**ASHTON**
I was not supposed to feel a stab of jealousy as I watched my mate's head gradually bounce in agreement with my response.Since that day I overheard the name of that man,it unsettled me,the same way seeing Tyler close to her made me desire to murder him.
I wanted more than anything to know who that man was,where he existed and how important he was to my mate,and if he still held a place in her heart.Somehow when she was speaking,he was the first to cross my mind.And seeing the way she sighed sadly,her eyes pitched at the glossy table top,I understood from within that it was an answer obvious to the eyes.
My mate was still in love with her first crush.
"I'm sorry,Ashton,"She mumbled softly,"Julian and I..."
"You don't need to tell me about him,little wolf,"I schooled myself to say,forcing on a smooth smile as she managed to gaze at me."We all have our past."
