Chapter 11 ❥ Redeemed

Tressandra

I squeeze my lips shut, not quite knowing what to say when Rick fights Alpha Veiler in a verbal battle. I just stay quiet. Veiler wants to send me home with my family after all that's happened to us. My father and sister are dead, and he says I should be at home with my family where I belong. I agree with that.

Rick disagrees. He wants us to have a private place of our own. I also agree with that, a lot. I'm afraid to be out of his sight. He might disappear.

He holds me tightly in his arms as he walks. I'm high off the ground, and I clutch at his neck with everything I have. I'm not used to being toted around, but something tells me I'm going to have to get used to this because this won't be the last time it happens. With the way my mate is acting, I know I'll be dealing with his protective nature.

"She belongs with me. I'm her mate."

Veiler sighs, holding back fury as he tries to catch up with my ruthless mate.
