Don't let anyone know I'm your mate, I'd told Caine with all the confidence of a girl whose borne countless hours of bullying in this pack.
Past Grace is Stupid. Capital S and all.
Granted, I had no idea Ellie would jump from basic bullying to attempted murder, but whatever—I should have known it was a possibility when her fated mate was sneaking around behind her back to try and keep me as his little side piece lover.
Wolves don't play when it comes to their mates, and a girl like Ellie has too much pride to ever lose to a human like me.
At least if Caine had stayed with me, she wouldn't have had the balls to grab me as soon as I ran off on my own.
Then again, she's clearly lacking any intelligence or rationality whatsoever, so who knows. Maybe it would have made it all worse.
I mean, she even thinks I've been talking to her father!
Hopefully he's the cause behind all her bruises. She clearly needs a stronger hand in parenting.
