Yorick:
Ever since I felt the mate bond with Mariana, I had been in shock.
I knew Mariana. We moved in the same social circles.
She was spoiled and pampered. Everyone called her beautiful, and she truly was.
Many people wanted her.
I had never imagined something like this.
Of course, I found her attractive. But I knew we could never be together.
We belonged to completely different communities.
Her father was controlling. Then her engagement to Messi had been arranged.
Before that, I had already fallen in love with Clementine.
When I kissed Mariana and felt the mate bond, it felt like everything had been planned.
My rejection by Clementine earlier suddenly made sense. It was as if the Moon Goddess had arranged it all.
Honestly, Mariana's closeness gave me comfort. At that moment, I was ready to do anything for her.
The way she cupped my face and searched my body for injuries with such concern made something shift inside me.
