    Chapter 8 Lycus POV One thing I loved and also hated about the bond was feeling everyone’s emotions


    . I had marked her , and our bond was forged . Sure , she hadn’t marked all of us , but I knew she would


    feel us , so I kind of felt bad . I just stood there . However , I was shocked . Darius had finallye to


    ept her , and I knew he wanted to be with her . We all did . The guilt that washed through me at how


    we had treated her was stomach turning .

    So when her feeling of embarrassment and rejection hit me , it was like Darius had rejected all of us . I


    just don’t understand what happened . ” What the fuck just happened ? ” I asked Kalen after I watched


    her leave in a rush without looking back . Darius had been in a mood for thest day or so since she had


    marked Kalen . He and Tobias had been constantly at each other’s throats , and the dramatics were


    really bothering me . But he might as well as just pped her , teasing her bond out like that only to push


    her way stung even me .


    Kalen makes a strangled noise as her pain rattles through us . ” I have no idea , ” Kalen says with a sigh


    . I watch as he runs a hand through his hair before tugging his shirt on . ” Where are you going ? ” I


    asked him . ” To find her , of course , ” he said , sitting on the edge of the bed and pulling his shoes on . ”


    Just give me a second . I’lle with you , ” I tell him . 11 ” I don’t need a babysitter , Lycus , ” ” Ah ,


    maybe I just want to help find her . She is my mate , too . I said nothing about babysitting you , ” ” I tell


    him . ” Kalen rubs his fingers over his infinity mark , trying to gauge where she is , we should be able to


    find her instantly with one touch , But when he rubbed his thumb over it , all we got was a cold feeling


    running up my arm as he brushed her name etched into his skin . My brows furrow and I look at Kalen .


    Kalen was the only that could hide from the bond .


    He could manipte it , which is precisely how he managed to kill himself repeatedly . Controlling auras


    came in handy but also a nuisance for us over the years when he would go missing because , with it , he


    manipted our thoughts and emotional patterns . Keepers usually harness their mate’s magic , so it


    made me wonder if she was blocking us without knowing it . We searched the entire castle grounds


    when we suddenly got the first flicker of emotion back from her . It had moved us toward Tobias’s


    ssroom . We spent hours looking for her , and I missed two of my sses by canceling them . Moving


    toward where Tobias was teaching , I stuck my head in the doorway .


    Aleera sat at a desk at the back of the room , a pen in her hand , nibbling on the end as she


    concentrated . Tobias watched her curiously as he sat at his desk . Walking in , Kalen goes toward her


    while I make my way to Tobias . ” Care to exin what the fuck happened ? ” Tobias hissed in a hushed


    voice . ” Darius , who else ? How long has she been here for ? ” I asked him . ” About an hour . She


    hasn’t said a word , ” Tobias says . ” I didn’t even know she was in here until I finished casting and


    noticed her sitting at the back . She should be in Darius’s ss , ” he says . ” She portaled ?


    ” I ask , and he shrugs , ncing at her and biting his lip . I looked over at Kalen , who was whispering to


    her before he took her pen from her , scribbling something on the page she was working on . Her brows


    furrow as he exins something to her about wayward casts . ” I have a ss to teach , so either sit in or


    get out , ” Tobias says , and I nce around to see the demons waiting for Tobias to continue . I wander


    to the back , pulling a chair out on her other side . I sit down in it heavily and my hand goes to her knee


    under the table . ” Are you okay ? ” I whisper to her . ” Never better , ” she says , watching as Tobias


    teaches , and I lean back in my chair and peek over at Kalen , who gives her a strange look but says


    nothing as he leans back .


    ” Did she say anything to you about where she went ? ” I mouth to him , and he shakes his head ,


    dropping his hand on the back of her chair and fiddling with her hair while she jotted stuff down in her


    notebook . ” Aleera ? ” Tobias calls to her , and her head snaps up to look at him . He waves her toe


    to the front of the ss , and I sit up straighter , wanting to see what he would get her to do , especially


    since this was an advanced ss ; she wasn’t even supposed to take this ss .


    Her bond flops giddily inside her as she moves closer to him when she suddenly stamps it down so


    abruptly that Tobias gives her a questioning look before he looks over at us . Turning , I looked at Kalen ,


    who was observing her aura . Kalen tilts his head to the side and leans forward curiously , watching her .


    I slide into Aleera’s seat next to him . ” What is it ? ” I whispered , and I saw Tobias nce in our direction


    , so I knew he was listening ; I could also feel Tobias ‘ worry about why she was acting so strange ,


    almost indifferent like nothing happened . ” She forced her bond back , ” he whispers , and I look at her ,


    noticing how Tobias’s jaw clenched and his eyes flickered , Great , whatever is going on with her , we


    have Darius to thank .


    Just when I thought we were getting somewhere . Now we were back to square one . Darius had some


    fucking answering to do . Tobias turns his attention back to her . He asks her to hold out her hand , and a


    devious smile ys on his lips . She does looking up at him curiously with bright eyes , excitement filling


    her at using her magic . As if she was excited to use it , having been deprived for so long , to her , it felt


    freeing that she didn’t have to hide what she was . At least not here , well , until Darius walked into the


    room . She looks over her shoulder at him , and her eyes flicker strangely , turning ssy before she


    swallows and turns her attention back to Tobias . Her embarrassment came back and zapped through


    the bond before it turns to anger .


    She stamped it down , blocking us back out . Darius leaned on the doorframe with his arms folded


    staring at her . Everyone in the room watched him as his intimidating aura filled the room . He


    commanded attention without even trying , and right now , whatever was going on with him , he


    appeared to be angry with Aleera for ignoring his presence . But Aleera looked just as angry making me


    worry with the determined glint in her eyes .
