My Alpha, My Demise 60
Jude’s POV“Dude, I know you even more than I know myself, there is something you and Robert are obviously hiding. Spell it” I mind linked him tightly.We were all standing in the middle of the corridor outside Irena’s room waiting for her doctors to come out with a report of her health condition.As soon as I said to Ian that he seemed off, his eyes flickered briefly to Davina, while Robert seemed to stiffen.There was something involving Davina, and he didn’t want to speak up in front of her, and that’s why I began my interrogation through the privacy of our mind link.He looked at me in a troubled expression and said tightly; between us, “Later Jude please!”I watched him storm off towards the exit of the hospital, and I was half inclined to go chase after him, but I thought better of it and decided to stick with Davina instead.In all my years since knowing Ian, he never seemed so troubled except when he was dealing with my possible death and the aftermath of what he did to Davina
My Alpha, My Demise 61
Jude’s POVIt took me a few seconds to comprehend what he said, a few more seconds to comprehend why the hell he said it like it was a death sentence instead of a blessing he had been looking for ever since his wolf awakened, and a few; or more than a few, seconds to find my voice again.“And why the hell are you acting like it’s the end of the world?” I chastised.I already anticipated his answer, but wanted to hear it directly from him, I wanted to know what he was thinking of exactly, and whether it was the same answer I was expecting from him or not.He looked at me with complete misery “I can’t believe you just asked me that! You know damn well why! Because it is! Where should I start? The fact that she’s Davina’s sister? You know, your mate? The one I tortured non stop for two days in order to save you? The one who kept her mouth shut and never begged or given up to the pain I caused her to keep her sister alive? Do you know what that means Jude? I was trying to kill my own mate
My Alpha, My Demise 62
Davina’s POVI proceeded to tell Irena a clean short version of what happened after I left her that night all the way to the moment Ian and Robert saved her.I didn’t mention that Jude tried to tear out my heart at first sight nor about the prophecy behind it. I didn’t tell her about my suffering the first two days here. I didn’t tell her that Jude vowed to make me pay for trying to kill him and even tried to assert that vow by whipping me at first, before believing my story and my reason for doing what I tried to do. I didn’t tell her about the second spy I was able to identify nor the fact that he wasn’t a spy at all but our own father. I didn’t tell her about my warlock side nor the prophecy that tore our family apart the second we were born.Yeah, I barely told her anything. While the real story would have taken me thirty minutes to finish, this version barely took seven minutes.“I’m so sorry it took some time to save you. I was frantic with worry about you all the time. I would
My Alpha, My Demise 63
Davina’s POV My response was automatic and came out of my mouth naturally in disbelief “Shut the fuck up” I looked between them all as the reality of what he just said started to set in. I ended up staring blankly at the floor and coming to terms with that sick twisted turn of fate. Could the moon goddess have a better sense of humor than that? I’d guess not. Out of all the people in this wide fucking world, she had to bring the person I hated the most now; after Chase, the person I can barely look at without having my blood boil from hatred, and my mind always unwillingly slipping to the painful memories he forever etched into my brain, and mate him with the closest person to my soul? Why? Just why did it have to be Ian? Why did that happen, when I was barely just starting to get used to the fact that he will always be present in my life because of his closeness to Jude? When I barely got a tight grip on my emotions and my mouth whenever we had an encounter together. When I ke
My Alpha, My Demise 64
Jude’s POVI could both feel and see how tense and angry Davina was by the news about Ian and Irena.For a split second, I thought she was going to say everything to her sister and ruin any chances of Ian and his mate to ever seal that mate bond.Somehow, she held her tongue. But that didn’t stop her from throwing a few slicing words to Ian through the mind link.I had no idea what was on her mind now, as we all followed her outside of the hospital’s sliding door and stood at its entrance out in the open.It was almost eleven in the morning and the sun was partially obscured by the cover of clouds decorating the sky today. It was also windy as I saw Davina’s hair drifting with the wind.When we were on the other side of the hospital building, she finally turned towards us and openly glared.Mostly her glare was directed towards Ian but me and Robert also got a few seconds of it and I knew exactly why.Her next words only confirmed it.“Why the hell did any of you think it was wise to
My Alpha, My Demise 65
Davina’s POV I was breathing very hard at that point. I could still feel the anger within me, suffocating me, trapping me in place. Jude just looked at me without saying anything. I had no idea what he was thinking of me, and I didn’t really care at that moment. I was walking through the forest for the last thirty minutes trying to keep myself from walking into Irena’s room and telling her everything. When he doesn’t say anything for two whole minutes, I try to saunter past him and resume my walking. His hand darts out, holding my waist, stopping me in my tracks. He turns his head in my direction and I see pain flicker in his eyes. “It’s the mate bond. It made you forgive me so easily and forget what I did to you even though it was a lot more damaging than what Ian did. The mate bond is stronger than the strongest, most cruelest person in the world. I used to hate your very existence before I even met you. When the violet eyed werewolf topic would come up in my presence, I felt
My Alpha, My Demise 66
Jude’s POVI break the kiss and speak softly with our foreheads touching and my eyes piercing into her magical deep violet blue orbs “I know you’re still hurting Davina. And I know it’s about more than one ordeal. You’ve been through so much in such a short time and that’s why you keep struggling. That’s why every time you think you are okay now, something triggers you into falling back down. It will take a long time to heal. These kinds of events that took place in succession will not go away all at once. That’s why we need to face them together and we need to not let them drag us down, but make us stronger. I love you so much, and I want this sentence to be the first thing you think of whenever you feel your emotions getting the best of you, ok?”She responded emotionally “Okay. I love you too…. So much”She buried her head against my chest and tightened her arms around me. I kissed the top of her head longingly as I whispered “It will all be okay someday, I promise. We will know e
My Alpha, My Demise 67
Davina’s POVI walk inside the corridor leading towards Irena’s room and see Ian leaning against the wall next to her door.He looked dead tired, barely able to keep standing on his own two feet.It suddenly dawned me and I remembered that none of us have slept or batted an eye in one day and a half.I walked closer to him and he straightened up when he noticed me approaching towards him.He looked nervously at me as he said in a low voice; as not to risk Irena waking up or hearing this conversation “I didn’t go inside, I just wanted….I didn’t want to leave her alone in case she woke up from a nightmare or something, and I was waiting for you to come back”I ignored his statement and asked him firmly “Where is Robert?”“He’s speaking with her doctor, asking if we can take her back to the pack house after she wakes up” he said just as firmly.I nodded my head once and tilted my head to the side, silently asking him to step away from the room a little.I could have mind linked him but I
