“You prefer to wear your hair in ponytails and buns. You’re not big on makeup, only applying it when necessary or when you’re in a good mood. You hate sleeping on your back because it reminds you of dead people in coffins. You hate mess, and you also hate the color yellow.”
I held up my hand to stop him because I was completely speechless. Every single thing he said was fucking true. I couldn’t understand how he knew all of this since we were never close. The Sterlings wouldn’t have told him because they barely knew me themselves.
“How?” I stammered, unable to comprehend it all.
“I told you,” he said with a smile, “even when you thought I wasn’t, I was always paying attention.”
Despite the warm air, I couldn’t help but shiver. He took out his jacket and draped it over my shoulders.
“I also know you love nature. According to you, it rejuvenates you. That’s why I brought you here,” he said softly, and I couldn’t help but smile.
“Well, I guess I got dressed up for nothing. If I’d known you were bringing me here, I would have worn something more casual.”
“No, it’s fine. I’m glad you dressed up; it’s a feast for my eyes,” he winked at me, making my heart race.
We sat in silence, basking in each other’s presence until his voice broke through.
“Is there anything you want to know about me? Or do you already know everything?” he pulled me closer, securing me in his arms.
I rested my head against his chest, feeling his heartbeat. “There’s one thing I’ve been
curious about.”
He gave me a mock shocked look. “So there is something you don’t know, how shocking.”
“Stop it.” I pinched his hard abs, but it had no effect. He just chuckled.

Chapter 266
“Go ahead.”
“Your wolf… how does he feel now?” I carefully asked the question that had been
bothering me.
I felt Sebastian’s body stiffen suddenly. He fell silent, brow furrowed, a complex expression I couldn’t quite read flashing in his eyes. His hesitation made my heart sink.
“It’s okay, you don’t have to answer that,” I hurriedly said, trying to mask my
disappointment. “I understand, I know your wolf has never liked me. We can talk about something else…”
“No, wait,” Sebastian grabbed my hand, stopping me from changing the subject. He took a deep breath, “Thea, I need to tell you something, something I’ve never had the courage to
admit.”
His serious expression made my heart race, both anticipating and fearing what would
come next.
“My wolf never hated you,” he said slowly, his voice deep and husky. “Quite the opposite,
he’s always been drawn to you. From very early on, he wanted to be near you, to protect
you.”
