her excited facade. She needs to sleep…
