Liam POV

What the hell was wrong with these people? It was as though they didn’t see Fiona for the remarkable woman she truly was. Did they compare her to that stupid girl Celeste and find her wanting, simply because she had failed to shift? That didn’t bother me. I would protect my mate. I didn’t care that she didn’t have a wolf. I cared that she was my other half, a blessing from the moon goddess, and already I could see that she had a heart of gold. This family, it was going to be their loss when Fiona was gone. I had seen this beford, where one daughter or son was favored over the other and it always resulted in a breakdown between the family members and loss of contact on the less favored child’s end. These people were fools. Fiona was worth ten times more than that little bitch Celeste. At least she hadn’t tried to drug and seduce me. She was innocent of all wrongdoings. I felt my chest tighten as I looked at her and saw the beautiful girl she truly was.

“Fiona” I took her hands and held them tightly. “I will never betray you. I want you to be my mate. If you are happy to come back with me, we can organize your things and get you out of here.”

She would never have to step foot in this miserable pack if she didn’t want to. It would be entirely her choice and her decision, Privately, I thought she was better off.

I ignored her family. She looked up at me her eyes shining. “I barely know you” she hesitated “and um, I’m not quite ready to.” she blushed

It didn’t take a genius to figure out what she was alluding to. Being a mate meant more than just mating with each other. I just wanted her beside me. The other stuff, well that could some with time. She could take all the time she needed as long as she let me take care of her.

Besides, it was not as if I would even broach the subject considering what she had just gone through. What kind of man did she take me for? I simply wanted her back at my pack where she could be treated like the princess, I saw her for. Not to mention she would be safe from harm. Not just physical, I thought absently, pushing away a loose strand of her hair from her face, but emotional as well. This girl had been neglected far too long and now I wanted her to experience what it was like to be showered with love and affection. I wasn’t as ruthless as the rumors suggested and for my mate, I would do anything. The thought I hadn’t wanted one before barely crossed my mind. I never thought I would find her and now I had, I didn’t want to let her go.

“You can have a separate room,” I told her softly, even though it pained having to make that compromise or rather, sacrifice. “We don’t need to rush into things. You were planning on transferring anyway, so how about it?”

“Not so fast you deceiving little bitch,” a voice roared and we turned to see two mature–aged people striding towards us, looks of rage on their faces.

It was a woman and a man and both of them resembled the boy I had just killed but I could have been wrong.
