CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED & FIFTY ONE

Jason’s POV

I woke to a sharp pain behind my eyes and pain in my back. The sunlight that slipped through the curtains made my head throb. I realized I was on the floor, and I didn’t know how I got back to my room.

My memories came back slowly as I brushed my teeth. I remember begging Talia to take me back. Then, Nolan choked me. I could see the bruises on my neck were slowly healing.

There was a knock at my door.

“Alpha Jason?” Henry said as he entered.

“Yeah,” I said, sitting up slowly. “Come in.”

“You look terrible,” he said.

“You always know how to brighten a day,” I muttered, rubbing my temples.

“How much did you drink?”

“Enough to regret my decisions,” I groaned. “What’s going on? Why are you here so early?”

“It’s 2pm.” Henry crossed the room and placed a folded note on the table. “Your father left for Shadowclaw before dawn. He told me to remind you of your purpose here.”

I grunted. “Let me guess. Win Talia back.”.

“Yes. He expects you to make sure she marries you,” Henry said.

“Of course he does.” I leaned back, the headache pulsing again. “Does he ever get tired of giving orders?”

“Never,” Henry said as he reached into his jacket and handed me a small, wrapped package. “He also told me to give you this.”

I frowned and tore open the paper. Inside was a small glass vial filled with pale green liquid. A faint scent came from the vial. It was sweet but it made me slightly dizzy.

“Careful,” Henry said quickly. He took the vial and placed it on the table. “You don’t want to breathe that in.”

“What is it?” I asked.

“It’s called Moonlust,” he checked and finally said.

“I’ve heard of that before,” I said, “Isn’t it a banned aphrodisiac? Why would my father give me this?”

“Yes, it’s an old herb mixture used by healers generations ago,” Henry explained. “A few drops can trigger heat in a she-wolf.”

I stared at him. “And my father sent this to me?”

“He did,” Henry said. “He said it would help.”

I looked at the vial again. “Help how?”

“If Talia drank even a small amount, she would be more compliant. You mark her while it was in her system, the mate bond could return,” Henry said. “Permanently,”

I sat there, staring at the glass with a smile, “Then, she would stop being angry with me.”

The bond would no longer be vacant from my mind. I would feel whole again. Talia would no longer be resentful. Our bond would be solid. The competition would end there. Colin’s patient smiles erased, and Nolan’s dark looks would be meaningless.

Henry shook his head and said, “You’re forgetting that she hated you. So, I’m afraid-”

“Can’t you not kill joy for one second?” I groaned.

“I’m serious, Jason. If she found out you drugged her, she…”

“She won’t,” 1 interrupted him. “Once the bond is back, she’ll understand.”

“Understand what?” Henry asked. “That you used a banned herb to take away her choice?”

“She loved me once,” I said quietly. “She still does. I just know it.”

Henry exhaled. “Jason, that isn’t love. It’s guilt and pride. If you use this, she will never forgive you.”

“Shut up. You don’t know that.”

“I do,” he said. “She doesn’t forgive deceit. You would be no different from Viki.”

The accusation stung and I growled, “Watch what you say. I’m nothing like that bitch.”

“How is what you’re planning not any different from Viki? You’re using deceit to get what you want,” Henry argued.

‘He has a point. It would be hypocritical of you to do this to our mate,’ my wolf muttered.

‘Don’t tell me you’re against me too,’ I responded.

‘I want her back as much as you do, but not like this,’ my wolf said.
