Chapter 43. Guilt
Maya was crying quietly all the way down until the Lycan kingdom and Reid didn’t know what to do. She did not show it to him and neither did she sob or weep, but her eyes were red and puffy and she was wiping them with her palms every few seconds as she turned away to
stare at the window.
He never wanted a mate in the first place, never looked for one. And when he saw how
finding a mate changed his best friend Gideon, he decided to stay away from wolf mingling events and stick to the she-wolves he already knew, considering them safe options. Luckily,

That would allow him to be there to protect her if needed as it was required from their positions. She was already his Luna regardless of being marked and married to some annoying werewolf Alpha.
And now his Luna was on her own.
It was her silent order, of course, to take her best friend out of this place. For some reason, she considered that more important than their initial plan and he decided to trust her instincts as Maya’s safety suddenly became of prime importance to him too.
But he knew that he would pay for this. Because Gideon trusted him what he treasured the most and he failed his Alpha and his king.
