DANTE
I watched Amber walk away towards the train station. Her head turned back once or twice as she tugged her shiny case behind her.
You’re connected.
I didn’t need my wolf to tell me that.
I felt an affinity to her, and it was nothing like the mate bond I’d shared with Sasha that day.
FLASHBACK
“Are you looking forward to finding your mate?”
I’d looked up at my father, grunting something inaudible.
He was nervous because he thought I’d end up like my brother, Dominic, who was mateless.
My eyes scanned the room, landing on Dominic as he glared at everyone around him.
Unsociable, that’s all, Mother had said.
My chest ached at the thought of her words in my mind. I could still smell her perfume, hear her sweet yet authoritative voice.
She’s gone, Dante.
