Bonded to the ruthless General CHAPTER THIRTEEN
CAHIR’s POV. The very moment she stepped into the barracks, I knew she was the one. The daughter of the treacherous MacAlister who almost put the whole country into turmoil and danger, she had guts, she didn’t have a filter over her mouth and mumbled whatever she wanted and that red hair of hers would make her prone to the enemy's attack. But then despite the instant hate I developed for her the moment I saw her, I had to marry her, she had to become my wed bride and I am still very much upset about it. I didn’t spend years and years of my life cultivating immense power to get wed to someone who can’t even use a sword. The more I think about it, the more upset I become. I remember that night when ivar, my dragon, spoke to me about her and I almost went berserk. “You must be joking” I tell him, “and you know it” “Well, we both know you have to do it” he snickers, “take her as your bride and build her through the journey. General, you clearly do not have a choice now, do you?”

ADELE’s POV. After he leaves, I just can’t get the thought of the kiss out of my head. He hates me, I didn’t expect him to kiss me and even smirk about it. That man is more sly than I actually thought, he actually kissed and looked like he enjoyed it. “Pathetic” I mutter under my breath, His reputation is just bad overall. I look out of the window hoping to catch a glimpse of whatever Is happening outside but nothing. It feels like he purposely chose this room for me so I won’t be able to see anything. The door creaks open and a man saunters in followed by one of the soldiers. “He is here to check on your wounds” she says before making her way out. I think I remember this man, he looks vaguely familiar but I can’t fathom where I have seen him. Could be back in Drakesworth. “Macalister” he calls out and the frown on my face intensifies, how did he know?” “How do you know my name?” I manage to ask him, walking back to the amazingly soft bed, “I have a feeling that I have se

ADELE’s POV. Cahir doesn’t even let me say anything and pulls me away from the battlefield. Bastian tries to stop him but he on the other hand is wounded so there is only little he can do before Cahir drags me off. He didn’t stop until we get to the front of his fort and that’s where I manage to snap my hand out of his. “What do you think you are doing?” I ask him. “Who told you that you could come out of the fort?” “Its none of your business, general” I snap and he clenches his jaw together. “You can’t just tell me to do something and I will do it, I am not your slave” “As long as you are married to me, you will do as I have said” hr half yells, “do you understand that” “And on what basis are you calling me your wife?” A slight pain from my shoulder makes me wince in frustration. “You can not call me your wife when we do not have any relationship, general. You never gave me a reason why you got married to me in the first place. I did not come here for you, I came h

ADELE. It has been one hell of a hectic day but luckily the Chimeras and their hosts were destroyed and just a few of our people were injured. Most of them were taken to the infirmary while the rest were asked to retire back to their hostel for some rest. Everything else for today has been cancelled but that doesn't mean I can’t ask questions. That’s why after leaving Bastain at the infirmary, I make my way towards the tent the general has confronted me with before. I saw him going there with his sister and some of the supervisors. Despite the intensity of the fight, none of them looked hurt. How I wish I am able to wield such powers as them but yet again, my shoulders still hurt. Just as I get close to the tent, I stop myself just before I can go further. “You can not go in” one of them tells me, “the general gave strict orders” “I need to see him” “And on what basis do you think you can see him?” He inquires again, loath evident from his voice. “Come in” I hear someone

CAHIR’s POV. Standing on top of the armory, my gaze is on the frail Adele training so hard In the courtyard. It is already past bedtime but she is the stubborn one, still training despite everything that has happened. Four days ago, I arrested Bastian because of her and she actually had the guts to come and meet me, demanding to have him released. She has got guts, I must say. “You are still here?” A voice asks behind me and I turn to see Xena walking towards me, her gaze on Adele, “it seems you can not leave your wife alone even for a moment, general” “Why? Are you waiting for me to leave so you can end her?” I ask and she chuckles lightly. “Killing her is much more easier than eating, Cahir and you know that” “You know you wouldn’t dare” “Why are you so hellbent on protecting her though?” She asked me after a while, “you haven’t told me the overall truth as to why you decided to marry someone who can’t even wield a sword? You are not one to do something without gettin

ADELE’s POV. As soon as his hand wraps around my waist, I feel a kind of sensation surge through my body. It feels exactly the same when Bastain is close to me. Why exactly is my body feeling that way? I shouldn’t be feeling that way, right ? I shouldn’t even be bothered by him. He says he wants to teach me, I should focus on that and learn. “Clear your mind” he whispers into my ear again and I swallow hard.His hand is gripping mine a little tightly as we both navigate the sword through the air. “Become one with your sword and no one will be able to defeat you..” we continue to swing and roll, making use of all the available space. “This is called the combination and sequence” he says into my ear again. Slowly his hand slides down to my hips and I hitch, halting in the process. “Can you teach me without touching me?” I ask him, my chest rising and falling in quick succession. I know it sounds absurd but I do not like the way his body is reacting to him. It’s like there is a

