River POV
"Jeremiah, you need to stand down now." "Fern is my mate and you need to accept that." "Nothing you say right now is going to change that fact." "How could you accept her after what she did to you?" "You don't know everything and I was stupid to believe Thomas and his father all those years ago." "I should have fought harder to speak to her then all of this could have been avoided." "Bullsh*t you know they never change." "They think that they are better than us since we are rogues or only a Beta." "Jeremiah not all mates are like Belinda." He growls "don't you ever say her name to me again." "I will not stay here and watch you be her sloppy seconds now that she is done with Thomas." I growl ready to beat the sh*t out of him for talking about me and my mate that way. Fern
