Betrayed by Blood, Claimed by the Alpha
โP-please let me go..โ I stammered and before I knew it, I was word vomiting while crying. โโI wonโt return. You wonโt ever see me again. I know you donโt want me as a mate. You hate me, so please let me go.โ I cried out.
Cainโs jaw tightened with each word that left my lips โWhat gave you the idea that you have the power to choose what you want?โ His voice was low, โYou donโt get to decide what, how, and when you leave. Only I get to do that. You donโt get to leave me, you donโt get to run! You only leave when I want you to.โ
"I didnโt ask for this,โ I whispered, trembling. โI didnโt ask to be your mate.โ
Cain stepped back, โNeither did I,โ he muttered under his breath. โBut the bond doesnโt give us a choice, does it?โ
