“Today was our first anniversary. I stood outside in the freezing rain, holding a gift that cost me three months of savings, hoping to finally win a sliver of my mate's respect. But through the window, I heard his best friend laughing. "Damien, are you really going to keep that wolfless little thing in your bed forever? She's just a shield for Annelise." When Damien finally came out, he didn't even look at my gift. Instead, he handed it directly to Annelise to "warm her hands" while his friends smirked. That night, he tossed a rejection document on my table. "I, Damien Thornton, propose to reject you, Kira Hayes, as my mate." He offered a lump sum of cash to buy my dignity.
