Chapter 7 ***Auri’s POV*** I couldn't function.

Here I was, sitting in Alpha Logan's fancy car, driving towards my house to pick up my things.

My mind still reeling from what just happened.

"I told you our mate wouldn’t reject us"

Kai was smug and she had been ecstatic to hear that our mate was an Alpha.

3 I was not.

I was not even entertaining the idea of being a mate, let alone a Luna I had heard the confusion and anger in his voice when he asked why he would reject me.

I thought it was obvious and especially coming from a man who was notorious for throwing out the weak.

‘We aren't weak though"

‘Right, but he doesn’t know that.

He only can judge me by how! look.

And we look like we’ve been through hell and back again"

1 ‘And like he said, we are strong for it, strong for surviving it"

Kai was chastising me as we drove down the road.

1 I gave directions where I needed to, but for the most part, we stayed quiet.

I could feel him glance over or stare for a little bit before looking back to the road.

Truthfully, I was melting under his gaze, his scent, like firewood and fresh rain.

It was a hell of a combination but it made me want to either run away into the forest or bury my face in his chest.

He was so built and so large that I felt towered over.

But instead of being intimidated, I felt protected and safe.

He had pulled me to him and hugged me.

I just about lost my mind.

Having a mate was so much different than what I thought.

How was anyone able to reject this feeling, or even come close to fighting it? He was in all of my senses and my overly heightened ones were making me lose my head.

Looking at him, he oozed strength and sex.

Kai finally forced her eyes on me and I stared at my mate, his black hair was messy and fell past his ears when it wasn’t slicked back.

He was tan and his eyes were an ice blue that lit up as though the moon was staring into me.

My heart had hammered a hole in me and I wondered if it would ever work properly again.

We pulled up to our street and I directed him to which one it was.

I panicked for a second.

"TP IL_.be right back."

He laughed, unbuckling his seat.

"I’m not going to allow you to carry your stuff to my car alone."

I nodded and took a deep breath.

It was fine.
