Betrothed

Chapter 34: Thoughtless

Brayden

I felt this heightened mood sweep over me as I took in my mate who was tightly wrapped around my body as I stood there supporting us both.

Our lips landed on each other in a desperate passion.

I smelt Arashnic's musk as soon as the wind sent gusts around us. I knew that Willow smelt it too because she pulled away from me. I was irritated that I had to share my true mate with another male let alone him coming in interrupting our bonding moment. I was not going to push her too far. I would never hurt my queen, my mate. I wouldn't, would I?

My inner wolf refused to back down away from our mate so when she jerked towards Arashnic, who was now bolting towards us like a rocket being shot from a cannon he was set on a mission, I grabbed her wrists trying to keep her where she was.

My wolf instincts wanted more but my thoughts wanted to put her down before this got out of hand.

I heard Willow screaming into our bond, "Please, let go! I am trying to fight this heat. I will not go along with it. Fight your instincts too! Please, Brayden! I know you would not purposely hurt me."

I felt my eyes go black as I fought with my inner instincts. Was I still standing? Is Willow okay?

Goddamn motherfucking bastard!

I will not back down until I get myself to let go. I heard how intoxicating it is to smell your mate in heat, but this was worse than how our normal pack described it. It must be worse because of the alpha lineage.

Now that Willow was fully marked from both her mates it sent her into heat with the full moon coming tonight there was no way for her to escape it. We just needed to get through tonight and then the pull won't be as strong as it is now.

Not knowing how this moment would end I could not fathom taking my thoughts towards how tonight would end. Instead, I tried to get the feeling in my hands. I felt them twitch.

Twitching was not going to cut it. I needed control. Fuck this! I let out a scream and had no clue if it would be heard but I needed to let out my frustration.

A sudden hold on my body came swinging back at full force when I felt an excruciating pain in my groin.

I regained full control of my hands. Finally! Only hoping that Willow was alright for if she was not, I would never forgive myself.

I reached for my groin to protect it from further damage as I dropped like a boulder onto the ground. What the- "Fuck!" I screamed.
