Cruel, vicious, stupid bastards, coming after his mate, thinking they could threaten his mate! They just couldn’t let him go, forget her and keep to their miserable lives in those damned mountains—no, they had to reach their fucking fingers all the way across the land to try and snatch his mate! Orek wouldn’t have it. They wouldn’t have her. Not his mate, his, she was his. Not my mate. Never my mate.
