Kindle Notes & Highlights
Jordan stumbled toward me too, with the same shocked and horrified expression on his face that was probably on mine. He broke my gaze, glancing back at his father with a grimace like he was physically pained by what was happening. He tried to resist the pull as much as I did, but the call was too strong. We took longer to get to each other than any other mated pair had, both fighting every single step. Even with the resistance, we stood before each other in a matter of moments. Only inches away, both of us breathing heavily, our eyes locked together.
With a snarl, he ripped my father's throat out with his fangs. Blood sprayed, landing on me, and I let out the scream I’d been holding back for far too long. It happened so fast, Dad didn't even have time to shift or use his crab armor. Then Dixon tore apart my father in front of me.
My chest tightened and a ragged cry escaped me as half a dozen Scorpio shifters converged on him at once, burying him under a sea of fur and fangs. I let out another broken scream as he fell beneath them, snarling all the way down. "No!" I tried to rush forward to save him, even though it would probably mean my death too.
Kaden pushed away from the bars and walked to the door. “I thought you’d want revenge on the Leo pack for what they’ve done to you.” He stopped and glanced back over his shoulder. "I can give that to you. No one else will have the guts to stand against them. Think about it. It’s the only offer you’ll get from me.”
i mean, why the fuck not?. i say use me as bait, put me in the front line. what the fuck ever. someone kills my brother and I'll be getting them back.
“The curse that makes shifters go mad at the full moon?” I asked slowly. “The Sun Witches have to bless us at birth to make sure that won’t happen.” The confusion became a full-on frown. “That sounds like some sort of fairy-tale. Who’s telling you these sorts of things?” "It's what we're taught our entire lives," I said, my voice a little shaky. "The Sun Witches bless us as babies, and then they unlock our wolves and help us find our mates when we turn twenty-two."
yeah the blessing is totally the Witches locking the wolves then the ceremony is them reunlocking the wolves. the stupid Witches are probably also forcing msting bonds and that's why she mated to the leo guy instead of her obvious mate.
I remembered someone saying that the reason for the mating bond was for procreation, to keep shifters strong and their blood pure. They’d definitely use it against us, I thought darkly. Anger filled me. People should be able to love who they wanted to, not be forced to love whoever the spell chose. And if this was true, then it meant my bond with Jordan might not be real either.
“We call them hugs, Kaden,” I said. “They’re used to show gratitude among people who aren’t emotionally stunted.”
"Little wolf, you were never broken, only beaten and bruised. All you needed was someone to believe in you."
