I hadn't put up a fight when Mat pushed me to Tristan, too in shock that Andrew would threaten Mat like that. It wasn't until I felt the tingles running through my arm when he grabbed me and pulled me behind him that I came back to my senses. I heard Theo's swallowed growl and gave him a funny look, he gave me an apologetic look in return. He must still be feeling the bond even if faintly. I suspect the only reason I wasn't is because Tristan had found me.
I was still trying to wrap my brain around that. Second chance mates were rare and it was unheard of for the person who initiated the rejection to have one. I shouldn't have one, I rejected Theo. Was it because the Moon Goddess understood that I couldn't love someone who had let my abuse go on, even if he didn't have a hand in it.
