"Why! Why Athena, I've done absolutely nothing wrong! I'm not going to hurt you, and I want to help you, why won't you let me?" "I told you when I met you. I don't want a mate! Mates-" I paused, not wanting to tell him the truth. "- mates just... hold you back! If you really care about me, LEAVE ME ALONE." I turned around and started walking away when he decided to say something else. "Onyx told me about your sister, and you don't-" "I don't what?" I seethed turning on him so quickly it would've made your head spin. "I don't need to be scared, terrified of you? That has nothing to do with my sister it has everything to do with her mate, though. She was abused, cheated on, and he made her feel so horrible she took her own life! I don't need you to tell me what I need to be doing-" my voice suddenly cracked, and everything was blurry as I collapsed. "I'm doing you a favor, just forget me." Tears leaked out of my eyes uncontrollably. "Trust me, Alpha."
