Capítulo 52: Chapter 52

I snatched my hands out of his hold. I can't just blindly support his every move, mating is supposed to be about partnership and if he was serious about seeing me as an equal, then he needed to show it. My father was right. I needed to grow up. I was willing step up and take my place of responsibility in Jon's life. I knew what I was entitled to and it was time I took it. "Appreciate? Am I supposed to feel grateful for being left out of my mate's trials?" "As opposed to what? Feeling resentful? I don't have time for this, Diana!" "You don't have time for what, a mate? Then you should've thought of that before you claimed me!"

"I'm beginning to wish I did." Ouch. That hurt more than I expected it to. It felt like a chill had taken over my heart. The silence between us was thick and wounding.

"Diana I didn't mean..." Jon started. I sighed.

"Yes, you did." I whispered. He stared me down, his eyes asking me a million questions. I looked away.
