A Life Without My Mate

~~

Westin

Before I had left home, before I had told Reece that I just couldn't be in Colorado Springs any longer, I had met my mate. Well, I already knew her. It was a little awkward for me really. I had been assigned to Princess Rika when she was sixteen, and watching her for two years before she turned eighteen.

Up to that point, I had never looked at Rika as if she were anything other than my employer's daughter. I had protected her, and I had made sure that she was cared for, but she was old enough to be left independent at times, so it wasn't that intense for me. Not at the start anyway.

It was on her eighteenth birthday that everything changed for me. It was on that day that I knew who she was to me. I knew what I needed to do and how things would end up. It was the way that it always happened, wasn't it?

No. I was wrong. So very wrong. It wasn't how all things ended up, not even in this type of situation.
