CHAPTER 64

This is not the way I wanted Declan to find out about my decision. I knew it would hurt him and I wanted to have a private conversation with him. After all, he wanted me for his chosen, and I had decided that if my mate didn’t come along, then I would choose Declan, then Lila changed everything. Does he expect me to remain single, or wait around for his Luna to pass away or something? As much as I love Declan, I need to go after my own happiness, and Gavin is the best choice for me.

Seeing the hurt in Declan’s eyes will be branded into my memory for all time. I chase after him, but by the time I get to the front porch, Duke is already entering the tree line. The howl that echoes through the forest is one of heartbreak and sorrow, and I can’t stop the single tear that trickles down my face.

“Hey,” Gavin comes up and wraps his arms around my waist, “He will get over it, just give him some time.” I know Gavin isn’t saying this to be mean, but I take a little offense to it anyway.

*I should have been the one to tell him in private, Gavin. Apparently, you don’t know your cousin the way I do,” I lower my voice to almost a whisper, “He really loves me, and I have just broken his heart.”

“So, do you want to go after him?” Gavin asks, with a bit of hurt to his own voice.

I stare at the tree line a moment longer, and then shake my head, “No, he needs some time.” I turn back to Gavin and try mustering a smile, “Let’s just concentrate on us for now.”

His eyes sparkle as he looks down at me, “I like the way that sounds. What do you have in mind?” He nuzzles my neck.

Deep down, I’m dying to go to Declan and Tala is pacing back and forth in my head, wanting to go as well, but it’s not fair to Gavin. I can’t keep doing this to him, especially if I’m going to accept him as my chosen. There isn’t anything I can do now, the damage is done, so now I will just give it a little time and then try to explain it to Declan. For now, I will continue on with life and having Gavin by my side is the best thing that I can do for
