Chapter 0044


    Dane


    “Who?” Raven splutters


    “Our prisoner.” I had told her same information but not all. I may have neglected to tell her wha he was.


    “Right. And why does Neah need to meet him?”


    “Because he ims to be Neah''s brother.” My mate is standingpletely still, almost like she is frozen in time. She hadn''t wanted to meet him and I


    didn''t me her, but now, he might be the only one who could answer questions about herself. “Neah?


    “No” she shakes her head at me. “No I....I don’t want to. You said... you said it was up to me.


    “I did, but now I think it will be beneficial. I can''t prepare you.”


    “Prepare me for what?”


    “For your first shift.”


    Her mouth drops open


    She has somehow forgotten that bit of being unbound.’ Aero mumbles.


    “It will happen Neah, and you won''t be able to stop it. The least I can do is make sure you are prepared.”


    She looks pained. Instead of lowering her eyes, they go up to the ceiling as she shakes her head.


    Her thoughts were just words that made no sense. She couldn''t even think in sentences. Except for one ring statement. ‘He did this!”


    She med me.


    “Raven, leave!” I order


    When she hears my tone, she doesn’t even question me and hurries out the door, mming it shut behind her. Leaving me and my mate alone.


    Taking a seat. I stare at my newly marked mate as she fights with her own thoughts.


    She mes us?’ Aero sighs. ‘We only imed her.”


    ‘And that''s the problem. iming her, unbound her after she had just told me she wanted to stay bound.’


    “You me me?” I ask after a few moments


    Her blue eyes leave the ceiling, settling on me and her fingers go directly to the mark on her neck. Tears prick at the corner of her eyes.


    “You think that I made you a ‘monster’?”


    She still doesn’t speak to me


    “Have you ever considered there might be more to why you were bound? I believe that Trey did it because he feared what you would be capable of.”


    ‘l''m..../m not an Alpha.” she shakes


    her head again. “You keep trying to


    make outthat this is a good thing.- >


    But if itiStrue, and...and you really


    believethat’s why Trey had me.’

    feether fear. A fear of the unknown.


    Linking Eric, I ask him to bring Devon to my office. If I couldn’t get Neah to go to him, then I would have to bring him to her.


    After a few minutes of watching Neah internally beat herself up, Eric shoves Devon through the door.


    “Ah, Alpha Dane.” Devon looks back.


    over his s shoulder at Eric, “You coald


    have at. least told me this was where


    we were going. There was noneed

    He turns to look at Neah. “It''s been so long.”


    Neah doesn''t answer. She sits in the chair in the corner of the room inplete silence. She may not be physically saying anything horrible, but she


    was definitely thinking it


    “You don''t know who I am, do you?” Devon asks herThis content belongs to N?/velDra/ma.Org .


    Neah silently shakes her head.


    “Can you sense her?” I demand


    “Yes.” Devon mutters without taking his eyes off of her. "And I see you have imed her. Finally caved to your feelings?”


    I see how Neah pulls her knees to her chest, and yanks her shirt cor up around her neck, hiding my mark. She felt exposed


    “I assume you haven''t brought me here so your Beta can have his way with me.” He shoots Eric a suggestive wink.


    Does this guy ever stop talking?’ Aero mutters. ‘He is just like Jenson!”


    Eric smacks Devon across the back of the head, telling him to sit.
