Fella strokes her fingers through it and I groan, loving her hands on me in any way. 

Not as much as the pissed me off.” Felix says. “She kept calling me a whore, that was about it.”

I leap to my feet and pull her toward me. “It’s not the way that it sounds, but yeah. It’s true, I never wanted to find my mate. But I didn’t

But the moment I stepped onto your floor at the hospital, I scented you and as much as I always said I never wanted to find you, no one could have stopped me from walking into
