I watched as Nadia stormed off from my office without even throwing a glance at me. It left me in a foul mood. I also didn‘t appreciate my Beta flirting with her, so I had to remind him to back off. I hope he got the warning and stayed away from her because I would fucking castrate him if he made any move at her. 

My nose was still flaring with anger. I had no fucking idea if I was pissed off with Dominic or more with myself. 

What was I thinking when I blurted out that rejection? It was the last thing I wanted to do. My mark on her was my only link to her, and I never wanted to erase that bond. I wanted her. But the thought of her not wanting my mark pained me. What do I need to do so I can make her stay? 

If I ordered her to stay, then it would be another Andrea again. And I didn‘t think I wanted to take the risk of her hating me. And it‘s the biggest reason I was ready to reject her, so she could have what she wanted. But did she? She stopped me. 

Fuck! She kissed me I closed my eyes and rubbed my palms against my face, fucking confused with everything in m y head right now.

 “Are you done staring at the empty door?” Jacob‘s mocking voice snapped me back to the present, and I turned my head in the direction of his voice. The fucker was taking another sip of my expensive rum. 

“What the fuck are you still doing here? And who told you you‘re welcome to drink that?” I walked over to him and grabbed the bottle on the desk in front of him, sealing its cork tightly before placing it back in my liquor cabinet. 

“Relax. I know we just cockblocked you, but don‘t you think you were going too fast? Is everything okay between you now?” 

“We even hardly talked, when you bolted in unannounced.” I sighed in desperation as I slumped my body into my chair. 

“I felt your fucking aura seeping through the office door, so I rushed in. What riled you up?” 

“I almost rejected her.” 

“What? The fuck, Riley. Don‘t tell me you don‘t like her. Because you looked like a smitten dog, mind you, not a wolf, but a fucking dog while looking at her. What‘s with the rejection drama?” 

“That‘s why she was here, right? She wanted that mark gone.”

 “Idiot! Are you a fucking Alpha? Her uncle wanted that mark gone. But I didn‘t even think for  a second that she wanted it away. You told me you marked her three full moons ago, so why did she show up just now? Beaten and dragged by her uncle?” 

Fuck! He just called me an idiot, but I would have to agree with this fucker. She didn‘t want my mark gone from her, and that‘s why she kissed me. Are females really this fucking hard to read? 

 “Instead of rejecting her, why didn‘t you ask where she had been for the last three months and why did she run away from you? There‘s more to that female than what meets the eye. Get to know her. If she‘s not worth your time and the Luna title, then reject her. Let her go.” 

My heart constricted at the last part. 

I didn‘t even think for a second that she wasn‘t worth my time or that she wouldn‘t fit as my Luna. The question was, would she give me her time so I could prove my worth as a mate, as her Alpha?
