    "Is that a threat?" Dane cocks an eyebrow at her.


    "I just mean..."


    *Can you stop lying?" Damien mutters. "Is it even possible? Do you not understand that Dane would be ringing for Ryan. No one else."


    *Alpha Ss will know it''s me. I''m the only one that has ever made it this far. I''m sure they are still looking."


    Damien shakes his head and gets to his feet. He looks at me and shakes his head. "I can''t do this anymore." He turns to Eris, "I, Damien ck, Beta of ck Shadow, reject you, Eris Neoma of Nightfall Pack as my mate." He spits the wordsN?velDrama.Org ? 2024.


    "No." she stands her ground. If she was hurting, she wasn''t showing it.


    "ept." Damien demands. Being here was so ufortable. I nced at Dane and I knew he was feeling exactly the same.


    Tears flood her eyes as she clutches her chest. "I can''t."


    "Yes you can, say it!"


    "I can''t."


    "Why?" Damien snaps.


    "Because you don''t mean it. You''re angry with me because I didn''t handle things well. Don''t reject me because of that. Give me a chance." She begs


    I watch him pinch the bridge of his nose. "You don''t even want to be here. You keep asking to leave so ept the rejection and be on your way."


    "You are supposed to protect me." she frowns.Content belong to N?velDráma. Org.


    *And I''m also supposed to like my mate! Normally I am willing to give people a chance to a certain degree, but you are impossible."


    "I''m impossible? What the fuck does that mean?" She asks wide eyed


    I quietly watch Dane tapping into a phone, neither Damien or Eris are aware as Damien tries to force her to ept the rejection. A few seconds pass and the phone beeps.


    "Ryan is alive." Dane confirms. "Ashburn city is still going strong."


    Eris''s eyes are like saucers. She managed to stop Dane from ringing, but that hadn''t stopped him from sending a message.


    Damien rubs his temples. "Are you some sort ofpulsive liar? Do you even know what the word ''truth'' means?" "Why would you continue to lie?" I ask


    Her golden eyes move to Damien like she was expecting him to bail her out, but if anything, he was even more pissed off. He sort of reminded me of a cartoon Raven had shown me, where smokees out of their ears.


    *Do you even know Alpha Ss?" Dane asks


    She looks to the floor


    "Answer me!" Danes voice booms, making her jump


    *Cooper told me about him." she whispers


    "Cooper? Why would he tell you about him?"


    She shrugs her shoulders, "Alpha Ss is rted to you, isn''t he?" Eris asks, "Cooper told me about the eyes. When I saw yours I knew you must be rted somehow, it''s such an odd colour. He told me a lot of stories about a crimson eyed man and his pack of animals."


    "Did Cooper know him?"


    She shrugs her shoulders


    *And Ashburn city?" I press


    "I don''t know, just a name Cooper gave me."


    "You''ve never met him?" Dane asks in confusion.


    She slowly shakes her head


    *You said you were his prisoner? Samara found you tied up." Damien mutters


    "He kept me safe." She smiles like a mad woman


    ''He''s dead and he is still somehow fucking with us.'' Nyx tells me what everyone else is likely thinking


    "Where are you really from?" I demand


    "A ce called White Cliffs. It''s far away from here." Her eyes grow even wider. She had slipped and Damien could now reject her.


    "I, Damien ck, Beta of ck Shadow, reject you, Eris Neoma of White Cliffs as my mate." He states it again, desperate to break the connection with her.


    She felt it this time. I see it in her eyes. Pain, anger, confusion. She clutches her chest differently, like she thought her heart was going to jump out of her chest. She fights back the tears and hunches forward.


    "Say it." Damien demands and for a brief moment, I hear Kyle, demanding me to ept his rejection.


    "Are you going to kill me?" Eris begs


    "ept my rejection!"


    Her breathing is heavy as she stares back at him.


    "You are apulsive liar, Eris. Not a single word out of your mouth can be trusted."


    She lowers her eyes and whimpers. "I, Eris Neoma, ept your rejection, Damien ck, Beta of ck Shadow." She falls forward from the chair, curling up in a ball on the floor as she cries in pain. Damien stares down at her before leaving the room.


    ''Should we kill her? Dane asks through mindlink


    I shake my head. What she is feeling, that won''t go away. Not for a long time. Let her leave.''
