Chapter One Hundred And Twenty

Shannon’s POV

My mouth hung in shock as I stared at Benjamin as he told me about his past. I had suspicions that he had been through a rough patch earlier in his life.

I could often see the sadness deep in his eyes when he thought no one was looking but I didn’t know he had been through so much more than I had thought.

He lost his parents and he was betrayed by an uncle who he had loved with his heart and a woman who was supposed to be his mate for all of eternity.

I didn’t know how he came out of all of this with his kindness intact, it didn’t make any sense to me if I were in his shoes, I would’ve built walls reaching for the sky to prevent anyone from ever coming close but he had welcomed me with open arms and treated me like one of his wolves for months, providing me with everything I ever needed, making sure I or my unborn pup never lacked anything.

I didn’t know many people who would do that for a stranger but I had doubted his true intentions for me because of my bad past.
