DaneShe scowls at me. “Is that…. Is that even a possibility?””Right now, it seems like anything is.””Because I’m a monster?””You need to stop calling yourself that.”She rolls on her back, staring up at the ceiling. Sighing, she rests her hands on her flat stomach.”They will all react like that.” She mumbles, puffing out her cheeks. “You…you are the only one that doesn’t seem……””I’m not bothered by what you are. All I care about is that you are mine and why are you still insisting on wearing clothes to bed?” I pull her in against me. She lets out a little gasp as my hand goes up under her oversized tshirt and grazes her lower back. Unexpectedly, she pushes me away.”I can’t.” she whispers and tugs the tshirt back down over her hips.She was fighting hard to try and not think of something. Trying to keep her mind clear so I wouldn’t know what the problem is.Pinning her to the bed, I drop my weight on top of her. “What’s wrong?””You’re….crushing my…..lungs.”I ease my weight off of her just a little. But not enough that she can escape from under me.”Are you still feeling a little tender?”She closes her eyes.”And you are embarrassed?” I drive a leg between hers, forcing her thighs apart.Her head shakes a tiny bit, “Uncomfortable.” she whispersKissing the mark on her neck, I tell her I will let her be, just for tonight. Only then, does she relax. She drops off to sleep before I do, curled up into my side.’We need to stop Trey and Cassandra.’ Aero mumbles. ‘They almost caused a war in the neutral zone.”I know.”We both know there are others out there that are desperate to knock us down a peg or two.”I know.’ I mutter again, running my fingers through my mates dark hair. ‘You know how angry I’ve been, Aero. I wish we had been there or that she had never gone. But I can’t change what has happened. I can only make sure something like that never happens again.’ Looking down at Neah, her eyelashes fluttered on her cheeks as she slept peacefully. Seemingly unaware of the anger that was growing inside of me.’I need to run.’ I mumble to Aero, slipping myself out from Neah’s grasp. sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ FindNøvᴇl.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.’I think we should speak to Devon again.’ He tells me’He didn’t know that Neah was going into the city.”No, maybe he can give us a better understanding of what they might be planning now. Or maybe he will at least be able to predict their plan.’Pulling on a pair of shorts, I make my way through the house and out into the falling snow. The cold beneath my bare feet offered some relief from the constant warmth of my body. Walking through the snow to the dungeon, I see a guard, leaning against the door, bored out of his mind. “Any problems?” I ask”No, keeps himself to himself.” The guard mumbles, stepping aside to let me through the door.The guard closes the door behind me as soon as I turn on the lights.”Really, it’s the middle of the night?” Devon mutters. He apologises when he sees me. “I’m not the greatest when I haven’t had sleep. What can I do for you Alpha Dane?” He stretches out his limbs and yawns. “Neah.” I mutter”You are going to need to give me a little bit more information than that.” He rubs his eyes.”You keep talking about Neah, being this Alpha.””She is.””Right. What is she capable of?””No one knows for certain. I’ve tried researching, but the most I came across is how someone in her position will be of great power. They just need to know how to tap into it.” “Are you talking magic? Like a Witch.””Honestly Alpha Dane. I don’t know. I just know that she will be able to get us back to our rightful status in the world.””And that’s why they fear her?”
