Old wounds ripped open and pain poured out of her soul. She glanced up and met Sage’s gaze. “I thought about it when I offered him something to eat and he shoved it away not caring where the food landed. I thought about it when I told him that once it was over, we could try to have a baby and he flat out told me he never wanted kids and I needed to let that go.

“Even though he knew damn well I’d been waiting for him to be ready to try for a baby. Yes, I thought about it and I felt selfish for it.” She sniffed. “I felt like scum for wanting to divorce a man going through cancer, but I didn’t do it.

“Instead, I fought with him. I helped in every way I could to beat a disease that was killing not just him, but us as a couple. And you know what I got for it? Not a damn thing.”

She wiped angry tears away with the back of her hand and guzzled her wine.

“I’m sorry, Zuri,” Sage said softly. “You’ve never told us anything and we didn’t know what to think.”

She shrugged. “It doesn’t matter. It’s been a year. We’re divorced. He’s happy. Last I heard, they were having a baby and I got a great settlement.”

“But you can’t get those ten years back.” Sage hit the nail on the head. That’s what hurt most. She’d spent ten years with a man who never truly loved her. He’d been so honest, he even had to tell her that. That he’d loved her as a friend and they’d had a good marriage, but he’d never been in love like he was with Monica.

“No. I can’t get those years back.” She refilled her wine and glanced at Sage. “What now?”

Sage grinned and raised her glass. “Now, you go out on a date with a shifter that thinks you’re his whole world and wants to give you all the babies your body can handle.”

“You don’t know that,” she laughed.

“Um, has he used protection at all?”

Her cheeks heated and she shook her head. “No.”

“Once they find their mate, they want a family, Zuri. It’s instant.”

“How do you know so much about them?” she asked, eyeing her sister carefully.

Sage shifted in her seat and glanced down at her glass. “I am curious.”

“Yeah. I have been, too. I don’t know, Sage. It seems too good to be true. I mean, the things he says. The way he touches me. Heck, even his looks do things to my body that are unnatural. I turn to a puddle with one word. It’s pathetic. I don’t want to lose myself again.”

“You won’t. That’s the beauty of this. I’m not going to tell you more. Just know that if he’s like the rest of them, all he wants is to do whatever he can to keep you happy. That means, you’re his only focus.” Sage grinned. “It should be fun to be a man’s center of attention for once and not have a needy man in a relationship.
