Finally Mate Bonding

Uncle Ray gave me a few pieces of warrior clothing. Although I hadn't actually been inducted, he said I should get used to wearing them because I was part of them now, after all.

I accepted and was about to put them on in the room when Uncle Ray was still there, unmoving and without the initiative to leave.

"Are you still insisting on your decision not to mate bond me until you can decide?" asked Uncle Ray, sounding desperate. I didn't respond immediately as I was still wearing the clothes he gave me.

I didn't turn around, but his words made me consider many things.

What if we couldn't contact Uncle Ray in times of need because there was no mate bond? In fact, mate bond was vital for werewolf mates not only to strengthen the bond that had been destined by the Moon Goddess but also as a way to establish a connection at a specific time.
