Just Once

Three years of marriage brought nothing but a thorn to my heart. My child was critically ill and in need of treatment. My husband didn't care and even called me unfaithful. In my desperation, I sold my body and soul in exchange for the recovery of my child. His name was Benjamin. Dominating the underworld and influencing politics, he was like a poppy that impressed, captivated, broke, and disillusioned me. He said that different from the others who approached me only for sex, he wanted every part of me. He also said that I was his only one and that nothing in this world could compare with me. Then he told me that these were all lies. I told him that these were true to me.

Chapter 41

I growled at my best friend. "He cheated three times. I had to feel that pain three times. And the third time actually killed a part of me," I hissed. "He killed my wolf, Shawn. He hurt me too much. That guy is not my mate." I thought my best friend would've agreed with me.

Dr. Nale spoke softly with sympathy. "Princess, you can't change who your mate is. Alex screwed up, big time. But he came here to save you."

I scoffed. "He came here to be a hero. He came here cause he felt bad for me. He felt guilty. None of this changes anything. Alex rejected me. He blamed me for having to go though the pain of him being with Wendy. He put me in a coma, but right after I wake up he leaves-"

"He left to give you time" Shawn interrupted me.

"He left to be with Wendy," I spat. "Then he came back and apologized. And being the naÃÂ¯ve person I am, I gave him another chance. Then he takes me to meet his pack. But he has Wendy lined up to be Luna."
