Again, he is fucking another woman.

"Easy, Dawn," I sit on the edge of the bed, my hands clasped in my lap, trying to soothe my wolf.

Nathan, our mate, and our tormentor, has laid with another tonight. Not for the first time... 

***

Ally endured the torment of the mate bond nearly every day- her mate kept fucking different women. She had to bear it for the sake of the entire pack's hope.

Her unborn child and the support of her best friend kept Ally going. However, when she discovered that her best friend was also one of the many women who had slept with her husband, it shattered her.

In a confrontation with her friend, Ally was pushed into the sea, causing her to lose her unborn child. With her last hope gone, she considered ending her life but was saved by her mate's twin brother...

Saved By My Mate's Twin Brother

　　"You're not safe here, Ally," Elliot says, "You need to rest somewhere hidden until Nathan... until he calms down."


　　I shiver, not from the temperature, but from the shock of his words. I never imagined he'd dare to step between us. He doesn't look at me with pity or affection; his gaze is determined, almost clinical. And it scares me more than Nathan's volatile temper.


　　"Rest?" The word comes out as a half-whisper, half-laugh.


　　Elliot stops pacing and turns to me, his eyes intense. "He won't find you. It's for your safety, Ally." His voice is firm. Not concern- Elliot has never shown that for me- but something else.


　　"Safe..." The word feels foreign on my tongue. Ever since Nathan claimed me, safety has been nothing but a cruel joke whispered in the dark. Hesitation wraps around me. Can I trust his brother?


　　Memories flood back to me, the loss of my child so profound it hollows out my insides, the abuse that painted bruises on my soul.
