Cain
The wind brushed past us, howling loudly as we zoomed off without a care.
We weren’t called the fetal rogues just for formalities sake.
No—this is what we do, what we live for, the freedom, the thrill, the feeling of nature crying loudly while we sped past the empty roads.
I couldn’t help thinking back to Aria, and not to mention the fact that Kale wouldn’t stop snickering smugly about how proud he was of her.
“She stood up to you, she’s perfect.” He chucked, voice dripping with excitement.
“It talks” I sneered, “That’s seven words in a row kale, thought you fancied your solitude.” I scoffed.
He wagged his tail happily “I fancy my mate more”
”Hence why you’ve become talkative I presume, well, doesn’t matter, shut the hell up or I won’t mind shutting you out” Our relationship had gone downhill ever since Elena died, the bastard disappeared and would only surface to fight or cause trouble.
I still resented him for that, he was in pain?
Well newsflash, so was I?
“Fuck off asshole.” He cursed.
“Oh please, you’re literally inside me, I should be the one telling you off.” I shot back.
“Well, we’re stuck with each other, so deal with it.”
”After so many years, you’re willing to speak so much and even argue with me for a woman.”
”My mate,” he growled.
“She’s a child.”
”She’s mine.” He insisted stubbornly.
Was this a punishment from the goddess?
For our failure to protect our fated mate?” I wondered tiredly.
“Who knows” he shrugged casually, but his tone suggested that he couldn’t care less.
“This bond has to go, and I’ll find a way to end it, you can’t waltz back into my life after disappearing on me when I needed you the most kale.
If this bond is what you needed to appear once more, then I neither need you nor it.” I stated plainly.
I’m done letting the goddess choose my fate, I will be carving one for myself, she might as well go to hell.
Kale rumbled from within, literally vibrating, guilt flashed in his pupils but it was quickly drowned in rage, “You dare.”
”Doubt it?”
”I’ll kill us.
I promise you that, end this bond and I’ll ruin everything you hold dear, you pride yourself on control never losing it, not even one.
Touch the bond and see the damage I’d wreck without her.”
After saying that he turned away pulling up the mental walk and retreating to the deepest part of my mind.
Sigh.
I stomped the speed gear harder, going even faster, I just needed to get away from all of it.
The raw anger I felt earlier, an emotion that wasn’t mine, the joy, excitement, all of it, crashing into me one after the other.
And I knew exactly who they belonged to, I had never threatened my people, not once.
But today, all because of a kid.
A kid I carried while she was little, today I almost lost control when she tried to ride with bones. Read this novel at g.com for the best experience.
Just the thought of her having another man’s scent on her, mixing with the lilac on her, had bullets shooting through me.
Something is seriously wrong with me, and deep down I couldn’t help thinking, the faster I got rid of my troubles, the easier my life would get.
Luckily Mika stepped up, or….
My grip tightened even more, I had to end this, all of it, before it became a mountain I couldn’t pass.
‘Bones’ I mind linked
’Boss’ he called back.
‘How’s she now?
The toxin?”
”Alpha, why not let her see how much you care?
You spent the last few nights taking care of her, only leaving before day break.
If she knows then she wouldn’t be so angry thinking you don’t care about her.”
”Shut up and answer the question.”
Sigh.
“I really don’t understand what you’re thinking, this could be a great opportunity to win over our Luna for the pack.”
”Keep talking and you never know which sentence might be your last.”
That shut him up, “Sorry Alpha, Miss Aria’s situation needs treatment to start today.”
”And you never thought to mention it?”
”Well, I knew it could come up anytime I just wasn’t too sure, but now I am.
I will start the detox process today.”
”Alright,” I nodded.
I opened the general mind link and dropped three words.
“Set up camp”
The evening sun was already setting, it was time for us to gather once more.
“I’ll be back.” I mumbled to mika,
”Stay safe,” She waved.
