Going Rogue Chapter 31
GINAShocked doesn’t begin to describe how I felt with Jericho rejected his pack to follow me. I wanted to speak up and stop him. I wanted to tell him not to waste his time, that I’m not worth it and he’ll only be disappointed, but my tongue was heavy in my mouth.My wolf, however, was leaping with excitement at the idea that our mate already wanted to be with us this badly without knowing anything about us. I rolled my eyes and reminded myself that Atticus also seemed to want us until he learned what we’d done.This mate will be no different. He will reject me as soon as he learns about my past. If he wants to leave his pack for me, that’s fine. He’ll just get what he deserves when he rejects me and then he’s all alone as a rogue.What I’m unsure about is Silas’ plan. I’m certain that he won’t let Jericho join our pack, but what is the point in having him leave his pack to follow us? What is Silas hoping to gain from my connection to Jericho?As we run through the forest, Sil
Going Rogue Chapter 32
JERICHO I haven’t seen my mate, Giovanna, in weeks. My wolf is growing more agitated each day and clawing to get out and go find her. If I thought it was just Silas keeping us apart, I wouldn’t hesitate to fight to see her, but I’m still unclear on where she stands when it comes to us. It’s clear that she’s holding back, but I could also see the pull of the mate bond working on her the last few times I saw her. I don’t know her reasons for fighting the bond, but I know that forcing her to accept it will not work in my favor to win her heart. I’m trying to be patient, but my wolf does not understand. At first, I was camping out in the woods with limited resources, but Silas would send someone out to check on my food and water supply and to come get me when he wanted to talk, but after the first couple of weeks, he provided a cell phone that he can use to call me. I know they have been keeping watch over me, even when I don’t see them. When the wind was in my favor I could smell
Going Rogue Chapter 33
JERICHOI follow the wolf to the meeting location, and it’s one of my least favorite places to meet. An old, abandoned shed with a rusty door and several holes in the roof.Entering the space, I see Silas standing and waiting with a scowl on his face.“Why didn’t you answer your phone?” He sneered.“I didn’t feel like it.” I respond, acting as if I have nothing to lose. I can tell that Silas is caught off-guard by my cavalier attitude, but he does a good job of maintaining his poker face.“Need I remind you that you are a rogue depending on us for assistance, not to mention your mate, Gina?”Of course, I knew he would try to use my mate against me as always, but this time he doubled up and made it seem like I couldn’t survive without them providing me with food, water, and other necessities. There was no way I would let him think he had the upper hand anymore.“Need I remind YOU,” I snapped back, “that I have a job and a house now that I have paid for on my own, not to mention, I
Going Rogue Chapter 34
GINAKarli is fuming! I’ve never seen this girl get angry, but right now she looks like a cartoon character who’s about to have steam shooting out of her ears! It was endearing how angry she was for me and the fact that I had previously been rejected by my mate, but I reminded myself that she didn’t truly know me. She might be more understanding of my mate’s decision if she knew about my past, but I had no intention of giving her all those details.“Gina, I’m so sorry that you went through that,” she apologizes, “It totally makes sense that you would avoid any sort of relationship after that kind of hurt, but you must see that the moon goddess is trying to set things right by giving you a second chance mate.”I smile at her attempt to comfort and reassure me. I appreciate her concern for me but remain guarded. She might feel differently about me if she only knew the truth. I earned that rejection with my own stupid choices. I had already proven that I was not deserving of a mate
Going Rogue Chapter 35
GINA“What the hell do you want now?” Jericho is standing there with the door open, but he’s not looking at me.He’s only wearing a pair of sweatpants, sitting low on his hips, putting his muscles on display in a way that makes my mouth water. His gaze is focused on the open book in his hand rather than on me, and I realize that it’s been quite some time since I last saw him. I can’t help but notice that his hair has grown longer. It hangs down past his eyes, blocking my view of them, but his hair has more wave in it than I remembered. Maybe my memory is a bit fuzzy, or maybe it’s the extra length that allows the body to show more. Either way, I take a moment to study the man in front of me.There is a bit of stubble on his face, as if he hasn’t bothered to shave in a few days, but I can still see the lines of his strong jaw that perfectly match his straight sharp nose. He’s a very handsome man, and I’d be an idiot to deny that fact.Jericho sighs loudly as he closes his book an
Going Rogue Chapter 36
GINA As I ran through the forest, back to my room, the cool night air helped to clear my head. I can’t believe I almost kissed him! So much for keeping my distance and remaining neutral. Half of me was kicking myself for letting my guard down, while the other half was upset that I didn’t move in for the kiss sooner before I had to leave. I was a mess. The next day I prepared myself to go with Silas and see Jericho again. Jericho and I had already discussed how this would go and what we would say to one another, so I wasn’t worried about that part, but after the way I ran out on him last night, I was nervous about seeing him again. When Silas and I arrived at Jericho’s house, my heart felt like it would beat right out of my chest. It was probably a good thing because if I seemed too calm, Silas might be suspicious. Jericho played his part perfectly and the meeting with Silas went exactly as we had planned. I kept Jericho “on the hook” without fully giving in to the mate bond,
Going Rogue Chapter 37
GINA “What are you doing out here?” Mathias mind-links me. If I play it cool and act casual enough, there’s no reason for him to bring it up to Silas or anyone else. “Just out for a run. I needed a break, so I let my wolf take control.” “Well, we have patrols to keep an eye on this rogue here,” he tips his head back indicating the house in the clearing behind him. “We have to make sure he isn’t doing anything suspicious, like making contact with his old pack to give them a heads up about us.” “Good idea. I’ll head back now. Have a good night.” Quickly taking off back towards the pack house, I make sure that Mathias sees me leaving just in case it comes up and there are any questions. If Silas does find out I was here, he should believe that my wolf brought me here without my knowing about it. He knows about the mate bond and how strong the pull can be, and I can truthfully tell him that I left when I realized where I was. Although now, I won’t be able to stop thinking abou
Going Rogue Chapter 38
GINAKarli and I went over the modified plan about eight times before we had to go our separate ways to fulfill our pack duties. It rained a bit as well, which was a stroke of luck! I was back in my room by 9:00 PM, but couldn’t stop fidgeting and thinking about the task ahead of me.Everything must be perfect, or it will all fall apart, and I can safely assume that I’ll never see my mate again. I’m not sure how he would do it, but I’m convinced that Silas would find a way to keep us apart indefinitely.Watching the clock, the hours crept forward at the slowest pace I’ve ever experienced in my life. Finally, 11:30 PM rolled around and it was time for me to head out. I need to make it to the first checkpoint before midnight.After double checking my satchel for the elixir, I snuck out the east entrance. Upon entering the more dense section of the forest, I glance around to make sure no one else is out or watching me, then I take off running at a steady pace.The woods are quiet a
