Everly POV

The following day I thought I had made it; I thought I could go the entire day without dealing with mate dramas. Once he realized I was his mate, and after his persistence yesterday, I knew it wouldn’t be the last time I would be hearing from him. Valen didn’t seem like the type that was used to being knocked back by a woman. But he had to get used to it. There was no way I would allow my son to be taken from me.

Stepping out of my office, I groan when I see him walking down the corridor toward me and was going to turn in the opposite direction to escape out the side door and back to the safety of my apartment before having to retrieve my son from Preschool.

“Everly,“

“What? Alpha Valen, I am busy,“ I call over my shoulder. He jogs after me.

“Too busy to speak with your mate?“ He asks.

“Yep, definitely too busy for you, “ I tell him, continuing toward the door that led outside.

“Hmm, so you hire liars here because that cleaner just told me you should be going on your lunch break right now and that you aren’t busy,“ Valen says before gripping my arm. Sparks rushed up my arm and I jerked away from his touch as I turned to face him. Valen growls at me, and I glare at him.

”Geez, what is your problem? No need to act repulsed by me, ” he snaps at my reaction.

”I never said you repulsed me, but thanks, I will add repulsion to my list of reasons for hating you, ” I tell him though that was a lie; I didn’t hate him, his arrogance and the fact he couldn’t remember me irritated me but hate was too strong of a word.

Everything in me was calling me to press against him, to touch him and mark myself with his scent, some primal urge to claim him, but I shoved it down, ignoring it. He had my hormones and brain all muddled when he was near, and I wanted to run
