Helanie:
I had no words to speak after she told me about the mate bond. It was as if something so impossible had happened that I could not even react to it. I just watched her face, and then Emmet's.
What had happened? Why would the Moon Goddess pair me up with them, but then give them mates, and make another mate in a person that is so vile?
Or maybe she wasn't. The way she came to his defense, she really loved him. But that didn't mean she was a nice person, or did it?
She admitted that when she was dying, she cursed him out of anger and frustration and heartbreak. So what else was left?
I cannot call her a manipulator when she was just taking a stand for her mate. My heart broke at the thought of him having other mates. And I guess that is when I realized how they must have felt too when I did not want to be with one of them.
