Since it was now known to everyone that Sam was my mate, there was no need to hide anymore. I stopped her from working as a servant and my father gave her a room in the Alpha quarters.
Anytime I had to leave the settlement, Robert would help me watch over her. Although my father had warned the pack, especially my mother, I knew how stubborn she could be. I couldn't take any chances.
Mason was still reluctant to accept Sam as my mate. He tried to talk me into rejecting her like he had rejected his mate but every time he brought it up, I shut him down. It was obvious he wasn't whole anymore. His emptiness, though he denied it, became more obvious when Alisa died. He was angry at my family for the way the girl was treated but he never did anything to protect her. There was a possibility that the moon goddess will not give him a second chance. He would have to choose a mate for himself eventually.
While I was headed to where I parked my jeep, Mason approached me.
