Fractured (Josie) novel Chapter 69

Chapter 0069 

I’d say it changes a lot, she just fucking branded us,” Masen hisses and walks away. This is not going how T planned at all. 

“Give him a minute,” Luke says, taking my hand and stopping me when I try to go after him. 

“I think you hurt his pride,” Theo whispers. I turn to look Theo, who is readjusting his towel and I gasp. There on his neck is an angry red scar in the shape of my wolf’s jaw. 

“Oh my god, I’m so sorry,” I cover my mouth with my hand utterly mortified and what I’ve done. 

“Hey, don’t apologise, I’m honoured to wear your mark,” He smiles, and I can tell he is genuine. I look at Axel who wears the same mark, although it’s not as visible with his shirt on. He gives me a nod and smiles proudly. I look at Luke next, who has his shirt off, his mark a stark contrast against his pale skin. 

“I wear it with pride,” he smiles. 

“I should go try and talk to Mason,” I sigh. I need to apologise. Three of my bonds might be happy about this but my fourth is clearly not.

“Yes, you’ve already proven I can’t outrun you so hiding was my only other choice. Now run off back to your bonds before your heat kicks in,” 

“I’m with my bond, who is more than capable of taking care of me if my heat starts,” I smirk and look down at his 

crotch. 

“Let me rephrase that for you. Run off back to the bonds that actually want you, because I don’t,” he smirks back. at me but it’s the dangerous one. The mean one. 

“Really? Because you seemed to want me during my last heat,” I shrug. 

“No, I didn’t. That was my wolf wanting to care for his mate, and look how she repaid him,” he pulls the collar of his leather jacket away, revealing the mark there. “So the next time I am forced by my wolf to participate in sating your heat, just know that it’s against my will,” 

His words hit me like a truck and squeeze my heart. I see the small rise of his lips when he notices my heart rate kick up a notch and he turns to walk away. He thinks he’s convinced me that this is the truth, and he almost did, but he’s forgetting one thing
