The Blessed And The Beast

Chapter 35 (Tobias’s P.O.V.)

Never in my life had my d*ic*k gone limp as quickly as when I was staring at the bones of an amputated leg. Until that moment, I had thought Joselin could keep me painfully hard forever. I had been hiding how she affected me for years. Now that I no longer had to, I wanted to take full advantage of the situation.

She was my mate. Mine.

I could f*uc*k her and love her anywhere, and I planned on it. Seeing how hot and bothered she got over the thought of f*uc*king here only confirmed that when we got home, there would be a few places around the castle that I could pull her away to without any complaint from her. I t was even better than claiming her in front of others.

Sneaking around and enjoying each other was higher on my list than exhibitionism. At the top of the list was having Joselin all to myself in our bed.

I still needed to help her gather her belongings and move in. But even if that didn’t happen immediately, I would still consider it our house and bed.

But a f*uc*king leg. I had seen worse, done worse than cutting off someone’s leg, but never had I expected to find one in someone’s bedroom. It was disturbing.

Rona was a twisted soul, but I never pegged her as the kind of woman who would fall asleep only a few feet from the amputated limb of one of her coworkers. “We need to get back,” Joselin muttered, her mind going a mile a minute. She left the leg behind, straightened the blanket o n the bed, and pulled her pants back on. When she approached me to teleport, I gently tapped my finger on her head, silently asking what was going through her mind.

This was what she had wanted, to find proof of foul play, but it raised more questions than answers.

“It doesn’t make sense. No blood is left, and the bone marrow is dried out and won’t work. I don’t know what Rona is doing with it, but she is up to something. This confirms it.” Joselin said, her long white hair flowing down her back as the lines on her skin vibrated with agitation.

I would keep a close eye on the older woman. She was pretty civil unless she was around Rona, which made them both hostile.

“Do you think she is controlling Cora somehow or draining her magic?” I asked as Joselin wrapped her arms around my waist and pressed her h*ips against mine i n a sweet hold. There was nothing s*e*xual about it, but I still adored it.

It surprised me that she didn’t just walk right in. Never before had I seen her wait for someone to announce that she could enter. She walked these halls as if she owned them, and she did. She could make anyone bend to her will, and I knew that was one of the reasons why she found
