"Mate!" Atlas heard his wolf excited in his head.
"Meredith our mate!"
"Our mate! She is ours!"
"Mine."
Atlas felt his heart swelled with new found love for her. Now all of this made sense.
They way he was attracted to her the first time they met. His possessiveness. His dominance.
And the fact that his wolf had taken an instant liking of her. His uncle had told him about mates and their unbreakable bond.
He had been scared. Afraid that some stupid bond would make him fall out of love with his Angel. He couldn't see himself with anyone apart from her.
She was his everything. It seems the moon goddess wasn't as cruel as he had thought.
Now he understood his wolf's obsession with her. He had thought it was because he was in love with her that's why his wolf liked her too but he knew.
