Feeling braver than ever, I walk right up
to her. I gently remove the hand from her face and hold it to my own. “See, I’m
fine,” I whisper as I gently rub my thumb over her tiny knuckles.
Her eyes lift to mine and lock our gazes.
I have always found the golden color of her eyes fascinating but never studied
them up close. They are light brown with a golden star in the middle. I am
literally star gazing as she takes in the injuries to my face. We stand there
for about a minute, lost in time.
I wonder if she is thinking about when we
first started dating, the hard times that followed, the present, or the future.
I search her face for clues but don’t want to break the spell by opening my
mouth. I decide to put said mouth to better use by lowering my head toward
hers.
Destiny gives James Martin a second chance at love.
Aurora may prove to be more of a hazard to herself than the Sluagh ever were.
He has the daunting task of keeping her away from sharp objects, and from
ogling his best friend, Nate.
Nate Wagner is shocked when Aurora passes the
prophesized shifter smell test identifying her as his mate. The beta male
competes against the mature courtship skills of James with his own modern
twist.
However, will his devotion to James keep her out of
his arms or will they create their perfect family—one they never dreamed of?

“I have been advising everyone the surgery is what you needed. I knew what was best for you,” James says placing his hand on my shoulder. Something about the gesture makes me feel suffocated. I shrug his hand off and push Nate’s hands away.
“You don’t get to do that,” I say looking James in the eye. “This is my consequence for my actions.”
“Of course, we both will comfort you as you grieve—” Nate starts.
“You don’t get to do that either,” I say acidly. “Who said I needed to grieve? I will have to relearn a lot of tasks, but I want the challenge. I want to live. I want to live as a stronger version of myself. I want to be the girl who survived a month of torment to cut herself from the chains.”
“We are sorry it happened to you,” says Nate.
“Yes, we feel sorry on your behalf,” adds James.
“That’s the problem,” I thunder. “If you were listening, you would know I’m not sorry. You don’t have the right to be more upset, more offended, or more…more…anything, than me! You can’t take this away.”
