244 Talia's friend (2)

Talia remembered Mindy's words from the Summer Solstice festival, and how she disliked the idea of being mated to an Alpha.

Mindy didn't want to fit into a mold that someone else created for her, even if that someone else is her mate. After all, Mindy is a confident she-wolf with many accomplishments behind her and many dreams ahead.

For Mindy, being a Luna would be like cutting off her wings and forcing her to stay in one place.

Sure, Mindy might be able to do other things also, but considering how busy Lunas are with managing the pack and hosting (and attending) parties and other functions, there wouldn't be much time left for anything else. After all, being a Luna is a full-time job, and a mate bond will make Mindy wish to submit to her mate and she might neglect willingly the things she currently holds dear.
