Blood And Silver:Rise of the Alpha’s Rejected Mate
Chapter 121

Chapter 121 DANE Kill him , Aurora said , her lilac eyes deadly serious in her pale , beautiful face .

Right now .

I frowned .

My mind was still completely occupied with Piper , and I couldnt even look at Aurora without a deep , wordless rage rising inside me .

Not since Evelyn had sent me that picture .

The one of Aurora leaving Holdens room .

He was leaning casually on the doorframe , grinning .

She was disheveled but didnt look like she was in that much of a hurry as she walked away.3 Was everything she had told me about him a lie ? When I had caught him about to assault her … was it an act ? I wanted to tear something apart just thinking about it .

I was sick to death of being jerked back and forth when it came to her .

Now isnt the time , I said .

Auroras eyes went round .

But he has- I cut her off .

Well talk about it in private , Aurora .

In a minute .

For now , I need to talk to my sister .

Who does he have ? Piper asked in her weak voice , dragging Chapter 121 my attention back to her .

2/5 I looked down at her .

She didnt seem to have any lasting damage from the blast that had somehow jumped from Auroras cousin to my sister .

When I stepped into the middle of it , it was like stepping into the heart of a thunderstorm .

Theres … a lot you dont know .

I had felt power swirling in me since the ceremony , even if I wasnt certain what it could do yet .

But that … I had never felt power like that .

I didnt like that it had connected my sister to some strange male wolf I barely even knew , from a pack I was allied with but barely trusted .

Whatever it was , it couldnt happen again .

Maybe it had shocked her awake this time , but that much raw power under different circumstances would have killed her .

I wanted Piper moved out of this room .

I wanted her as far away from Evander DeVere as I could get her , and I wanted it to happen as soon as possible .

As if she could read my mind , Piper turned weakly in my arms to look at the blood covered man lying in the bed .

Her eyes went wide at the sight of him .

Whos that ? Auroras cousin , I said brusquely .

Chapter 121 Evander ? Piper breathed .

I didnt like the way she said that name .

Like she knew him .

They didnt know each other .

3/5 Though before the shadows had stolen Piper away into a coma , she had been stationed at Auroras house , where he was .

Maybe the knew each other better than I realized .

I bit back a growl at the thought .

Very few wolves in this world , if any, were good enough for my baby sister .

The man whod failed to keep my children out of the hands of the Reeds was not one of them .

Fortunately or unfortunately Piper was quickly distracted when she looked to the bed on her other side .

Dane … she said in a slow , heavy voice .

Wheres Grandpa Connell ? My throat went tight at the fear in her voice .

When she looked back to me , I met her gaze .

Slowly , I shook my head .

But … he was right here .

The last thing I remember was the earthquake and the house shaking , and then there were shadows everywhere and … She shuddered and gripped my arm , and I wished that I could shelter her from everything I had to tell her now .

There were a lot of people I wanted to protect .

My pack .

My children .

Evelyn , to an extent .

Aurora … goddess damn everything that kept happening to come between us , but I was Chapter 121 still desperate to my bones to protect her .

4/5 But before Aurora , the pack , the kids , there had been Piper .

My baby sister .

My shadow for most of my life .

They all needed me , but she had needed me first .

When our parents died , shed needed me most .

If I could have cut out my own heart to keep her from the pain of our grandfathers death and the uncertainty of everything we were dealing with , I would have in an instant .

But I couldnt .

So the best thing to do was to get it over with , all at once .

Grandfather is dead , Piper .

I remembered his face .

The moment I realized Auroras actions had somehow killed him .

I swallowed against that memory .

Against the pain that photograph Evelyn had sent had lodged beneath my heart .

He didnt survive the coma like you did .

Tears leaked silently down her face .

You look like youve been at war , Dane .

What else has gone wrong while I was asleep ? I looked at Aurora and said , Everything , Piper .

Everything .

She followed my gaze .

When she saw Aurora , her grip tightened on me once again .

Oh , goddess .

I almost forgot .

Dane , theres something about Aurora you have to know .
