how she could read minds?  It wasn't like she could explain it.
    Not everyone was trustworthy, and Violet realized she never before trusted anyone with her secrets, besides her parents and friends.  Dmitry entrusted her with his secret, and the secret of his people.  No wonder Kolya was worried.  She could bring them a lot of trouble.  Violet would bet they would kill to keep their secret.
    She shivered with understanding.  These people were dangerous, and she was bonded to their leader.  Dmitry reached into a bin, and pulled out a blanket.  Without a word he wrapped it around her and tucked it in.
    “I will be happy to warm you further if you need it, lyubov moya .” he whispered.
    Violet looked into her lover’s eyes.  They might be dangerous, but never before was she treated so gently, or with so much care.  They treated their mates like treasures.  Dmitry said they loved all the children.  Whoever they were, they were good and honorable.  Violet could have found someone much worse.  Her last boyfriend took a swing at her, when she found him in their bed with another woman.
    She went to self-defense classes after the attack, and tried to learn from her mistakes.  Following Dmitry home might be a mistake as well, but she loved him.  He treated her like a queen.  He shared his mind with her.  She knew him.  He was worth the risk.
    Dmitry wrapped the blanket around Violet, and wondered what she was thinking about.  She was very quiet.  He didn't feel any ripples of extreme emotion, but she seemed far away from him.  He knew it was being selfish, but he didn't like it.  He realized she sat quietly for hours, waiting for one good photo.  But he would feel better if she was, at least, interacting with them.
    Maybe she was tired.  They stayed up late, making love, and sharing intimacies.  He knew her favorite color was purple, but pink roses were her favorite flower.  She knew he wore black, not because it was his favorite color, but for the intimidation quality and the ease to slip into shadows.  She knew he loved his mother, and the hardest thing he ever did was take the Alpha position from his father.  She didn't know exactly what being Alpha entailed, but understood taking the power of the position away, from someone he loved, was hard.  He knew she was ticklish at times, but only if she allowed herself to be.  He was glad she allowed herself to be with him.  She might be small, but she possessed a will of iron.  She believed in a higher power, good would always triumph over evil, and love was what everything was about.
    Dmitry let the wave of love he felt for her, wash over him, and into her.  Violet gasped and looked at him.  Then she threw the blanket aside and crawled into his lap.  She wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him.  She didn't need to say anything; the emotions she was feeling flowed into his mind.  Dmitry felt himself shudder with hope.
     

 
    Chapter Seven
     
    Was following Dmitry into the wilds of Siberia, really the right thing to do?  Violet wondered, as she finished tying the laces on her brown hiking boots.  The private plane belonging to Dmitry’s people was preparing to land.  She glanced around at the leather seats and warm colors.  She wasn’t used to such luxury.  What would Dmitry’s house look like?  Did he live on a big estate?
    She looked out the window.  The large city of Yakutsk lay spread out below.  There was a long river nearby, and Violet remembered it to be the Lena River.  She was really glad to be here in the summer.  Siberia in the winter could be brutal.  Summer weather averaged around 70 degrees Fahrenheit, though they recorded highs in the 90's. The days were also longer with the sun coming up around 4 in the morning and going down around 11 at night.
    Dmitry said it was near 7pm. local time, so Violet changed the time on her watch.  She hoped the final hike into where ever they were going wouldn't be too far.  She
