End the Mistake
When vampires attack the border, my mate's childhood female friend and I both end up trapped in the camp.
My mate, Damon Aldridge, shifts into his wolf form and rescues her without a second thought, leaving me alone to face the flames and vampire assault.
The next day, I submit a request to the council of elders to sever our mate bond.
Damon shows up with a stormy expression, demanding, "You have a priestess bloodline. You can heal yourself. Lydia's more fragile, so I rescued her first. Are you seriously jealous over this?"
I meet his eyes calmly. "Yes, but none of that matters anymore."
