Song recommendation: Gone by Rosè
***
Ophelia attempted to speak, but nothing came out. She persisted in trying, but to no avail, and a peculiar sensation that she hadn't anticipated experiencing—combined with shock and panic—started to consume her spirit.
Nikolai.
To be completely honest, she tried but couldn't call that name, though she came close.
He made the word call. "Mate." Was she not his mate? Why, then, was he gazing at... She fixed her eyes on him then focused on his attention. Skyla Flores.
He gave her an intense look, but she was unable to identify the emotions that were in his eyes. She wasn't going to.
Skyla was intensely focusing on him, just like he was, and Ophelia could see a slight blush forming on her cheeks as she got closer.
WHAT?!
How did events change so abruptly in this direction? How did Skyla become his mate overnight and not her?
