Chapter 24

Alyssa’s POV

            I looked up to see Chase’s reaction and he looked back at me with rage filled face. Was he mad at me for telling him that? He could die because of me. He probably didn’t believe me when I told him that before, but now he does and is angry at me for telling him?

            He reached his hand down and wiped away tears with surprising gentleness, just like my mother did all those years ago.

            “I’m going to kill him!” He yelled and abruptly got up. I let out a sigh of relief that he wasn’t mad at me, then what he said finally registered in my mind.

            “No!” I yelled and grabbed his hand before he could storm off.

            “Alyssa, let me go,” he growled and started to lightly tug his hand from mine. I held on tight vowing not to let him go.

            “Chase, you need to calm down, you’re not thinking straight,” I told him soothingly. I couldn’t let him try and kill the king. I had no doubt that he could kill him, but if he did we would never know where he was keeping Evaline. The other vampire could also stop him before he succeeded and I couldn’t bear the thought of him getting killed.

Chase’s POV

            I was practically seeing red. I can’t believe that he did that to Alyssa. I wanted to march over there and snap his neck. Then again, I wouldn’t immediately kill him, I would make him suffer just like he did to Alyssa and her family all these years.

            Alyssa had latched onto my hand and wouldn’t let go. Couldn’t she tell that I was just trying to help her? Once he is gone all of her problems would disappear. I couldn’t bring back her father, but I would make sure the king paid for what he did to her.

            “Chase!” she said tugging on me arm, “Think about Evaline. If you kill him we will never know where he keeps her. What do you think has stopped me from doing so all these years? We have to find her first before we can go after him.”

            What she was saying was finally breaking through my rage crazed brain. She was right if I killed him we wouldn’t know where he kept Evaline. Someone would probably kill her before we could get to her too.

            Trying to calm myself down I sat back down beside her. She let out a sigh of relief and I wrapped my arms around her protectively. I kissed her lightly on the lips.
