All Chapters of Shattered Bonds: Chapter 141 - Chapter 150

It’s been months, and I’ve tried with everything I have to heal Dominic. But, as Buppig has said, ‘the time hasn’t come’. It’s so annoying. Each time, Dominic and Tialha gets their hopes up and each time, I disappoint them. Aolis has gone silent again. I hear from Ailduin that more fae are going dark. Aolis is trying to find Lorelai, but she keeps evading him. She is creating an army, or that’s what Ailduin thinks. She’s very smart, and she knows how Aolis and Ailduin plan their strategies. It has given her the upper hand, causing the deaths of many of Ailduin’s soldiers and forcing him and Aolis to change their fighting strategy. But as of now, the new plan hasn’t worked. More and more fae are turning dark. The stories coming from the townships is that Lorelai is imprisoning the families and loved ones that she wants as her soldiers, threatening their families if they don’t agree to become her minions. While I understand their sacrifice, it still makes me angry that she has this le

I’m so excited to see Emlyn and then to see Cayd too. It’s nice to have my family here with me. Even though neither of them are blood relatives, the Guardians' children have always been like family to each other. When Emlyn tells me about what happened between her and Rich, I’m shocked. I’m so angry at him I want to punch him. Stupid men. Apparently, it’s not just my mate that does stupid things. I’m even more shocked when I hear that she wants to try to break her Guardian bond. I didn’t even know that was possible. I feel terrible that I didn’t know that any of this was going on. First Emerson and his bond with Quinn, now Rich and Emlyn. I feel so disconnected from the packs and what is going on with them. I get Buppig to help us find books that might give us a clue as to where to find anything on how to break the Guardian bond. We’ve been pouring over them for days when I hear the rumblings that the soldiers are back. It’s another couple of hours before Aolis finally comes to fin

When I open my eyes, I’m disoriented. Where am I? There’s a strange beeping sound nearby and the sounds of scurrying, as if people are busy rushing around. Is it morning? Did I oversleep? I reach out, like I always do for Hera. I only get a soft, exhausted response before she’s gone again. My body hurts. A lot. More than it’s ever hurt before. Am I injured? Is Hera injured? I try to clear my hazy brain and then it all comes flooding back. Lorelai, the battle, the lightning, Hera’s heart stopping. ‘Hera!’ I scream. Is she dead? Am I alone? ‘I’m here. Need to heal.’ She says softly before drifting away again. I hear movement near me, someone comes over and a warm hand touches my face. Then I smell the delicious scent of freshly fallen snow. “Aolis.” I say as my eyes drift open. His grey-green eyes are full of concern as he leans over me, looking at me intently. “Lily. Lily, you’re okay.” He says, pulling me into his arms and burying his face in my neck. I feel his body jerking

I wake up warm and hungry, my stomach making a loud growling sound. I feel Aolis lean over and kiss the top of my head. “Sounds like I need to get someone some food. How are you feeling?” “Better.” I say, reaching out to Hera. ‘Yes, better and stronger.’ She says. “Hera agrees.” Aolis untangles himself from me and goes to his door. I guess someone is stationed there because I hear him say something before closing the door and returning to my side. “Let’s take a look at that burn. The doctor said that would be the test of when you are getting better. He helps me to pull the shirt over my head and we both look down at it. It looks a lot better than it did in the bathtub. I look up at Aolis. “How long did we sleep?” I ask. He turns to look outside. “You slept the rest of the day yesterday and overnight.” I jump up. “I did?” He wraps his arms around me, pulling me into his lap. “Yes, you did and you needed every bit of that time to rest. It obviously was good for both you and Her

I’m excited and a bit nervous after hearing what Aolis said in the shower. But I’m ready, both Hera and I are ready. When we step out of the shower, Aolis wraps a soft towel around me, slowly drying me from head to toe. Then he takes a brush and slowly brushes out my hair. It feels fantastic. “Go lay on the bed, face down.” He says, pulling the towel from off my shoulders. He kisses my forehead before gently turning me and nudging me from the room. When I step into our bedroom, I see that he has transformed it while I was in the shower. The soft glow of the candles makes it feel magical, like the fairy lights in the forest at night. The sounds in the room make me feel like we’re actually deep inside the forest. ‘It’s perfect.’ Hera says, knowing this is as much for her as it is for me. Aolis is both of our mate. Without a wolf, he will be as much her mate as he is mine. When I hear Aolis moving around in the bathroom, I walk to the bed, seeing that he has put another sheet down. I
