CW: discussion of sexual assault (off-page), abduction, violence, death, pregnancy, suicide,
This was slightly different than the other rejected mate stories. Both Darragh and Mari had a lot of baggage that they had to work through that affected how they accepted and didn't accept the mate bond. I thought Mari's resistance to the mate bond after Darragh purposefully botched things was pretty impressive. I, also, thought her conflict about some of her feelings after they got back together ran true. I really appreciated her theory about Darragh's wolf, too.
