Jared's pov
The next day, Saturday, I got into my car, not knowing where to go. I drove around town mindlessly, hardly concerned with the fact that I was supposed to meet Jasmine at her house twenty minutes ago.
Blade's words circled around my head. It can't be right though, I had a mate.
My mind flashbacked to when Emerald told me she shifted with no mate.
Was my shock covering the relief I felt? Was I relived? Is it selfish?
Of course it is, I had to right to wish for her to be alone, just because I couldn't let her go.
I looked up to where I was driving now. I was pulling into Emeralds street. Without a brain, I stopped at her drive through and exited my car, remembering to grab the velvet box under the seat.
I knocked on her door and waited for an answer. Amanda answered
