BASTIAN’s POV.

I have been waiting for her but even after a few hours, she still isn’t back yet. Did she get into trouble somewhere? Did something happen? I don’t even know what to think anymore. I know Adele can take care of herself but I just can’t rest assured when she isn’t close to me. A lot of people want her dead and I want to keep her safe, even from myself.

Letting out a sigh, I make my way out of the room but I come across Imogene and another cadet. From the look on both faces, it seems something is definitely wrong somewhere.

“What’s going on?” I ask them, “why do the two of you look like this?”

“Adele was arrested” Imogene blurts out, “the queen took her at the gate”

“Why? What happened?”

“We do not know, she just took her”

I ball my hands into a fist, Desdemona!! How dare she? We talked about this, how dare she still try to harm Adele when I have warned her time without number.

Without saying anything, I hasten down the hallway to her room. I don’t bother to knock and jus

I haven’t seen him in three fucking months even though Ivar tells me he is fine. The last I heard of him was when Ivar took him and since then he has refused to see me. He could hate me for what I did but I have done it. I killed his father and the woman he loved…Desdemona and now the dead body of Bastian is in front of me.

    ADELE’s POV.A scream tears from my throat when I see the sword protruding out of Cahir’s chest and the person behind him…Bastian.I open my mouth to say something but no words come out, only tears and pain. I saved this bastard and he goes behind me to do this? I saved his love with my powers and he didn’t even flinch for one moment as he hurt him? He didn’t even… Cahir falls towards me, both of us landing on the ground. Blood pools out of his mouth and his eyes become red like he has been crying all his life.“Cahir!” His name rolls out of my lips, “I won’t let anything happen to you”He gently cups my face, love and fear pouring out of his eyes. Fuck, I can’t see him this way. I can’t see him hurting this way while the man in front of me has a sleazy smile on his face.“This is it, Adele” Bastian says, his voice coated with sarcasm and mockery, “Will this make you come back to me now?”“You need to leave” Cahir’s voice rings in my ear, his eyes pleading, “you need to get out of her

  • Bonded to the ruthless General   CHAPTER HUNDRED AND TWENTY.

    CAHIR’s POV.King Taurus is standing with his army as I approach them. Something is definitely happening here today, he won’t let Adele leave this place alive. The look on his face says it all, he wants to have her head but I would rather die than let anything happen to my wife and my child. This prophecy, it should be damned.“That was a foolhardy thing to do, son” his voice floats across to me, “you know that, don’t you?”“What do you think you are doing?” I ask him, my sword resting beside me, “you are going to put everyone's life in danger just for a son who killed people?”“I am trying to protect the kingdom that has been standing for years, Cahir” he half yells, “the kingdom your ancestors built, you bring a wows in and she wants to destroy it. Do you think I will let that happen? Hand her over to me and I will let you go”“Are you threatening me?” My eyes darken. This man, until the very end he isn’t even remorseful about what he did. My mother died and he never apologized for

  • Bonded to the ruthless General   CHAPTER HUNDRED AND NINETEEN

    ADELE’s POV.Despite the clash of swords in the air, I still refuse to give up on Bastian. I am not like him, I will not kill someone without any kind of conscience. I am going to save him then watch him suffer for it. He killed my father without batting an eyelid but here I am, trying to save his poor and wretched soul.“Just leave!” His voice comes out in a whisper, “or you might be killed”“Shut the fuck up!” I half yell, “another word and I will have my dagger buried deep inside of you again”He scoffs, blood staining his teeth. How did we get here? How did Bastian become the villain in my story? He has always been the villain, I just didn’t notice it. I refuse to believe that he would do anything like that despite all the signs being in front of me. I knew it in the back of my mind that he was not a good person but then again, he was always there for me.“You hate me, Adele” he forces himself to say again, “and now you want to save me after what I did?”“Death is too easy for yo

  • Bonded to the ruthless General   CHAPTER HUNDRED AND EIGHTEEN

    ADELE’s POV.I don’t bother turning around as he walks up to me, I already know who it is. The nerve of him to show up in front of me after what he did. If I were him, I would continue to hide in the cave where no one would be able to find me or even hear from me for the rest of their lives but this bastard actually had the guts to show up in front of me. Isn’t he scared of what I would do to him?“Can we talk?” He asks me, his voice bland and devoid of any kind of emotion, “please”“You sure have some nerves coming in front of me, Bastian” I grit in anger, “aren’t you scared of what I would do to you?”“Your father never minded his business” he blurts out and my jaw drops. In as much as everything, I never expected him to say something like that. My father never minded his business? I would never have believed that Bastian would say something like that ever. Someone I trusted and called my friend. Looking at him, I only feel disgust and hatred towards him.“If only he kept his mouth

    BASTIAN’s POV.I keep pacing up and down the room. My father’s gaze is on me but that is the least of my problems right now. I am more worried about what Adele and Cahir would do. He made up his mind to ruin me and I know he won’t stop until he ruins me. How did I get to this point? How did I make such a mistake? I have known Cahir all my life, I know he won't forgive me for what I did but I am not going to wait around for him to come and punish me. There is no need for me to pretend anymore, I have been caught and now I am going to do everything and anything to save my neck.“Can you stop pacing around?” King Taurus’s voice halts me, “you are going to give me a headache if you keep walking around like that”I finally stop walking before turning my attention to him, this time my eyes darken at the sight of him. He is not to be trusted too, he has known for a while but he didn’t bother to say anything about it.“Why didn’t you say anything for so long?” I finally ask him, “if you knew
