Blood And Silver:Rise of the Alpha’s Rejected Mate
Chapter 112

Chapter 112 DANE My lips hovered over hers , but she didnt melt into me .

She didnt relax .

I had a feeling if I kissed her , she would let me .

But I didnt know if she would kiss me back .

The uncertainty felt like a wall between us when there hadnt been one before Holden stole her from me .

I let my lips hover over hers a moment longer , hoping that she would complete the kiss .

She didnt .

So , I pulled back .

Aurora wouldnt say what Holden had done .

But she was wrong about what shed said .

I didnt have to know what hed done to know I was going to kill him .

Pack war or not , the next time I saw him would be his death .

Danc ? Aurora asked .

There was something hesitant in her voice .

Something that expected me to lash out .

Something that expected pain .

2/5 Chapter 112 Your body is yours , Aurora .

Do you think rejection is so rare for me that I cant tell when a woman doesnt want to kiss me ? Rejection was extremely rare for me if I was being honest .

In fact , I dont know if I had ever been rejected in my life .

That didnt mean I was an idiot .

Aurora lowered her gaze .

I just … Her breath caught .

Its better we dont .

Anger seared through me as I watched her with this new carefulness , this new fear , and I thought of Holden again .

I wanted to kill something , but I had nothing to kill .

Only a woman in front of me I would burn the world for and nowhere to put my rage .

Violence beat through me with every pounding heartbeat , but I had to contain it .

Wrap it tightly .

Store it away .

Maybe if I showed how the events of the last weeks made my blood boil , she would comfort me .

Soften my own feelings for me .

But my emotions were my own to control .

My own to channel into something I could actually use .

In this moment , she didnt need my violence .

She needed another kind of strength .

One I rarely used .

But since shed come back into my life and brought the twins , it was one I needed to master more and more .

Gentleness .

This woman had been through hell , and now she was frozen Chapter 112 around me .

I could believe it was because she had suddenly decided while in Holdens company that she didnt want me anymore when she so clearly had before .

Or I could believe what made more sense : that she was tramatized and terrified and just needed space .

3/5 I moved my hand from her chin to her cheek , ruffling her hair as I pressed my palm there , then settled my forehead against hers .

me start with this : I want you .

I am fucking desperate for you .

But youre right .

Its better if we dont .

It is ? she looked up at me .

Her lilac eyes were already lined with red , and now tears threatened to spill again .

I mean … of course it is .

I didnt think you would agree this easily .

I thought youd be upset .

Im not upset .

How could you not want space after what he did ? Her eyes widened in surprise , and she swallowed involuntarily .

Its not because he … because he … She coughed a little and pressed her lips together tightly .

Dane … you arent making this any easier .

Her words struck me .

Thats all I want to do .

Make this easier for you .

She looked away .

I know .

Thats the problem .

But I cant … I cant explain .

Please , take me home .

I want to hear whats been done to find Seraphina and Tristan .

Chapter 112 ***** AURORA 4/5 Dane Montague had changed .

Once upon a time , even rejecting his kiss would have made .

him cold toward me .

How could I push him away if he was so determined to be understanding ? I pressed my head into his back as he once again carried me toward home .

I think hed meant to make love to me next to the river , under the moonlight .

I think he had wanted to reconnect .

I desperately wanted that , as well .

But now every kiss , every touch was tainted by Holdens commands .

Even if Dane was the best man in the world no , because he was the best man in the world I still had to find a way to get him to end this .

I wasnt giving up .

EVELYN I made my way back toward the pack house .

Dane told me to wait where Archer was going to meet me .

I didnt care .

I forged ahead toward Blue Ridge on my own , knowing Dane was probably fucking Auroras brains out behind me .

Chapter 112 Good for him , I guess .

But who was I without Dane Montague ? In the moment Id almost drowned , I wasnt sure .

5/5 Could I find out? I had this new power .

The goddess favored me .

Maybe there was more for me out there than the life I always sought .

Maybe I could change .

Maybe I could make a new life for me , and for this child .

Not because an Alpha loved me , but because of myself .

Just as I had the thought , darkness washed over me .

A voice whispered through my mind .

One I knew .

My mother .

Evie , dear , now that Danes children are out of the way , I have a proposition for you .

One that will bind him to you forever .

Youll have to get your hands dirty , but its guaranteed to work .

All your dreams will come true forever .

Are you interested ? All the thoughts Id had wavered in an instant , and without thinking I answered , Yes .

Tell me what I have to do .
