Chapter 93: A Second Rejection? Sophie

I chase after Margot who is running like someone lit her a***on fire. For a woman whose been recovering from a broken mate bond, she's remarkably fast. "Margot. MARGOT!" I yell after her.

She whirls around on me, her eyes wild. "I can't. I can't. I can't do it again. Please don't make me. I can't do it again. I can't, I can't," she says, breaking down into s**bs.

I wrap my arms around her as she crumples to the floor, and I hold her while she gets a hold of herself.

I begin rocking her, looking up to see Lucas and Kinsley. Lucas nods and leaves, Kinsley stays but keeps her distance.

"No one is going to make you do anything, Margot. No one. I won't allow it. Hunter won't allow it. You came to us for protection and safety and that's what you're going to get. We do not allow public claimings in

this pack and we do not allow mates to force their mark on their mates. Everything in this pack is consensual. You will not be forced into anything," I say to her as I rock her. She's holding on to me like I'm a lifeline and she's a drowning woman.

"Why? Why would the Moon Goddess do this to me? What did I do wrong?" she s**bs.

I look at Kinsley who presses her lips together and walks over,

rubbing Margot's back. "Maybe you didn't do anything wrong, Margot. Maybe you did something right," Kinsley says.

"How can you say that? You know what it's like," Margot says, looking up at Kinsley fear and anger in her eyes.

"I do. And that's why I can say that. Joshua was an a** I don't even know the man, but I feel confident in saying that. I do know Alpha Ezra though. He was mated to Alpha Hunter's sister, so I met him several times over the years. Before your make any rash decisions, think about this. Hunter told him to let you go just now, not to chase after you, and he didn't fight him, he didn't try to get to you. I know the pull of the mate bond. I'm assuming it's just as strong for second chance mates?" she asks.

Margot nods.

"So, it must have taken a lot of effort on his part to control his wolf and walk away from you to give you the space you need right now."

She takes a deep breath, sitting up. "Where is he?" she asks, wiping her eyes. I watch as she begins to transform back into a well put together Luna. It's a bit unnerving to me as I watch her dry her eyes, set her face back into a normal, passive look and take another deep breath before standing up. I wonder how frequently she's had to hide behind this mask.

"He went with Alpha Hunter to his office."

I stand as well, watching Margot. "I'd like to go to my room for the rest of the day. Il join you for the execution tomorrow, but I need some time."

Take all the time you need, Margot," I say, and she nods again before heading toward her room. She stops and turns to look at

"Thank you for keeping me safe like you said you would."

"I don't offer temporary safety here. That's not to say we don't have to fight for it, but Hunter and I are firm in our beliefs. For what it's worth, I think Alpha Ezra has also had a change of heart and is now on board with the changes that Hunter and I have been fighting for."
