Chapter 537: Talia's personal guards

Talia was overwhelmed.

'Was it OK to tell them we are mates?', she asked Damon through their private mind-link.

'Why wouldn't it be?', he asked back.

'I don't know. Isn't it too soon?' She was thinking that the issue with Marcy was still fresh and the danger from Alpha Edward was too real and what if this announcement only made things worse?

'Now I know I made a big mistake, kitten', Damon said. 'I was supposed to do this on the day I brought you here. Now stop doubting and look at our people who are eagerly waiting for your response.'

Talia turned to see numerous heads bowed toward her.

That Talia's movement allowed Keith to see her neck. His eyes flashed with disbelief and grief when he saw a mark there and he quickly bowed his head. His fist was clenched so tightly that his knuckles turned white, and he hoped that no one noticed how shaken he was.
