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 49

Instead of finding his mate, he was stuck at the pack house learning how to be a good Beta. After his training, he still didn't go out to find her. He said he would just "let nature take its course" or some shit like that.

"How long have they been gone?" I questioned.

Jordyn shrugged. "Shawn left an hour ago."

I wonder who his mate is. She'll probably be all nice and shy, but not around Shawn. She'll love Shawn, like all mates do. She'll love his short black hair, his cocky attitude, and his scent. What if she hates his scent? I know a lot of people who can't stand the smell of Shawn. What if she's like allergic to coconuts and whenever she smells Shawn, she like passes out or something.

"What's with that face?" Jordyn asked, snapping me out of my thoughts. "You look scared."

I shrugged. "Just thinking scenarios about Shawn's mate."
