Chapter 8

Hmm. It would be better if what Aster was suspecting was just a factor that stemmed from his overthinking tendencies and not that it was the actual truth.

Had Knox double-crossed him?

He had let the skull rogues settlement and had ventured into the night, heading to where Knox would most likely be during the midnights. His training ground.

He had to do his findings to make sure that he had not changed the location of his training grounds after Zena’s attack. Since he had not, he made his way through the dew–kissed bushes to have an impromptu meeting with Knox.

He had delivered Zena Into Knox’s hands four days ago. And Knox had promised to lift the curse but as of yesterday only, twenty five deaths were recorded.

His people were dying. Hell, he had given up a mate as powerful as Zena just to save their asses. He chuckled at the thought of Zena; the woman doesn’t even know what she possessed. If only Zena knew just how great, how powerful she was…

Well, such a shame that she didn’t.
