“I don’t fucking know!” I shouted over my shoulder. “Away from here.

Away from Jaxson and Magic Side and the pack.”

“Come on, Savy. Stop this. I know it’s a shock. You just need time to get

used to the mate bond.”

I skidded to a halt and spun in horror. “Wait a minute, did you already

know about this?”

She nodded. “I’ve known about you two since you first shifted. It’s

impossible to miss. Your bond is so strong th—”

“You both knew, and you kept this from me all this time?” I clenched my

fists to keep my thoughts and hands under control as waves of betrayal and

anger burned through my veins.

She reached out, but I pulled away. I didn’t need her pity or comfort. It

was too late.

Sam let her hand drop. “You’d just been turned into a wolf. You had a

sorcerer trying to kill you. We knew it would be overwhelming. Too much

was at stake.”

“So you just left me out of the loop, like always.” My

voice cracked, and

I fought back the tears that were pooling in the corners of my eyes. “I’m done

with all of this. You, Jaxson, the pack. I can’t trust anyone.”

I turned to head back toward the collapsed cave to find Neve—who was

mercifully something other than a werewolf—but Sam caught my arm. “He

cares about you, Savannah. And I know you care about him, too.”

“You know nothing about how either of us feels. Now let me go!”

I tried to jerk my arm free, but she held on. “I care about you. And that’s

not because of some bond.”

Her words made my throat catch, but I pulled away and started walking. I

couldn’t handle this rollercoaster ride of emotions, and I didn’t know what to

believe anymore. There were too many unspoken words, too many hidden

truths.
