Alpha Nocturne's Contracted Mate

Allen shook his head slowly.

“Would you consider rejecting one of us?” He asked tentatively as Lexi stared at him aghast. “And willingly cause that level of pain to the ones who are supposed to be made just for me? Are you insane? I’ve seen what it does to you wolves. How could you even ask me to reject Greyson?”

“I never asked for you to reject Greyson,” Allen said quietly. “I’m fully aware that you could choose to reject me as well if you only wanted one mate. Only you can make that decision Lexi and quite honestly, after the way I’ve treated you, I would completely understand if you chose to accept the bond with Greyson and not me.” Lexi’s stomach dropped. Allen just kept surprising her time after time. “Greyson really saw you for who you were from the very first moment he met you. He didn’t back away, like a frightened pup,” He smiled bitterly, “He deserves the bond with you.”

She had expected him to insist that she reject Greyson…if he didn’t reject her first of course. After his reaction at the Enclave, she was fairly sure that Greyson wouldn’t want anything else to do with her.
