Once Chay left the room Artem and I sat down to breakfast. I was still worried about what we had found out this morning. I didn't know what a mark meant nor why I had one. We both started eating our omelets, toast, and bacon but I couldn't stay silent. I needed to ask some questions.
"Artem?"
"Yeah?" He was still smiling even though it had been several minutes. He was obviously happy.
"What is a mark?"
"Oh, we haven't explained that part yet? I'm so sorry Star." He really did look like he was saddened by that fact. "A mark is also known as a mate mark. It shows other wolves and supernatural beings like us that you have a mate, that you are taken. In a sense it shows them all that you are not to be messed with. Plus it is a link between us. If you're in trouble I should know it because of the mark I placed on you."
"But, men don't usually get marks, right? That's what you said."
