DAMIEN’S POVI hated the lady that came and took my mate away from me. Why couldn’t she just give us a minute to speak to each other and get to know one another? She had ruined a moment that we had both been waiting for for a very long time and all because she thought that I was beneath Elena. I could see that was what she thought because of the look she gave me when she saw her talking to me. However, I was still happy that I had finally seen her and she was exactly the way that I had been dreaming about her. At this point, I felt like everything had come full circle. I was now certain that my mate was here and it was even more real to me now because I had actually seen her. The only problem was that I felt like I was going to face now was the fact that the alpha and everyone else in this pack was going to be determined to keep us apart. I felt like ever since I got here I had been trying my best to finally reach her and each time I felt like I was very close to seeing her or meeting

DAMIEN’S POVI was feeling horrible, I felt like a child who had been given a toy as a gift and then had it taken away from him. I hadn't seen Elena in a few days and I couldn’t understand why she was avoiding me. I was still working in the garden with Charles and, thankfully, he hadn't noticed that I was always jumpy. The reason why I was convinced that Elena was avoiding me was that she knew that I was here and yet, despite knowing that I was here and waiting for her, she still didn’t come to see me. I wondered if Lukas realized that she had found her mate and decided to imprison her and I also wanted to ask Charles if he had seen her or if he had heard anything, but I was afraid that he would know that there was something between us.I could only hope that he would be the one to bring it up and, unfortunately for me, Charles just didn’t seem interested in Lukas and his family. Charles loved working in the garden and most conversations that I had with him were centered around the wo

DAMIEN’S POVFor a moment I could have sworn that I had a hearing problem because I couldn’t believe what Elena was telling me. How was she Luka’s luna when she wasn’t even his mate? I was her mate. Was it the power that Lukas offered her that she had gone after? I honestly couldn’t understand how and why she ended up here in this place with Lukas.“What do you mean you are the Luna?” I asked her “how are you his Luna if you are my mate?” I asked.“ He mated himself to me okay,” she said.“ As far as I know, wolves don’t choose their own mate and if it does happen, then you have to be in agreement with him,” I said.“Well, I wasn't and he left me no choice,” she said, but it was like I wasn’t even hearing what she was saying because my brain was working hard to make sense of everything and in the process, I was coming up with my own explanations of what was happening here.“ You always have a choice. Is it the money or the power?” I asked.” He tricked my parents right,” she said “he

DAMIEN'S POV All I could think about was the conversation that I had with Elena, I could see that she was genuinely afraid of Lukas, and the fact that she wasn’t sure of what he would do if she ran away seemed to scare her even more. I could understand why she was afraid, the man had already told her that he would kill everyone she loved if she dared to betray him and this was not a risk that she was willing to take. As upset as I was that she was choosing to stay with him and make me her side piece, I also had to kind of put myself in her shoes and try to understand why staying here was so important to her, I may not have agreed with her decision to stay here but I knew I had to understand if I had any hope of having a future with her. I might not have had any memory of my own family but I knew that I wouldn’t be comfortable with making a decision if that decision was going to affect them. I didn't want to be selfish and force her to come with me bu

DAMIEN’S POVI decided to walk away from Elena because I felt like what we were doing was wrong and that was very funny because there was nothing wrong with what I was doing. There was nothing wrong with me wanting to spend some time with my mate, there was nothing wrong with me even wanting to be intimate with her. She belonged to me and I to her and nothing that anyone did could change that. As I walked further and further away from her room I stopped and asked myself what the hell I was doing, why was I walking away from my own mate? Why was I feeling like there was something wrong with being intimate with her? If she had been with someone else other than Lukas would I so easily walk away from her? I felt like by walking away I was giving victory to Lukas and indirectly saying that I wasn't man enough. I couldn’t allow Lukas to win, Elena was mine and I had to fight for her and besides, Lukas wasn’t even here to stop me from being with her. I stormed back to her room and burst thro
