Reyna was just as stunned as her wolf who have gone so shell shocked that she even forgot to swipe her claws at Cain’s wolf who was pressing against his surface. Her mouth dropped open just like her wolf as she stared at him, “ Are you kidding me? This is a joke right?”“ You are not leaving me.”“ Cain, you can’t stop me——”“ Oh I can sweetheart and I am going to stop you, no matter what you have to say about it,” said Cain just as his Dire wolf stretched out his claws and slammed against his surface, eyes lighting up like fiery red of the forest fires. The wolf stared down at her with unshakable resolve, his glare bold and unflinching…. It was enraged that she has tried to run away from him and he was now giving her a sensible option to shut up, back down and stop fighting him again and again. But there was something more than just anger in those eyes, something devilish that made goosebumps break all over her skin and caused her breath to hitch in her throat—— the possessiveness w

Reyna held her hand up, “ Now wait for a second——”“ There is no point, I tried walking away from you, giving you the space that you wanted, but it didn’t work and I don’t see why we need to waste our time doing it all over again, sweetheart. I don’t want to waste any more of our time when we could do something more meaningful than this and you know it too. I am done trying to play safe with you, I don’t care what's going to happen and now I won’t let you care about it either. We just need to take our chances and see where this will lead us to, that's the least we can do right?” When she didn’t look up at him, he tipped her head up so that she was looking nowhere else but him. “ Come on, Rey. If you don’t want this why don’t you look me in the eye and say that you don’t want this—— that you don’t want me.”Reyna sucked the inside of her cheek, there was no way that she didn’t want this —— she wanted it. The future that he was painting for her, it was tempting especially when she knew

Resisting the urge to grip the two f*ckers by their throat, Cain let out a threatening growl and jutted his chin out. His wolf backed him, relishing the fact that his human counterpart was at least trying to fight for their mate, and it damn near pleased the both of them when the two males stiffened ever so slightly. “ You know I am quite happy that you treat Reyna so well but what pisses me off is that the two of you are acting like caring uncles when the truth is that you couldn’t even save her from that f*cker who messed her life, where were you when that f*ckeed up bastard tried to force a claim on her? As you said, you two knew that Glenn was a rotten bastard who tried to tie her next to him all because he wanted her powers. If you have tried a little harder then there wouldn’t have been any need for me to intercept and play the hero—— there would be no ‘ true mate saving the damsel in distress’ scenarios playing here but you didn’t and here we are now. You didn’t even know that

“ So, did you find anything?” asked Cain going straight to the point when he saw Diskant walking through his office door. The latter rolled his eyes as he strolled inside and took a seat before picking up the water bottle on the table and taking a long swig. “ You know mate, this is why girls never liked you. You go straight to the point, you first need to at least ask if they want to go on a date to share a drink with you—— not, ‘ Hey girlie, let's f*ck.’ That’s a minus for you, you know that?”It took every bit of patience that Cain had not to smack the guy’s head. With his brows twitching, he clenched his fists and asked, “ I didn’t call you here for dating advice D, I want to know what did you find out about what’s going on with Variant house and its senators?”Diskant placed the water bottle back on the table and sighed. “I tried mate like I tried to get inside their territory and take a look but it's not child play where I can just pop in and out because I want to, the territory

“ So are you trying to tell me that——” Cain began, his voice brimming with anger, “ That someone snaked into our lodge dropped that necklace right in front of your door for the sake of playing mind games with you when you were all alone and you only thought of telling me about this right now, are you serious, Reyna?”She shot him a frown. “ Don’t you try to make me a villain in this one and sure as hell don’t you dare to use that accusatory tone with me, Brutus. Be mad if you want but I was going to tell you —— and maybe I would have told you if you weren’t playing hide and seek with me. And if you want to act like this then you might as well go somewhere else and leave me alone so that I can at least think of a solution, I mean if you can’t help me out then for the love of God at least let me work out what I should do with what’s happening here.”Silence descended upon the two of them, and it only further annoyed her as for her wolf, she was no less winded than her. Contemplating ab
