63. In a Row

RIC THE DICK. 61

“I want them to feel the pain,” she murmurs, staring ahead. “I want them to feel the pain I was in as they held me against my will!”

“Oh?” I ask.

I don’t trust her fully. Not after she’s been with them… Never underestimate your enemy. 4

We are on the way to the Arden mansion at her request. She thinks as the rightful next Alpha, it’s my duty to be there, for my pack and people.

And of course, I think it’s very important for them to know I am in charge.

I rang ahead, commanding them to secure the place and making it clear Royce is not to step onto Shadow Wolves’ ground.

She’s touching me, but that spark between us has lessened.

It’s strange, but these days I don’t really feel my wolf anymore. 13

An odd wave of regret washes over me, he is – was a part of me, his emotions and mine mixed… Now I wonder if he’s simply closed off or is dying. 1

He fought the powers given to me by Apophis, and I had to shut him down. He wasn’t strong enough for me! I needed more! 7

I look down at Skyla; she is favoured by Bastet, and she will always be my enemy.

Once this is over… I’ll have to find a way to stage her inevitable demise…

Apophis has been silent. I can feel him trying to claw his way into my mind, but this mark has ruined a lot of our plans. Because of this bitch! 6

“Yes, I want you to make me yours…” she says, running her hand up my leg, her eyes full of a hunger that makes me smirk.

“Of course, I plan to,” I say, raking my eyes over her: She’s beautiful… but I hate that I can smell that bastard on her.

My eyes glimmer as she traces her hand over my thigh, stopping inches from my crotch.

“Keep going,” I say quietly.

She smiles as she obeys brushing her fingers ever so lightly over my pants but it’s barely there before she snaps her fingers as if something just occurred to her. 1

“I am ready to worship you, but first…I want an offering.” She says, her eyes glinting. 1

“Oh and what does my queen want?” I ask.

“Royce’s heart in my hands. We will celebrate our victory only then.” She says, her eyes darkening. 1

“Do you really hate him?” I ask, stroking her hair.

Our eyes meet, as much as I’d love to believe that I don’t. 1

She is beautiful… there’s something exotic about her…

I feel a pull towards her, but knowing she wanted to kill me angers me.

Knowing she has been touched by him sickens me.

She’s a used piece of trash, who needs her insides cleaned out. 7

I yank on her hair, and her head snaps back and her gorgeous eyes blaze plum as she looks at me.

“I’m not sure I can trust you.” I muse.

Her aura swirls around her. “I have never felt this much hatred for anyone.” She says her words so venomously that I can feel the hair rise on my arms. “Believe me when I say I hate the fucking blonde cunt with every inch of my fucking body.” She snarls. 9

Her heart is pounding as her eyes burn into mine.

Spoken with true hatred. 2
