Chapter 25 : Treacherous Mate

*Craig*

I hated being told what to do. I was no one’s servant, but I knew that being here, I needed to know to play smart and not bite back too much.

Dawn's birthday was in a few months and then I would know for sure—but the crisis at hand was Jason. He wanted her but it would be over my dead body that he got to her. She was mine.

“You need to keep your head, you idiot,” Jared scolded me.

I growled. “Don’t call me an idiot.”

“I will call you an idiot as long as you act like one and you are currently acting like the biggest idiot of them all. Why are you going to ruffle Edgar’s feathers when you are on your own there?”

“I wasn’t ruffling anyone’s feathers. He is the one who came at me first.”

My best friend sighed on the other side of the line. “Listen to me. I get that you feel that she is your mate, but you—”

“I know that she is my mate,” I snarled.

“But you can’t be certain,” he finished.

“Well I am. I feel it. I know it.”
