THE ALPHA WHO SAVED ME BY HIS MATE BOND

My heart raced with determination as I dragged Magnus outside. "Where are we going?" he intoned blandly as I matched us both further away from the house.

"What are you talking about…?" he asked.

"I already told you nothing is going on; it's all in your head," he replied with a look of genuine perplexity.

I swallowed hard, fighting back the tears as I folded my arms across my chest. "I'm not going to believe that anymore," I replied, then edged away when he tried to reach for me. "You seem like you, you talk like you, but somehow you also don't, and it's confusing."