BASTIAN’s POV. Seeing her walk away, I let out a heavy sigh. I didn’t expect her to react that way but I have known for the longest time that she has feelings for me. Adeline doesn’t bother to hide the way she drools over me so why didn’t she accept me? It can only be one thing, because of Cahir. I am going to make sure I keep her safe from a maniac like him, I will protect her from him no matter what. Looking back at her retreating figure, I can’t help but smile. Adeline, as I fondly call her, is the most hardworking girl I know, she makes sure nothing stops her right from when we were kids and up till now, she still has that spirit. I hear a rustling sound behind me and I turn around to see Xena perching on a branch of a tree, her attention on me and she looks amused. “Shouldn’t you be in the dining room, cadet?” She asks me, jumping down from the tree. “Are you following me?” She scoffs, pulling her hair into a messy bun, “I can get you punished for ditching your meal bu

ADELE’s POV. Groaning lightly, I gently slump on the bed and close my eyes. My shoulder got injured again and I had to get a cast on it. I didn’t go back to the training hall again because the supervisor told me to get some rest. Now here I am lying down on my bed in the fort with my aching shoulders and my mind wandering around. I am still pissed at Bastian for hiding things from me but I can’t totally blame him. I also hid the fact that I was married to Cahir from him too but even though he is hiding way too many things than I can even imagine. How did he know what James’s rune was for? I have seen his body and I haven’t seen any rune on him before. My thoughts are interrupted when a knock resonates on my door and a female soldier saunters in. “Someone is here to see you, she is waiting by the gate” “Okay” I jump out of bed and grab a tacky shirt from the hanger before making my way out. whoever it is better come bearing good news because right now, I am not even in the m

CAHIR’s POV.With a little grunt, I slump down on the bed beside her. I can hear her raspy breathing. Leaning closer, I pull her naked body into my arms and press a kiss on her bare shoulder.“Are you okay?” I ask her, pressing another kiss on her back.“My body is shaking” she says trying to stifle a smile but she can’t, her face breaks into a huge smile, “but I am fine, thank you”“I can see it,” I tell her.I rest my head on her back and close my eyes again. I want to be in her arms forever, loving her and giving her the world. I want to give her a world where she doesn’t have to care about anyone or anything else. Where we will raise our child without being scared of the prophecy coming to pass. A world where there is no Bastian and no king Taurus. Just the two of us loving each other without any care in the world.“What’s going on in your mind?” She asks me.“Nothing princess”After kissing her again, I gently pull away from her and stand up from the bed.“I need to see the king”

ADELE’s POV.I don’t know for how long Cahir has been gone this time but when I open my eyes from my sleep, I see a familiar figure seated on the chair away from me…Desdemona. How did she even get in here? How did she..“Did you enjoy your sleep?” She asks mockingly, “because after all the mayhem you caused, you are sleeping peacefully”“Is that why you sneaked into my room when you shouldn’t?”“Oh spare me the trash!” She backs out, “you are the reason why Cahir is in this state. He gave up the throne because of you, he has become the enemy of the king because of you and you think it is okay to stay and sleep? How dare you even think of closing your eyes when you have turned the whole kingdom upside down?”“You..The door bursts open and Cahir saunters in, his eyes darkening as he steps into the room. A cold air settles in the air, he is upset and he is not even trying to hide it.“How dare you come into my chambers, Desdemona?” He growls, his jaw clenching together and his face beco

CAHIR’s POV.As soon as I step out of the room, the smile I was struggling to contain comes bursting out of me. All that was needed was just a simple conversation and we caused a lot of trouble because of that. I have missed her, I can’t even lie about her. The gods know how much I wanted to pull her into my embrace and tell her how much I love her. I thought she deliberately chose Bastian over me time and again. It turns out it was a miscommunication on our part. I am never letting that happen again, I am never letting her go away from me again no matter what.“Cahir!” Someone calls behind me and I come to halt, I don’t bother turning because I already know who it is.“We need to talk” she says again, “and I mean a fucking conversation”“I don’t have time for you” I tell her, “I have a lot I need to do”“You destroyed your father’s ice dungeon and you abdicated the throne. I thought you wanted it, Cahir? What is going on with you? Is it because of that lowlife”“She has a name, Desde

