Shifted Fate (Amy) novel Chapter 42

Chapter Forty–Two

“Pup?” Loki’s voice was icy as he stared up at me. “What happened to your face? Who did that to you?”

“You did.” I felt my face swell as blood trickled from my eye and nose.

“What?” His voice flashed, and he shook his head. “What’s happening?”

“I would also like to know what the hell is happening. Why was your dad attacking you for Aurora?” Ronnie dropped into a chair and I let my father up.

“I came to see my dad about something I can’t even remember what now, but I heard him talking to someone.” I rubbed my healing face and wiped the blood off. “Then I heard him asking what she was doing, and she said bonding, and something inside me screamed. So I kicked in the door and she was pouring something into his mouth. Then I tackled her and attacked.”

“And then?” Ronnie pointed to my dad, and I nodded.

“He attacked you?” Loki asked.

“Yes.” I nodded again.

“What the hell is going on?”

“Loki, I need the book of shadows.”

“Okay. Give me a moment.” Loki got up and left the room. looked over at Ronnie and he grimaced.

I nodded. “Smart.”

“Well, the safe was clawed at, like someone was trying to get in. I can’t remember if it was your father, and he blocked me. Or someone tried to get in while we were in here.” He shook his head. “I don’t think it is safe for us to have it until this problem is solved.”

I nodded and took the book. “I’ll keep it.”

“Good.” Loki dropped down on to the chair and leaned back “I don’t trust myself around the pack. I need to use

the room.

“The room?” I turned to look at Ronnie, who had paled.

“When your dad feels your mother…with your stepdad, he goes into the room.” Ronnie slowly turned to me.

“It’s a sound proof cell out in the woods.” Loki stared down at me. “Only Ronnie knows where it is and he makes sure I’m okay.”

“Why?” I asked.

“Because I attacked you. I can feel him fighting for control as we speak and I refuse to allow what ever Aurora has down to us put you in danger.” Loki growled out. “Don’t let either of us out until Amy has a solution.”

“You can’t mean that, Loki.”

“I can. And I know your father would feel the same if he was in his right mind.” He cut his eyes to Ronnie. “Walk with me.”

“Okay.”
