Chapter 41

Claire's POV

"I know that you really want her." I muttered. "Why was I putting myself and him through this? I started to feel like a stupid child.

"ENOUGH!" Hunter yelled, "You are my fucking mate, not her, and for the last time, I don't want her, I want you!" He told me, or more like yelled at me, something, which made me stop and look at him, and then something happened.

The wall I'd built to keep him and everything else out fell down. I could see the truth, the want, and the need in his eyes.

I finally realized that I was his mate and that I did want and need him. But I was going to make him pay for what he did the other night because, well, I'm a spoiled brat who likes to make him mad.

I finally got my hands out of his belt, and as soon as I did, I hit him again. Hunter turned his head to the side and slowly looked back at me. Then he grabbed the back of my neck and kissed me hard and deeply.

I kissed him back with the same force and passion.<
