His eyes were on me, but he wasn't speaking.
     “Gerald?” I touched his hand. “You have something to tell me?”
     All he said was “I understand.”
     But I felt the need to speak out. Guilt was building up in me, filling me up like a cup that was ready to overflow with water. His consistent look at me couldn't let me have a moment of peace.
     “Actually… Andrea and Raguel… They tricked me into spending a private time with Amon.” It was hard for me to maintain my flow of words, and I took in breaths. “I didn't realize he would try to seduce me.”
     My hands were rubbing against each other, the sweat forming on my palms acted as lubricant.
     But Gerald's expression did not change. “That's not a big issue on ground.” He shook his head about three times. “You have something that belongs to Amon.”
     Something that belonged to Amon? What if he knew I was pregnant with Amon's child?

**************************************

Was it all about love or the mate bond?
     My lover, Amon, had left me for a girl he claimed was his fated mate, and I was torn apart, feeling like there was no life without him.
     In just a month, I met Gerald, the Alpha of another pack, and he turned out to be my mate. But then, I was pregnant with Amon’s child.
     I had decided to keep my pregnancy a secret because of the rule of my pack, and Amon was never aware of it. Gerald marked me without a hint of it, but things turned crazy when Amon showed up in secret, claiming he loved me.
     I was conflicted, but there was more to Gerald that I didn't know. Everyone around me was hinting vague things about him that they weren't certain of.
     Well, whatever it was, I was going to accept it as part of my fate.

Soulbound: Cursed Fates Between Mates

Logan had his hands wrapped around me, gently pressing my face against his chest so the tears my eyes poured out was on him.

"Claudia is just my mate," he said, his hand touching my face to wipe the tears that threatened my eyeballs.

"But…" I raised my head to look directly into his eyes. "The connection between mates… has found you both together…"

He kept silent for a while, probably thinking through our love affair. We had spent three whole years together without being mates, and I had felt that out not being mates did not matter, love could cover all, right?

But then, Claudia, a girl from another pack had come into the picture, and that fated connection we didn't have had sparked between them, going against our relationship.

"No." He picked up a serious tone that seemed too believable to doubt. "She'll be my mate for just a short period of time, and I'll have nothing else to do with her."
