Chapter Thirty-six

Elias' POV

I knew that look. I'd seen it a million times in her mother's face. She couldn't believe it. She was torn and lost but did I care? Nope. Just like I didn't care for my own mate. Her mother. I remember everything that happened on the day she run away.

I wrapped my arm around Crystal's throat she clawed at them, her hands partially shifting. I cocked my head. That was impressive. Her long black hair was tied in a bun. She knows I like it down better. Her blue eyes turned to me, lost, sad and broken. For a moment, a second, my heart softened before I hardened it again. She was a wolf. A no good freak of nature hoping to tie me down to her with this little stupid mate bond. I was sure to show her her place. She was only good for my pleasures and for the use of others in the brotherhood. I dropped her to the ground and she coughed and gasped for breath.

"When I say shut up I mean it bitch!" I snarled at her.
