Sophia’s Revenge – Chapter 16
Kane’s POV
After I walked Sophia to her room I had to go for a run. I had to let my wolf River out. He was just as confused as I was with everything. He was a quiet and shy wolf. He was the polar opposite of me. Where I want to talk and make people laugh, he would just prefer them to go away. Except Sophia, he wants to be around her all the time. Her big green eyes and dark chocolate hair and high cheek bones and those pouty lips, we can’t get enough. I need to get this under control because Xander is going to kill me. I have to distance myself from her, but I can’t. I literally can’t. I find myself in front of her door knocking, not even realizing I’m doing it. She brings me happiness I didn’t know existed and I want her to have the same. I would do anything to make her smile.

She was still sound asleep so I took this time to slip from her bed and room to mine to shower and get ready because Xander would be getting out today.
