Chapter 0053


    “Ah, I leaned over you. You don''t like that. Sorry. I won''t do that again. Personal space isn’t one of my strongest areas.”


    He takes a seat on one of the worn sofas under the window. His deep green eyes move to the ss in my hand. “Are you nning on using that as a


    weapon?


    “No.....1...." Maybe it wasn''t such a bad idea


    “It''s not poison. I am not stupid. I don’t need Dane ripping my guts out. Just water, straight out the water machine.” He points through to what I’m


    assuming is a kitchen.


    I still don''t drink it.


    “When were you unbound?” us asks randomly


    “Huh?”


    He points to his ears. “Kind of a giveaway.”


    “Not long age.” I mumble


    “It''s a nightmare, right. More the hearing than anything. It makes you feel like your head is gaing to explode. Do they help?


    “A little. It''s...it''s still loud.”


    “It took me at least a year to get used to it.


    “You were bound?” I couldn''t keep the surprise out of my voice.


    His head bobs up and down.


    “Alpha Dane?” I knew how he felt about my binding, I couldn''t imagine him doing it to anyone.


    “Hell no. No, I was born into a different pack. I wasn''t what they wanted. ‘Too smart for my own good.’ That''s what they would tell me. When I started


    school, Dane and Eric were the only ones who didn''t bully me. Dane and Eric stuck up for me and brought me back to this pack. Dane has let me live


    here ever since.”


    Alpha Dane had saved him. He had given him a better life.


    “You were bound because you were smart?


    “Stupid right, why were you bound?”


    “I...” Iwasn''t even sure if Aloha Dane wanted me to tell people. “I was set up for killing my parents.” I tell him, at least I could stay away from the


    whole first born and monster stuff.


    “Shit. There is seriously something wrong with people.”


    “You...you don’t have a mark.” His neck was bare.


    “Not every binding is undone in the


    same way: But for me, Dane found


    someone ‘that could undo it. The


    hearing: will settle eventually.” He


    grins-at me. "Nowe on, you

    I sit in the chair while he stays on the worn sofa, respecting my need for space.


    When Dane returns, he walks in without knocking and asks me how I''m getting on.


    ‘She''s getting there.” us replies ~


    and I notice the wink, “But like I said,


    she won''t be a master reader by”

    “Well that’s enough for today. She will be back tomorrow. Same time?”


    “Sure. Just maybe bring a bottle of water with you. I don’t want Neah to keep thinking I''m trying to poison her.


    Alpha Dane cocks an eyebrow at me as us startsughing. I was mortified.


    We walk back over the grounds. Alpha Danes hand is tightly gripped around mine.


    “Did... did you take me to him because. ..because he was once bound?" I whisper as his pace speeds up.


    “Did it make you feel better?”


    “No....1...” I tug my hand free, ande to a halt. I didn’t know how I felt.


    With his rougkingers, he tips my


    chin up, making me look at him. “


    thought itwwould make you feel =>


    better, ktowing you are not the only


    one. And us is a good guy, Ik

    “l.... You were reading my mind and you still left.” Annoyance was creeping in.


    “I was right outside, if us had tried to do something, I would have known.”


    I feel my scowl deepen, “You were testing me?”
