Chapter 235
“No. No, I don’t believe you.” Ember said after several seconds of silence.
She turned around, her face turned towards the door as though she might storm through it and leave Brandon and I to our own defenses. She didn’t, though. Her hesitation wasn’t just written across her face but was also in her posture. In the way she stood with her arms folded over her chest, her foot tapping incessantly against the concrete floor.
I needed to say something, because if Ember left, I had a feeling I wouldn’t be here when she finally returned.
“Why would I lie?” I asked her, truly wanting to understand.
She scoffed, shaking her head at the door.
I was met with a scathing eye roll when she spun on her heel. “Are you really asking me that? What a stupid question.
You’re lying because you want me to turn against Freya.”
“As if that would work.” Brandon muttered.
I sent him a warning glare which he attempted to shrug at, but it was hard to do so when you were bound to the wall by the fiery touch of silver.
“If that was even a possibility, wouldn’t I have started with that the second you came into the room?” I countered, pulling Ember’s attention away from her idiotic mate and back onto me.
“It doesn’t matter. Tessa’s probably rotting away in one of your cells, being tortured for information.” She snapped, her eyes flaring with magic.
There was a hint of vulnerability in her voice, a crack in her armor that I could use to my advantage. Clearly, she and Tessa were all one another had. Ember was stubborn, that much I could tell up front. She’d never believe me outright.
“You’re wrong, but if it helps fuel your hatred for us, you can go ahead and keep thinking that.” I replied indifferently.
The air in this dingy basement began to heat, radiating from Ember like she was our personal fireplace. Instead of the crisp scent of a bonfire, the air smelt of charred apples and burnt cinnamon.
“You’re insane, then. She’ll slit your mate’s throat in his sleep.” She replied.
If she was trying to goad me, it wouldn’t work. I was running on limited energy as is and I wasn’t nearly foolish enough to waste it screaming at her.
This was my one and only shot, and I needed to take it.
I chuckled humorlessly. “Yeah, I doubt that. She’s got her hands full already with Zeke. Unlike you, she hasn’t explicitly stated what she wants, but I have a feeling she’d like to keep her mate too. I’m not saying she hasn’t seen the inside. of a cell. She has, but that’s not where she is currently. Oh, and we didn’t torture her. Actually, I gave her a choice.”
Ember narrowed her eyes into two small. slits. “A choice? What kind of choice?”
“I told her to pick a side: mine or Freya’s.”
“What did she say?” She pressed.
