“I know we just met, and it sounds absurd, but there’s just something about you, Val. There’s just something that makes me want to be with you, to protect you, to treat you as you should be treated.”
I swallowed hard, unsure of what to say. His words were so sudden and unexpected “But…but…don’t you have a mate?” I asked with my eyes wide in shock.
He shook his head, and leaned back with slightly sad eyes. “Three years ago, she cheated on me, and I rejected her. Since then, I have been without a Luna.” He said with a sigh.
I gasped softly. “I’m so sorry. I didn’t know.”
He gave me a small smile and leaned forward. “Val, leave him. He doesn’t deserve you,” he said, “Come to my pack. Be my Luna. I promise you Valeria, I’ll make you happy. I’ll love you with everything that I have.” He swore, his eyes burning with so much sincerity.
My breath caught in my throat. The way he looked at me like I was the only thing that mattered. However, I wasn’t ready to make that sort of decision. I politely declined Dante’s proposal and excused myself. He had barely managed to give me his contact before I ran off.
