“Darius, I won’t be mad,” I linked him, resigning myself to my fate, and he squeezed my wrist. His hand was shaking. It was difficult for him to resist her. It would be so because they were once in love. The bond would amplify their buried emotion.
“You shouldn’t have come here, Shanon, you should have stayed away like my mother warned you to,” He said, and she began to weep.
“I still love you. I never got over you, Darius. I regret leaving and always dreamed of returning. but I was too afraid of what would happen if I did. Please, Darius. We are meant for each other. My heart still beats for you the same. Please. I did not leave you intentionally, I wasn’t given a choice, please. We can make this work. We are destined to be together,” She argued, and he shook his head.
“Let us talk about this in private without interference. Please.” She pleaded for privacy because she knew she could get the best of him that
way.
“Just you and I,” She said, and her eyes looked at his hand on my wrist There was a rage in them, but she hid it immediately
She was fighting to control herself. I could see it, and to her, I was an obstacle.
“Let us find a private place to talk things through, away from the crowd,” She pleaded, and I knew when she said crowd, she meant me
“Fate had put us together like we always wanted when we were younger,” She said with tears in her eyes.

“I make my own destiny, Shanon,” He said to her and looked at her
“I, Darius Hand…” he started, and I could not believe what he was about to do.
“Wait, do not do this. It will weaken our wolves. You are lord. Cremin can’t be weakened. I do not mind sharing you with her. It is a price I am willing to pay for letting them force me to leave you, but please don’t will do anything to be with you and remain yours. Please reconsider Shanon said, then looked at me with tears streaming down her cheeks By then, everyone was concentrating on us again. Casey’s diversion had ended.
“Don’t be selfish; stop him. It will be your fault if he does this, it weakens his wolf, and the north falls.” She said to me, and I wanted to punch her at that moment. How dare she put it on me?
“Shut up!” Darius told her, and everyone was silent. We were now the centre of attention.
“You are not to speak to my mate in that tone ever!” he warned her and continued his sentence.
“I. Darius Hand, reject you, Shanon Sullivan, as my fated mate now and forever. May fate find you another match,” He said, staggered, and sat
down.
She fell on her knees in pain, and I knew the deed had been done.
I watched Darius battle with his pain, and my tears finally fell, but instead of it falling from pain, they fell from relief.
Darius was indeed telling the truth when he made those promises.
I doubt I can ever pay him for the gift of love he gave me.
“Let us go, Darius. You need to rest,” I linked him, and he stood up,

leaving Shanon writhing in pain on the floor.
Darius was in severe pain, too, but he was masking it, which was why I needed to get him out of the hall so no one would see his pain.
People came to Shanon’s aid.
Darius and I left the hall together, and I realised that even though the architect of my misfortune tried to play the same situation twice, I was favoured this time.
Darius did not even leave room for conversation between himself and Shanon. It should have been more difficult for him because they had a
history.
Casey was indeed a weak man, and I was glad I ended up with Darius.
We got to our bedroom with much difficulty because of the pain Darius was experiencing.
Though he masked it through the hall, it became visible in our wing as his wolf groaned in pain.
It made me wonder why I felt no pain with Hardy
I quickly undressed and undressed him.
Then I held him in bed to sleep it off. He had just weakened his wolf tremendously for my sake. I had great respect for him
“I love you so much,” I said, even though I doubted he could hear me
I began to cry tears of relief.
“Thank you, Darius, for not breaking my heart,” I said, weeping.
I was afraid it would be like Casey.

I was ready to leave and run away.
“I love you so much. I promise to remain by your side. I promise to

balance your strength and do everything to make you happy. I love you so much.” I said and held on to him tightly.
Fate did not give him to me. We chose ourselves, and it was a great match of love, trust, determination and promise.
