Chapter 266 
I was in deep shit. 
I was in the shower for almost forty five minutes altogether, and I wound up actually ejaculating twice. I knew that I genuinely couldn’t get any more shameful. 
The very fact that I practically kicked Dylan out .. e room while I had to barge into the bathroom also didn’t help with my guilt, Just so she wouldn’t have to know I needed to relieve myself. 
Goddess I was an idiot. 
I once again let a groan escape me, however this time, it was out of pure frustration rather than desire. Finding your mate should be easy, I honestly just wish the situation with Dylan was simpler. 
I was so proud of her for being so strong willed and for fighting for what she believed in, but sometimes I just wish she was ordinary. Most girls her age were traipsing around, studying and enjoying whatever hobbies they like, but Dylan? She was anything but most girls. 
She was rebellious at every opportunity, her views and opinions were voiced by her so meticulously, that’s it’s genuinely really difficult to argue with her. She knows exactly what she’s fighting for and that in itself is truly a sight to behold, but all that also meant she was constantly in danger. 
I sighed, thinking about my predicament, I quickly dried myself off and got dressed, before walking down to the dining room and seeing non other that the contraband runner sitting at the table. Ryan Clarkes head rested on his folded arms, and his breathing came out in even pants. He was obviously 

asleep. 
I didn’t like the man. 
I mean, no, he had done absolutely nothing to me personally, but he was close to my Dylan, and he was a natural flirt. If Dylan hadn’t have met Josh, and myself then I could see them actually becoming a thing, trading and rebelling together. 

“You, look tired.” Came my cousins voice from the opposite side of the dining hall. I rolled my eyes, I was tired. Being so turned on by someone yet not being able to show it or even ethically release the growing tension, really was exhausting. That and it took me a while to actually fall asleep, because I was so hyper aware of Dylan’s every breath. “I thought Dylan might’ve been tired too, but she’s just the picture of energy this morning. Does that girl ever stop working?” 
“I think she’s afraid to stop.” I admitted before sitting next to Gilliard and sighing, unsure as to were Dylan actually was at that specific moment. Dylan used her work as a distraction for things, I had noticed that a lot over the past few weeks. I think keeping herself busy took her mind off of everything. 
“If I walked in her shoes, I think I would be too, in honesty.” Gill shrugged, taking a sip out of his

steaming mug of coffee, I personally never cared for the stuff, however, I was rather partial to the smell 
of it. 
“Where is she anyway? Taking inventory? Checking up on the wounded from yesterday? Making a plan of action with the head warrior?” I knew she was bound to be working on something important, she didn’t tend to settle for east tasks. 
“I actually think she’s about to head out to the next district to speak to their alpha, she’s taking some pup home there.” What?! My hands smacked loudly on the table in front of me in shock. Which in turn caused Ryan to lift his head up quickly in surprise. The Fear in his eyes at the bang, quickly turned into 
confusion as he rubbed his tired eyes. Well, boo hoo for him I guese 
Honestly, how could Dylan be so reckless? How could Gill be such an idiot as to let her 
go alone?! 
“Why the fuck are you only telling me about this now?!” I stood up quickly off my stool and began to charge towards the front door, insisting on catching her up, when Gill stopped me with a firm grasp.
