"mate ... soulmate. every werewolf has a soul mate, whether it's a human or a fellow werewolf. mates are predestined from the moment they're born, and nothing can change them. like a puzzle, nothing but their mate can complete them." he answered while rubbing the back of his neck. "and you are my mate, caroline." my heart flutters when alex says my name, i love it when he says my full name. "alex ... i am your sister." i said quietly. "are you crazy?" "you still don't understand, cara? haven't you noticed all this time when i threatened every boy who wanted to approach you? when i hit joseph because he almost kissed you? you are mine, cara." i flinched when alex said i was his. "i'm not an item." i replied with an angry frown. "you know that's not what i meant." he said so
