I nodded painfully, is throat tight with emotion. “It’s been a nightmare. This Soul Bond has brought me nothing but humiliation and pain.” My micr smacked slightly. Tveryone Thinks I’m just a desperate enega trying to climb the Park hierarchy. No me believes I’m truly his mate–not even Derek. Thimself!
My hands clenched into fists on the table as I confessed the complexity of my feelings. The worst part is that even though he rejected me, even though hei cold and curl, I still feel this… this pull toward him. My well still recognizes him as our mate. She doesn t understand why he won’t accept
