"Why are you so cold to me?" Lo asked. She didn't understand it. This should be a blessing to them both. Tristan stopped at the threshold of the door. She could see his muscular form tense, his large hands clenched at his sides. A thick silence followed; it was almost suffocating. Lo felt as if she couldn't breathe. "I'm no colder to you than any other." He spoke without turning back. Lo felt like her heart was being slowly crushed. "But... we are-" Lo fumbled with her words. "Enough. You are a child; you can't possibly understand the complications of our situation." Tristan growled as he spun around. His dark green eyes met her crystal blues with a fierce look. "I... I don't understand. My mother said you would cherish me from the moment we met... until our dying days." Lo said as she felt the hot tears start to drip down her cheeks. She knew she was young and naive, but she was no child. She was nearly grown. "She was wrong. I'm already mated; I will not abandon her. My father wants you dead. I shouldn't have stopped him." Tristan said with an icy tone as he turned and slammed the door on the way out. Lo could barely get her breath. She felt crushed, and it was more than emotional. It felt like he had just wounded her soul.

"I hate you. Why would I want your help?" Shrugging off his hand, I moved away from him. He sighed softly, patiently. "No, you don't hate me. And you need me." "Get out of my head." His eyes started to smile before his mouth stretched in one of its own, slowly. "I'm not in your head." He wasn't smug, my mate was never smug, but his gaze held triumph. He wasn't reading my mind, and I had just confirmed what he knew all along. "Shut up. Don't look at me like that." He chuckled and it landed right in my belly. Stupid, stupid heart. I needed out. Out of this place and more importantly, out of his presence. It only served to distract me when I needed to stay determined. "You're mine, love. Don't bother running. I have the means and the will to find you. And I always will find you." Considered as both cursed and blessed with immense power, Daria learns to live with the hatred of the source of that power, and chooses to survive on the love of her people-of course that doesn't include Alpha Micah, who only seems to tolerate her at best. One day, everything changes and Daria is forced to flee her homeland. As she adapts in her life as a human, she makes friends. She even falls in love. She grows confident, enjoys life again. But nothing is permanent. One fateful night sends an earthquake through her life and a discovery that she refuses to accept. And her world collapses and brings her to her knees yet again. But she is strong now. She will fight. He may be her mate, but he won't have her that easily.
