Jo-anne POV
Her eyes opened, the room was dimly lit. She felt the hot sting of her own tears the instant she woke up; she recalled right away the moon Goddess’s words. Stripped T.J. of his Mate, to be her protector.
She sat bolt up right in the bed, and found her eyes right on the man, whose life her birth had ruined. “No.” she sobbed, and felt pain ripping through her heart; it was all her fault, her fault that he was alone. Tears fell from her eyes and she snapped her hands to the moons on her back. The mark of her protector, all her claws out.
Screaming as she clawed at herself, at the mark on her back, trying to remove it, she had to get them off of her, had to find a way to rid herself of those moons; that mark that had ruined his life, “GET IT OFF ME.” she screamed repeatedly.
