I was taken aback when Beta Paul told me the Divine Priestess wanted to meet with me. I couldn't fanthom why the oldest werewolf would want to see me.
Had Storm asked her to assist me in finding my mate as well? I know Storm. If he is getting mated, he might feel that I will be lonely. He is perfectly capable of asking her to find me the mate I don't want.
"Are you sure you don't want a mate?" Kitai inquires curiously.
"Yes, I'm sure," I insisted firmly. He laughed at me. "Liar. You're just afraid."
"I'm not afraid," I grit out in irritation, making him laugh even harder.
The reason I don't want a mate is a little more complicated, but one thing is certain: I don't want one.
I ignore the looks I get as I make my way to the Alpha's Pavilion, feeling more confident now that I've showered and am fully dressed in a clean pair of jeans and a shirt.
