Denied by Destiny: Trapped in the Shadows of the Mate Bond novel Chapter 258

~Knox~

Closing the door, I take in a much needed intake of air…holding my breath had been the only way to control myself in such close proximity to the alpha’s daughter.

Jaxon and Jace hadn’t mentioned a sister…

From the moment she walked into their house this morning, all I can think about is the fiery red head.

My hands remain tightly clasped around the door handle, as figures rush past me…the alarms loudly sounding and flashing lights putting me on edge. This pack hadn’t been attacked in years, so why now.

The hospital was large, one of the biggest I have ever seen in a pack..not that I visited many packs. This was the first time in a long time, I had returned from alpha training with some of my own students.

I prepare to check in on Alpha Hector when my hand that was still tightly gripped around the door handle of the storage cupboard is pulled, the door swinging open and my body moving with it.

The fiery red head rolling her eyes at me as I collide into her.

“It’s just a routine exercise. Move!” She orders at me, her feistiness doing nothing to quell that rising fire igniting within me. Her blatant disregard for my orders angering me in a way I hadn’t felt in years. No one disregarded my orders.

“Look Princess, when I give orders I expect them to be followed.”

“Princess? You’ve got your wires crossed handsome!” She tuts at me, before barging past me and joining the figures running down the corridor. I follow her to find her communicating with a doctor, Alpha Hector also there, watching his daughter intently.

She seems to have no issues following the doctor’s orders as she is sent out of the ward.
