Being cautious is how they must proceed.Furgo had been poleaxed the moment he'd seen Marion standing inside a rehab center, waiting to be escorted to her new home. He knew, the moment he saw her that she was his bond mate. The fact that she didn't experience the bond like he did was troubling. He couldn't protect himself if she didn't want him in the same way he wanted her. Forever.Marion had an important life back on Earth. She believed in things she could objectively observe and touch. The bond mate thing sounded too much like some scheme to her for her to trust it.
