Ours novel Chapter 20

Nala POV

How long has it been since I'm here a couple of months I think? Everything changed, I changed, I'm just like them. I'll be strong for them, I want them to keep me. To love me. I'm getting my hopes high in the sky, please god don't crush them-again.

Being a wolf everything is sharper everything is more intense. The guys want me to get used to their different scent, to be able to locate them in case of danger. So what better way to do it than play hide and seek, this is going to be fun.

I shifted to my wolf form on my own, I didn’t need help this times. This form is still a bit strange I'm not super-fast, and changing back and forth makes me hungry and sleepy, sometimes I’ll need help to go back and forth but I’m getting much better at it.

Outside they all went to hide somewhere while Zach stayed with me to offer help when needed.

"Focus on their scent, think about one of them, how he smells for you and search for it, your instinct will help you" Zach explain to me vaguely on how to find them.

I close my eyes and think about the guys they all smell like home to me, mate. the word pop in my head.

I start my search with no plan, in particular, I'm just looking for a home, the smell of safety for me.

I first find Aidan he smells warm like burned wood and fire. I guess he stayed close to make sure I'm okay, typical Aidan he’s always close and ready to help.

I yelp and jump when I find him feeling accomplished. He cooed and owed me telling me how good I am and how proud he is.

I went back to my searching quest, the twins were the trickiest to find, they smell so similar to me plus they took the game seriously and were hidden too far away from the rest.

I found the rest of the guys more easily but only guessing who it is when I'm close enough.

I was so proud of myself, I can find my mates when I want, maybe not the particular one I want but it's a start, I’ll learn the difference on another day.

Matthew came and joined us, he said we should make the game a bit more interesting. My ears perk up, I loved the sound of that.

"How about you guys try and catch us?" ~Mathew

"I don't know baby she's not that good at running," Zach says chuckling

I look at Zach and do a deep growl, I learned that one from daddy Aidan, but mine was cute compared to his.

"You want to play sugar?" Kyle asks me.

I jump and nod my head I like this game it sounds like fun.

"Okay we'll play but Zach and Mathew will stay with you all the time" Christian says in his alpha voice.

I think I can ask Christian for anything and he'll still say yes, not as the other guys would ever say no to me.

We had a head start since I wasn't that fast compared to the rest of them we ran for a little, the guys telling me where to go and lifting me whenever I fell.

I was getting tired and the guys were closing on us. Zach decided to pick me up and run full speed. I was cradled against his chest like a baby.

We reach a cave of some sort.
