“Then why did you stay with me? Why not break up with me and be with him?” Brady asked, the pain
evident in his voice.
“BECAUSE I STILL LOVED YOU! I NEVER LOVED ANDREW! I LOVED YOU!” Evelyn whisper-yelled. “Andrew
begged me to spend my 20th birthday with him in Canada, because he wanted us to be together when I could first identify my
mate, But I insisted on being at Black Moon because a small part of me hoped that
you would be my mate and not him.

And then you were. And I was so happy. But you were not. Instead, you panicked. I wanted you to

take care of our son!”
Evelyn suddenly jumped out of her chair, extended a claw, and went for my neck.
“STOP, EVELYN!” James yelled.
