He told me all about his pack and the packhouse, about duties I would be expected to perform as his Luna. It was nice, though I was still a little wary. I waited for the other shoe to drop.

“He’s my mate, Liam,” I answered softly.

“Yes, but you’re a werewolf. You can reject your mates,” he says. My brows furrowed in confusion at his words.

“You want me to reject my mate?” I ask him, knowing doing that would be shunning the moon goddess for the gift she gave me.
