My Hunted Mate

Chapter Thirty Six

Corinna

Panic floods me as I try to shift again, my bones begin to break and reshape momentarily before snapping back into place, I let out a whimper of pain, followed by a growl of frustration.

Kai's eyes are filled with worry as he watches me trying to shift for the sixth time, but again I'm unable to. " Cori? What's going on? " he asks, his brows furrowed.

" I.. I don't know. " I mumble. " I can't shift, why can't I shift? This has never happened before. "

" Maybe it's the grief? " He suggests.

I shake my head. " No, it.. It couldn't be, I've lost a lot of people, felt unimaginable grief and this has never happened to me. "

The frustration getting to me, I rake my fingers through my hair, giving it a tug. Kai moves toward me, taking a gentle hold of my wrist to pull my hand away from my head. He then cups my cheeks, my eyes snap to his.

" Hey.. It's alright, we'll figure this out. What can I do? " He questions.

" I.. " I pause for a moment, letting out a sigh. " I don't know, but I think I'm going to have to visit a friend. "

" Who? " He starts to gather the clothing I'd tossed to the ground.

" Her name is Gia, she's human but mated to an alpha from a park nearby. " I inform him, taking the clothes from his hands to cover my body.

When I am dressed, we start making our way back to the house hand in hand. Eventually Kai speaks again. " If you have to visit a pack, I'll make the arrangements. I have agreements with any neighbouring packs, covens and clans to keep the peace, but I can't enter their lands unless they give permission. "

" I can go alone. " I tell him.

" No. I'm not letting you go when you can't turn into a wolf to protect yourself. " He argues.

Stopping in my track, I remove my hand from his waving it towards one of the many trees surrounding us. The tree's bark begins to crack until it breaks in half, leaving the tree to collapse to the forest floor, shaking the earth around us as it does.

" I'm far from defenceless Kai. " I raise an eyebrow at him, biting down on my lip to stop from laughing at his shocked expression.

He sighs. " Okay, you can protect yourself. Can you drive? "

" I- No. " I stare down at the ground beneath my bare feet.

When I look back up at him his shock is replaced with amusement and his head is tilted slightly to the right. " How long is this journey? "

" It took me three days.. " I mumble.
