A Bond Not Meant To Be Chapter 99
The council convened once again for their routine sitting. As always, the members were gathered around the long desk, each in their designated place.Mitch Jones sat in the chair before them. His back was straight, his expression calm, but inside his chest his heart beat like a war drum. He had walked in knowing this would not be an ordinary hearing. He had written the letter himself, knowing the storm it would bring.Lord Arthur, the leader of the council, cleared his throat. His white beard shook as he adjusted the scroll in his hand. His voice was sharp and strong as he began.“Council members,” Arthur said, “we have gathered to address the matter brought forward by High Councilor Mitch Jones. His letter has been received and read. I shall now summarize.”Edward Jones leaned back in his seat among the council members. He folded his arms across his chest, his lips twitching with a smile he tried to hide. His cousin Mitch was about to grant his desire. Edward could already picture

At the close of work, Lucille leaned back in her chair, her mind circling again to the letter she had seen on Edward’s phone. She had tried not to react, but it tore her into shreds.After all the promises Mitch had made, after all the hope he’d given her, was he really going to break the bond? Her eyes welled, she blinked hard, but the tears spilled anyway.Her hand rose to her neck, brushing the place where his mark sat. The familiar warmth of it only made the ache sharper, and more tears streamed down her cheeks.Why couldn’t Mitch have been just an ordinary man, even an omega? Why did he have to be an alpha, and worse, Edward’s cousin?Quickly, she wiped her face, gathered her things, and left the office.The moment she stepped into the reception, her expression darkened. Edward was there, sitting casually.When he saw her, he smiled and rose swiftly to his feet. “Done?” he asked softly.Lucille gave him a steady look, then glanced around. The last thing she wanted was to draw att

When they finally reached the city and the hotel, the night was already far spent.The car hadn’t even stopped fully before Mitch opened the door, stepped down, and gently lifted Lucille into his arms. She was too deep in sleep to notice, her head resting softly against his shoulder.The driver followed behind them with their knapsacks. Inside the hotel room, he dropped the bags on the table and quietly left. Mitch laid her carefully on the sofa. She stirred a little, muttered something unclear, then turned and sank back into sleep.He quickly pulled off his cloak and damp boots, wrapping himself in a bathing robe before preparing a warm bath. Returning to the room, he slipped off Lucille’s cloak, boots, and inner wear with gentle care, then carried her into the bathroom.The moment he lowered her into the steaming water, her eyes shot open. She frowned, blinking at her surroundings in confusion.“We’re back,” Mitch whispered softly as he eased himself into the tub beside her.She

A man stood before him, silent as a shadow, dreadful as a storm. His hair was twisted into long locks that hung around his face. He was not old, not young, but his presence was timeless, like he had lived through ages. On his shoulder sat the creature from before, the monkey-like being with human eyes, staring at them with eerie stillness.But it was the man’s eyes that froze Mitch’s blood. They burned red, glowing like embers in the night, staring with raw hatred.Mitch’s chest clenched. His heartbeat thundered painfully. Every instinct screamed danger. His wolf bristled inside, crouching low, unwilling to challenge this being.Slowly, with trembling hands, Mitch tapped Lucille.She stirred, then opened her eyes, only to scream when she saw the man before them. Her body jolted, pressing close to Mitch, terror flooding her face.The man did not flinch. He only stood there, his gaze locked on them, cold and merciless.Mitch swallowed hard, forcing words out past the tightness in his

Hours later, they reached the creek, just as Pa Wilcox had said.At first sight, Lucille froze. The water was wide, rushing with a force that roared in her ears. The current was fierce, crashing against sharp rocks that jutted up like hungry teeth. Fallen tree branches floated by, spinning helplessly before being dragged under. The spray of water reached them even before they stepped close.Lucille’s throat went dry. “Mitch…” she whispered. “This looks… deadly.”Mitch’s eyes narrowed as he studied the flow. He had fought elites, faced councils, even stood in battlefields, but this creek made his gut twist. The water was alive, dangerous, almost daring them to step in.Lucille’s wolf whimpered inside her, pulling back. Her palms were clammy. What if the current take them? What if they never come out?“We can go back,” Lucille said quickly, her voice shaky. “Maybe there’s another way.”“No,” Mitch replied firmly. “Pa Wilcox was clear. The creek is the only passage.”“But… what if it’s

Lucille nodded quickly. “He’s in the sitting room. He wants to see you.”Louis blinked hard, as if he had misheard. “The High Councilor?”“Yes,” Lucille said firmly. Then she added, almost in a whisper, “My mate.”Louis’s throat tightened. “He… he wants to see me?” His voice trembled with disbelief and panic.“Yes. He wants to meet my brother,” she repeated.Louis shook his head in shock, his voice rising in protest. “And you didn’t tell me you were coming with him?”“It just happened,” Lucille replied impatiently, tugging at his arm toward the door. She couldn’t risk him asking too many questions. She would never mention Pa Wilcox or the Tribunal.“You should have at least texted me,” Louis muttered, refusing to budge. How could she just walk into the house with such a powerful man without warning? He would have prepared himself, braced for it.“And Mom?” he asked nervously.“She saw him already,” Lucille said quickly. “But I told her he’s your friend.”“What—how did he become my—”
