DEVON'S POV
“I rejected Lyra as my mate.“ I told Jason.
He was quiet at first. “You did what you had to do.“
“Did I?“
“Yes. It was necessary. You don't want to be tethered to her in any way when it comes to questioning day. The people will certainly respect you more for it.“
“You think?“ I wonder if it was enough. I would be by myself for the rest of my life.
“You are saving them from a great evil by rejecting your own Luna.“
“That's okay.“
“How did she feel about it?“
“She rejected me too.“
“What?! Lyra certainly has guts.“ That was the same reaction I had, too. How dare she?
“I know. She just proved herself to me. She doesn't care. I won't care about her either.“
“I'm sorry, Alpha.“
I know Jason was hurt by Lyra, too. They were even closer than we were. She got to Jason.
