Denied by Destiny: Trapped in the Shadows of the Mate Bond

Hector POV

With her lifeless body in my arms I run from the house, my eyes searching for a car to get us as far away from this hell hole as possible.

My eyes find a car ahead, that seems to have crashed into a large tree trunk on the side of the road.

I rip open the back passenger door, very carefully laying Kaia across the back seats. I plant a kiss on her forehead, before moving to open the driver's door, I damn hope this car still works. As I open the driver's door a body rolls out on to the ground beneath me.

I take a step back....Samson.

My eyes dart to Kaia in the back seat, did she do this...is this how she managed to get back to me.

He was like her...pale...lifeless. What did she do...

I bend down, grabbing him by the collar...he was still alive, just.

"What did you do to her?" My growl is demonic, to the point that it doesn't even sound like me.

I shake him, this fucker wasn't going to die on me until I knew what he had done to my mate.

His eyes flash open, a recognition landing on them before a smirk curls in the corner of his mouth. "She took too much energy from me..." He pants out, his last

ords a struggle for him.

Energy, she took energy from him? Like she had done to me that one time, but this was different.

She hadn't just immobilised him she had completely drained him to the brink of death.

But I could feel it, feel her energy coursing through me. Is that what she did...she gave her energy to me.NôvelDrama.Org (C) content.

"She didn't take enough fucker." I growl out, my lips inches from his as I let my eyes seek into his soul.

My eyes would be the last he would see, the ones that would haunt him forever in the after world.

Without a second thought, I twist his neck...my hands turning until I hear the snap of his upper spine crack within my grasp.

There would be no coming back from that, werewolf or not.

I fling his dead body towards the tree, his deathly stare can watch the flames eat away at his hideout until his body starts to rot and the crows come for him.

Moving into the driver's seat, I reverse the car out of the tree trunk before hitting my foot on the gas pedal. I wanted to be miles away from this place as soon as possible.

My eyes cast behind in the rearview mirror, the abandoned house that Samson had kept us captives would soon be a pile of ash.

All evidence burning away with it.

My eyes turn back to Kaia, unconscious on the back seats. Her breathing was calming and her heartbeat

was steadying.

The drugs Samson had given her were still laced within her system but her body was fighting it, she would be back with me soon enough.

I just needed to get her home to safety.

In my hurry to get us the hell out of there I hadn't considered the route back, I just cut across country where I could...I just needed to get back to the Dark Phantom pack and get her to a doctor. Get us both to the doctor because this energy within me was starting to fade. Entering on to a highway, I noticed three black SUVS following us from behind.

My eyes keeping a careful close watch on them, my speeding not rting. It wasn't until one of the cars decided to bump us from behind that I had no choice but to pull over.

I had entered somebody's territory without permission, and they were pissed. I was a strong alpha, the strongest around...my aura was one that would make another Alpha aware of trespassing.

As soon as I pull over to the hard shoulder I wind the window down, the three black SUV's pulling up either side and now blocking my escape by blocking the car in.

A window winds down on the SUV to my driver's side to reveal a vehicle full of male werewolves, my sniffing of the air tells me they were of warrior status. "Alpha Hector?"

"Yes?" My eyes narrow as they already know my identity.

"We are the warriors of the Red Thorn pack.."

The Red Thorn pack, shit. I didn't realise I had ventured into their territory, what a fucking mistake to

make.

"....Alpha Atonis has requested that we bring you in."

"Requested?"

"Demanded Alpha."

My eyes turn to look at Kaia still unconscious on the chairs behind, of all the packs, this would be the last one I would ever bring her. But, unfortunately, right now, it seems I have no other choice.
