Alex's POV

I woke up feeling disoriented and out of place. And maybe it was because I was really out of place. This place, wherever his place was, wasnt my place. My place was wherever Nicolai was. I know this doesnt sound anything like me but I guess the mate pull was affecting me. I wanted to be near Nicolai.

Scratch that, I needed to be near Nicolai.

Even if he infuriated and annoyed me, and made me feel like I was useless at times, I still felt something in his presence. I couldnt really tell if it was the mate pull or it was truly my feelings for him...
