Chapter 16. I Need Your Help

Tish’s POV

Mae has the night off, but I have to work. I don’t feel comfortable leaving her alone at the apartment after everything that has happened. Honestly, I am afraid I will come home, and she is gone. I have heard how strong the mate bond between werewolves can be.

Mae is the only person I have in my life. I lost my parents when I was young and bounced from foster home to foster home, never finding a place to settle down. It wasn’t until I met Mae in nursing school that I finally felt like I had found my home. While the other students judged me for my lack of designer clothes. Mae took me under her wing. She helped me with my studies and introduced me to her family.

Mae was the angel I needed in my life, and now I risk losing her because some supernatural character comes into our lives claiming to be her mate.
