Peace. It's a feeling I've forgotten. But now that | am feeling it again, | don’t ever want to lose it.

As I've spoken to Alessia, the masculine voice has stopped and Alessia’s purring stops as well, leavingalone
again.
This continues off and on, until one day, | hear a feminine voice talking to the masculine voice. Alessia growls in
my head. ‘What is it girl? Is it danger?’ | ask my wolf.
It doesn’t feel like danger, it feels like....jealousy. That's odd. Why would Alessia or | feel jealous over two people
talking. The masculine voice stops and the smell of the forest arounddims. The feminine voice continues,
and | feel a strange tugging on my arms. When the tugging has stopped and the sounds of the woman are gone,
Alessia quietly says ‘Wake up.’
‘Alessia? Alessia are you back?”
‘Not yet, my sweet Angel, but I'm getting there. You need to wake up so | can get. even stronger.”
