I swallowed hard, unsure of what to say. His words were so sudden and unexpected “But…but…don’t you have a mate?” I asked with my eyes wide in shock.
He shook his head, and leaned back with slightly sad eyes. “Three years ago, she cheated on me, and I rejected her. Since then, I have been without a Luna.” He said with a sigh.
I gasped softly. “I’m so sorry. I didn’t know.”
He gave me a small smile and leaned forward. “Val, leave him. He doesn’t deserve you,” he said, “Come to my pack. Be my Luna. I promise you Valeria, I’ll make you happy. I’ll love you with everything that I have.” He swore, his eyes burning with so much sincerity.
My breath caught in my throat. The way he looked at me like I was the only thing that mattered. However, I wasn’t ready to make that sort of decision. I politely declined Dante’s proposal and excused myself. He had barely managed to give me his contact before I ran off.

I didn’t see Jerry the next day or the day after. He didn’t text or call me once, and I didn’t either. I was getting fed up with being treated less. The only way I knew that Jerry was still alive was through Nancy’s WhatsApp statuses. I had never been a social media person, but I couldn’t help checking Nancy’s statuses with bitterness in my heart as I watched my mate care for my sister like his own fated mate.
Two days later, Nancy sent me a message. Under the message was a link.
~ The moon goddess has really blessed you with a wonderful mate ~
I furrowed my eyebrows in confusion. What was she saying?
Nothing in the world could have prepared me for what I saw when I clicked the link.
