The Immortal Prince

Not being able to find one's mate is not common, and from deep within me, I want to know what has caused this.
He sighs, rubbing the back of his neck. "It's a long story."
"Tell me. Please." I don't mean to make it sound like I'm begging, but I have to know. He's tried so hard not to touch me so far...There has to be a reason.
He tips his head back, the glow of the moon tracing the sharp edge of his jawline.
"A long time ago I was a very selfish person. I desired nothing more than to be by myself, and so I swore that I wouldn't care whether I had a mate or not. It wouldn't matter, because I didn't want them in my life," he admits.
