It had been 24 hours before I finally decided to turn my phone back on. Just like I thought there would be. I had received about a hundred frantic texts and missed calls. They ranged between wanting to know what happened and pleading with me to talk to them. I just needed to put some distance between me and everything that had happened. By now Prince Griffin would have moved on. I clearly heard him say he would find a suitable Luna. All I did was make it easier on him.

I planned to move to my grandparents like I said I would, but instead of catching a flight, I would drive up there. I found a car lease company that had an office close to the WhiteOak pack.

I hated that I could not stop thinking about Griffin. Even if it was just a lasting effect of the matebound. He had been kind to me in the few hours we spent together. And even if I knew we could never be together, I was curious to see if you could even find a second chance mate if you’ve been rejected before.

“Grandma, don’t worry I am fine. I’ll be home with you in two days. Can you ask Lina if we can meet up I have some questions” I texted my grandma who had been worried sick according to her texts.

There was no doubt she would tell my parents about the text, so this one text was enough to reassure everyone. Her answer was swift, telling me

Every morning and night he would spend some time with her. Mating, without completing the process, using protection so she could not bear his pups. She loved her mate so much that she kept agreeing to it. Growing weaker and weaker from heartbreak every day. She could feel every time her fated mate.

It was a Sunday today and every Sunday Mom would make mascarpone–filled croissants with fresh fruits, fresh juices, eggs and bacon, french toast, and waffles. As a kid, I loved sitting in the kitchen with her reading. She would hum along with
