Rejected, Abused, I Fall for the Forbidden Alpha (by Riley Scott) novel Chapter 106

Chapter 106

Raven POV

“Goddamnit, this is my fault. I should have fucking had more men watching her. I should have expected something like this to happen!” he breathed, slamming his hand into the wall again and again, chunks of plaster scattering to the floor.

I turn my head. He hasn’t realized that I’m awake. Aēress puts a gentle hand on his shoulder.

“You couldn’t have known. Raven’s fine, Damien. She just needs time to…” she trailed off, shrugging helplessly.

Damien looks as though he’s about to rip everything in the room apart. He’s more than angry. He’s furious.

Luckily, it’s not with me but with himself. Still, I feel a pang in my chest. He has nothing to be sorry for. Nobody could have anticipated this.

“Recover,” I rasp, and they turn, both of their eyes widening in shock.

“Holy shit. Thank God,” Damien breathed, moving closer and taking one of my hands, “how do you feel?” he asked in concern.

“Better,” I said wryly, “like somebody donated blood?” I questioned sweetly as Damien flushed and nodded tightly.

“You needed it. Your body looked like you went through several rounds in a boxing ring,” he muttered, “and then some. At least you came out the victor,” his eyes brightened.

I laughed, sitting slowly upright as he hurried to help me. Aeress’s eyes are twinkling.

“He and Hades almost came to blows,” she said, shaking her head and tsking as Damien grunted in displeasure, ” your room almost turned into a fighting arena.”

Naturally. It seemed as though Damien and Hades didn’t like each other. Maybe they were each conflicted when it came to their feelings about me?

“You fought with Hades?” I said, bewildered as Damien sat down and let go of my hand, crossing his arms against his chest, “Why?”
