Chapter 246
As if I was going to help them. I had made a promise to my Alpha and that promise would be held until the day I die.
“Let me speak to her.” He mutters. “Take your wine, go and have a shower and she can listen to me fucking you all night long.” He glares at me as he says it.
Seriously? It had been so long since I have had sex and they were going to make me listen to their warped ways. Assholes!
Blair struts away, grabbing a wine bottle from the shelf.
“She’s got issues.” I mutter under my breath.
“What do you expect when you are being an ass!”
“You are not the one being held hostage.”
He wraps his hand around the knife handle sticking out of my left leg and yanks it out, sending a spray of blood all over me and him. The wound doesn’t take long to heal and he quickly repeats the processw with the one in my right leg. “That will upset her.” I mutter
“Enough!” He growls at me.
“Why? Why her?”
“Does it matter?” He shrugs his shoulders
“I think I have a right to know if you are going to kill me.”
He pulls a chair and sits directly in front of me and simply mutters, “No you don’t.”
“What happened to you?” I keep my voice low. Blair was probably listening, and I would need to choose my words carefully. “Did you choose her because of Neah? I’m sorry that your life didn’t pan out the way you wanted. I’m sorry a Rogue killed your mate.”
“You lot are the reason she was killed.”
“And now you are fucking one of our kind. An ex Rogue to be exact. Yet that doesn’t bother you. A bit of a turn of events, don’t you think?”
“Sometimes you can’t help who you fall for.”
“Because she looks like Neah.” He could deny it all he wanted, I would never believe him. “She will drag you down, Jenson.”
He rolls his dark eyes at me.
“Let me guess.” I look him up and down. The smart haircut, the smart clothes. “She’s made you promises.”
“I know what she wants.”
“Do you Jenson? Because from what I see, she is playing a game. A game just like all the other Rogues, only hers doesn’t end in a feast of flesh.” I had to make him see sense. “Or maybe it will.”
“She won’t kill me. She loves me.”
He called that love. She was a complete bitch to him. “Jenson, I’ve seen a Rogue kill their own pup. Do you think just because you claimed her, she won’t turn on you?”
He smirks at me. “Why are you really here Mallory? To play a game. What was it you said? ‘Takes one to know one.” He stands up and moves to the window. Peeking around the curtain while looking
up and down the street. “Is he coming?”
“Scared?” I snort
He storms towards me and his hand wraps around my throat. “Is he fucking coming?!”
I shrug my shoulders and it only makes him squeeze harder. But I could see how much she had dragged him down. He was past the point of willing to help me.
“How would I know?!” I croak out and he sends my chair flying backwards. Someones developed a bit of a short temper.
I use the seconds on my back, where he can’t see my face, to link Neah. We had been working on it all morning after I fed her the information from last night’s visit. The ability for me to hold a link with her was weak and neither of us knew why.
I had to try because right now, I could see that I was in over my head. ‘379 Oak street.’
It’s all I get out when my chair is ripped back up. I’m just hoping she heard it. His face inches from mine. “Why haven’t you shifted?”
“I could ask you the same thing.”
“I know you can,” he continues. “I’ve seen it with my own eyes.”
“Do I need to? Because from what I remember, you freaked the fuck out when you saw me. Have you seen Blair’s Lycan?” They had been together for ages, he had too. But he glances away.
“You haven’t?” I was confused. She wasn’t living like a Rogue anymore, I knew she would have trouble fighting the darkness like Damien and Neah but to not shift at all. Something was off.
“Shut up!” He growls.
The make up, the perfect hair. Expensive clothes and shoes that would be ruined by shifting. She killed Salem with a gun and not her bare hands.
“She can’t, can she?”
