All Chapters of Bound by Two: Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

Leaning against the closed door, Suki panted for air as if she’d been running for miles. She ran her fingers through her hair as she tried to process the scene she had walked in on. Reynard and Brendan. Her mates. Kissing. Willingly kissing. Two people who only had negative and hateful things to say about one another, who put up with each other for her sake. They shared something so intimate and passionate. Something bonding. Something that, in their community of male and female bonded werewolves, would be severely frowned upon for going against nature. Barefoot, she trudged through the garden towards the trees, feeling the cooling grass against her warm skin. It grounded her and settled her ever so slightly – it was the only way she could feel connected to nature with the restrictions against her power. She should have been disappointed. She should have hated what she witnessed – been disgusted even. Her mind should have told her that it was wrong, and she should have told them

“Shit,” Suki whispered, rushing away from the window and scurrying over to her bed to find her phone. “Shit, shit, shit,” she kept whispering. Where the hell is my phone? She thought as she continued to scramble for it. Finally, she found it under a pillow on the floor. She yanked it and smacked the screen awake, but the battery was dead. Typical. She wanted to scream and cry and vomit, but there was no time to panic. Not now. Where is my charger?Of course, it was downstairs, in her suitcase, still yet to be unpacked. Fuck.Suki had trained her entire life to fight and protect herself, but her training had never accounted for the loss of her powers. In the state she was in – no access to her wolf, drained of blood and extremely exhausted – she was lucky she could stand right now. She knew what her mates would say to her – stay calm and get somewhere safe. Oh, how she wished she could call for them down their bond. A loud crash of something smashing downstairs broke her out of

The next morning, the mansion was swarmed by Alpha Wilder’s personal guards, who demanded a search of the grounds for any further clues about where Suki had been taken and how all the night’s events had unfolded. Machiavelli’s raging emotions had settled into pure distraught as he came to terms with the disappearance of his daughter. Alpha Wilder and his son, Zale, had also come over to console him and offer their assistance. Zale placed a coffee in front of Machiavelli. “She’s powerless, Hemming,” he choked out as he wrapped his hands around the coffee. The Alpha placed a hand on his shoulders and squeezed tightly. “I know, brother, but I promise you that we will find her. It’ll be our top priority.”Allowing the Beta to wallow in his sorrows without an audience, Zale made his way over to Reynard and Brendan. He and Brendan nodded to one another before Zale leaned against the wall that they were lingering at, watching all the assigned warriors conduct their thorough search of th

A surge of sorrowing pain plunged into Reynard’s chest, realising his best friend and mate may never be able to connect with nature and her wolf spirit ever again. He looked at Brendan, sensing his own suffering down the bond, and his eyes widened when he saw a puff of his smoky shadows emit from him. ‘Brendan,’ Rey quavered down the bond. ‘You need to relax.’“Zale, please see your friend out; he’s interrupted enough,” stated Alpha Wilder. “Yes, sir,” he responded, already on his feet, leading Brendan out with a firm grip. Before he could force himself back in, Reynard pushed down the bond to stop him. ‘I’ll fill you in when the meeting is over.’Clenching his jaw, Brendan nodded once and stopped fighting against his friend’s force. The meeting continued.Machiavelli sat back down and composed himself once more. “Based on the rate at which the serum has been improving by this unknown enemy, we can assume they’re in a rush to get it in a state where it completely eliminates our con

A throbbing sensation was the first thing Suki felt as she sluggishly opened her eyes. The weight of her grogginess was shown in her struggling to keep her eyes open. She whimpered. What the hell happened?Where am I? As the realisation hit, her eyes flashed open, and she gasped, trying to sit up, but as she did, her arms were slightly restricted. She looked down to see steel shackles around both her wrists, attached to thick chains on the bed. A hospital bed.She looked to her side where a machine beeped away, monitoring her vitals. Looking around the rest of her surroundings, Suki realised the bed and medical equipment stuck out like a sore thumb in comparison to where she was – inside a cage that looked designed to hold animals.To hold in werewolves. She felt like she couldn’t breathe. Placing her hand on her chest, struggling to handle the weight of the chains, she slowly drew her hand up towards her neck and felt something cold and solid around her neck. “Well, look who’s f
