SKYLA.
He smiles as he pulls back. “You were born to be darkness, to be by my side in this vision of the future.
Do you understand?” he hums.
No! I don’t care if there’s darkness in me. I am not evil.
I will ever kill them. I will never hurt them. I won’t.
Royce… please…
“Of course, I understand.” I scoff, surprising even myself at how normal I sound.
Royce!
Fuck! Dad! Mama!
Bastet! Where are you?
Dante… please…
‘Avoid him…’ Bastet’s words from earlier make my stomach flip.
‘You will destroy him.’ Dante’s chilling words also return with vengeance, and it suddenly feels hard to
breathe.
What have I done?
Please help me, someone… anybody…
“Sky!”
My heart leaps as Royce’s voice reaches my ear and I turn far slower than my mind wants me to.
He’s here!
“Remember what you need to do,” Aleric whispers, caressing my cheek before he slides his arm
around my waist and, to my horror, I place my hand on his chest.
Don’t touch me!
Fuck, I don’t want to touch you!
I feel sick before Royce’s scent hits me, and with it, not only does my heart skip a beat, but I feel a ray
of hope flit into the dark place that I’m pulled into.
Please don’t misunderstand this.
Royce…
He’ll know, right?
“I’m afraid we are going to have to tell him the truth,” Aleric says, this time much louder.
He wants him to hear.
Royce comes into view. He’s a blur until he comes to a stop right in front of us, taking us both by
surprise, lightning crackling around his hands.
“How dare you hurt her!” He snarls, his eyes are blazing and the temperature drops. A blinding bolt of
lightning spreads from his hand as he rips me from Aleric, slamming him against the wall.
“No!” I shout as I find myself pushing Royce away with full force. He’s thrown against the far wall and I
remember the extra strength I have attained recently.
Oh, how I wish I hadn’t… but it’s obvious Royce wasn’t expecting me to intervene. He gets to his feet
within seconds sending a bolt of lightning at Aleric,
“No!” I shout as Aleric chuckles. Royce’s eyes widen as he diverts the lightning away, missing me by
seconds.
I stand in front of Aleric protectively, my heart thudding.
Royce brushes his hair back slowly, looking shocked.
“Sky… step aside,” he says, a glint of confusion in those gorgeous eyes. “What are you doing?”
His heart is thudding as he closes the gap between us, but I raise my hand.
“Stay back…” I whisper, as Aleric steps forward, about to wrap his arm around me when Royce grabs
my arm with lightning speed and pulls me away from him before Aleric can even touch me.
Please take me away.
“Back the fuck off!” Royce snarls, sending a few killer sharp shards of ice at Aleric.
“Don’t!” I scream, as Aleric raises a barrier of fire and I rip out of Royce’s hold.
“You back off, he’s my mate Royce…. We’re mates!” I growl as I look at Aleric
And I wish you weren’t.
He tilts his head, smirking.
“See?” He says cockily, but all I can focus on is the violent thudding of Royce’s heart and the snippets
of pain and hurt that he’s trying so hard to reign in. He looks at me as if he doesn’t believe me.
“No. That’s a fucking lie. He isn’t your mate,” He says, making me want to break down.
This is a sick game…
“What have you done to her!?” he snarls, advancing on Aleric.
“I have done nothing… only fate has sided with me. Even the goddess gave me something she didn’t
give you. You wanted Skyla… I wanted to be king… oh I guess I’ll settle. She may have made you the
Solaris king, but she gave me the Lycan Princess as my mate. Tell me Royce, who got the better
deal?” he taunts.
I know I’m not worthy of Royce… and call me selfish, but I want him, want him, only him.
Royce’s eyes snap between us. Strands of his hair fall in front of his face, electricity crackling
dangerously.
It’s obvious he came running to find me, but for what? For me, to protect the fucking snake.
“Regardless of whether you are fated or not … She chose me.” Royce says with such confidence that it
makes my core clench.
Always.
I’ll always choose you and you alone.
Fuck, you’re the only one for me.
“Actually… I don’t.” I say.
My heart squeezes and I feel angry at myself.
How can I do this to him?
His eyes widen slightly as I slowly turn.
“What they say about fated mates… it’s true nothing can compare.” I say, looking into the eyes of the
man I love.
Can you see my pain?
Can you hear my plea for help?
Where is my strength?
