~{INGRID'S POV}~

"So would you like to give it a shot with me…. until you find your mate?"
The word perplex couldn't cover what I felt at that moment as we stared at each other.
Give it a shot with him?
"Did Joseph put you up to this?" I blurted out the first thing that came to mind.
"Not at all. Joseph just asked me to keep you company but as I got to see you closely, I changed my mind," he explained.
"Will that be possible?"
"Yes."
"Don't you feel torn that your mate is with someone else?" I curiously asked because if I were in his shoes, I didn't know how I would feel.
"For five years, I cried and beat myself hard. I felt like dying and it was the worst experience to choose the pack over her but the worst part was that she loved the man she was married to."
Now that was terrible.
"Five years?"
"Yes, I found her five years ago." He elaborated.
"Whoa…. that's just…. cruel."
