Five years ago I found my mate… and he has no idea. I’ve spent my entire life doing two things: training to be a ballet dancer, and longing for a scent-match.

It’s been five years since I last saw him—happily in someone else’s arms—and I couldn’t bear to break his heart. But that was before. Before he joined my dance company, anger and grief in his eyes.

But the more time I spend with them, the more I see the future I always wanted. A love that sweeps me away, keeps me safe, and never lets me go. Every day, I fall deeper, and as I do, the more they see the truth: No matter how long it’s been, I never gave up on that dream. Knot for a moment. less