ADELE’s POV.As soon as he says those words to me, it’s like my world came to a fucking standstill. He let Bastian go? What does that even mean? Why would he let him go when he knows the kind of a criminal his brother is?Once again, he has shown me that he will choose others over me. What the hell was I thinking? He has always had his things all planned out and the people he cares about are at the top of the pyramid.I scoff at the reality of my relationship with him, I was the only one having a second thought. He never cared and he would never.“Give me an explanation” I ask after a while, my jaw grinding against each other, “why would you let him go?”“Maybe to spite you” he scoffs, “does it hurt?”“How dare you, Cahir?”“You kept choosing him over me!” He yells, his voice reaching the roof, “every single time when I wanted you to choose me, you always chose him like I mean nothing to you. We are married, we are having a baby but yet you always chose him over me Kirk I mean nothing

ADELINE’s POV.I didn’t expect him to come for me the moment he woke up but here he is, carrying me out of the ice dungeon despite how own injury. I purposely allowed the king to capture me because that was the only way for me to see Cahir when he woke up. I spoke to hearfyre and idrid about it and they agreed. It’s not like I forgot what Cahir did to me but I couldn’t bring myself to leave when he was still unconscious. I was the one who stabbed him, I was the one who put him in that position so it was okay for me to wait until he was better. Father didn’t teach me to break relationships unnecessarily and I am not going to do that.As for Bastian and my family, I have let them be for now. I am going to take my revenge later in a way that the three of them would be sorry for what they did.Now I have to stay alive no matter what, I can’t let myself die yet.“Put me down” I force myself to tell him but he ignores me and continues on his way. He is so stubborn and that’s one thing that

CAHIR’s POVBlood..fire…the dagger. She took his hand instead of mine and I promised to take my revenge on her. She chose him over me, I should take my pound of flesh and make her pay for not believing in me.“General?” I hear my voice from a distance and I gently turn around to see her standing behind me.“Even in my dreams. You are here” I manage to force the words out of my mouth.“Why? You don’t want me?”“You chose my brother over me, this is what you get for being what you are”“You speak like you don’t understand the severity of things, general” she starts to walk towards me, “you think you are one hell of a man but you are worse than anything. Do you think the prophecy is a joke?”“Are you instigating me to kill?”“You can’t change what has been written, general. You can only do what is necessary”She comes to a halt in front of me, my huge frame towering above her. Now looking at her, she doesn’t look like my Adele. They have the same face but different temperaments and way o

BASTIAN’s POV.From the window, I watch all of them battle her and I know deep inside of me that they are no longer a match for her. She has evolved in a way none of us thought was possible. She was now someone we couldn’t afford to mess with and that’s why laughed at Desdemona when she sent that useless assassin after her. I bet everything I owned to the fact that Adele will come back unscathed and she did. Now Xena under the command of the mint has refused her entry but i know my best friend. She doesn’t back down from a fight and I admire her for that.“For someone who is about to be killed by her, you really have a happy look on your face” Caroline’s voice rings in my ear as she comes to stand behind me, “shouldn’t you do something?”“I already have all this figured out”I tell her, “now you wait and watch what happens. I am not going to let my best friend become a stranger to me”“She is not stupid”“Well, let’s see how this goes”Pulling out my sword, I make my way out of the roo

ADELE’s POV.I let out a light groan as I lower myself on the rock, pulling out my water container, I take a mouthful, letting out a huge sigh. Finally, I have gotten all the medications and it’s time to get going. It has been hell of a day and right now I genuinely want to lay down on my bed and take a nice nap.A frog jumping at the side catches my attention and somehow it reminds of Bastian and the horrible things he has done. I took him as my own family and this is what he does to me. He killed my father and pretended about it for years, making me believe the dragons did it. How could he do something like that? How could he look me in the eyes all these years whenever I told him about my father? He has no conscience, I can see it now. The fact that he pretended to be my friend for years while being my father’s killer says a lot about him and everything I have ever believed in.“You can’t continue sulking here” hearfyre’s irritated voice rings in my ears, “unless you want your husb

BASTIAN’s POVAs soon as she disappears out of the room, I turn my gaze to the unconscious man on the bed. The urge to grab a dagger and thrust it into him envelops me but I can’t do that, not when the physicians are both here and the king is just outside the door.What the hell Cahir? Why did he have to show her? I have kept that secret for a long time but somehow he managed to find out and even show her the evidence. I didn’t know Cahir had mastered that magic art, now I was taken unawares and it would take the grace of the gods for me to be able to talk my way out of this one. Adele always believes everything I tell her, but I have a feeling she won’t believe any kind of lies that I tell this time around.“You should leave now, my prince” one of them tells me, “we want to clean him up”With one last angry look at him, I make my way out of the room stopping when I come across my father and Desdemona.“How is your brother?” He asks me frantically and I scoff. I have never taken him a
