Denied by Destiny: Trapped in the Shadows of the Mate Bond

Bond 35



Chapter 0035 Kaia POV

My stomach was in complete knots.

What do I do...leave now but it is the middle of the night? I don't even know where Father is, I was waiting for the confirmed new sighting.

Panic was

s continuing to creep in on me, and the lack of sleep was doing things to my usually calm-under-stress mindset.

The house i is dead quiet, so much so that I hear the moment Hector walks back in and presses the ice dispenser on the fridge.

I won't wait for him to hand me over to Than to find out, I'd rather he told me to my face and gave me enough notice to prepare myself. Gave me the respect of at least looking into my eyes when he tells me. I head downstairs, where the ticking grandfather clock at the bottom of the staircase confirms the current time as 2.30am.

The solemn sight of the notorious Dark Phantom alpha isn't what I was expecting at all. A glass of whiskey in hand, he was half bent over the kitchen island work top, his free hand rubbing at his temple. "What are you doing up?" He turns when I enter the kitchen, the floor boards creaking under my steps.

"I couldn't sleep...who was that man?"

A large sigh escapes him as he stands up and turns completely to face me. His lower back resting against the kitchen unit, his legs crossed at the front.

A

How was it possible for him to own a room with only him and me in it.

If the situation wasn't so dire I'd reflect more internally on how handsome he looks, how he looks like a model in a whiskey campaign.

"He was the one that attacked Rosa."

So, he has traded me in.

"Where is he now?"This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

"In the cells..."

"What, and Than just gave him up to you?" He doesn't miss the sarcasm in my voice, his body straitening, no longer at ease as his eyes furrow at my unusual tone.

Well...yes."

I don't believe him, Than would have wanted something in return.

"I was going to follow you..."

"Well...I'm glad that you didn't."

+25 BO!

+25

Why am I I'm on

I here? I'm too involved...

the right hand side of Rosa, helping to hold her up with her mother on her left.

I could feel her legs were wobbly, like a newborn fawn, as I over compensate to take more of her weight.

I

This was the complete opposite of me distancing myself.

We were heading into the cells. Rosa had only now built up the courage to face him the afternoon after.

we

enter a cell I which is heavily guarded, even though the suspect is chained to a metal chair in the middle of the cell. Riley, Rosa's father, Hector and Ezra are already in the cell, their eyes zoned in on Rosa Her sobs start even from the sight of him; for two reasons. For how he looks, he's been beaten already, cuts adorn his face and bruising becoming more prominent by the minute. He can hardly keep one of his eyes open. The second reason, and this i is where I feel her pain... .she can feel some kind of energy between them. She's too young to feel the full gravitational pull of the mate bond, but she feels something. Albeit small. An innocent attraction on her part that he has completely taken advantage of. "Name?" Hector's voice is cold as he starts the proceedings of I'm assuming this male's trial. "Fuck you!" He spits out at Hector's shoes, blood in his saliva.

"Rosa...is this the male that attacked you yesterday morning?" Hector's amused eyes look down at his shoes, before looking back up and turning grey to a burnt orange. His alpha aura now swirling around the cell. "Yes...yes that's him." "Why did you attack her?" Hector continues to coldly ask, his eyes now looking deadly. "She's my mate, I only took what was mine."

He

e has no remorse whatsoever, not even knowing the true extent of his actions. Can he not see what he has done to this girl, how distraught she still is. feel I my inner hatred of this male tipping out of my mouth. I'm going past the point of not getting involved.

can

"She's too young to feel the mate

bond!" I roar out at him which gives the reverse désired effect from the male. He was smirking at me, he knew who I was. That was a member of his pack.

"It wouldn't have happened if you weren't here..." He looks at me with disgust, trying to pass the blame for what he did, but is cut off.

"Rosa, you will reject him and then, once he accepts your rejection and returns it...you will leave the cells. Do you understand?" Hector talks over the male who was trying to get a reaction out of me. Walking in front of me and blocking me from the male's hateful gaze. I have no doubt that if he was able to break free of the chains, he would attack me.

Why, what reason has he to hate me? They have what they want, their true Luna.
