“Why does Valdor feel like home to me?” I asked, needing to understand. He moved closer and, to my surprise, took a seat right beside me—close enough that I could sense his energy swishing across my skin. “I wish I knew,” he said quietly, and there was this odd catch in his tone that had me turning to examine his features. “I also wish I knew why it feels right to have you here and why it was empty when you left. You’re a shifter, but it has never felt like there’s any difference between our races.”
