‘I, Hudson Shadow of the Shadow Rock pack, reject you, Quinn Redwood as my mate and Luna.’ ‘You can’t reject me, the Moon Goddess doesn’t make mistakes’ ‘Well, she did this time’ ‘Are you sure? You want to break our bond?’ Hudson’s eyes flew open, his gaze falling on the upturned face of his mate as she watched him, her features pained. ‘Oh thank the Goddess, you are alive!’ he growled as he stepped into her and picked her up, crushing her to his chest. ‘W . .what are you doing?’ Quinn squeaked out, hanging limply against his frame, her feet inches from the floor. Placing on the floor, Hudson stepped back immediately, ‘I’m sorry! I didn’t mean . .’ he stammered. Quinn rubbed her arm protectively as she peered up at him through her lashes, ‘it’s OK’ she mumbled avoiding his gaze.
