"Helen told me that fated mates are linked... even in death. Is it true? If something happens to one of us after the Ancient Blood Marriage, does the other die too?"

After that bloody massacre, I desperately longed for a home. So, when my wolf awakened and recognized Drew, I didn't hesitate to form a mate bond with him, even though he had nothing to his name.
