Mouth parted, I stood in utter disbelief, staring at Lucas Vega. His eyes flecked with gold as he stared upon my figure, moving from the shadows out into the moonlight. How is it that this man, a man I had detested because of his cocky personality, was the man I was supposed to be mated to?
So many questions ran through my mind, and as I got closer to him, flutters of nervousness flowed through my stomach. “You are my mate?”
It was a question, but it was also more of a statement. I couldn't believe the Fates had paired me with Lucas Vega, the notorious bad boy who wanted nothing more than to make my brother's life a living hell.
“Yes, I am. I waited so long for you to realize I was your mate, so I didn't have to be away from you any longer.” Lucas stepped closer towards me, and as he did, I felt myself become completely uneasy.
I shouldn't have felt this way around my mate, and yet I couldn't help it.
