Chapter 68
Kyle sighed and raked his hand through his hair.
“Yes, we did.”
Jason blew out a deep breath.
“Well, that explains that, but Kelsey, how were you able to pull alpha power that way? I’ve been in front of some of the most powerful alphas in history and I’ve never felt anything like that.”
“I have a theory, Dad…”
He nodded for him to continue.
“Kelsey and I, we started bonding before we completed our mating.”
I know I shouldn’t have, but hearing him speak of our mating to his dad made me blush furiously.
“That’s not possible.”
“But Dad.”
“Kyle, it just isn’t possible. I’m sure you had very strong feelings, but bonding takes time, years before even the very beginnings of it begin to blossom.”
I heard Kyle swear in his head and knew his dad wasn’t taking him serious.
“What are the signs of a hond, Mr. Westin? Perhaps feeling your mate’s emotions? Knowing his exact location? How about hearing his every thought and being able to communicate telepathically?”
His eyes widened. “Yes, all of those things. It starts off mild and grows into what you are describing.”
Anger flared in me. We were telling him this was happening and he wasn’t beli
Worse, he seemed to be listening to me more than Kyle.
“Mr. Westin, I get you may not believe me. I’m a nobody.”
“You are not a nobody, babe.” I heard Kyle’s words in my head and turned to glare at him for
distracting me mid rant.
But Kyle is your son. Why would he lie to you? You’ve groomed him his entire life to run this pack. I would think you would trust him with anything.
I felt a hand on my shoulder and I turned to look at Kyle.
“What?” I thought
“Kels. I love that you are riled up and ready to come to my defense, but please, “His eyes were pleading with me, Tm the alpha male here. It’s my job to protect you, my mate. It is my honor to bear. Please don’t take that from me.”
I nodded and took a step back, not cowering behind him but standing tall in support of him.
His father watched our silent transaction in awe.
“It’s true, isn’t it? You really have bonded, fully bonded, so quickly?”
I let Kyle ned and take control of the situation, but his father’s eyes were immediately drawn to me.
“I understand now.”
“What?” We both asked at the same time.
“I didn’t feel it when we spoke the other day. Kelsey, did something happen aside from the obvious, to you this week?”
I looked at Kyle for approval before answering. He nodded and smiled, encouraging me on.
“Like what exactly?”
“It’s really hard to tell. You were quite reserved and I felt no authority in you at our last meeting nor any time before. But now? Now I feel power pouring off of you demanding attention and control And what you did to Vanessa? Even as Pack Mother you shouldn’t have that much power and authority. And she gave allegiance to you right here in my presence.”
Kyle’s sharp intake of breath told me that was a very bad thing.
1 dropped my head in submission and didn’t make eye contact when I spoke.
14 MON, 14 Apr
“Vanessa. She came to the office yesterday. She threatened me. Told me I could never have Kyle, that he was hers. It felt like something snapped inside me and I saw that she was afraid. My wolf rejoiced over it but I had felt bad when she stormed out of my office. I got angry when I saw her here just now. It felt… similar.” I all but whispered.
“Please, sit down, both of you. This is very important and something we mustn’t share with anyone. I mean anyone. Do you both hear me? If you were anyone else Kelsey I’d have you removed from my territory so fast your head would spin, but I could never do that to Kyle and I strongly feel you are no real threat to us, but if the Grand Council ever hears of your existence, it could mean war. They would stop at nothing to destroy you.”
