Chapter 15

Xander

It’s going to be Chassy’s 19th birthday tomorrow. It's been a year since she found out that she’s my mate, and I can still remember how she looked when she saw me. I asked her to be in my bedroom so she would know that I was hers. She doesn’t normally go around the pack house because I forbid her from doing so. She only needs to work in the kitchen and the backyard, the places where I don’t go.

Yes, I didn’t want to smell her scent because I was sure that I was going to go crazy. Imagine years of knowing she’s mine, but I can’t even touch her. It’s killing me, but I constantly reminded myself that she was still young, and I thought that it would not help if I told everyone about that.

I was on the training ground when I suddenly felt a pain in my chest, and I almost made myself go down on my knees. “Alpha, what’s wrong?” My beta Limuel asked,

“It’s —” I couldn't tell him; I didn’t want to admit that Chassy had already found someone.
