Denied by Destiny: Trapped in the Shadows of the Mate Bond novel Chapter 428

~Josie~

Just a few seconds more…

My hands are painfully tight around his throat, my knuckles white from the strain.

His legs continue to kick out as my vice grip holds firm, taking the life from him.

I ignore the warnings from my wolf as she yells in my head to move, to prepare for the incoming charge of male wolves…but I was almost there.

I was almost there…

They lunge for me, ripping me away from him as a few shift back helping the monster to recover.

It happens all so fast; my hands are pinned behind my back as I am forced to remain knelt on the ground. A foot firmly presses against my lower back, threatening to crack my lower spine.

I was in the middle of a nightmare, a situation not even I knew how I was going to get out of.

Wolves snap their teeth near my face, as the White Moon warriors that shifted back into human form stand behind me, holding me before their alpha.

I glare at him, even as he grips my chin within his hold.

Pain shoots through me as that foot against my lower back presses further down, my back close to breaking, my arms being pulled back.

“Alpha…please…” Abel takes a nervous step forward towards his alpha, pleading in his tone.

I don’t need him to beg for my life, I would never join them.

If they took me, I would spend every second of my life trying to break out of their clutches.

“Spare her…I will…” Abel continues to plead until he is forced to stop. The alpha’s hand rising to demand silence.

“My instructions were clear, infiltrate the pack…get close to the white wolf…” The alpha roars at Abel, his eyes turning a spooky white as his pupils seem to be swallowed up by something else.

Was his wolf forward, is that why his eyes were an eery white.

I’ve never seen anything like it before, I couldn’t look away…it was mesmerising just as much as it was freaky.

“I have, I did everything you asked of me. Please alpha, she will be of use to you.”

“Enough!” The alpha roars back, making Abel take a step back before those eyes fall on me.
