The revelation of my fate hit me like a truck. Him? My mate? It seemed impossible to accept that the universe would pair me with the man who had shattered my heart.

He clearly hadn’t forgotten that night either. In his mind, I was still guilty.

His words cut deep, and it frustrated me that they still had such power over me. I fought back tears that threatened to spill.

Kane’s iron grip on my arms finally loosened.

“I’ll say this one last time – whether you believe it or not, I wasn’t the one who drugged you that night.”

I paused, turning to face him. “What bond?”

Playing dumb was my only defense.

As he stepped toward me, I backed away.

“Don’t pretend you can’t feel the mate bond.”
