Chapter 13

  Freya

  Oh my goddess, how did he find out? I felt guilty when he told me about Clay being my first kiss. It was the truth, but I never thought he would ever find out we were mates. I had already lost my hope that he would be able to find out about us. That's why I was willing to start a relationship with Clay. I knew he had been rejected, and no mate awaited him.

  But now that Matteo was claiming me, I felt sorry for Clay instantly. It was because I knew, deep in my heart, that I would choose my mate over him. Matteo was angry, and I could see that. I was scared and worried that he would do something terrible to Clay, and I didn't like that. He didn't know anything. 

  Our conversation ended well after I told him I hated him and started crying. I only did that to test him. I want to know whether he will feel guilty and try to console me. And when he did, I already knew that I had won. I found a way to get what I wanted.
