Denied by Destiny: Trapped in the Shadows of the Mate Bond novel Chapter 561

“Your Luna? Are you fucked up in the head?” Jaxon responds as Jace seethes by his side. Trying to keep his wolf contained.

“Cleo is my luna, the pack’s luna…and the child..”

Than stops, an almight roar bellowing out of Jace, a smirk forming across his face before he continues.

“…will be my heir.”

Jace’s wolf is on the precipice of taking control, of seeking out blood.

“First you abuse my mother, and now you take my mate as your own…I don’t think so.” He’s rumble is low, predatory…inhuman.

“There is nothing you can do…”

“She is the rightful luna of the Clear Waters pack.”

“She is now the luna of the Amber Desrt pack, it cannot be undone. Even if I die…Cleo will remain the luna…her child…”

“My child.” Jace takes a swing at Than, reminding me that Than is slower…he is a similar age to Dad…and his reflexes confirm as such.

He’s slow in comparison to the alpha son of the White Wolf and Dark Phantom leader.

I am knocked backwards trying to dodge the sudden movement but I needed not bother, Jace catches me with ease in his arms….arms that pull me away from another alpha and only into his.

Than’s jaw tenses…spitting out blood as he stares at me, now wrapped in Jace’s arms.

My back pressing against his brick built chest…this is all I ever wanted to be.

But that was the old me…not the new me.

“Your child is the heir to the Amber Desert pack. Like I said…it cannot…and will not be undone.” Than roars out impatiently.

“And if you die?”

“It can not be undone.”

“And if you die?” Jace yells out.

“Then Cleo here remains the luna…she cannot leave this pack…ever.”

“Then I’ll burn this pack to the ground. Then it won’t need an heir.” Jace threatens.

“That would be one way of solving this predicament you have found yourself in.” Than

deviously smirks out, his mind already spinning a new plan that will no doubt already be including me. I am forever to be tangled up in his web of lies too.

No..no more. My baby is not a pawn. Not for any of them.

“You need to leave.” It takes all my strength to do so, but I manage to push my body out of Jace’s hold.
