Chapter 65

Lex’s POV

Delilah stands in front of me, "Kas, please, I know it sounds cruel, but hear her out."

She’s a sweet girl and all, but a little naive right now.

"No," I state simply.

She takes half a step back when she hears my deeper voice coming from Kas’s petite human form.Her eyes turn a deeper shade of blue and I can smell fear coming off of her.She should be scared.

Delilah is supposed to be Kas’s best friend.

She let them waltz Amari in here just to tell Kas all this bullshit.

Lady Camille stands up next.

I presumably to talk sense into me, "Elexis, please-"

Okay, now I’m getting mad.Why are they doing this to Kas? They are supposed to love her.This isn’t love.This is manipulation.

"I said NO!"

I curl Kas’s fingers into a fist, willing her energy and stopping time for all three women.I look at them, satisfied that they won't be able to stop me when I walk out the door.

"Lex, did you know all that? Did you know about everything Amari just told us," Kas asks in my mind as I stride down the hall to the weight room.

I whimper when I feel her sadness and pain.

"I didn’t know they were spying on us, Kas, and I didn’t know they intentionally left you at Silver Moon. I swear.I knew about their abilities and our abilities, but I wasn’t allowed to talk about it," I tell her truthfully.

Her emotions become very complicated.

Why do humans have to make everything so complex?

"Lex, are we able to cure Ashley’s blood?" her voice doesn't sound confident.

I don’t want to lie to her, but I don’t want her to give up hope either.

Before we can worry about it, I have things to take care of.

"There's one way to find out, but we have something to do first, Kas.Just go hang tight for a bit, I don’t want you to see this," I say.

I block her before she’s able to ask what.I take Kas’s body down the hall to the weight room.I’m tempted to shift, but I know that would only cause more problems right now.I throw open the door and approach Bronx.

He stands up from the bench he is sitting on and smiles.His smile quickly disappears when he sees Kas’s eyes are black.
