Allison’s POV I had already been running for half an hour before I heard him in my head, telling me that he loved me all of a sudden!? I scoffed in my wolf form and kept going before closing my private link with him, the mighty Alpha of the valley. My wolf wimped at the thought that we were abandoning our mate when he said he wanted us back, needed us, and was willing to go after me. I believed him that he would, and I didn’t get it. He had a new mate. I felt the pain of the rejection that night when I told him I loved him, but he couldn’t let me go, that selfish bastard. I was to suffer for existing like I had since I was born. I didn’t even slow down my pace when I finally found my way through the pack border. I was a rogue now. I may be an ex-mate to an Alpha, but that didn’t change
