Her Forbidden Alpha

Chapter34　A Bond Without Blood

Shock filled Indigo as she stared at her stepbrother. His words resonating in her head, everything seemed heightened. Her breathing quickened, the loud thumping rang in her ears as she ran a hand through her short black hair. Her shocked expression slowly turned to one of anger.

“You two are step-siblings… and have been so for the last 8 years… This is disgusting and messed up! It’s so wrong!” Indigo shouted glaring at him, this was the first time she had raised her voice at him, the first time to argue with him.

“I know we are but our parents shouldn’t have been together, they weren’t fated mates.” Elijah growled. His wolf annoyed at her speaking disrespectfully towards him. Something that had never bothered him when it came to Scarlett being disobedient.

“No, they weren’t, but neither are you and Scarlett so how can you two be so selfish!? They beat you to it and are together, this could tear them apart in so many ways. It could hurt them, ruin their reputation and what about the pack? What will they think of this incestuous relationship?” Indigo said trembling, feeling his Alpha power cloaking them. She could sense his anger and annoyance, she was scared but she knew he would never hurt her. Doing her best to stay strong, she watched him trying to reign it in.

Elijah looked at her, she had a point even if it was not one he wanted to admit. How could he blame his father for choosing Jessica when he himself didn’t believe or care for the mate bond?

“You’re not wrong… but I love her and I’m making her my Luna. To hell with what the pack or anyone thinks.” He said coldly.

“You will? What about when your fated mate comes in front of you? Will you break Scarlett’s heart too? And what about her mate? Do you think she’d choose you over him?” Indigo said feeling teary. She hated crying but she hated feeling like this even more. The two were messing with the very boundary of their family. Her safe place.

“I will reject my mate.” He said with confidence, but he did not know about Scarlett. He also knew she needed the mark removed too… Would he let her go? Just the thought of it made his heart clench.

Although she was taller than Scarlett to him, she was still the little one. “I’ll always be your big brother pixie, I’ve always seen you as my kid sister. I never saw Scarlett as my sister, not even when dad first got married to Jessica. I
