Enduring the pain and loud cries from deep inside and torturing yourself as you keep a safe distance enough to keep yourself from falling to hard..
Is just basically what it takes to label your feelings as skinny, and lacking.
And not being able to nourish it completely and properly.
Bonnie was struggling hard enough, not liking one bit of the idea of risking everything on line just because of her selfish and silly lingering feelings.
What could she have done? She's helpless, fighting back the pain and love sick effects from Cupid and his god damned arrow wouldn't have done anything any better, she's nothing against it. She's just a mere human being may I remind you.
"I might have infatuated on someone, and that someone is no other than my bestfriend. Sure as hell wasn't easy."
And that got me betting billions on this statement.
My mum always used to tell me what it's like to see your mate for the first time. She used to say that at that moment, everything around you stopped, that nothing else mattered.
And nothing else would matter. If it wasn't for the little girl clinging to my leg right now. That little girl that trusts me with her life, that beautiful little girl that made me hold on and not give up on life. That little girl, whose father is standing in front of me right now. He's my mate.
The edges of his lips curve and he looks up and down as if checking me out.
"Long time no see." Are the words that first come out of his mouth that break the silence.

Lexie is an Alpha's daughter. She faces a hard few days and thinks a night at the club will help her get through this. A few drinks won't hurt, right? At least that's what she thinks. Yet that night will change everything sooner than she would ever imagine.
When the next day, her pack gets attacked, everything is chaos. Her mother and father are killed and her world shatters. She's forced to run away and leave everyone that she still has left behind. She thinks she has no one... that's until she finds out about another heartbeat in her body.
Raising a baby on your own is hard enough. After a few years she finally meets her mate though and it turns out she knows him after all. How will she confess that her mate is actually her daughter's father? What will happen now?
We don't live in a fairy tale where every story has a happy ending though. Real world isn't that easy...if you can call a world full of mystical creatures very real.
