Katelyn couldn't focus on her work the entire day. The thought of Sage being her mate stirred a strange sensation in her body, one she was desperate not to acknowledge.
'Why did it happen?' Katelyn thought, her mind restless. 'I have planned out an entirely different future for myself. Now, him being my mate will make everything worse.'
Her wolf, Silver, spoke softly in the back of her mind, her voice tinged with amusement, 'I already like him.'
'Are you serious?' Katelyn snapped inwardly, her thoughts sharp.
'Well, don't you like him? I mean… He has been good to you. Unlike Karmen, who always hurt both of us, Sage at least didn't do anything like that. Even we are so far, I can already feel the pull between me and Nyko.'
Silver's joy was unmistakable, spreading like warmth through Katelyn's chest, making her shiver involuntarily. She couldn't deny that recently she had felt drawn to Sage in ways she hadn't expected.
