Semua Bab Bound by Blood, Fated to the Two Alphas : Bab 41 - Bab 50

ELARA'S POV(PRESENT)I stared at Kael, shocked. I couldn't believe what he had just revealed. My parents were killed? By a rogue Alpha? One that sorted for every blood healer just to heal his daughter?My parents... I couldn't believe it, the reason I had to endure such hardships, the reason I had to live as an orphan... Was because of Darius?I opened my mouth to speak, but nothing came out. I just sat there, frozen to the spot, my heart felt it weighed a thousand pounds."Elara," Kael gripped my shoulder softly, his eyes boring into mine, filled with concern. My body stiffened at the sudden contact, but I didn't react, I just stayed still. His expression dampened. "This is why I did what I did. I had to protect you...away from Darius and others like him,""No," I shook my head, still lost in disbelief, "It doesn't make sense,"A frown etched on his lips, "It doesn't have to...but it's the truth and I need you to believe me. Elara you were the only good thing I had in that pack, n

ELARA'S POVI didn't even wait for him to react before I attacked him. I stood on my tiptoes, and flung my arms around his neck, capturing his mouth with mine.A groan left his lips and I caught it with my breath. His lips then split into a grin before he titled his head and took over. His tongue swept into my mouth, strolling against my own as his lips over mine.Okay, maybe this wasn't the right thing to do at a dire moment like this. But it was definitely what I needed to relieve myself from stress.I clung tighter to his shoulders, pulling myself closer than I already was. He pressed his body harder against mine, earning a moan from me as my heat grew higher and more intense. I could feel myself getting lost in how his hands were running up and down my body, he was back at me exactly with the same type of hunger and intensity I threw at him.He lifted me up, my legs instinctively wrapped themselves around his waist as he walked us towards the bed. He finally reached the edge of t

ELARA'S POVWe continued our walk, after a while Ronan dismissed Cael, claiming he just wanted me and him to continue the walk alone.We kept on walking until we stumbled upon a hidden water fountain, tucked away in a secluded corner of the Palace gardens, almost swallowed by the encroaching forest. I never knew such a scene existed in this place. The intricate stonework was breathtaking, Moss clinging to the edges, giving it an air of ancient mystery. Water gurgled softly, a soothing counterpoint to the anxieties that's still clung to me."Wow," I breathed, totally mesmerized by the scene. "I never knew something like this was here,"Ronan flashed a smile, a playful glint in his eyes. "I've never taken you on an actual walk before. I'm sorry," his face fell as he continued, "I've been so occupied with my duties I barely made time for us,"My heart ached at his words, I wish I could tell him everything but it wasn't possible. I for one knew how extreme Ronan would go just to keep me o

ELARA'S POVI practically dragged Kael into the library, shoving him inside and slammed the door shut the moment we were out of sight. My heart hammered against my ribs, a frantic drumbeat accompanying the turmoil in my mind. I turned to face him, my voice laced with urgency."What's going on?" I demanded, my eyes searching his. "What happened?!"His gaze darkened, lips pressing into a thin grim line. "It's just like I said-""No," I cut him off, shaking my head in disbelief. The possibility of those men being Darius's men was too horrifying to contemplate "It can't be...can it? Darius couldn't have possibly sent his rogue to infiltrate Ronan's territory and they succeeded? It's impossible," My voice cracked, the weight of the implications pressed down on me.He let out a shaky breath, his shoulders slumping slightly. "I already told you. Darius won't stop, for all I know he has allies within this palace, right under our noses and-"I cut him off, "What should I do then?" I asked, "I

THIRD PERSON POV"Your boy seems to be trouble, doesn't he, Lady Marcelline?" Darius's voice, smooth as aged whiskey, cut through the tense silence. He offered her a jug of ale, a gesture which she dismissed with a wave of her hand. Lately, Darius had visited, but not for Elara, a reason that Marceline wanted to find out.Her question, still the same.'Why hasn't Darius made an attempt to take Elara yet? Why was he still wasting time?'Marceline's absence in the palace had been explained to Ronan as a simple desire to stretch her legs beyond the Pack's territory. Ronan didn't even bother to ask or question her further, he simply agreed and ordered two guards to accompany her. His nonchalance towards her stung, but yet it was like a relief to her. It meant he wouldn't suspect her meeting with Darius."Unfortunately, Silas has been acting...weird. I thought I could trust him completely without him defaulting," She admitted, a soft sigh escaping her lips. "But atleast he's still useful.