He doesn’t move, but I see the flash of hurt in his eyes.
“Stay away from me, Royce.”
“He’s blackmailing you. I don’t know how, but I know he is. Tell me the truth, Love, and I will fix it.”
I scoff. “Please Royce, there is no blackmail. I want him, not you.”
Aleric smirks and Royce’s eyes flash. A powerful blast of wind pushes us back and the next thing I
know, he has his hand around Aleric’s neck.
“Listen to her, Royce. She’s telling you the truth.” He is so relaxed that I wonder exactly how much
confidence he has in himself…
Goddess…
“I Skyla Silara Rossi, reject you,” my beautiful king… “Royce Jonathan Arden as my mate, Alpha, and
King,” I whisper. I gasp as pain tears through me. For a moment I can’t breathe, clutching my chest as I
look at Royce.
Now, this is the pain of rejection. I gasp as I clutch my chest.
Aleric throws him off him, his eyes glinting with hatred, and I rush to his side despite the pain in my
chest.
My body was programmed to serve him and him alone, despite wanting to break down and rip my heart
out.
I don’t want him to hurt Royce anymore. I look at him as he gets to his feet. His heartbeat is irregular as
he tries to compose himself. I rejected him… the pain he must be feeling… I’m so fucking sorry, Royce.
Please Royce go.
“Leave him. Let’s return to the hall and share the good news.” I say, looking into Aleric’s eyes.
“Skyla… listen to me,” Royce whispers softly as he gets to his feet.
He’s in pain. The stabbing pain from my rejection is stabbing me in my chest but…
“There’s nothing to hear. Accept my rejection.”
Our eyes meet and I know he’s searching for an answer, one that is clear he will never find.
When he seems to realise there’s nothing in my eyes, he frowns.
“I told you… if I mark you, my mark will never be removed, because I will never mark another… And
although, I once thought if you decide to choose your fated when the time comes I’ll let you go if that is
what you truly want. But I can’t, especially not to someone far beneath you. I won’t accept your
rejection. Not like this. Not for him…” he says quietly.
Good.
I’m sorry I rejected you, I didn’t mean it.
“Then I’ll just mark her. After all, a fated mate can indeed remove the mark of a chosen mate.” Aleric
says mockingly.
“I don’t know what you’ve done, or how you are blackmailing her, but I know my girl and she’s mine,”
Royce says, and I scoff.
“You’re mistaken,” I say. He looks at me and I know he’s trying to mind link, but I simply look away.
“Think whatever… but I choose him.”
“You don’t look surprised to see me alive,” Royce says to him suddenly.
“Of course not. Not at all.” He says, but his face darkens. “Don’t try to distract me, Royce. It will not
work.”
The sound of footsteps running reaches us, and we turn to see Charlotte there, her heart thundering.
“What’s going on?” she asks confused as she comes to a stop, her fists clenching when she sees
Aleric.
“Not much. I just found my mate and I’m about to mark him.” I say sounding like a fucking bitch, as my
body once again moves on its own and I wrap my arm around Aleric’s neck.
“Oh yeah, baby, just like that,”he whispers, making me sick.
From the corner of my eyes, I see Royce make to move forward, but a surge of flames burst up around
us as my canines elongate.
“Don’t do it Sky…” Charlotte’s voice whispers.
But I’m not in control. My mind is here, but that is as far as my control goes. I’m trying! I’m fucking
trying! I will do anything but mark him!
Please, Royce…. Rip me away from him, please…
His arms wrap around my waist as the voice of Bastet comes in my head.
‘Mark him.’
Mark him?
I don’t have a choice anyway..
“Sky…” His husky voice fills my ears, sexy yet I can sense him trying to control his emotions, but
Aleric’s crushing hold is stronger, on my body and on my mind. I’m sorry Royce…
I’m sorry for hurting you…
I sink my teeth into Aleric’s neck and he growls in approval. I feel the pain as I almost fully destroy the
bond with the one I love, and create another with someone who I hate to the core.
There’s a rush of sparks through the bond, but there is nothing pleasant in them and they just make me
feel sick and disgusted. I can still feel my link, albeit faint, to Royce since he hasn’t accepted my
rejection and I know that if Aleric marks me back… That bond will automatically be abolished…
Please don’t let it come to that. Fuck, please.
I can feel Royce’s eyes on me, but I don’t dare turn, because it will simply kill me inside…
