Chapter 148 Gideon

• This has got to be the strangest thing I have ever encountered in all of my existence. I lost my life because of my involvement with Dakarai. I lost Alvaro because of his loyalty to his queen, Luis through depression by his own hand, and Phinneas through tragedy. Now after 231 years of loss, Hecate or maybe Selene wants to send me a mate? Someone who believes wolves are the enemy? Whatever god or goddess is at work here has a warped sense of humor.
• I won’t deny that he is handsome, but it will take more than a handsome face to convince me to keep him as my mate. Yes I feel a pull to Eilif, the bond, but it isn’t like the wolf mate bond where every fiber of your being wants the person and only that person. Vampires are solitary creatures by nature and mate bonds are rare. I will just have to be cautious while I figure out whether to accept him or not. I am grateful that Alpha Kieran invited him to come and get to know us all, he really didn't have to allow that.
• Well I suppose he might as well get a first hand view of my family so I turn to Nikki, “Race you back to the mansion?” She laughed then shifted and was off like a rocket with Frankie right on her heels.
