“She’s a werewolf,” Liam replied, beckoning for me to go

to him. I went to his side and he snaked a n arm around my waist, pulling me closer

to him. Salina scoffed and rolled her eyes.

For a second, I thought I misjudged her, o r maybe it was

because I was taking Liam from her. If the person I love was snatched away from

me, regardless of the reason, I’d be bitter too. So, I understand where she was

coming from

Liam’s hold tightened around me as if assuring me that

everything was alright. I hoped it was or a t least would. At this moment, I

trusted him with everything – mine, and ours. He had the power to take what he

wanted in any manner he wished, and I trusted that we were in the same boat.

I had once hoped for my mate to come to find me and take

me away from my old pack. I had once dreamed that my mate would look at me and

find me suitable for him – that he would accept me for who I am and not reject

because a small part of me wanted to use my mate if I ever had one. Use him to

get out. It was a horrible motive, but I was imprisoned. Bound to a promise,

held down by guilt.

Liam did all of it. He took me away from there, he

accepted me, and he treated me like I was worth it when I couldn’t even find it

in myself. I was using him. When I started to feel this way towards him, I
