Cupcake (Unlocked Mates #8)

Logan

Being kicked out of my pride, I wandered around the country until Axel found my malnourished lion side and invited me into his home. I’ve found family, brotherhood, and happiness here. Now as paramormals are starting to find mates once more, it’s been amazing to see my brothers find their perfect matches.

I want a mate too! So badly. I’m trying to be patient but there’s a man in town that has captured my attention. I don’t want to betray my future mate, if I even get one, but Dean is as yummy as the treats he makes.

Even though everyone tells me how gorgeous I am, I know that attractiveness is only skin-deep, and I’m not sure I could keep a man like Dean anyway. He probably wouldn't like me in my pretty lace and silk. It’s better to just keep to myself…until secrets are revealed and I realize there’s a reason I’m so drawn to Dean. After learning that Dean doesn’t want me as a mate, I do what I do best—I run away. I might be a fierce lion shifter but I’m not a brave boy.

Dean

I messed up and I know it. First, I hid my scent from the other paranormal family in town. Second, once I realized Logan was my mate, I didn’t tell him. Lastly, I disappeared for months without a word to track down my old coven. I did it to protect my mate and his family, but Logan doesn’t know that.

Now that I’m back I want to make amends. How can I get my sweet mate to forgive me? I know I need to tell him the truth. No matter how bad it makes me look.
