Haven
I watch Deni as he makes a quick exist as everyone starts to leave. My fingers tighten around the bottle of the beer I’ve been drinking slowly, because I can’t stop thinking about what happened earlier. Sitting there next to Deni, my body literally plastered to his because I didn’t know how else to get close to him, had felt like the strangest thing.
My heart kept hammering in my chest, as I remembered that feeling that washed over me the moment I stepped in front of Michaelson, and defended…
My mate…I stare down at the bottle still shocked out of my mind.
Fuck…I have a mate… and he is a man.
I don’t know what to make of that. In my wildest dreams I never thought the goddess will give me a male for my mate.
I didn’t even recognize him. His scent didn’t do anything for me.
