Denied by Destiny: Trapped in the Shadows of the Mate Bond novel Chapter 140

Chapter 0140 

Hector POV 

“Ezra…Ezra talk to me!” As soon as I feel my link to my beta kick in, I push on it with strong force. 

“She’s fine… 

“What happened? I felt a surge through the mate bond. 

“You felt that? Kaia rejected Than.” 

“Than? He’s there?” 

“Not for much longer. If he doesn’t leave soon I think Beckett will serve him to the fish.” Ezra chuckles through the mind–link.

was 

He might think Beckett is all talk and no action…but I don’t. Something still didn’t sit right with me, hiding something and with both girls wrapped up in their admiration for him, Kaia more than Alora, it was hard to make them question their own childhoods. 

Some major information was missing from the most important event of their lives, their births. 

We abandon the cars we arrived to the Shadow Rock pack in, running across fields to the border instead.. 

As soon as we step over the Nightshade Reformed borders, guards start chasing after us. This would need to change, Beckett would need to give me free movement in my own mate’s pack. 

Especially as she seemed in no hurry to leave. I hadn’t even thought about that yet…her coming back to the Dark Phantom pack. 

Her being my Luna. 

Is that something she would consider… 

Jude and I outrun the guards to the alpha house courtyard, where we find Than squaring up to Kaia. Pure fury flooded through me as I enter the scene, his nose all but touching hers as he tries to overshadow her. I immediately pull her back, standing in–between them both, baring my teeth in warning. 

“I knew you wouldn’t be far away…but judging by the guards you aren’t as welcome as you would like–to think.” He scoffs at me, his eyes flashing to that of his wolf. 

“You need to leave!” Kaia demands next to me, trying to push me back so that she can regain her position. This wasn’t me doubting her ability to defend herself, I’ve seen her fight. This was me, not wanting her anywhere near him. 

“I’m not leaving without my mate! Without my Luna. You think I didn’t feel her link to the Amber Desert pack break, you don’t think I would search high and low for her? Trust you to keep her hidden from me.” 

“Last chance boy….if you remain I will kill you.” Beckett snarls out. 

“Alora…” Than looks past my shoulder to Alora, his jaw tense. 

“You need to leave!” She responds, her chest rising and falling too quickly.

“Alora.. 

“Do I need to throw you out?” I seethe out at Than who was only making Alora suffer even more. 

“No nee 

Hector, don’t get your hands dirty…” 

Beckett chuckles before entering a mind–link, moments later warriors walking over preparing to take action. 

“No Beckett please…” She wheezes out, her lungs struggling to breathe. 

“Alora!” Than desperately roars as Alora’s breathing quickens and she collapses to the floor, Kaia catching her in her arms. 

“Alora!” Than roars as he pushes past me rushing towards Alora but I manage to tackle him to the ground, before he reaches them, 

“You bastard….” He growls at me, pushing at my face before landing me a punch to my temple. 

“Ezra, get her out of here.” I order through the mind–link to my Beta. 

We wrestle, pulling punches, Than trying to escape my grasp to get to Alora who was now being carried by Ezra into the Alpha house 

“This way!” Freya tries to help but is pulled back by Than’s beta Zane, leaving Beckett to take Ezra inside with an unconscious Alora, 

“She’s mine!” He roars at me. 

“No….she’s mine!” Kaia’s voice comes up from behind. 

“I won’t let you ruin her like you did me!” 

“Ruin you?” 

“I was pregnant Than…the night your men chased me. The night I left…I was pregnant with your child…” 

“What?” His hands slacken from me as her words sink in. 

“After you forced yourself on me…” She hoarsely whispers. 

“Pregnant…why didn’t you tell me?” 

“Are you serious? You already planned to use me as an unwillingly, unknowing organ donor…you would have taken my baby…” 

“No…”
