Yes, so good. So good…
No!
I push harder this time, and to my surprise, I succeed at tossing Rogan to the side.He growls under his breath, and his eyes are on fire.
But I don’t care.I want the truth.
“Tell me, Rogan, and I want the fucking truth.Who are the demons fighting with?And why?”
He growls again, climbs on top of me and—
I push him away, amazed at my own strength.“No, damn it!I will not let you fuck me into submission.I may be your mate, Rogan, but I’m not some meek wolf female.I’m a vampire princess, and youwillanswer me.”

He doesn’t reply at first, and I’m ready to walk away.Seriously.I’ll walk away from this man who is my perfect match, my fate, my love…
I will.
I swear I will—
“I never wanted it to be this way,” he finally says, his voice low and remorseful.
“Are you in bed with my stepfather?”I ask.“With the demons?Because I need to know.If I’m forsaking my sister for my demon stepfather, I must know.”
“It’s not what you think.”Rogan threads his fingers through his long hair.It’s matted with grass and sweat.
“What is it, then?”
“I’m sworn to secrecy.”
I scoff.“Do I look like I care?If we’re truly the mates we both feel we are, there can be no secrets between us.I don’t want that.Do you?”
“No, princess.I don’t want that.”He shakes his head.“I didn’t ask for this any more than you did.”
“I believe you.I do.But the fact remains that you’re still fighting for your own team, and I’m not.Where’s the fairness in that?”
“There is no fairness in that,” he says.“It’s just the way it is.”
“I don’t accept it.If there truly is no choice for either of us, why aren’t we fighting formyside, Victor?Why don’t you fight with the vamps?”
“They won’t have me.”
“You can’t know that.”
“I do know that.Your side will never accept me, but my side will accept you because you’re only half vampire.”
“I’m not buying.You’re an alpha, and I’m your mate.Your side will accept me no matter what.”
“That’s not entirely true.Vamps and lycans are natural enemies.We always have been.If you were a pureblood vampire, you and I would be alone.”
I shake my head.“That doesn’t sound too bad from where I’m standing.I’d rather go off alone than fight alongside demons.I can’t do it, Rogan.I can’t.You don’t know how bad Richard treated Larissa and me.He hated us.Called us whores.Told us we were worthless pieces of ass.He was especially hard on me.He said if he and I were the last two beings in the universe, sentient life would die out.”
Rogan curls his hands into fists.“He saidthat?To you?His stepdaughter?”
“Yeah, he’s disgusting.Does he think I’d ever let him near me?”
“That’s not even the point,” Rogan says.“It’s repugnant that he would even think of you that way.”
