As I drove back to Maple Dome, my body was frozen in school, disbelief and bafflement. I still couldn't believe the older man was my mate. Then what about the revelation I had that time I was in the hospital that Magnus was my true mate? Was it a mistake on our path, or was the Moon Goddess toying with me?
I didn't know what to believe anymore. Magnus behavior was suspicious these days. It was like he was an entirely different person. What was happening? How could the Moon Goddess pair me with an older man? If he were to be a human, I would have understood, but an old wolf?
At this point, I desperately wished it was all an illusion by Gaius and would soon snap out of it, but this felt real, too real. I knew it definitely wasn't an illusion created by the witches, but still, I couldn't come to terms with an older man who oddly felt familiar was my mate.
