Fury pounds through my system every time I think of the wolf who impregnated Emerson. He dishonored her. They hadn't mated. That much Aline was correct about. Even if the shifter was dead, his scent would still cling to her if they'd bonded. At least, until a stronger alpha made his claim. My mind can't help but remind me of that fact. All of it is irrelevant, because the wolf never claimed Emerson at all.
