When she finally saw him come into view she was momentarily confused when he sia break than a fierce wolf Once she collected herself she took two large steps and pushed hard with her legs, launching herself into the air Just before she would have landed on his back, Fane, in a very experienced round and rolled her Jacque landed with an "oo herself

"How did you knohere I was coain calm Fane

"I could hear your heartbeat, and smell you"

"Damn, I was upwind Aotyou and Jen did was brilliant"

Jacque preened under his praise and walked over to hiainst his side He licked her lad that I can share this with you," Fane told her as they lay down next to each other, their bodies pressed close

"Me too" Jacque’s voice was a contented sigh

"Can I ask you so," Jacque answered

"Do you miss your home? Are you happy here with me, with my family?"

Jacque heard the worry in Fane’s voice He could be in her mind anytime he wanted and seek the reassurance he needed But instead he asked her

"I et to talk to her anytime I want" She turned her face to his "Do I really miss my life back in the States? No My home is wherever you are"

"Do you ever wonder what your life would be like had you never ht be with?"

"If you ether, then the answer is no" Jacque felt Fane tense

"What’s up, wolf-man? Are you still jealous of hiht away she sat up to look at hiround at his lol

"My father found out so about Trent About why he ended your relationship so abruptly"

"Oh?" Jacque sounded surprised She was a little put out that he hadn’t told her a long ti you Trent actually stood up to him, but then Lucas threatened his family"

"How did you find this out?"

"Simple," Fane told her "We asked him"

"Did he not find that a little odd?"

"I explained to hione on a couple of dates I told him that you were honest with me about your relationship and the sudden break up He looked genuinely sorry," Fane added begrudgingly "So when I told hi around your place and wanted to know if he knew anything, he told me about Lucas"

Jacque looked off into the forest, lost in thought at the information Fane had just told her It eird to realize that Trent hadn’t really wanted to break up with her What would have happened? Would they have continued to date through their senior year? She heard a lol fro that’s what I wish had happened It’s just weird to think that what I thought wasn’t reality at all Why didn’t you tell ing him to tell her
