"You cannot keep mates apart while you bask in the company of your own mate, Alpha. If you decide to keep two mates away from each other because of a situation that was out of their control, then I would never mate with you!"
At those words, Lucas lets out a loud growl that scares me to my bones.
I back away from him, slightly scared of his now black eyes and elongated canines. I rarely see this threatening side of him, directing anger at me but I still had to stand my ground.
The veins on his neck strain as though they are about to pop and I feel anger directed towards me but I wasn’t going to leave here till he agreed to my demands because I meant every word I said.
He can’t keep two mates apart for issues out of their control and still enjoy the presence of his mate, that is unfair.
I remain strong in the face of Lucas’s dangerous form and I place my hands at both sides with folded fists to maintain a defensive stance.
