Colton's POV
"I am cursed."
The words broke me, and I suddenly felt powerless to do anything.
L thrashed violently within me.
'Who dares call her cursed?' he roared. 'She is ours. She is our mate. Tear them apart!'
I clenched my fist tightly and then took a step forward. Tears streamed down her face and she kept muttering something about being cursed.
"Stop!" I growled. "Stop saying that! Do not ever say that!"
The other woman was talking, but I wasn't listening. The only person I thought about was her. I only saw her.
The scarf she had used to cover the back of her neck slipped further down, and that glowing mark faded. The witch had called it a cursed symbol, but all I saw was my mate—scared and broken—and that broke my heart.
"Alpha.." someone touched my arm, and I saw that it was Rosaline.
"You!" I growled, narrowing my eyes at her. "How dare you!"
I stalked towards her, wrapping my hand around her throat.
"Alpha," Axel called, and I pulled my hand away.
