“Lana… he…I will” Tate stutters stepping toward me with his arms out.
“Please don’t touch me” I tell him stepping back away from him, as I try hold all my pieces together.
“Lana I am so” My sister says.
“Don’t, just fucking don’t Arial” I snap at her. I walk towards the door, stepping outside. The wind whipping my skin, yet I don’t feel the harshness or the cold of it seeping into me, nothing was colder than the feeling inside me. Nothing could repair the damage of what he did.
Chapter41
Tate’s POV
I watched her walk out the door, I could feel her pain. All she had to do was wait it out, it would have eased off but instead she accepted it. I couldn’t believe it when those words left either of their lips. Leaving me stuck in the middle, if only he marked her, he wouldn’t have been able to reject her. His feelings were torn, he honestly didn’t expect her to accept it. I could hear Titus howling in his head.
Both of them filled with anguish and I could feel both of them, I was left tied to both of them. One I waited for, for eleven years the other I just got her, got to keep her only for her to rip herself away now.
“I’m sorry I didn’t think” Arial’s soft voice hits my ears. I had forgotten she was here completely consumed with the feelings through the bond and my own. Where does this leave me now?
“No, you didn’t think, Drake would have handled it. You killed his father you expect him to be okay with it and now you have destroyed your sister, destroyed us all”
“But everything will be fine now, Drake is Alpha he is next in line you can all be together now” She says, she looked pained, and I could tell the wolfsbane had taken a toll on her, feel it still coursing through Lana’s veins though she couldn’t feel it, only consumed with the pain that is suffocating her slowly.
“Drake would have challenged his father if he didn’t step down, you just made him look weak, you know what that looks like to a Pack, that some spoilt brat came in and took his father out for him?”
“I just wanted my mate, I was trying to help”
“All you helped with was destroying my mates, destroying your own sister” How does she not see this?
Chase suddenly rushes out Drake having freed him from where ever he was being held. He looks to me before looking to his mate and rushing to her side.
“Get her out of here and take her home” I tell Chase. He looks at Arial before noticing his father on the ground.
“Shit I better check on mum, Drake finally killed the bastard” He says.
“No, your fucking mate did” I tell him and his eyes dart to her. He steps back away from her.
“What? You overstepped Drake? Arial that wasn’t your place” He says to her not even hiding his anger from her.
“I was trying to help” she defends herself.
“No wonder Drake was so pissed off when he got us out” He looks around the room.
“Where is Lana?” He asks looking to me.
“Drake rejected her because of your mate” I tell him before turning on my heel and walking down the hall to find him. I could hear banging in the back room, things being trashed and thrown about. Hear his brothers trying to calm him down.
“Drake what’s going on, just calm down” I hear Mason tell him. Opening the door, I walk in the entire room in disarray. The office completely destroyed.
Mason and Tyler noticing me, look to me before rushing out and letting me deal with him.
“Drake?” I call to him.
“She accepted, she fucking accepted. Why did I say it. I …” He breaks down crumbling to the floor his head in hands. Her mark now gone from his neck and I could tell he had been scratching at it, like it pained him.
“I didn’t mean to, I didn’t mean to” He says rocking back and forth.
“Just let me speak to her, we can fix it. You just need to mark each other again”
“I should have marked her when she first come here, I wouldn’t have been able to reject her then. I was so angry I didn’t”- He doesn’t finish.
