Since Cairo and Moonlight were there because of him, as his mother had said, he decided to clear things up between them. He caught up to Cairo and blocked his path.
"She chose you over me, remember?"
Cairo pursed his lips, his eyes red with pain. "She did, but she was never able to get over you."
In other words, he had Moonlight and the mate bond, but not her heart. Denver was confused at this point. "What do you mean by that?"
"Have you seen any mark on her neck? She's still in love with you," Cairo said directly. Denver knew it wasn't the kind of love Cairo thought it was, but how could he make him understand?
"You are her mate, and I found mine. I'll talk to her, but don't make this even more difficult by being upset with her. I will talk to my mate first."
Hearing about Denver's mate calmed Cairo deeply, causing him to have a change of mind.
