Chapter 36 Second Chance Mate

• RAELYNN
• Air rushed into my aching lungs when I stumbled out of the closet I'd been locked in. Disoriented, I kept my eyes closed while I tried to catch my breath. Rai's soothing scent surrounded me, making me relax. Slowly, I opened my eyes and pulled away to look at him. My throat constricted at the sight of the tender gaze in his amber eyes and my heart started to race. Everything else seemed to have faded and it was just the two of us trapped in our world.
• "Rai..." I breathed, tears filling my eyes when I noticed the way he held me in his arms. It was surprisingly gentle and warm.
