636 THE MATE BOND

[BACK OFF!]

Jedrek roared through the mind-link when he watched one of his generals was about to make a sneak attack on Lilac. He didn't need their help to take this girl down. It was between him and her.

However, it remained unclear why he was so forbidding about the idea of them helping him. Whether it was because of his pride that made him so eager and insisting on defeating this girl alone, or was it because of his fear. At the back of his mind, he feared that they would harm her. Because deep down, he knew that they were more than capable of tearing his mate's body apart once this girl ran out of her energy.

Harm her? It could've been his desire if it wasn't because of the stupid mate-bond. But it somehow prevented him from doing so. He couldn't bring himself to do what he was naturally good at. Killing.
