"It's...concerning Shawn. I'm quite confused," he said and Selena looked at him, waiting for him to elaborate. "Confused about what?"
"About what I want. After Shamena died, I was afraid to love again. I just... I just didn't want to love again and honestly, I hoped in my heart that I would never find my mate. I had thought that if Shamena's death had hurt me to that extent, then what about my mate? Would I be able to endure the pain if something happened to him or her? I was so insecure and scared of getting hurt."
"So...you're meaning to say that you're afraid of getting hurt by Shawn?" she asked, and he shook his head at her. "No..not getting hurt by him. I can endure getting hurt by him, but what I can't endure is losing him. Just seeing him in this state is breaking me so much inside that I can't help but think what condition I would be in if his state was much worse than what he is in now," he clarified, and Selena's brow creased in confusion.
