MARK'S POV Cold shivers ran through me. This has to be a dream. Samien surely couldn't have rejected me. I must be hallucinating. “I don't want to be with you,” She muttered, her voice resounding in the air. “Why?” The words slipped through my lips. “We've been mated by the moon goddess, why then don't you want us to be together?” “I'm to be engaged to Ryker and he's the one I want to be with. He's the one my heart has chosen.” “You and I know that's a lie. You're only doing this to save your father's reputation and not because you love him. You couldn't even look into my eyes when I asked you to.” “That's none of your business!!” She snapped. “Like I said, Ryker is who my heart belongs to.” I exhaled, my heart shattering. This was hard. I couldn't accept this, no matter how much
