I took a deep breath and calmed myself down enough to ask Ann, "Have you found your mate?"
Ann's lips then upside down, her eyes misty. She stared into thin air. I hoped she would not cry, I did not want to soothe anybody. As if answering my prayer, she sighed heavily and opened her mouth.
"I had a mate."
"Had?" I questioned, my mind twirling, "I thought mates were forever, or do you mean you lost him to death?" I ask quietly, my voice softening.
"No," She shook her head. "He rejected me." I gasped, unable to believe it. Why would anyone reject a sweet person like Ann? I reached out to comfort her but she continued.
