Chapter 116

50 No More Mark

Selma POV

After we discussed everything that happened Luna Amelia showed me to a room across from Bryson. I could tell that Cayden doesn’t trust Bryson completely, but in my heart, I know he is nothing like the others. I head into the bathroom and I stand in front of the mirror. I run my fingers over the forced mark on my neck. I know that Theo was right and Bryson recognizes that I am his beloved but what happens now. I bare his brother’s mark. A tear slides down my cheek and I brush it away. I need to focus on making sure my uncle and Bryer pay for what they have done to all of us. I step into the shower and let the spray wash over me. I try to reach my magic but it’s like my power are inside a bubble that I can’t pop. After a few tries I give up for now. I step out and dry before putting on pajamas that Lily gave me. I climb into bed even though I’m sure I won’t be able to sleep with all that is running through my mind. A knock sounds on the door and I open it to find Bryson smiling at me. My stomach flips before I notice his eyes fall to the mark on my neck. “I’m so sorry Selma. I should have stood up to my father and brother.” I step back inviting him into my room. We need to talk about everything anyway.

lap and bury my head in his chest. “Selma”, his name on my lips brings me out of my thoughts. He smiles like he knows what I’m thinking about. “‘Bryson, you helped me when it mattered most. I know what it is to have someone who is supposed to have your best interest at heart use you for their own selfish needs. I don’t need you to be sorry. I’m sure we have both done things we aren’t proud of in our family’s name. What matters to me is what you plan to do now?” He stands and walks toward me. He places his hand against my cheek and I lean my face into his touch. “I plan to stand with my beloved no matter who it is against.” Another knock sounds on the door and I stand to open it. Pheobe and Lily smile when they see Bryson standing behind me. “I think it’s time we set things right and remove that forced mark from your neck”, Lily says. “The only reason this is possible is because it was done without your consent, otherwise it would require black magic. A mate’s mark is sacred and since he wasn’t your true mate, we can erase it like it never happened” Pheobe says, and I can’t help the smile on my face. I was worried that I would

Lily and Pheobe come to stand over me and as they begin to chant, I brace myself for the pain. Their chanting gets louder just as the pain hits. I feel like I’m being burned from the inside out. After a few minutes, the burning stops

Bryson POV

I swear to the goddess I had no idea he was going to mark her by force. I know he is ba**ard but that is a new low for even him. As soon as we make it back to the pack, I expect them to throw me in the cells. Selma is the only reason that didn’t happen. I still can’t believe that she is my beloved. He marked my beloved. I knew the moment I looked into her eyes that she was mine even if I don’t deserve her. When they showed me to my room I couldn’t stop pacing. I need her to know how sorry I am and pray she truly forgives me. As we talk her words

goddess that she helps Selma. The first scream from her lips makes my chest ache. She arches off the bed and I have never felt so helpless in all my life. It feels like a lifetime before the chanting stops and Selma passes out. I look at the witches and I see sympathy in their eyes. “It has taken a toll on her but she should wake up soon.” I look at her marking spot and though the mark is still there, it is definitely lighter. “It will take a day or so to completely fade” the witch she called Lily says. “Stay with her your presence will help her heal” the blonde woman says and winks at me. Do they know who I am to her?” “Only a true mate would have such love and fear in his eyes”, Lily says before they leave, closing the door behind them. I don’t even think. I just slide into bed next to her and pull her close to my side. I say one final

She is strong just like her brother.” I smile, goddess I love this woman. “Come on, let’s get some sleep so we can get my sister-in-law back home.” I slide in next to her and pull her back to my front. My lids are getting heavy when I get a link from the patrol guard that my sister just crossed the border. “Is she alone?” “Yes, Alpha. She doesn’t seem hurt but she is barely on her feet.” “I am on my way.” I rush from bed and tell Calliope what’s happening. “Be safe, it doesn’t make sense they would just let her go. It may be
